I've changed my avatar to Doodle Penni because I think she's adorable. Everyone who knows of my account previously, do not be surprised by the change. It's been coming for a long time. I really needed to be done with the base avatar.
Just some incorrect quotes with the context I've made up for them. Nothing to see here.
Penni, daughter of Ford "shaves with fire" Pines, does not see any other reason than for consumption as to why shaving cream exists.
Penni, realising that she made a bad call with her deal with Bill, and about to enter her paranoia and insomnia arc.
Penni, entering her paranoia and insomnia arc. Dipper doesn't want to admit he's concerned for her.
She's going into politics. Liking sarcasm is the least problematic thing to do.
Penni doesn't have a womb, the same as the rest of the alien fish species. So, she has no reason to understand period products.
Teaching Penni more English is... going well.
Dipper spent too long distrusting Penni (probably about 3 days) to then just get along with her.
Penni took it literally. She loves sarcasm, doesn't understand when it's targeted towards her.
Penni finally thinking that she's actually getting along with Dipper. She's so happy.
This is such an important thing to talk about. I'm British, but because of my obsession with history, I've never liked England, even hated it at points in my life.
I will say that that's an important distinction to make. The British Empire was mostly because of England. Wales was taken over by England for so long, and Scotland never got along with England.
The British Empire is not something to glorify at all.
I think a LOT of the political issues faced by the UK today come from a sense of wanting to get back to “the glory days”. We’ve kind of mythologised the time when Britain “ruled the world”, to the point that it’s a part of our very culture, to the point where it’s kind of treated on culture as our divine right.
I’m British Bengali, and I know the history of Bangladesh. I know how my people suffered under British rule. There wasn’t enough physical a price to pay, back then. Britain ruled a quarter of the world at the cost of very real human lives. They justified it by dehumanising the people they were oppressing.
yeah, the British Empire was cool, like as a concept. But the kind of hunger for international power is a rot at the core of our culture. We never should have ruled over so many, we shouldn’t have imposed ourselves and our values on other cultures. The idea that ANYONE has that right is a problem for any just society.
Most powerful politicians, at least subconsciously, believe that. I actually think most brits believe it, though by no fault of their own. But that belief is leading to more suffering for the people in the country. We have all these politicians more focused on sucking up to America than making any meaningful change.
it’s all a pathetic play for power. If the government were more focused on making lives better for brits than trying to be seen as the empire it once was, we would be in a MUCH Better position. The right are so obsessed with “British culture”, when they’re the ones KILLING the culture in the name of GDP.
:/
Before Ford and Nimirylov started dating:
I decides to draw Penni's picture. Can't draw hands though so it's just her fingers on the picture.
I had fun drawing childishly. I'm imagining she's like 6 in this scene.
Once again, I wish I could draw because I want to make a comic for my Washed Away au that goes like this;
Ford is just doing science stuff in his study or whatever when Penni bounds in excitedly. She's holding a piece of paper, and she asks him if she can show him her drawing of her imaginary friend. He'd smile and nod, only to promptly panic upon seeing the paper.
Because his young daughter, barely more than a toddler, is showing him a drawing of Bill Cipher.
Don't have brain space to write what I want to write down right now but I still have the itch to write something. So, I'm giving the basic summary of the gravity falls au that has been living in my head rent free for the past few weeks.
Basically, I was thinking, revenge is boring. Ford spending those 30 years in the portal trying to destroy Bill is boring. What if, and just trust me on this, he'd actually, like, found a home and made a life in a different universe?
So, Ford's got himself this perfect life that's more peaceful than he ever could've thought was possible for him. He's got an alien husband (the only alternate to gay Ford is aroace Ford) and a little alien child.
Then Stan opens the portal. Ford is torn away from his whole new life and family. Not to mention he'd just have to accept it because opening the portal again would be dangerous. There's so much more angst potential and I need to get this out of my brain and inflicting other people as well.
I know I'm late but I couldn't resist spinning the wheel even if I can't vote in the poll.
That's... yeah. I'd be pretty confused.
okay, okay. Imagine you're watching Gravity Falls for the first time. You watch all the episodes in order EXCEPT one of them is mysteriously left out.
spin this wheel to see which one you skipped
reblogs appreciated!
Can I be honest? I hate that any post where it's purely platonic is labeled aroace. It completely removes the ability for friendship to happen. It gives me the same feeling as people who say that "boys and girls can't be friends". Acting as though deep platonic relationships can only be reached by being aroace removes the importance for everyone to have those deep platonic relationships and it actually encourages the narrative that romance is a must.
Enemies to "I accidentally came across you while you were vulnerable and scared and I'm not a total asshole so I tried to help you" to "accidental mutual uncovering of softer sides and vulnerabilities" to "I can't be mean to you anymore, not out of pity but because it would feel weird betraying that brief truce we had" to "Fine I'll make an effort to be nice to you now I guess" to "actually now that we're not actively hating each other you're not so bad I guess" to "i think we're friends but I'm not going to say that because I'm afraid you're not gonna feel the same way" to "oh you also think we're friends? Great" to lovers
Hm, just, y'know @institute-of-oddology-founder
“Okay, just so we’re clear, a version of me died in your world, and now you want to take me to yours to be a replacement? “That’s right.” “….Don’t you see how messed up that is??”
Just wondering, if I were to sell my tiny Bill Cipher's, would anyone actually be interested? Also, how much would you be willing to pay, because I need to have an idea on how much to charge.
Currently obsessed with Gravity Falls. Cooking up my own AU for it :> Washed Away au.
