Fiddauthor - Blog Posts

Fiddauthor in fanon is often doomed toxic unrequited type yaoi, and I DO love some angst, but y'all forget how much Ford loves that guy

"His brilliant mind and amusing quirks have made this task infinitely more enjoyable"

"One of the kindest hearts I've ever seen"

Sorry. From DAY ONE being roommates in college, he ran up to Fiddleford (after he'd been crying and wanting to leave) and was like "I won't sleep until I prove your theory!!"

He was so excited to work with him and be best friends. The adoration is unreal. Fuckass BILL got in his head and turned him against Fiddleford. They were so sweet to each other, and Ford wasn't selfish from the start, but Bill went all Frodo and Gollum on him and Ford screwed up bigtime because of it

"I'm sorry Fiddleford" had been on loop in his head for 30 years, I'm not over that

they're so doomed yaoi i hate them

Scenes from my fic https://archiveofourown.org/works/63162631

Ew look. Art

False Prophet au:

It's a Greek mythology AU where instead of the strange and anomalies, Stanford is a Greek mythology history and mythos nerd who moves to Greece to study the gods closely, and Bill is a stand-in for Apollo (he said he's his sun, his everything), Stanford is captivated and gets dreams of the god reaching out to him, becoming Bill's prophet. However, Bill lies about everything (tee hee) and is more of a mischievous deity, wanting to release some of his other friends from Tartarus, using Stanford to try and accomplish this under the guise of a prophecy he has to fulfill since it's his fate. This scenario definitely involves some religious trauma from moving from being Jewish to Hellenistic, as Fiddleford helps Ford find prophetic relics and ruins to help him fulfill his 'fate' by being a architect instead of an engineer. They still get into trouble with monsters, but now they're facing Greek mythos creatures like sirens, centaurs, and furies. Instead of the gremoblin, Fidds gets partially petrified by a Medusa perhaps, and Ford has to find a cure, which makes him more paranoid and worried. Instead of the memory gun, Ford finds his own deity to forget the things plaguing him, leading to cult time. Maybe pyramid Steve acts as a sort of Hypnos placeholder, making Fidds have wonderful dreams where he gets everything he wants, allowing him to weave his own tale while snipping away at his memories, as equivalent exchange after all suggests. In this AU, he'd essentially act like a narcoleptic insane hermit, experiencing brief phases of mental clarity when awake. Instead of the Society of the Blind Eye, there's the Society of the Closed Eye, symbolizing sleep and closing one’s eye to reality and truth, with the motto: "After all, why be awake when you can have everything you want in a dream?" People don’t know about the memory trading part, of course; they just feel 'lighter' and see it as spiritual relief. There could be a subplot where he forgets his wife and son after being involved for a bit, leading to a breakdown when he sees his dream journal with notes about his perfect marriage in dreams, but of course, one nap later, that's mysteriously gone—can't have your most devoted follower question his faith after all. Ford remains oblivious to all of this, like the socially blind man he is, assuming his friend is just lazy. Steve and Bill are rivals as deities, with Steve sending 'prophetic' dreams to Fidds to contradict whatever mission Ford is given, adding to the drama. This might all take place in the late 1970s and 1981, but I might date it back if needed. Bill is a Titan masquerading as a God, and the rest of the henchmaniacs are Titans too.

Just silly doodles

Also if you squint so slightly you can see Fiddauthor

Some very raw sketches from university. Mayhaps, one of them gonna be finished one day and turned into a digital art...

(do not pay attention to the letters at the corners, it was drawn during the classes, heh)

<<Soon the spring will come, bringing it's beautiful warm nights, blooming nature and scent of refreshing...>>

Bill Cipher: "Did you know you talk in your sleep? Tell me, though, who's 'Fiddleford'?"

Ford: "He's my closest friend."

...

Bill: "ANYWAYS—"

(Incorrect Quote sourced from the EPIC song "Love in Paradise")

A Fanfic Writer Appreciation Day rec-list

So, I heard people are celebrating fanfic authors today, and I wanted to take the time to share some of my all-time favorites! (all are Gravity Falls)

Blind Faith, by @pinesinthewoods

Behold, the fic that firmly dragged me into the Gravity Falls fandom! I remember scrolling through GF fics on Ao3 for the first time, and this was one of the very first I read. It’s dark, has heaps of glorious Stan twin angst, and still lingers in my mind to this day.

Towards the Sun, by @pinesinthewoods and @notthistimespock

Out of every single fic I’ve ever read, this one succeeds the most in getting inside the character’s heads. A bit of a canon divergence where, to save Stanley, Ford must confront his brother’s darker side within the mindscape. (Admission: I cried on multiple occasions while reading this.)

Flat Dreams, by PengyChan

I once told myself I’d never feel pity for a triangle. I was bitterly wrong. An amazing imagining of Bill’s childhood, early life, and rise to power… with lots of inspiration from Edwin A. Abbott’s Flatland. 

Stars and Trees, by jikanet_tanaka

A set of small scenes and vignettes of Stan’s life, from childhood to present. All of them are focused on the theme of family, and how Stanley relates to the idea over time. They’re very feels-y and sweet, and characterize Stan so well! 

The Wind in Visions, by @the-stan-twin and @the-ford-twin

Ah, where do I start with this? Probably the most pure examples of Fiddauthor and Mabifica I can think of. I adore the heaps and heaps of Pines family bonding in this and the slice-of-life feel it has… and yet there’s this feeling of something serious building in the horizon, and wow, I can’t wait to see what happens next with that!

Blue Bayou, by The_Lionheart (@icefeels)

The most fascinating take I’ve seen on Ford’s multiverse years. It features a very well developed OC, (honestly one of the best I’ve seen in this fandom), who becomes Ford’s traveling partner. Their interplay is equal parts hilarious and emotional at times, and is very deep without seeming forced. I really recommend this- it could use SO much more love! (It only has about 100 hits… and that needs to be changed ASAP! :D)

The Triboelectric Effect, by @aroford

An amazing what-if centering around the idea of Stan and Ford accidentally swapping bodies on the electron carpet, way back in ‘82…
