Gravity Falls

I like how, in Journal 3, Ford's first impression of Soos was that Soos must've been some sort of mutated, hairless gerbil, and it took Soos's insistence and attempts to physically prove it.

In addition to the issues others have already pointed out, I'll also add that it makes no sense on Bill's end to wait. He's pretty gung-ho about things he wants to do. And he's impulsive.

• Mabel: Take me and let my brother go!
• Bill: INTERESTING OFFER. LET ME THINK ABOUT - BOOM! (vaporizes Dipper instead) HA! THAT WAS HILARIOUS! YOU SHOULD'VE SEEN YOUR FACES!
• Mabel: :O
• Bill: YEAH, THEY LOOKED KINDA LIKE THAT!

It's established in both the episode and the Journal that it's a naturally-occurring boundary. Throughout the Multiverse, there are certain hot spots that act as Weirdness Magnets. Ford discovered this during his journeys after he was pulled through the Universe Portal. Everything from the UFO to Bill were drawn to Gravity Falls because it's one such hot spot.

It's a similar principle to what Buffy The Vampire Slayer had with its Hellmouth; a point that just naturally attracts the unnatural.

Yeah, a few pages back, I cracked several of the more interesting ciphers from the Journal.

So I've been thinking about ideas for a circus AU, and I was wondering who should have which circus acts.

My ideas were that Stan would be the ring master, Soos would be the strongman, I'm not sure about Dipper, and either Mabel or Wendy would be the human cannonball.

Any ideas?

He could be the water-squirting clown.

Or the guy that does this side-show:

By the way, if you like the irreverent and syncopated humor in Gravity Falls, you'd love the show I just linked. It's Malcolm In The Middle, and Dipper could totally have grown up to be this kid.

NONONONONO! Dont watch that! You WILL regret it!

The same way you regret reading Tvtropes.

I like Malcolm in the Middle. It's pretty hilarious. Malcolm is a bit of an insufferable know it all in later seasons though.

Has anyone noticed how during the final confrontation with Bill that The flames in Stan's mind are the same hue as Bill's fire?

Here's a fanfic I read recently. I think it's pretty good, and the characters are mostly in-character.

On a side note, my favorite part about Bill's last scene isn't when Stan punches him, it's when he orders him to look at him. I know Bill's pretty much fucked at that moment, but the idea of making demands of a creature like Bill gives me the shivers. It's like if someone walked up to Cthulu and said "Look at me when I'm talking to you, you squid-faced fuck!"

okay but honestly though, that would've been a hilarious scene, if also horrifying

Imagine if Soos managed to somehow put Giffany in this

The comments in that video are repulsive.

Congratulations, you inspired me to read Youtube comments.

... I'm seeing more "hilarious" here than "repulsive", but whatever.

I just got Journal 3 for Christmas.

I saw for the first time (because the library I initially borrowed it from has a habit of taping books with dust jackets up so that they don't get lost) that Old Man McGucket wrote his blueprints for his inventions on the back of the dust jacket of the journal. How do you think Ford reacted? I also found out that McGucket kept his prize banjo collection in a compartment of the Gideonbot. How do you think that must've went down with Gideon if and when he discovered it?

The dust jacket isn't canon, I don't think. I'm fairly certain it's just a dust jacket.

Especially because it has brass corners printed on it.

Yeah, the dust jacket's mainly there so you can choose whether you want a pristine Journal #3 or a "worn down by age" version.

(shields eyes from holy spoilers that would melt my newbie face if seen)

GUYS. GUYS. HOLY SHIT. PAUSE YOUR DISCOURSE OR FANWORKS OR WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. I'VE BEEN LIVEBLOGGING IN THE TRASH HEAP AND I JUST COMPLETED SEASON 1. HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTT

I HAVE BEEN SO, SO SPOILED ON WHAT IS TO COME, BUT I AM SO EXCITED AND AM HOLDING MYSELF BACK FROM WATCHING SEASON 2 ALL NIGHT

Congratulations!

What did you think?

Here's an AU I came up with yesterday.

Basically, it's one where Weirdmageddon basically went the same way, but due to how long she stayed in the bubble, Mabel was transformed into a sentient mass of shape shifting bugs, though keeping Mabel's consciousness and personality

I was thinking of calling it either the Hivemind AU or the Assimilated AU. What do you think?

Why a mass of shape shifting bugs?

Well, that's...original...

Are we sure he's not hcobb?

Hcobb has been banned for a while now, I doubt it's him.
