History Fanfic / ReverseFallsAU

* GoodParents: Pacifica’s parents are ''far'' nicer and loving here than their canon selves.

* RoleSwapAU: The fanverse is basically this.

* StockholmSyndrome: In some fics, Will ends up developing sympathy for the twins. Either the twins will use this to abuse him more, or they will lapse into LimaSyndrome as well.

* ShesGotLegs: Especially obvious with Reverse!Mabel in her magician outfit. Some fans criticize this HotterAndSexier depiction of a 12-year old. Other fans defend it by aging up Mabel and suggesting the seductiveness is entirely intentional on her part, as a strategy for pulling in larger audiences during their shows.

* MirrorUniverse

%%* PsychoticSmirk: Mabel usually has one of these. Same for Dipper.
%%* RoleSwapAU: The fanverse is basically this.

%%* WaistcoatOfStyle: Dipper’s preferred outfit.

* TheKlutz: Will.
* KnifeNut: Fanon has Mabel as being able to summon blue throwing knives using her amulet.

* PsychoticSmirk: Mabel usually has one of these. Same for Dipper.
* RoleSwapAU: The fanverse is basically this.

* WaistcoatOfStyle: Dipper’s preferred outfit.
* WickedCultured: The Gleeful family.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Will, in his human form. Otherwise it’s blue on top and black on the sides.

Reverse Falls follows the formula of a traditional MirrorUniverse, in which the personality traits of all the main characters are flipped. Most notably, Dipper and Mabel Gleeful are HalfIdenticalTwin psychics who run the Tent of Telepathy, using their magical abilities to [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking terrorize the town, conduct evil research, and hold magic shows]]. They also succeed in enslaving meek dream demon Will Cipher to do their bidding. Meanwhile, Pacifica Southeast, a young hippie, and Gideon Pines, an outsider, form the intrepid mystery duo. Some creators go one step further, depicting Wendy and Robbie switching personalities, Stan as an evil magician, and so on.

* ThemeTune: The twins are frequently associated with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcVv9R1ZR84 Dollhouse]] by Music/MelanieMartinez.

** Sometimes Mabel x Pacifica, where Mabel is a PsychoLesbian [[StalkerWithACrush With a Crush]].

* DependingOnTheAuthor: Despite what this page might imply, the exact nature of the universe varies wildly from person to person. There are some general common features: mostly the general designs of the characters, the DarkerAndEdgier approach, and the MirrorUniverse and SwappedRoles aspects, though even these are not clear cut. Details will change a lot depending of the author's headcanons. The twins' "evilness" varies wildly: sometimes they are redeemable antagonists, with personalities close to canon!Gideon or canon!Pacifica, and sometimes they are irredeemable monsters and {{Serial Killer}}s. Sometimes Stan and Ford are more like Bud Gleeful and sometimes they’re the true BigBad. Sometimes Will is a victim or messing with the twins. Sometimes the story will be DarkerAndEdgier, sometimes it is BloodierAndGorier, and sometimes it is close to the canon series' tone.
