* 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/SwappedRoles aspects; and even those are not clear cut. However, the 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; sometimes they are irredeemable monsters and [[SerialKiller Serial Killers]]. Sometimes the story will be DarkerAndEdgier, sometimes it is BloodierAndGorier as well, and sometimes it is close to the canon series' tone.

As a FanVerse, anyone in the community can contribute their own stories to the AU. Aside from the vague mirror aspect of the characters, the AU’s story and setting is very open to interpretation (even the twins’ antagonism varied depending on the creator, from redeemable secondary villains to psychopathic murderers who do it ForTheEvulz, ''even the names of the characters will vary depending on the creator''[[note]]Pacifica Southeast and Pacifica Northwest, Gideon Pines or Gideon Gleeful, the Pines twins or the Gleeful twins...[[/note]]).

* BewareTheSillyOnes: Some scenarios have this universe’s version of Weirdmageddon happening when Will finally snaps from the abuse inflicted by the twins, and decides to use his dream demon powers to their full extent.

* ExtremeDoormat: Will, very much so.

* FauxAffablyEvil: The twins, during their magic shows, and to Gideon and Pacifica.

* ItRunsInTheFamily: Here, Stan is a greedy ringmaster who ropes the twins into a money-making scheme once he sees their affinity for the amulets. Ford is a brilliant evil magician with a connection to Will. Not to mention the twins themselves.

It follows the formula of a traditional MirrorUniverse in which the personality traits of all the main characters are flipped. In an alternate universe, Dipper and Mabel Gleeful are half-identical twin psychics who run the Tent of Telepathy, using their magical abilities to terrorize the town, conduct evil research, and even succeed in enslaving the meek dream demon Will Cipher. Pacifica Southeast and Gideon Pines are the mystery duo. Some creators go one step further, depicting Wendy and Robbie switching personalities, Stan as an evil magician, etc.
