Ya, Gravity Falls!! I Think That Younger Pines Looks Like Yin Yang

Just as a bit of a funny, if the twins end up spending 10 years trying to make something together is Stan still going to have his mustache era? And if so what’s Ford going to look like since he isn’t doing his college sticky note short shorts era?

+10 years to StansCo they would be 28-30, so I imagine at this point Ford would have used his money to start his own lab while Stan would hold down the fort as CEO and Co-Founder.

and of course they'd go sailing when they find the time ^u^

I think Stanley being more relatable may stem from the difference between his and Ford's trauma after they separate the first time.

Ford goes through a lot of terrifying shit because of him messing with the fae and a literal dream demon. His mind, body, soul aren't his anymore. He pushed away his best friend in favor of Bill, and both him & Fiddleford are worse off because of it. The portal incident. Being sent spiraling into the portal himself. Being an interdimensional outlaw for 30+ years, constantly in survival mode. All of this trauma that stems from supernatural origins, or straight up from him being manipulated the way he was.

Stan, on the other hand, his trauma is all stemmed from real life shit that happens all the time irl. Being homeless, surviving by any means, being kicked out for stupid reasons. Heists gone awry turned into hell to pay. Constantly changing names and skipping towns. Always on the run. Never settling down until his literal lowest point, expecting to die soon, expecting to get killed, until a postcard from his estranged brother he hasn't talked to in 10+ years asking for help. Stealing food and driving away as fast as he can. Mistakes turning into life or death situations. Chewing his way outta a fucking car trunk. Conning his way through life because he has no other choice in his situation. And then continuing to con and scam because it's all he knows. And everything I haven't mentioned because that list is a long one.

Stanley's trauma has such an impact because that shit happens, irl, to a lot of people. Being homeless, getting kicked out, turning to crime to survive on the streets. Overindulgence. Fucked up shit that I won't mention right now.

This isn't to discredit or dismiss Ford's trauma, no, that shit is horrifying.

I just wanted to write this out, especially as someone who's been in similar situations as Stan (being homeless), because I think about a lot and wondered why he was so more relatable to me than Ford is.

This may just be me, idk. Take this as you will. Jumbled thoughts and all that.

Break day! Time to find a good place to do arson put up a bonfire and just relax together :]

you can see that the script originally had ford building an anti-gravity machine for the science fair (which i guess acts as foreshadowing to the portal?), but the sun lightbulb feels like it would've connected to the opening of stanchurian candidate....

Stanley Photograoher Pines where he takes pictures of dangerous things. The more dangerous the more he's paid for it afterall, he's a freelancer and found a broken camera that he fixed himself.

It all began with photographing the gangs he was in or near by to and slowly began to expand to his love for adventure. He will snap pictures of these creatures and almost everyone loves them whenever they believe it to be real ("finally! Proof!") Or believe he edits and makes some good fake creatures ("an artist, truly..")

How does he take pictures of such dangerous creatures you may ask... well, if you were to peek in his little secret photo album you'd see him posing with them, drinking and playing poker, having dinner with their families and even photographing their weddings. Yeah, he's friends with them.

Enter Stanford Pines, anomaly fanatic who just discovered an anonymous photograoher who seems to know all about these anomalies.

I can’t get over the line delivery in these

Star, understand who he is.

Backstory:

Fast rundown on Stars backstory. He lived with Ford and Bill (With his other two siblings ofc) till he was 5 and Ford and Bill got divorced. Star got moved to the Ruehl household, he forgot the family he used to have and learned to live with this new high achieving and abusive family. As years have gone on, he has learned to be a "perfect child" basically just masks, then in august he met Whiskey they made a deal. On his 14th birthday he lost his left eye, and started to notice his similarities to Ford, questioning everything about his life after finding his "powers". Then he met @aspotofteabillcipher his dad shaking his whole world that has driven him father down a self-loathing path. Appearance human first and dream demon second:

Star is 14 year old, pronouns he/him/they.

Star has a short young Stanford Pines looking haircut with his brown hair, a red strand in the front on the same side as his eyepatch, square glasses, a white eyepatch/bandage covering his right eye, dark red turtleneck or a black space themed T-shirt, a black trench-coat, black work-boots, and black cargo pants.

When Star is using his preferred form, he is around 1 foot tall, he still has his glasses but there is only one lenes, he resembles a star with one eye that is a orangish yellow with a tinted red top, and he has slim short black limbs with a reddish tint and a long tail with three points.

Rules:

Star and me are both minors so be polite and keep that in mind.

Swearing is allowed but no slurs and don't be excessive.

NSFW art or roleplay is not allowed KEEP IT OUTA HERE!

Anyway, meet Star and have a good time with this goober.

domesticated Ford Au Fanart I made :3 owner is @jellyskink

😭

Unresolved

I like to think that Stanley used to process things through play and art. I headcanon he was one to scribble out in random pieces of papers, tiny poems and drawings and so on and eventually made a little journal with them.

Unfortunately, some things don't change even when he gets his happy ending.
