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…

Here's my favorite dadneto fic right now:

It's about kid!peter in x men dofp. It's ongoing, and updates pretty consistently from what I've seen.

It also has literally everything I love in x men fics, like:

- Protective logan

- Dadneto

- Peter is the main character

- Cherik

- And everybody is in character

(This isn't my fic btw, that honor belongs to setmeonfireplease)

Love the artstyle (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤

Ford doodles. He is my everythang.
