Oooh, How About Stan And Pacifica Bonding?

Oooh, how about Stan and Pacifica bonding?

What could a 60-something years old conman and a 12 year old heiress possibly bond over?

(The answer is daddy issues. Many, many daddy issues.)

Heck yes, excellent addition. I'm always a sucker for Stan acting protective/paternal with the kids.

Hmmm I am usually not much of a shipper but: Pacifica's parents want her to get together with a rich boy when she's a teen to help them get their social standing back, but she sticks by Dipper regardless. Her parents give her the ultimatum to dump him or they 'dump' her, expecting her to comply. She doesn't, and gets kicked out. The Pines' basically adopt her after that (the whole thing hit's way to close to home for Stan and Ford).

Hold on... I’m okay... I’m fine, I’m fine...

She’s too proud to tell anyone about the situation, even after her parents kick her out. Stan finds her sleeping on a bench after she accidentally gets locked out of the diner (where she’d been staying). He takes her straight home to the Shack. Ford has to stop him and Dipper from keying the Northwests’ cars. Dipper stays up comforting her and lets her stay in his bed while he bunks on the couch.

Re: Wings: Maybe this strays too far from the theme, but I can see Pacifica with bat wings. Because bats are traditionally associated with evil, but are not inherently so, like her status as a Northwest. :V

Ohh, that's an interesting idea symbolically yeah! :o

At first I was thinking of making her have peacock wings, because they're flamboyant and stereotypically kept by rich people in gardens. But then I realized female's don't have interesting feathers. So, I started thinking of different kinds of songbirds. The stereotypical dainty and pretty bird kept in a too-small cage and more of an ornament than a companion.

Not sure if I'll go for animals other than birds, if I do I could imagine her looking quite elegant in white bat wings (albino or ghost bat maybe?). If her parents don't have bat wings, it could maybe even be a plot point that she's somewhat 'nocturnal' and way more comfortable in the dark, but her parents are forcing her to be out in daytime and bright light anyways so they can show her off, and it's creating some very unhealthy routines.

It's finally starting to feel like summer here! So I wanted to make something bright and colorful for a change from my recent angsty moods. ^^

Head's up, next chapter of The Author of the Journal's will come out tomorrow, not today. Turns out I had more studying to do than expected. :(

Sorry for the delay.

I wanna chill with some sketching before sleep (I've been stuck studying most of today.) Any suggestions?
