Mama N Her Babies

This is how Dreamscapers ended. I was there, I was Bill’s bow tie.

Please don’t let this flop this is the best thing I’ve ever drawn so far lmao

Y'all, the idea of Shapeford has wormed its way into my head and fundamentally changed my brain chemistry at this point. I mean, hear me out real quick!

Okay, okay, strap in cause this is a bit of a longer tangent than I usually yap about. I promise I'll make it worth your while QwQ

Firstly, considering I imagine this happening on the first day of Weirdmageddon (or at the very least some time very early in it), imagine what lengths the Pines' family would need to go in order to actually beat Bill this time. They can't pull the ol' switcheroo with Standford in the shape he's in now. Literally! I've had ideas on what this could lead to, but I've been swirling it around indecisively for about the entire time I have been growing this concept. Gotta let that baby cook for a few more days I guess XD

Then there is the fact that Ford being no longer human is, by all accounts, far more of a freak than he could have ever imagined himself as. And, depending on how you think about it, it really is a self-fulfilling prophecy at this point. Hell, to drive the point home, he actually has five fingers for once (since I imagine Euclidean's naturally have 4 fingers so by all accounts Ford is still Polydactyly) but that's the least freakish thing about him by human standards. He eats out of the same whole that has his eyes, he speaks and yet has no mouth, and he is the farthest thing from anything mammalian with his physical makeup. Even worse than that, there isn't anything he can exactly do to reverse the damage at this point. He's just a shape now as his human body was obliterated beyond truly fixing. So he'll just have to live with this new form, or, ya know, go crazy trying to find a way to reverse it.

Furthermore, while I like to imagine he would try softening the blow by just telling Dipper and Mable how Bill simply turned him into a shape for entertainment, having to admit to Stanley that the real reason he can't simply be turned back is because he was by all accounts killed and reincarnated as something completely different has so much angst potential. Like, fr fr, just think of Stanley realizing Staneford actually died, and imagine the distrust and hurt he'd feel considering their rocky brotherly bond to begin with and knowing the only reason his brother is 'back' is because Bill basically went 'nuh-uh' and turned Standford into this thing. Imagine the possible guilt of never truly reconciling with said human brother before whatever he is now.

Gosh, I just realized, would Standford never be able to leave Gravity Falls then due to the barrier? Would his weirdness make it so that the whole 'going to sail the seas with your twin brother' dream Stanley had is just dead in the water?

Also, a part of me is just made so delightfully ill at imagining Standford having untapped potential power in this form but being unable to access it due to his own metal barrier of trying to be less freakish and more 'human'. Whatever that means to him by this point.

Does this make any sense? Am I actually cooking? Y'all please, I feel like I'm only one this invested in the idea of a Shape Standford Pines and it has me in a chokhold

Anyways, this New Normal AU has been on my mind, and I just needed to dig out some of the brain worms to release the pressure in my head. Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk, and maybe expect some more doodles and art down the line cause I haven't even finished the possibilities.

Stanford Pines really is the character ever. He's in less than half of the main series. His mere existence is what drives the plot forward. He's got six fingers in each hand and the brain power of a cryptid obsessed Steven Hawkins. He is referred to as "having the ego of a king and the self esteem issues of a circus freak". He doesn't know how to socialize. He's canonically catnip for cryptids and weirdness. He got played like a fiddle by a triangle of fenomenal cosmic powers and got tricked into almost starting the apocalypse but then turned it around and decided to become said triangle's biggest problem. He survived in places no human should be for 30 years and most of it was pure spite. He made the triangle care about him so much one way or another, that when he cut the triangle out of his life, the triangle got blackout drunk and forgot his mom has been dead for trillions of years. He's got brother issues the size of China. He's a barely restrained mad scientist and kind of a jerk sometimes. He cares about his family more than anything. He plays DnD. He thinks lighting his face on fire is the best way to shave. He is canonically considered a silver fox.

Doodle dump!

Some Mystery Twins interactions with their Grunkle Stan after he was brought back, I can imagine that they climb on top of him and his wheelchair a lot like little racoons (compfy chair...) (THEY FINALLY GET GLASSES FOR HIS BLIND ASS)

They eepy... . .. . .......

Antagonist Fiddleford gets thrown to county jail after the whole cult fiasco. He's in his jail era <3

Don't worry though, the others give him plenty of visits (and Mabel felt bad so she makes him a new cane after they broke his other one while running away from him, it's disgustingly glittery :))

REMEMBER WHEN I SAID HE WAS UNHEALTHY AND BARELY TOOK CARE OF HIMSELF WHILE LOOKING FOR STAN??? HE GAINS WEIGHT‼️‼️‼️‼️ HEALTHY FORD MY BELOVED ❤️❤️💥⁉️❗️⁉️❤️💥💳💳💳💳💳💥💥💥 [THE CROWD CHEERS UPROARIOUSLY]
