Films I Would Watch With Stanley Pines

Films i would watch with Stanley Pines

and headcanons of his reactions to them

The Blues Brothers:

c'mon two brothers that goof around and run from the cops together? he'd love it

i fear he would laugh so hard he'd cry at the scene where they keep swearing and the nun hits them with the ruler over and over

would crack jokes about how his exes are just like Carrie Fisher's character

Pride and Prejudice (2005)

would complain at first but then get really invested

would lose his shit when Darcy proposes (You had your chance at the cotillion, you!)

would cry when Mr. Bennet talks to Lizzie after giving Darcy his blessing

would be very annoyed with Mr Collins ofc

Blazing Saddles

already one of his favorites probably

would fall out of his chair laughing when Mongo punches the horse

Les Miserable

would relate hard to Jean Valjean

would cry multiple times (me too)

he'd be caught humming Do You Hear The People Sing for days afterwards

My Big Fat Greek Wedding

the big family he always wanted

would love lines like "is okay, I make lamb"

he'd want to get greek food afterwards

might actually try to cure something with windex

guys okay so i was just thinking

one of his lowest moments was the twins debating on leaving the day after they met him…

do you think that’s why he took them to family fishing day and wanted to spend time with them so badly? he wanted them to see that he was a good guy?? STANNNNN 😭😭😭😭

Stan x Reader Headcanons protective/wants you safe (SFW)

(tw: mentions weapons)

installed a security latch on the door at your place and put wooden dowels in the window tracks

insisted on teaching you how to shoot a rifle and throw a solid punch

checks your car's fluids regularly so you won't break down (even though you told him that you check them yourself)

Had Ford build you a little tazer to carry on walks/hikes (Dipper asked when he's getting his)

gave you his old brass knuckles from when his hands were smaller ("You don't have to use 'em, just flash 'em if someone bothers you")

taught you how to hide objects in your clothes close your body so that they don't show at all (works great for sneaking snacks into the movies)

taught you all the things you legally do/don't have to say if you get pulled over

Stan x Reader Headcanons (SFW/Fluff)

I'm a little baby tumblr user and Gravity Falls fan and this is my first post :) I hope you like them

Loves when you cook for him. Has had very few good home cooked meals in his life and considers it a delicacy. Won’t ask you to cook but thanks you every time and tries his best to help when he can. 

Dances with you a lot in the kitchen or on the porch and loves to spin/dip you. He will also give Mabel a turn if she asks.

The type to flick you with the towel or splash water on you while doing the dishes and loves when you do it back. Similarly, you two once got in a water fight with the hose while washing his car. 

Asks for back/head scratches all the time - it’s the only time his body is fully relaxed. His burn scar gets especially itchy.

Will take you up on the roof to stargaze after the kids are asleep. Knows how to find all the constellations - learned star navigation for fun as a kid and used it to pass the time while living in his car. (Finally got to put it to use while sailing with Ford). His favorite constellation is Gemini.

Admitted that he never liked reading (dyslexia) but lets you read aloud to him before bed and gets really invested in the story. 

Can’t sing to save his life but when a romantic song comes on he’ll use a nearby object as a mic and dramatically serenade you.

Says “I love you” as much as he can (to you and the kids, and sometimes even Ford) because for so long he didn’t have anyone to say it to.

Thought I would share some Gravity Falls spotify playlists I've made in case anyone is interested! They are continuous works in progress

What Happened Last Summer (18+) Chapter 1

My first fic guys! (I'm gonna throw up I'm so nervous)

Read Chapter 2 next!

This is the first chapter out of probaby 10 or more and I plan to post a chapter a day. Takes place the summer after the show does, and introduces an OC/love interest for Stan named Kathy :)))

While there's no real smut in it (so far), there is some mild sexual content so I will be marking the whole series as 18+. There is some light angst, arguments, etc. This series really could be titled "Stanley Pines is forced to actually talk about his feelings for once in his life"

Enjoy! Press 'keep reading' for the fic

18+ [minors do not interact]

“Welcome to the Mystery Shack,” the redhead at the counter was less than enthusiastic – she barely bothered to glance up from her magazine. Kathy lingered at the counter and studied the interior of the store. The walls were covered in shelves of bizarre amalgamations of animal parts, interspersed with hats and t-shirts and a few hand-painted signs that said “No Refunds”.  A few customers browsed the items, including an older man in a light blue Hawaiian shirt eyeing a treat inside the vending machine.

“Could I talk to your boss, Soos, if he isn't busy?” 

The girl looked at the clock, then back down at her reading, and said “He’s finishing a tour right now. What do you need?”

Kathy dug around in her bag. “I’m new in town, just reopened the motel. I was wondering if I could leave some business cards here?” 

At that, the man at the vending machine spun around.

“Actually, I’m the owner of this fine establishment.” He leaned an elbow on the counter and proudly gestured around the room. Suddenly, she found her hand in his and he shook it firmly. “Stan Pines – original Mr. Mystery.” His rough, but confident voice echoed through the giftshop.

Kathy tried to meet his eyes but instead found herself staring at the open collar of his shirt. A gold chain poked through a bit of hair that matched the thick silver stands on his head. 

“Sorry,” she began with a small laugh, “I thought you were a customer.”

“I guess you could say I’m retired,” he replied, gesturing to a $15 bobble-head of a man in a black suit and fez. Kathy could sort of see the resemblance, especially the nose. “But I’m not too old to recognize a good business opportunity!” He grabbed the cards from her other hand and studied them. Gravity Falls Twin Bed Motel - now under new management. Open Friday -Monday. He flipped it over to find a name and a phone number. Katherine Phillips, owner. 

“Lovely to meet ya, Katherine. Welcome to town.” He shook her hand again.

“Thank you Stan, but you can call me Kathy,” she replied.

“I’ll strike a deal with you, Kathy. I’ll hand out your business cards if you take some of these,” he handed her a stack of bumper stickers, “and send a few people this way.”

“That’s exactly what I had in mind.” She threw the stickers in her bag. “I look forward to working with you. See you around, Stan” Then, Kathy did something stupid – she winked at him. She wasn’t entirely sure why, other than it seemed that this man’s charisma was rubbing off on her. As soon as she winked, however, every drop of charisma, every minute of sales experience, every cool, casual part of Stan instantly vaporized. A slight pink tinge flooded his cheeks and he cleared his throat into his fist. 

“Yeah, I’ll see ya around.” He watched her walk out the door, then watched her get in her car, then watched her drive off. Before he knew it a hand was waving in front of his face.

“Mr. Pines?”

“Huh?” He shook himself out of it. “Oh, Soos.”

“I see you met Kathy.” Soos nudged Stan with his elbow.

“You know her?”

“She hired my grandma to clean motel rooms – real nice lady. And close to your age too, Mr. Pines.”

Stan considered this information, and started fiddling with the stack of business cards. “What are ya sayin’?”

“Well, you know, ever since I met Melody, I’m sort of like the expert on relationships. I’m sure if you don’t ask her out, Mabel will do it for you when she gets into town.”

“No, Soos, I couldn’t…” Stan began.

“Mr. Pines,” Wendy butted in, “she winked at you. C’mon, ask her out! Ask her out!” She pounded on the counter in rhythm, and Soos joined in the chanting.

“Ask her out! Ask her out!”

“Fine!” Stan grabbed a business card and shoved it in his pocket. “Just get back to work.”

With a deep breath, Stan picked up the phone’s receiver and began dialing. 

“Kathy? It’s Stan… yeah, from yesterday at the shack. Look if you’re not busy tonight, I thought ya might like a tour of the town. I’ve lived here thirty-one years, y’know.”

“A personal tour from Mr. Mystery himself? I couldn’t pass that up.” She teased him, “Will I get to see Bigfoot?”

Stan chuckled, “Nah that stuff's all for the tourists – if you’re gonna live here you need the real tour. Thought I’d take ya to the diner, we could drive around, and maybe go out to the lake.”

“Stan, this sounds more like a date than a tour to me.”

“Ah, ya got me! Guilty as charged.”

Kathy laughed, “Alright, Stan, I’ll see you tonight.”
