Ford Pines Gravity Falls - Tumblr Posts
no bc ford and bill's falling out is so silly to me because its like. ford's obsession with bill was the closest to "religious" that he's ever tread, and that kind of betrayal was earth shattering and hurt ford in a way he had NEVER been hurt before, causing him to completely mentally and emotionally unravel. meanwhile bill is like "can we talk đ„ș" as if he hasn't been using ford for years, and when it became clear ford hated his ass bill got so drunk he forgot his mom was dead. what an INSANE dynamic to establish 8 years after the show ended.
If you take spicy requests, can you write about Ford teasing reader during sex? Like making the reader begging Ford to stop teasing them sexually
A/N: OH HELL YES LEZZGO! This man, this man istfg there's two sides of his fanbase and that's either him being an inexperienced cutie or a straight up sex god. WHAT THOSE FINGERS DO THOOO- remember ya'll my inbox is open for more spazz about this mans come feed me ideas HAHAHAHA- ANYWAY- because this is a spicy 18+ request, fic is under the cut.
MINORS DO NOT INTERACT!
Addicted (Stanford Pines x Reader)
Ford just couldnât get enough of you, his love, his life, his vice, his addiction. You drove him crazy by simply existing, he couldnât get enough. Now presented with the opportunity to return the favor, Stanford Pines was going to go the full nine yards and maybe an extra mile.

You didnât know how you got in this situation to be totally honest; back pressed against the wooden walls of your shared bedroom while being kissed senseless by no one other than Stanford Pines. In one moment you were both sharing wine late into the night, laughing and chatting about whatever. In the nextâ you were here, the alcohol forgotten as you got drunk on something entirely different.Â
Fingers tangled into his hair, you returned his passionate kisses with a fervour; earning a deep grunt from the scientist. The tension wound tight between the both of you, intense and electrifying every action and setting it alight. You were drowning in this man, intoxicated by the smell of leather and ink that clung to him like a second skin. There wasnât anyone else you knew who could swear the scent of a library like an irresistible cologne.Â
Thirty years had been far too long.
Ford couldnât tell where his desire began and his affections ended, the situation played with his head like a snake eating itâs own tail. It should have already triggered the alarms in his head the second you came to him with a bottle of Port, all the more when you offered to share. Now, the uncorked beverage simply sat off to the side; an afterthought halfway empty.Â
It wasnât as if Stanford didnât have self-control, the man was disciplined and strict especially with himself. The problem starts when youâre introduced into that situation. You leave Ford grasping at straws to maintain a coherent mind, much less a sane one. Like the differing poles of a magnet, the two of you were just drawn to each other for reasons words couldnât begin to explain.
One was so bored of the mundane ordinary, the other wanted to find respite in it.
A sharp gasp spilled from your lips when Stanford so easily hefted you up, your legs wrapping around his waist for purchase. You both surged on like desperate teenagers getting lost and crazy in each other. Ford quickly took the opportunity to trail kisses down your neck and on your collar, sucking a couple hickeys that caused you to squirm and cry out for him.Â
The idea that heâs able to maneuver you like this, to position you in any way he wanted with ease really set something off in your brain. Likewise, the way you writhed against him drove your lover up a damn wall. The way your fingers shakily dug into the knit of his turtleneck made Fordâs ego swell with pride. It was because of him you were like this, pliant and at his mercy.
Initially, he felt guilty for even indulging in the first kiss when you both shared that glass. One turned to two, then three and four; another and another no matter how much he tried to stop. You kept pushing his buttons and foolish as ever, Stanford kept falling for it.Â
He told himself that he was going to take it slow with you, to treat you like royalty the way you deserved. Hilariously enough, Stanford failed to factor in that for every queenâ there was a king; and you would stop at nothing to treat him as such.
The researcher knew the buzz that ran in his veins wasnât because of the ethanol he consumed; the tightness in his slacks and heat in his blood wasnât because he was inebriated. Sure, he was completely wasted; lightheaded, dizzy and incoherent, but it wasnât because of the Port.Â
Need burned through his flesh when you roughly pulled him back to meet your lips, a low moan slipping from your lover when you lightly tugged at his silver strands. His hands firmly gripped your hips in retaliation while fingers danced around the waistband of your pyjama bottoms.
âFord. Bed. Now.â
You mumbled amidst fervent kisses, the scientist shivering at the stern tone of your instruction. It was always like this between the both of you; a push and pull that didnât have just one person explicitly calling the shots. His heart thundered against his ribcage when you nibbled at his bottom lip, you just couldnât stop teasing him for even a moment could you?
Stanford didnât dare to break away from kissing you as he clumsily shuffled over to the bed nearby, he was surprised he still even had as much coordination as he did with you distracting him this much; and as if luck decided to taunt him with a jinxâ Ford tripped and caused the both of you to ungraciously tumble on top of the mattress.
You both shared a surprised look when that happened before breaking out into giggles, that was an overdue dampener; not to mention extremely sobering. Your lover awkwardly scratched the back of his neck and shyly looked away as he adjusted his glasses, only then did you realise how much of a number you really did on him.Â
Tousled hair, red-faced, swollen lips, it really reminded you of the first time youâd both gotten carried away snogging back in university. Though, back then youâd both been interrupted for different reasons. Stanford looked really adorable like this, plusâ heâd gone all bashful.Â
You were hoping tonight would end in a different way though.Â
Gently cupping his cheek, you urged the man to look at you again and gave him a brief peck on the nose. You knew youâd gotten the reaction you wanted when the flame of desire reignited behind his eyes. Moving his spectacles to rest on top of his head, you leaned forward to whisper in his ear,
âI never said we had to stop~â
The response was instantaneous, an excited squeal erupting from your throat as Stanford pinned you down against the bed. He was capable of doing a lot, even back then; you just had to poke and prod him to elicit the reactions you wanted. The researcher just smiled down at you amused, leaning down to meet your lips in a gentle kiss.
âYouâre still a minx.â
âIâm your minx.â
That sass quickly left you when he snapped his hips into yours, despite the fact you were both clothedâ you could feel his arousal through the fabric. Your face bloomed in a furious red, itâs been so longâŠ
âYou look cute.â
Forget his trademark eloquence, the enamoured gaze Ford was giving you sent butterflies to your stomach. He never did look at you with anything less. Curiosity and adoration seemed to mix in his eyes around you, hand in hand and step by step. You sighed happily when he went back to nuzzling your neck, only jolting when you felt his teeth graze your skin. The heat surged in your core, the mood was back.
âMay I?â
Youâd laugh if it werenât for the distracting feeling of his calloused palms roaming your skin, your nerves melting and then some from the stimuli. There was no underestimating how much your lover knew, applying that knowledge in practice however⊠sometimes youâd still get burned since age did make him much bolder compared to back then.
âYes please.â
That was all the permission he needed, gently biting down on your neck as his hands cupped your breasts. The moan you let out was no short of sinful, Fordâs eyes narrowed into slits and his actions grew a bit rougher. He felt you shiver when his thumbs brushed over your nipples, arching into his hands as your breathing grew laboured.Â
âFord~!â
The rush of need shot straight down. That had set something off in him, he needed to hear you say his name like that again. Your sweet tone was only doing him in, Stanford couldnât help bucking his hips into yours and a shiver raced up his spine. You rewarded his actions with another desperate cry of his name.
The scientist thanked his lucky stars that he had the foresight to soundproof the rooms back when he built his home.
Stanford finally allowed his hands to wander elsewhere after some time, moving his lips down to replace his fingers instead when giving your breasts attention. He was being so thorough and meticulous; however, it was driving you crazy just how insanely slow the man was being.Â
A small sadistic part of Ford wondered just how far he could take it before youâd beg him to do more; but even that would already be a test of his own control that was rapidly wearing thin thanks to your adorable noises.
âFord pleaseâŠâ
âPlease what my dear?â
You would slap this man for his smug tone if you werenât so impatient on getting him to rail the thoughts out of you. Even if you squealed in surprise at him suddenly groping your ass, his hands had slipped below the garter of your bottoms and he gently kneaded the supple flesh.
âDonâtâ Donât tease!!!â
You cried out when his teeth grazed your nipple, oh fuck this arrogant manâ!
âWhy should I?â
Ford chuckled against your skin when one of your legs weakly kicked his side, he continued to press kisses to your chest while one of his hands finally shifted to give you attention where you sought it the most. It didnât surprise him how soaked you were, but he couldnât say the same for how receptive you were. Just the faintest touch already had you shaking in his arms.
âSensitive?â
You kicked him again, only to exclaim in surprise when he started to rub at your clit. You could tell he was still teasing, the pace he chose would sooner drive you crazy from the frustration than the creeping pleasure. All the more when his tongue flicked over a nipple, you screamed his name in frustration.
âFord!! Please stop teasing!â
âYouâll have to do better than that my love.â
You attempted to buck into his hand but the other was holding you down in place, he sucked harshly on your breast as a consequence and you wailed. It was simultaneously too much and too little, what kind of hell was this?!
âPlease~!! Please, Ford! I needââ
He didnât give you the chance to finish that statement before a finger finally slipped into your entrance, the scientist shivered at how warm and velvety your insides felt wrapped around his finger. He kind of regretted not removing his slacks now prior to this, they were painfully uncomfortable now.
âYouâre so pretty for me~â
You whined at the praise, shivering at the gently firm pace he chose in thrusting his finger in and out of you. Pulling him up by the collar, you messily crashed your lips into his again as he added another finger inside of you and curled them.Â
He knew how you ticked, what would get you to cave to him. Your head fell back when he purposefully pressed into that spongy part that would have you seeing stars. It shouldâve been a bigger concern to you how smug your lover was being, abusing that spot with his fingers until you became an incoherent mess. You cried out his name like a broken record, Ford found himself hooked on itâ on you.
âPleaseâ pleaseâ Fordâ!â
When he slowed his pace down when you got closer to that precipice, you knew he wasnât going to let you fall over that edge so easily. Fuck. So much for hoping he'd play good boy tonight.
It was going to be one of these nights again.

Fic is also here on Ao3 :D

YALL PLS WAHAHAHAHA PICK ONE- we're definitely going down swinging at this point LMFAOOOOO-
For context, this is me asking which Ford do I draw and write for the strip challenge, poll is in my blog's pinned message go vote if you want to LOL
Linkie here too
Given that adult Ford seems to be winning- here's a poll on potential outfits for this idiot cuz why not I wanna Barbie girl this dude
Btw, whether he wins or loses the outfit roster is still pretty much the same(except for the default) no matter which version of Ford wins HAHAHA
Do I dare draw the strip challenge with Ford- I can do it- just do I? HAHAHAHAH OH WOW THIS COFFEE IS GETTING TO ME-
If this gets an overwhelming about of spread and reaction I'll even write a fic drabble to go with it at every step cuz why not? Reblog, Comment, Like, or just @ me like crazy if you wanna see it.

I can't believe I woke up at 8AM to draw because of this idea LMFAO I'll draw/write something special for someone who can guess what inspired my dumbass to make this shitpost HAHAHHAH
I know chances of it happening are slim to none but pls let's get Poindexter wasted and dancing to MÄneskin it'll be funny-
But I might make it canon to my AU because pls DRUNK FORDSYYYYYY- also imagine finding him like this omg it would be so good
I also have one of Stanley- but I'm gonna fix it up the best I can because I have not drawn him EVER aside from the chibi and like- TF THIS MANS LOOKS SO DIFFERENT LOLOLOL-
Also am kinda working on the strip challenge thing alongside some fics, drop me some ideas in my inbox if ever cuz we ballin with the twins fr
Just imagining Ford giving hugs rn, feeling in the dumps because parental figure decided to be a POS. Just imagining him being there, giving reader a hug and telling them that it's going to be okay.
You don't need to smile all the time.
You don't need to act like it's always fine.
You don't need to be strong for once.
It's okay to cry.
It's not reader's fault that their parents think they're a failure when they've already achieved more than most. It's not their fault that their parents are greedy or narcissistic.
Just imagining him holding reader and patting their back as reader silently cries, he doesn't say anything else. He doesn't need to say anything else. He's just there, and that's enough.
Imagine getting an ice cream with the four Pines because it's peak summer and both you and Ford are just waiting for it to melt before you eat it. Mabel thinks it's adorable that you and Ford get along like that while Dipper is just very confused.
Stanley thinks it's a fucking felony that there's two of you that do this and this man has committed how many crimes by now.
Ford is just happy he has someone who understands his point about melty ice cream and which flavors work for it. That and drinking a smoothie is still different from melted ice cream.

The way I couldn't stop myself from giving him the Kingsman treatment in my AU, genuinely I feel like when he got thrown into the portal the first time- his priorities weren't to end bill but to get back home so the way he navigates his situation would already be somewhat different.
Then I remembered Rick Sanchez fucking exists and now I'm like- hold on, what if I just put this idiot in a suit that practically has everything with weapons that don't look as silly as a freaking triangle shaped blaster. Also yes give him actual training on how to fight I know he learns through survival in canon but PLS IMAGINE HIM BEING PAID TO LITERALLY DO CIA/MIB SHIT BY THE INTERGALACTIC FEDERATION-
("Your math is no match for my gun you idiot!" Brother has a toblerone pistol COME ON SIXER-)
Is it stupid? Yes. Is it over the top spy? Yes. Will he look fucking sexy? Pls when you use Colin Firth as a damn reference WHO DOESN'T WANNA SNUGGLE WITH THE DEFINITION OF DEMURE-
Anyway, so yeah in my AU when he does eventually go dimension hopping with his triplets he'll be fucking dressed because I like suffering and suits are hot. There's absolutely no practical reason to this other than they look gosh darn pretty.
I would give a kidney for this fucker to go "Manners Maketh Man" and start a damn bar fight-
But this only does start because of that one post I made about all of them deciding to go adventuring in Dr Who cosplays, AU!Ford just so happens to be the one to maintain it.
Bro I am so delulu over the idea of wifey Reader just doing his tie every morning like: "Good luck at work." And then the fucking morning kisses with coffee and breakfast AGH-
BRO IMAGINE PULLING HIS TIEEEEE I NEED TO WRITE ABOUT THAT OMGGGG-
The triplets would not be amused, but they would try to mess with all his gadgets because WHY NOT-
Bonus cookies if yall manage to convince me to get Stan in on his brother's shenanigans because ngl I AM CONSIDERING THAT SHIT FOR MY AU SO BAD- LIKE JUST THEM KICKING ALIEN BUTT LIKE JAMES BOND OR BUSTING DOWN ILLEGAL INTERDIMENSIONAL DRUG RINGS- OH MY GOD I AM SO SICK- HAHAHAHAHHA-


WIP because I'm apparently high- I have no idea what I'm doing can you tell? XD
Either way just have some young Stan Twins in the meantime while I conk out it's 1 in the morning and I'm doodling nonsense HAHAHAHA
I dare anyone to guess what that stuff actually is and what I put them in cuz I don't think ya'll can :D
Also, do I keep the style I'm currently doodling in? Or do I go back to how I used to do it where they looked more similar to the show's style?
Damn it's been a while I should make some Mr bill pines AU stuff from @/honeqq(not pinging because I don't wanna disturb HAHAHA) I miss these bozos LMFAO
"Who are you?!"
"I am the doctor!"



Time Lord Stanford anyone? Seriously how come I haven't ever seen anyone draw this idiot as a Doctor Who yet LOLOLOLOL
Yeah this is the one I'll use for my Ford askblog cuz why not
"Allons-y!"
"What?"
"Allons-y, it's French for 'let's go'â Oh nevermind."


Couldn't help myself so I messed with a concept with Ford that I'm surprised I haven't seen yet. I can't tell if I want this to be a separate AU entirely or part of my Ford Family AU so I'll leave that be for now. I also decided to give him a sonic screwdriver instead of his own gadget because the multiverse is a funny thing and well, let's just say it ended up in his hands as a "gift".
Very much inspired by @orxinus' Megalomaniac Ford but I made him a lot more goofy. (I love their AU check them out guys!)
Edit: He now has his own blog! Go bother him on @gftimelord LOLOLOL
Since the poll is practically over and the outfit's largely been decided, I'll be dropping the first post to the strip challenge in a couple hours on my Ford Blog @gftimelord to christen it HAHAHHA- (psst go bother him it'll be funny HAHHAHAH) Thanks for the interaction everybody, I only hope to deliver. Here's the first drabble to start it off with since I am pairing every drawing with a story sequence as promised. You could probably think of this as my interpretation for some kind of continuation to Ford's route in "Swooning Over Stans" by @gfdatingsim since I've genuinely been non-stop playing that game since it's recommendation to me. I will balance med proper and my delulu if it's the last thing I do HAHAHAHA-
Reply to this post as well if you want to be pinged for whenever this challenge updates!
I Accept Your Challenge!
(Stanford Pines x Reader)
After you heard a new challenge becoming trendy among couples you decide to try it on a certain Stanford Pines; just... you didn't exactly explain to him what the challenge was.
Maybe his competitiveness was a good thing in this case. You at least got a bloody good show out of his cluelessness.

Another slow summer day and you were in the living room of the mystery shack alongside the Pines as they went about doing whatever. Navigating your relationship with a certain scientist definitely somewhat of a learning curve but you digressed. Similar to Dipper and Mabel, you'd receive post cards from the twins about their seafaring adventures; your mail just came with additional special letters from your beloved. All of which you'd neatly stowed away in a bag that you always had with you, no use keeping it at home when you were rarely there.
Often traveling for a nomadic lifestyle was serene and fun at times, but you found yourself missing this place. It felt more like a home to you than your own place did in the couple weeks you'd stuck around after your car got smashed into the side of the log cabin.
Who knew that the same man who totaled your car one day would be the same adorable nerd you now called your lover?
It felt a bit like those romance dramas Stan liked to watch but you quickly dismissed that thought. Fairytales weren't real, fate isn't exactly something you believed in either. Stories of princesses finding their prince charmings were mostly smoke and mirrors, things you'd tell a child to give them hope of a better world than reality.
In gravity falls however... you quickly learned that nothing was truly impossible. Never say never in this small town of Oregon.
You sat on the floor next to Dipper and Mabel as they boredly flipped through TV channels; books, papers and crayons littered about around the three of you. The glass danced with colors from the rapidly flipping images while the twins struggled to find anything even remotely entertaining to watch, you couldn't help but allow your mind to wander from the boredom.
You and Ford spent quite a bit of time since you'd arrived at the beginning of the week, frankly you'd made the trip as soon possible when Stan shot you a message that they'd finally docked to spend the summer with the kiddos. You hoped it wasn't all that obvious how much you missed Stanford, but you didn't really need to worry when he was the one who immediately swamped you up in a hug the second you were out of your car. It's only been two years thus far since you've known the man but Stanley and Mabel insisted that you stay with him in his room, you didn't know why they were so adamant until you saw the state of the man's living quarters.
A whole day was spent with the both of you furnishing and cleaning the said room because of that but neither of you complained, most of the time was spent goofing off anyway.
Now... you were wondering where Ford was, not to mention what he was doing. Was he down in the lab tinkering again? You didn't want to disturb him, but you really wanted to find him. Any time spent apart didn't feel like time used to it's full capacity, even if you did enjoy the company of the other Pines; it just wasn't the same.
At some point, you were bored enough to not necessarily care whether you'd be disturbing Ford's work or not when you went down to the lab. It was just last summer when he taught you how to get down there, as well as spilling more about his past. All of which you simply listened to unless he asked anything; it was better to listen and attempt to understand than say or do something that would make it worse.
Seems like he really wanted to get it off his chest too, be transparent with you; something you appreciated.
You were shaken out of your headspace when you heard the rustling of boxes from the lab, as well as some hushed but frustrated cursing. You didn't really recall a time Ford swore unless he was legitimately ticked off, the man made a valiant effort not to compared to his twin.
But they both had sailor mouths anyhow even if it was fitting.
"Ford? Are you down here?"
"Ah-! [Y/N]! What- what are you doing down here?"
You moved closer to him in an attempt to see what he was doing, even if the man looked a bit rattled to be found like this by you.
"What are you doing?"
"I asked first my dear."
Ford chuckled, shifting to hide something behind his back. You pouted at him and crossed your arms. He couldn't help but smile at how cute you looked doing that.
"Was looking for you, Dipper and Mabel are bored watching TV upstair anyway... sooooo- what are you doing?"
You smiled when Ford returned your inquisitiveness with a small laugh, showing you what he held in his hand. A pair of goggles?
"What's that for?"
"I was attempting to sort through which of my belongings I could still use among the ones I wish to discard. Inadvertently I ended up finding these, I think I could still make use of them."
You tilted your head at him as a silent prompt to continue, it took every bit of control from Ford not to laugh again. You looked like a curious puppy, though he figured he shouldn't say that outright.
"It's simply among the items I collected and kept with me through my time in the multiverse. Protective eyewear can be useful for many things."
"Huh, if you have thatâ does it mean you still have the rest of the outfit?"
Now it was your turn to think Ford was being cute, he just wordlessly blinked at you in surprise. Was your request really that odd? You'd barely seen him in any other outfit combinations, of course you'd be curious.
"Iâ... I think I do? Why do you ask?"
"Do you think you'd still be able to rock it like you used to?"
"'Used to'? Excuse me?"
"I mean, it's been a couple years... why don't you try it on again?"
Ford laughed once again from your teasing, the way you sassily tried to goad him on was entertaining in it's own right. He was a bit on the fence about the whole outfit however, especially due to the memories associated with it.
It's not that bad compared to some things he'd found though... maybe he could indulge you.
"Hm..."
"I-I mean, if you really don't want toâ"
Your panicked stammering was cut short when a warm palm cupped your cheek, meeting Stanford's eyes as he pressed a chaste kiss to the crown of your head. He could feel your skin heat in up in his hand, hiding a cheeky smile in your hair as he held you there.
"I'll show it to you... as soon as I can find the rest of the outfit."
Ford couldn't help but smile wider when your cheerful laugh rang out; it's the best sound to ever have graced his ears in the time he's been alive. A bit surprising given how many things he's been exposed to, but he couldn't name another chime so pleasant.
"I'll hold you to that Ford."
"And I accept your challenge my dear."

YEAAAAH HERE IT ISSSS- TEXT THING CUZ WE NEED INTRODUCTION-
Cruel
[Mr Bill Pines AU: Bill Cipher-Pines x Clifford(Stanford Reincarnation)]
Bill misses his husband and he canât decide at the moment if this was Karma or just another mistake heâd walked into. Fate could be very kind, but it could also be a very cruel thing.
Inspired by a comic from @honeqq and I decided why not write something related to it! I need to write more stuff for them PLEASE-

Bill had to steel himself once more at the familiar chime summoning him again. He already knew who it was and had a few theories about the reason behind it. The real problem was that he didnât know if he could take it anymore; each moment felt like a deep cut, with wounds left to fester as his heart battled his mind, tearing apart any semblance of sanity.
He had to mentally prepare himself for every encounter with the lookalike of his deceased husband, the imitation of a man to whom he had once given everything. Just being there was painfulâthe same voice, the same face, the similar mutationâŠ
But he wasnât the same man.
Taking a deep breath, Bill stepped in front of the impatient artist, who regarded him with mild annoyance. The artist was blissfully unaware of the constant struggle the god faced just to maintain a decent appearance. For some reason, Bill didnât dare to explain this to him; it made it easier⊠sort of.
âOh, finally. I was beginning to think you werenât going to show.â
Bill mused that someone must be pulling a sadistic prank, repeatedly putting him in this situation where every waking moment threatened to unleash the flood of emotions and grief once more. This man wasnât the genius he had once loved. This guy wasnât Sixer, no matter how similar they looked.
âYeah, yeah, Iâd call you âluckyâ number seven, but youâve just been annoying. Of all the cosmic beings to seek guidance from, youâd think youâd pick one that hasnât faded into obscurity.â
âYou were the muse for this journalâs author, so I thought youâd be able to help me in some way, somehow. I think.â
At the mention of the journal, Bill wanted to shrivel up and die. It was the only one he hadnât had a hand in writing. The others he had co-authored with his husband, but this one⊠this one had eluded him for so long, only to be found by⊠this guy.
He wanted to bash his skull in and scream.
Stanford was gone; that pill had been hard enough to swallow a thousand years ago. Fate just had to rub salt into that open wound. This whole situation was cruel.
âWhatâs the problem this time?â
âI canât decide what I want to paint.â
The empty canvas the other man gestured to seemed to beckon him, the stark white void drawing him in and holding him in a vice grip. The triangle stared blankly at the vacant space; an idea flickered to life in his mind, but he hesitated to indulge it. What if he did? It would only unleash another wave of grief, a haunting reminder of what once was and what he had lost to the relentless claws of time and the cold hands of death.
Bill already knew this was going to be idiotic. He felt it in his bonesâhe was about to make yet another stupidly ridiculous choice. Yet, before he could stop himself, the words tumbled out. Regret settled in immediately after he spoke.
âHow about this? What if you painted someone for me? A portrait.â
The reincarnation regarded him with curiosity and interest, and Bill felt an overwhelming urge to gouge out his lone eye at the sight. Donât look at him like that. Donât give him the same expression that once held so much love and adoration, the kind that had nearly drowned him. Donât remind him of those memories. Donât drive the knife in deeper.
âSure, I donât see why not.â
That was the amusement that haunted him: the ghost of a man he had once loved to his own detriment. Someone whose smile caused the edges of his eyes to crinkle with unbridled joy, someone whose gaze never wavered in love and adoration. It was a ticking time bomb to have chosen and loved a mortal; inevitable goodbyes lurked around every corner of his finite life. There was no telling how much time they had left together, yet Bill still felt like Stanford was taken from him far too soon.
What he would have given for just a little more timeâone last kiss, one final âI love you.â
He was a god, yet he would have surrendered absolutely everything for just another moment with the man he once called a husband. His equal. His muse.
Bill had to turn away from the other man, feeling tears welling up in his eyes. He quickly blinked them back; after a thousand years, the grief was still overwhelming. It felt like just yesterday he had been in the arms of his lover, and now that love and comfort were nowhere to be found. The ache in his heart throbbed and pounded, emotions turning him soft. What a useless god heâd become. What was once a pleasant feeling had morphed into crippling sorrow.
âIf you donât mind me asking, though⊠who is it that you want me to paint?â
That was a loaded question, burdened by the lament and grief of a thousand yearsâa love lost to the hands of time and the embrace of death. The one plane of existence where Bill couldnât follow. Not as he was. Not when he didnât have the ability to die. The sickness of an immortal, truly.
âSomeone important to me. My muse.â
âYou have a muse? Wow. They must be someone incredible.â
Bill could only let out an empty laugh. Stanford was incredibleâmore than he could ever dare to articulate. Words simply wouldnât do the man justice; to have a god fall to his knees out of love was an immeasurable feat. The triangle always believed his lover was a force to be reckoned with, a powerhouse and then some. Yet, the relentless sands of time eventually wore him down. Even Stanford's brilliant mind, which had endured so much, couldnât escape the inevitable; the grim reaper came to collect his dues.
No mortal was spared from that fate.
âYeah. He was .â
The pain that bled through the triangleâs voice didnât go unnoticed by the artist, despite his attempts to conceal it. However, the artist chose not to mention it, believing it was best not to pry. After all, it wasnât his place to interfere; why would he?
Bill cleared his throat and floated up to get a better look at the empty canvas. Every instruction was clear and concise, every requested stroke of the brush executed with intention and purpose. The triangleâs close guidance and precise descriptions of each detail left no room for error; there were simply no mistakes.
As the painting began to take shape, colors and pigments blended seamlessly, crafting an image clearer than crystal. Gradually, the likeness of a man emergedâone with silver hair and a gentle gaze, complemented by a smile that reached his eyes, eyes that radiated immense love and adoration. It was evident that the painting captured an intensely intimate moment; such an expression was not meant for just anyone. Only someone so deeply loved and cherished could inspire a face like that. Only someone who felt eternally young could carry the weight of age with the wonder and joy of a child. The painting became a living juxtaposition.
The artist dropped his paintbrush in surprise; the painting looked so⊠alive. Under Billâs guidance, this project had transformed into one of his best works. He couldn't help but wonder if its resemblance to a self-portrait was purely coincidentalâan unnerving mirror he had created hour after hour, stroke after stroke, with immense specificity from the triangle beside him. However, the longing gaze from Bill toward the smiling subject made things clear. That action alone spoke more truth than any words they had ever exchanged. Yet, despite the painstaking effort poured into this piece, his eyes were inevitably drawn back to the final product.
It felt⊠familiar somehow, as if he knew this man, perhaps having met him somewhere before, despite the artist's certainty that he never had.
What was this sense of déjà vu?
The painting was beautifully crafted, distinctly unreplicable, particularly within the eyes of this man, which overflowed with mirth and fondness that clearly belonged to a lover. The expression he wore embodied the true essence of being loved, the purest depiction of happiness.
How had Bill even known about this? Not to mention in such explicit detailâŠ
âBillââ
âYou have your painting, I need some time to think.â
The triangleâs voice trembled with overwhelming emotion, cracking under the weight of his grief. He couldnât bear to look at the painting any longer. He turned away, unable to face either the finished work or the living, breathing human who looked so painfully similar to the man immortalised in the portrait. Every glance at the painting drove the knife in his chest deeper.
He had been rightâthis was a stupid idea.
âJust summon me again when you need me,âÂ
Bill muttered, his voice barely holding together. And with that, the god vanished before the artist could even respond.
Back in his original resting place, hot tears spilled from his lone eye as the grief heâd kept buried for so long finally poured out. The triangle broke down into uncontrollable sobs, curling up against a nearby wall, shivering as anguish consumed him. An agonised scream tore from his chest, shaking the very room. It was a miracle he had managed to stay composed for as long as he had.
Maybe he had wanted to see Stanford againâwanted to remember a happier time, to recall a memory frozen in place. The face of his husband, the man he had loved so deeply. But that love was now buried beneath a thousand years of pain and loss, an ache that had festered beyond measure.
Bill Cipher couldnât move. He stayed there, weeping through the day, letting the weight of eternity crush him.
If he was truly fated to cross paths with that reincarnation, there was only one truth left.
Fate was just so cruel.

Fic is here as well on Ao3!
IT'S HEREEEE OH GOD I TOOK WAY TOO LONG TO POST THIS- I hope my artstyle is acceptable HAHAHA- Anyway, have fun yall and here's the fic that goes along with it-

Strip Challenge: Round 1! (Stanford Pines x Reader)
You tease Ford a little as he models out an old outfit for you. He's largely confused by what you're asking of him but he indulges you anyway.

"Are you ready?" "For the dozenth time, yes, Ford!"
You giggled as Ford finally emerged from the closet, dressed in an old outfitâhead to toe in shades of black and grey. For once, he was wearing something different, and you couldnât help but stare. The man in question, feeling the weight of your gaze, shifted awkwardly, a bit shy.
âItâs... been quite a while since Iâve worn this. Iâm surprised it still fits as well as it does.â
The scientist scratched the back of his neck as you approached him with a mischievous grin. There was something playful in your eyes, something brewing, and Ford could sense it. Yet, for the life of him, he couldnât figure out what you were planning.
âIt looks amazing on you~â
Fordâs pulse quickened as you slowly circled him, inspecting his outfit with a bit too much attention. The way your eyes roamed made him feel a tad self-conscious. Then, without warning, you reached for his hands, gently removing his gloves one by one.
Ford felt his breath hitch in his throat as the gloves slipped from his fingers and fell to the floor, forgotten. Then, without hesitation, you tugged him down for a kiss.
Heat rose to his cheeks as you caught him off guard, the warmth of your lips sending a shockwave through his system. Instinctively, he pulled you closer, his heart pounding as the soft, disarming kiss left him breathless. He was intoxicated by you, by the moment, the world around him disappearing as your playfulness filled the air between you.
Suddenly, the sound of something hitting the floor pulled him back. He blinked, still dazed from the kiss, only to see his goggles lying on the ground behind you. You had tossed them aside with a cheeky grin, leaving him even more flustered.
Ford raised an eyebrow, a small smile playing on his lips as he met your gaze, full of mischief.
âJust what are you planning, my dear?â
He asked, his voice low and curious, the spark of excitement unmistakable. Your grin only widened as you leaned in, fingers lightly trailing down his arm, sending a shiver through him.
âYouâll see~â
You purred, leaving him with a whirlwind of curiosity and anticipation, his pulse racing all over again.
