What happened When Pines Family Know stan was Death?

I'll take it you're asking how the family reacted to the news of Stan's death in the "Overshadowed" comic?

I think the parents and Shermie would react similarly to Ford's "death" in the Author Stan AU, exept with far more guilt. Ma would be distraught over not having stopped Stan getting thrown out and blame herself. I do think Filbrick would feel some kind of remorse, but to what extent, I don't know.

Ford is the one who takes it the hardest. He reasons that since the inciting incident was his science project it's his fault. Despite constant reassurance that he's not to blame, he still insists he is. As far as he's concerned, he killed his brother and the guilt is crushing him. Stan was resentful too at first, but any anger over the fact that Ford didn't help him vanishes the second he sees how completely distraught and broken he is. His only goal from that point on is keeping him alive.
