You know, I have a tradition of re-watching “Gravity Falls” every summer, which appeared back when the first season was just coming out.
But since I read Flat Dreams a few years ago and, one might say, EVERYTHING related to this amazing fanfic, the item “re-watch Gravity Falls” has also added the item “re-read Flat World, etc.”
I can’t find words to express my gratitude not only for the "best summer", but also for this masterpiece among fanfictions!!!
And every time, like the first time, my heart breaks into pieces at this moment... (/T~T)/
“Sleep,” he says. “I am here.”
I want to specify this Steve is the one from the Steve was there AU
Ok first of all if you haven't already go read @pengychan 's fic Flat Dreams. It was the most commonly accepted Bill backstory until TBoB and is still my favorite fic ever written. This will make no sense if you haven't!
Whew! Still moving around but happy to have my tablet back. Of course immediately drew triangles. Was in a Liam mood for some reason so here's a take on a Liam-joins-Bill scenario! More doodles and rambles under the cut :]
Bottom left is my take on a Euclydian Liam. Irregulars aren't executed in Euclydia but they're sort of akin to fat people where they face constant, normalized discrimination and are often the butt of the joke. After birth, parents are socially pressured to attempt to fix their child's asymmetry via surgery or shape-correcting braces and are often made to feel ashamed if they cannot, a shame that transfers onto the Irregular once they reach adulthood.
Given how extreme Liam's asymmetry is, he would typically be a candidate for surgery, but the presence of the brick pattern on his longest angle indicates that that's where his lungs are (think of the pattern as something akin to gill slits or indents for spiracles; they breathe through the seams [source]), so instead he gets a brace.
It's not a very good brace. It's a cheap one for the lower class and pretty uncomfortable as all it really does is squeeze really hard. Not super happy with this design so have been brainstorming better ones; I hc Kryptos as having one of these braces too so he's my inspiration!
Bottom right is just the two Getting Scared™ together. Bill has psychotic episodes, Liam has dissociative episodes, and it kinda ends up triggering them both in a big meltdown cycle. Bill starts clawing at his own face and behaving erratically -> this triggers Liam's fear of him and makes him dissociate -> Bill sees Liam's gone away which triggers his own terror of losing him again -> repeat forever!
Alas, as hard as it is being together, it's harder being apart
What even IS that thing put it outside
i wish there was a 'Follow But Again' button so i could follow you harder im seriously obsessed with your gravity falls art
(((((im the one who you offered to talk about flat dreams ith btw :>))))
Awww thank you so much!! That means a ton to me, so glad you enjoy 🥺🥺
Also hello again! When I finished that fic I had to physically get up and go for a night drive and lived life in a hollow stupor for the next three days. Pain agony. I didn't think it was possible for me to actually feel bad for the bastard triangle
RIP Liam he just like me fr
Gravity Falls meme dump because maybe someone out there shares my questionable sense of humor
