I'll be honest, we're just throwing art at the wall to see what sticks.

Happy 10th Anniversary Gravity Falls!

And Happy Birthday to Stan and Ford!  And also Happy Birthday to Alex! And @eregyrn-falls! And me! (It’s been an eventful week!)

We’ll meet again some sunny day!

And they didn’t…. Because Bill is still a statue. 

But everyone else got together for a reunion at a secluded lake with a lovely view of the cliffs!

Headcanons for this: 

  • Mabel dyed her hair during quarantine and never looked back.
  • Pacifica asked Mabel to give her some purple streaks once they were vaccinated and able to get together again.
  • Dipper kept working out since his encounter with the Manotaurs because he wanted to be able to keep up with his Grunkles on future adventures.
  • Mabel ended up with more of a large, strong woman physique from continuing to carry Waddles around as he grew.
  • Dipper and Mabel both eventually needed glasses like their Grunkles. 
  • Ford finally got new ones and miraculously hasn’t broken them yet.
  • Stan hasn’t cut his hair since passing the title of Mr. Mystery on to Soos.
  • They both earned a spattering of white hairs to go with their gray from encountering (and running away from) anomalies around the world… And maybe from dealing with each other’s terrible jokes for so long.
  • Soos and Melody started a family. They’re not sure how many kids they want yet.
  • Fiddleford and Tate have mended their relationship and work on an invention, fish, or hike together at least once a month. Fiddleford made them an ice fishing shanty-bot and revisited his robot legs idea for long hikes.
  • Candy, Grenda, and Mabel are still best friends but now with the addition of Pacifica to their group.
  • Wendy stuck around to help her dad with his business and is still the coolest woman in town.

Thank you to everyone who made this show possible! I’ve met some amazing friends and super talented creators in this fandom and have loved every minute of mysteries, anomalies, and ciphers! It got me through some rough times, inspired me to draw again, and inspired me to write several hundred thousand words

(Since it’s also pride month, clicky the images for more/clearer detail and see if you can spot a few little references I added, I mean, aside from the umbrella basically being a giant pride flag.)

Just… Playing around with some Bord drawings and effects and things… You know. For fun. This has absolutely nothing to do with getting ready to write more pain. Nope nope not even a little… (I may need moral support for this XD)

Some sketches and stuff from chapter 69 - The Man Behind the Door at the Bottom of the Stairs… And an Elevator (Links and more info on my writing tumblr @shattereddreams-gravityfallsfics​ ) 

I’ve had the sketch for the colored one since like 2018… XD  (The only difference is that he still had long hair and a beard in the original sketch).

Bonus - a design for the silly eye patch Stan made for Ford under the cut as well as an old sketch from before things developed

“Sorry, Ford, you didn’t get to see them again.”

Illustrated Stangst from 24/7 - a one shot for The Man Downstairs AU (AKA a flashback to what happened the first time Bill possessed Ford while he was awake):

Stan did the best thing he could think to do in that moment. He locked the barred door, scrawled out a note that simply said, “Hospital. Back soon.” and somehow drove himself there. He hobbled out of his car, his vision blurring until he felt himself slump down. He tried to push himself up but lacked the strength in his arms. He tried to call out for help but his voice melted in his mouth.

Somewhere in the distance, he heard pops and bangs, then one so close that it shook his chest. He rolled over onto his back searching for the source. Gunfire? explosives? Rico! No… In his haze, he saw a fountain of sparks light up the sky and remembered where he was supposed to be that night; At the park with Ford, watching the fireworks. “Sorry, Ford,” he muttered, “You didn’t get to see them again.” He raised his arm toward a burst of white and blacked out.

I was hoping to have this ready for July 4th since that’s when it took place in the fic but *mumbles about things not turning out right and it taking a long time to figure out* 

Thanks much to @cell113, @geekyartemis, and @leesbian42 for helping me work some things out for this!

Illustrations based on Mabel’s idealization of Stan’s self care bath vs his reality from chapter 59 of The Man Downstairs. (Click for more details/less fuzziness) I debated drawing a totally different bathroom for Mabel’s version, like a posh, spa sort of thing but thought that, while she would imagine that as the perfect scenario, she’d also have a vision of how she’d decorate the existing bathroom without remodeling the whole thing.

Transcript: Self Care Bath Expectation  Mabel’s Recommendation (misspelled then edited)

Mabel: Grunkle Stan, you’re having a self care bath?! Do you have bubbles or bath salts and a book and something to drink… Juice… No grownups like wine, right? Oh what about Scented candles?

VS

Reality

Stan: Uh sure. There’s a scent in here alright.

And some detail shots for the heck of it:

Happy Birthday to the lovely @eregyrn-falls! 

Portal Ford and Chris may have stayed out too late exploring the Pteroworld Badlands but they found a cozy little beehive formation cave for shelter. As usual, Ford’s staying up late to finish some notes and drawings.

Happy Grunk Day 2021! 

Mabel planned their party, of course. By now, she knows exactly the right combination and amount of drinks that will get them to not only make use of the karaoke machine, but to belt out 80′s hits like they MEAN IT (while not letting them have too much). Wendy is recording it for blackmail Mabel’s digital scrapbook. Soos is looking up which song he wants to sing and is trying to work up the courage to ask his dad Stan to sing a duet with him. And Dipper is making good use of his ear plugs but also wonders if the karaoke machine has any Babba music in its catalog and if Mabel could serve him the right combination of drinks too. 

Happy Birthday to them! 

(and me too except it’s tomorrow :D)
