Length: Anticipated 16-18 chapters
Update Schedule: Weekly
have you read all GF books like the Lost Legends or Journal 3 etc? do you have one physically or none? do you plan on buying the Book of Bill? also do you ever want to write a MaBill fic that's completely platonic or ambiguous (can be platonic or romantic)? pardon all the questions hope you have a good day <33
Yay, questions!
Also sorry for the delayed response!!
Yes, I've read Lost Legends and Journal 3! Although it was years ago now, I probaly only half remember the contents.
No, the only Gravity Falls merchandise I own are some funko pops for Bill, Mabel and Dipper. Surprising I don't own more tbh.
I'm a sucker for romantic MaBill so my fics just happen to be that... I would say my "Frankenstein's Monster" oneshot is the only I wrote which I would consider platonic where the pair are partners in crime rather than partners romantically. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm a basic bitch who simps for shipping them.
Tumblr once again not notifying me of inbox messages, yikes I have a few.
I'm gonna be honest, I haven't had much chance to peruse the contents available online for the Book of Bill (other than the memes, so many memes) between IRL stuff. But it is on my list to get around to...
Hmm. Ended up daydreaming about a small addition to Sands of Chaos last night and began writing... Shall see if anything comes of it. Probably only a stand alone one-shot if anything.

Cuando escribí esto lo hice pensando en que el morado es el opuesto en el círculo cromatico al amarillo
When I wrote this I did it thinking that purple is the opposite of yellow on the color wheel.
«─Te amo Mabel Pines, mi estrella fugaz… y se que en tus manos nuestra pequeña flama no se extinguirá─
«Yo también» contestó desde el fondo de su corazón en donde la llama de su amor ardía fervientemente pese a todo. Aunque todo el llanto sin derramar parecía querer apagarlo. Lentamente se acercó y beso su frente cómo él hacía cuando ella buscaba consuelo. Poco a poco el brillo dorado se extinguió en el techo y desapareció.»

─I love you Mabel Pines, my shooting star... and I know that in your hands our little flame will not be extinguished──.
"Me too" she replied from the bottom of her heart where the flame of her love burned fervently despite everything. Although all the unshed tears seemed to want to extinguish it. Slowly she came closer and kissed his forehead as he did when she sought comfort. Slowly the golden glow faded into the ceiling and disappeared...

Este fanfic merecia un mejor dibujo que los dos anteriores (aparte tenía que practicar mis dibujos sin líneas)
This fanfic deserved a better drawing than the previous two (plus I had to practice my drawings without lines)

Mabel Pines should have been enjoying a college beach party that evening filled with rowdy students, music, and perhaps a little underage drinking.
Instead, she found herself currently handcuffed to a pipe in a felon’s basement. But hey, as least she wasn’t alone, renowned asshole Bill Cipher was also locked down here with us!
Her parents would surely notice she was missing come morning and raise the alarm. But until then… she was stuck here. She had been trying to wiggle her hand out of the handcuff for the past twenty minutes, but all it had succeeded in doing was making her wrist red and achey.
‘This is your fault.’
She paused at that. Mabel raised her head, eyes falling on her classmate chained to the radiator on the other side of the room. She was surprised he was talking, he'd been sulking ever since she awoke ten minutes ago and hadn't said much. 'What?'
Bill stared up at the cieling, arms crossed over his waist as he casually sat on the floor beside his own pipe chained to his hand. ‘Ya heard me.’
Mabel raised an eyebrow. ‘How the heck is this my fault? You’re the one who was getting all chummy with a criminal!’
‘Exactly. I had a plan and it was going just fine,’ Bill said sharply, sounding annoyed. ‘Then you had to stick your nose in and ruin everything.’
Mabel puffed out her cheeks in agitiation as she glared his way. First, he refused to look for a way out, then he refused to talk to her, and now he was being an ass!
‘Well gee, sorry for trying to care about you! I’ll just follow my brothers advice and stop talking to you then!!' She swung her head back down with a huff and returned her attention to the handcuff. In doing so, she missed the way Bill looked in her direction, expression tightening with an unreadable expression and hands clenching as the cavalier attitude slipped.
The metal edges of the cuff bit into the skin of her hand as she attempted to force it. She needed something to keep her mind focused on, otherwise she was going to start panicking.
She hadn't meant to care about Bill Cipher.
In the beginning, they'd been forced to pair up for a group project in school. The guy was definitely an ass and had clashed with her and Dipper several times over the years.
But here she was, four months later, caring about the guys wellbeing so much that she made the impulsive and unwise decision to follow an ex-con to his house in what she thought was a very undetected and sneaky manner.
(Apparently it wasn't either).
One cholorform attack later and here she was.
'Quit it.'
Broken out of her thoughts, Mabel glanced aside to find Bill watching her with a frown. 'What?'
'You're bleeding. Quit messing with it.'
She was? Mabel look back down to find she had indeed cut the skin on her hand. But before she could do anything further, Bill spoke again.
‘Why would you come here?’
She frowned, gaze still fixated on her wrist as she brushed a thumb over the cut, staining her skin red. ‘…I wanted to know if he was bad or not.'
'Well, I think ya got your answer.'
She bristled. Mabel had enough people calling her naïve and she was tired of it. ‘Oh yeah? Well, what about you?’ she retorted, sending him a sharp look. ‘How did you end up down here? I thought you said you had plan and everything.’ She didn't know what had happened between her being knocked out and awaking, only that Bill was down here with her by the time she did rouse from her forced slumber.
Bill’s nostrils flared, eyes drilling into her like ice. ‘I’m down here because of you, you ungrateful brat. Sorry for being a little careless in my rush to make sure you were still alive!’
‘Huh?’
‘Hell, sorry for caring about your annoying ass and trying to keep you away from the freak upstairs who killed my parents. Clearly, you didn’t want me to do that since you offered yourself on a platter.’
‘Wait, your parents? Wha-?'
‘And more than anything, I’m sorry I made the big mistake of falling for you, okay? But it happened and I can’t do anything about it so here we are.’
As Bill finished his rant and slumped back againt the wall, Mabel gaped at him with mouth wide open and eyes bulging comically.
Her poor heart had gone into overdrive. She wasn’t sure which piece of information to chew on first, instead finding herself choking on it all at once and unable to form a coherent response.
Bill had come here to save her? From the guy who killed his parents!? Because he LIKED her!?!?
Oh God, if she wasn’t already on the floor she surely would have fainted.
'Now, do me a favour and stay here.' Bill raised his hand that was chained up.
She closed her mouth, eyes returning to their ordinary size. 'Wait, what do you-HOLY FUCK!!'
The snapping noise as he broke his wrist was sickening. Mabel's mouth flew agape for a differnet reason this time as the blond freed himself, standing to his full height.
'What the hell? Bill!'
He smiled wryly and urgh, why was her heart fllipping in a situation like this? 'Relax, it ain't my dominant hand.'
Mabel grimaced. 'If you could do that, why did you wait until now?'
'Had to wait for the dizziness to go away.'
'Dizziness? What do you... oh jeez, you're bleeding!' As he turned away she saw the dried blood on the back of his head and realised his way of being knocked out hadn't been as nice as hers.
'See ya in a bit, Shooting Star. I'll be back when coast is clear.'
'What? No! Bill!' She yanked forward but could go no further than a few feet. 'You don't just get to drop that bombshell and leave me!!'
'I'll tell you about my parents later. Maybe.'
'I meant you saying you liked me!!'
The young man paused at the foot of the stairs, going still. Then, after a moment:
'I didn't say that.'
'You- Yes, you did!!' Ooh, she wasn't going to let him get out of this!! 'You said you'd fallen for me!'
She was sure she heard him swear under his breath.
Bill turned around with a dazzling smile, shooting her finger guns. (Hey, that was her signature move!) 'Well, I'm off. Gotta go kill a guy. It's legal if it's in self-defensive!' Wink.
“Since when did you ever care about me?!” “Since fucking forever, you idiotic dunce!”
“I can’t leave you alone for one second without you hurting yourself, can I?” “I mean, I’m fine so it’s okay—” “No, it’s not okay. Not when I feel like I’m going to go batshit fucking crazy, thinking you’ve hurt yourself.“
“Well, I’m sorry I fell in love with you, okay? But it happened and I can’t do shit about it.” “You… What?”
“You think I wanted this to happen? You think I, of all people, wanted to fall in love with you?”
“Trust me, I’m also trying to understand how in the shit this happened.”
“…This is why I knew I shouldn’t have gotten close to you.”
“I’m going to need you to stop for one second because I just find it so incredibly rude that you think I’m not head over heels in love with your stupid, oblivious ass. Are you a brick? Because you’re dense as fuck.”
“Tell me how I’m supposed to un-love you, then. Tell me. Spare me.”
“Yeah, well, if I could, I’d lose feelings for you. But it’s not that easy. It’s not that easy to just let go of someone you’ve held onto for so fucking long.”
“What part of ‘I want you, and only you’ do you not understand?”
