I can imagine newly-vampired!Mabel and Dipper assuming that Ford wanted to be the same strain as Stan, being completely oblivious to the fact that Ford has been going "pls pls plsplsplsplsplspls!!!" at every other vampire he encountered for decades and basically became a vampire repellent in a non magic way (like sure other vampires probably realised Ford is already a thrall but like. that's a puny reason compared to his intense vibes)
Godddddd, if Ford had encountered any other vampires before summer of 2012 he absolutely would have become That Guy to the greater vampire community at large. Weirdo keeps going around asking people the best way to become one of the undead. Stan getting fancily-written letters from age-old vamps that boil down to "please stop letting your thrall harass us for our blood, it's getting annoying".
The reaction of newly-vampired!Ford going "damn. Who knew that my beloved niece getting targeted for a demon sacrifice while I was completely oblivious ended up being one of the best things to happen to me" and also now anyone who knows about vampires constantly making the mistake in thinking that he's the "head" of their tiny clan instead of baby faced one
He becomes the guy in vampire media who everyone points to like "It's the head vampire!!! we gotta get his ass to get the rest of them!!!" but no he's simply a decoy. a Ruse. The young punk built like a brick shithouse who's been hiding behind ford's arm because you accused him of shoplifting gum [he did shoplift the gum] is the REAL head vampire you gotta get. and he can throw hands ( ୨`д´*)୨
The pain of only realizing how much you love someone, flaws and all, after they’re gone. Of having thought you wanted them to change only to realize after they’ve changed that you loved who they were all along. Of realizing you lost someone years ago and you never even knew when it happened
Ford just wants his brother back,, his REAL brother, not this sanded down version.
I know there is art for older magical girl Grunkle Stan in the Madoka AU, but also consider the alternate possibility that the meguca form doesn't age past the point the contract is made, leading to Dipper and Mabel to have secret identity shenanigans with him all summer
Oh, now *that's* funny. Crotchety old man by day, chubby-faced delinquent by fight. Stan would NOT want them to know it's him either, and it's not because of "protecting" his "secret identity". [He likes that he's old!! He earned those years, dammit! Dude would hate passing mirrors in his meguca form and seeing the same dumb teenager that got his brother killed all those years ago.]
How would Shermie feel if he found out the truth about coral Stan?
He wouldn't believe it if he was told; his life is too wrapped in the mundane for something like "my brother was killed and replaced with a perfect copy" to sound real instead of like someone [Ford] watched "Invasion of the Pod People" and had a scary dream about it.
every-apocalypse!stan hosing the children down in his yard
Yea okay, why not.
Stan stared out at the yard with a long-suffering expression on his face. When had this become his life? All he wanted was to build a portal and bring his brother back from whatever hell dimension he'd been trapped in. And now Stan was stuck dealing with two feral children.
Said children were currently wrestling in the only patch of mud his yard had.
"You'll never best me, for I was born of the muck!" Meteor shouted, putting her brother in a headlock.
"Yea, well, I was-uh." Bearclaw hesitated, still struggling to pull his sister's arm from around his neck. "Also born of the muck?"
Stan closed his eyes and counted to ten. When he opened them again, the children were still covered in mud. He sighed, setting the plates in his hands on the couch nearby.
He leaned down, picking up the hose nozzle from where he'd abandoned it yesterday. He left his slippers on the porch as he padded to the faucet and turned on the water.
It dribbled for a moment, then water burst forth, soaking the children.
They shrieked, hands raising to block their faces.
"Get out of the mud and come eat a sandwich, you gremlins." Stan glowered at them.
"Grunkle Stan!" Meteor wailed, "You're ruining my costume!"
"What costume? You're just covered in mud."
"That is my costume!"
Stan grunted. "Well, that costume is staying out there. You're coming up onto the porch and eating a sandwich."
Is it okay for Nikola (cat stan) to be president of my country? 'Indonesia'. Honestly, I'm really fed up with my country which is in chaos with the president ignoring the people and continuing to torture us slowly... I want him to be president... please please please... I'm tired of my country... money here is getting weaker... our rupiah... I can't even afford to buy Fall Gravity merch...🥹
Sure

Do u think Stan looks really gross and like puffy right as he's blowin up or does he just instantly turn into just blood in a blinding flash of light. The people need to know.
Listen. When this man explodes, there is a microsecond of time where he has been replaced with a perfect silhouette of red, plus also whatever shoes he was wearing that are getting left behind.
