I am Dr. Stanford F. Pines—Investigator of the Abnormal—Explorer of the Unknown!
Mabel and Dipper thought it’d be a fantastic idea to get me set up on the web!—Giving you, the Curious Asker, power to ask me anything you wish to know the answer to—And, from what they’ve told me—You all have many inquiries about my work!
I’m a bit lagging in the past few decades of technology, haha! Please, be a tad patient!
You may Ask Away!

my inbox is usually super full—so i’m going to get into the routine of closing the inbox every now and then to catch back up!

Hello! Greetings! I’ve been away for some time, haven’t I? It’s been….hrm…allow me to explain.
I am afraid that like many others, my Gravity Falls fixation did gradually dwindle, and my constant attempts at trying to keep myself invested eventually led to a bad burnout as well as a mental health tumble.
But after a long hiatus, I do believe that I am ready to return and get these gears turning again.
However,
This won’t be immediate, so do not expect me to start again tomorrow, but do expect some activity within the next month or so.
The ask box will open again soon❣️ Thank you all truly for the continued support despite my sudden absence. I mean it from the bottom of my heart when I say I don’t know where I would be if it weren’t for this very blog.
Hey, man. You’re a scientist. You do your research. You like studying the weird shit. And you’ve been up close and personal with the last surviving Euclydian. Did you ever get to explore- I mean examine his body?
(Ford calls, dragging a cooler alongside him and onto one of the many docks at Lake Gravity Falls—This one in particular just happens to be more secluded than the rest of them.
He huffs as he tugs the cooler to the edge, having to take a minute before he sits down. He sits crisscrossed.
He waits. Cracks his knuckles out of habit.
His eyes fix on the water below him.)
@grunklefordpines
[Calypso pokes her head out of the water, her eyes wide and sparkling at the sight of Ford]
(He pulls a small notebook and pen out of his coat pocket.)
This cooler is full of every kind of meat I could get my hands on. I’ll record the ones that you like.
(Ford opens the lid, pulling out mystery meat #1!)
—I know, nothing will probably ever compare to the taste of flesh, but we’ll figure something out—You’ve done it before—But you won’t be on your own, this time.
(He scoots closer to the edge. Pulling the cling wrap off the meat and holding it out to her, he tries to look reassuring.)
[Calypso pushes away the meat, though keeps her hand placed on Ford’s hand as she stares into his eyes. It’s a mix of sadness and understanding]
Neither of us should feel bad for being tricked. For being lied to. Bill used and manipulated us in many ways. I know I don’t know a lot about what happened between you and him, but you don’t deserve to carry that guilt around.
[She pulls herself out of the water and onto the dock, taking a seat next to Ford with her tail dangling over the edge. She squeezes Ford’s hand slightly.]
We don’t have to live with those mistakes weighing us down. We don’t deserve that. You don’t deserve that.
(He’s taken aback, looking back into Calypsos eyes. He chuckles, but it sounds pained.)
I don’t know any other way to live, Calypso.
(His gaze goes to their hands—The scars on his hand.)
I’ve managed well, since I’ve returned home—I have a support system, and people who often make an effort to ensure that I’m okay—And, for the most part, I am.
—But I’m still always reminded of my mistakes—I’m the embodiment.
[She drags her fingers along the scars on his hands, frowning before looking up]
You know…in siren culture, scars are a badge of honor. They show how you have survived even the hardest of battles. To me, they are beautiful.
[She lifts Ford’s hand and places a kiss on the back of his palm, before smiling at Ford]
I do not think anyone one could have prevented Bill, Stanford. No matter what, he would have always found someone to manipulate and use. But I do not think anyone else could have stopped him. I think you need to give yourself more credit—, to realize that you made a mistake—, but you fixed it.
[She places a hand on Ford’s cheek]
You should not have to carry this burden, Stanford Pines. You should allow yourself to be happy. Because Bill wants you to be miserable, to suffer in your guilt until you crawl back to him. So you should thrive. Thrive and have joy to show him that he has no power over you anymore.
if you notice some responses being changed around and edited a tad, please don’t mind it!—i fear my ford has grown quite out of character and it has been eating at me for literally months, now!
of course big chains i’m involved in (billypso) won’t have a change in response...unfortunately—but answers to questions may be.
Wow, drunk ford! Never thought I’d see that after your “karaoke” night. People say “drunk words sober thoughts”, so what are your thoughts on Calypso, and did you and Bill ever actually date? (Am I asking this cause I wanna hear ford drunkenly gush and rant? Yes.)
(due to everything going on during the Christmas Party, I didn’t get the chance to get to my inbox!
But, now that I have the opportunity, I will begin to answer questions that were directed to Ford while he was intoxicated.. “translated” text will be in the tags)
