This is so random but sometimes I just wish people would ask me stuff on Tumblr.. like about my art or my headcanons and stuff. Or just talk to me about what they think of certain characters or what they think of my headcanons.
I know I'm a small blog, but if you're seeing this and you checked out my blog, please please talk to me. I'll be sure to respond. You can talk under this post or ask with the "ask me anything" button. (I have way too much time on my hands lol)
what happened if either young stan or Ford consumes smile dip, do you think they would go through an acid trip just like Mabel since smile dip is like a drug like candy that gets you high
I think they would be just like Mabel, except their hallucinations would be very different. Ford's would be something along the lines of getting validated for how smart he is. Maybe he would see himself in history textbooks, or alongside great geniuses like Tesla and Einstein. Stan's hallucination would definitely involve achieving his dream of sailing with Ford; maybe he'd even get with a siren or something. He would also hallucinate that he suddenly won a lot of money out of nowhere.
The core difference between their hallucinations and Mabel's is that Mabel hallucinates her whimsy, while Stan and Ford hallucinate their deepest unfulfilled desires.
I hope you enjoyed my answer and thank you so much for asking, have a great day!
Have you seen a YouTuber use a specific voice for Swansea that you love? For me it’s Jack Manifold. The way he reads/voices Swanseas lines is so good. (Swansea is also my favourite character! He’s like my fictional papa)
I honestly never watched any YouTubers play mouthwashing, I went in blind so I don't really know, however I definitely want to check out Jack Manifolds gameplay now!
Also it's great to see another person who has Swansea as their favorite character! Swansea fans unite
I'm sorry I couldn't give a satisfying answer, but I really enjoyed your question! Thank you so much for asking and I'm really looking forward to more questions.
And again, I'll definitely check out jack manifolds gameplay of mouthwashing👍
How much do you think does Dipper doomscroll and how does it affect him?
Hmmm... I thought about this one and if Dipper were to doomscroll...
He would doomscroll sometimes, but would really regret it every time. He would think that it's taking his time to do more important things away from him and be frustrated with himself, I think. Or, he might criticize others who doomscroll but do it himself in secret and never admit it. It would affect him a lot because he would find it really hard to focus on other research he does afterwards. That's why he'd regret it every time, but not be able to resist the urge anyway. Because let's be honest, what teenager can resist that urge?
I really like Anya, but I really think that way too often, her character is just reduced down to her assault by the fans. I think they should try to think of her character outside of the assault as well. Although, at the same time, I understand it because since we play the game from Jimmy's perspective, it can be hard not to reduce her to that. And at the same time, I like thinking of her character without babying her like so many fans do. It is also very unfortunate that they do that. It makes me curious about her character when I think about what her background is. For example, she failed medical school many times; that's one of the only details we learn about her life outside of the Tulpar. So I like to think about it—maybe she didn't have the best resources to study, or maybe she was struggling, having to work a job and study for med school at the same time back when she was a student. Maybe she had another reason, like maybe she even was just not studying enough, or again, was going through something. But it really could be anything is what I'm trying to say. She could have any kind of backstory, and that makes her interesting. That makes all the MW characters so interesting in my opinion, because we are given little clues about who they are and left to figure it out ourselves.
Overall, I think Anya is really interesting to think about as a character...
Thank you so much for asking and I hope my answer satisfied you, have a great day and I hope you enjoyed reading!
Swansea is just such a good character. He's criminally underrated just because he's not attractive like the others (he is to me though, love that old man.🫡 Infact he's the most attractive one to me .....who said that ). He's so well written with his speech that he gives. That speech changed me. Just discovering about Swansea as a character and mouthwashing as a game changed me as a person. I'm just obsessed. Favorite character forever
So... I love this game and I love Swansea so much that I came up with a whole backstory for him. I tried to make it line exactly with the canon information we have, so it's as accurate as it could be.
I just love this game and think about Swansea a lot, so here's my backstory-headcanon for him fully compiled in this one post. Enjoy and please please tell me what you think of it!
Swansea was born in the year 1950. He was from East Boston and was Italian-American.
Before he was born, his parents were very impulsive people. They thoughtlessly traveled a lot and did many things without thinking about the consequences. When they traveled to the city of Swansea while his mother was pregnant, they loved it so much that they impulsively decided to name their child Swansea. Shortly after he was born, they started having money problems and then went broke. They struggled while Swansea was growing up. They couldn't just have anything they wanted; they had to make do with only the necessities.
His father was a negligent and tough man, the type who was hard to understand what he was thinking, and Swansea and him couldn't get along very well. His mother was a drunk and was reckless. Growing up in a poor neighborhood, Swansea always had a bit of admiration, but more so jealousy, toward people who were born with a silver spoon in their mouth. He wanted to get older and get away from his family as soon as possible. He didn't exactly realize it, but he resented them in some ways—like for the way they took opportunities away from him by being so thoughtless and not caring for the future. He had to grow up to survive on his street-smarts, and he certainly had those.
He first had a taste of alcohol when he was young, from his parents giving him a sip, but he didn't think much about it as a kid.
When he first bought himself a drink in high school, he promised himself he wouldn't be reckless like his mother. He told his friends, "I only touch the stuff when I win. A reward. That's it."
But the "wins" became harder to find, and the urge became harder to hold back. He started inventing reasons to celebrate. A good grade, a successful petty hustle on the corner—anything to justify the burn in his throat. He and his friends would get drunk together, shouting over each other in dark alleyways, convinced they were having the time of their lives. "To the future," his buddies would toast, laughing. "Whatever the hell that looks like."
He didn't attend college because they couldn't afford it, so he had to start working right after high school.
By the time he graduated, he was already a heavy drinker. He was addicted to the sensation that it would bring, feeling free and having the most fun he ever had. Shortly after graduation, his parents kicked him out. His father threw his bags onto the pavement. "You want to live like a king under my roof? Get out."
Without a stable job or anything to hold on to, he was practically homeless. With this, he fully gave into drinking, becoming a full-blown alcoholic at a young age.
As he spent his years as a drunk, laughing without a care in the world with his good men, he saw that time was passing by. One night, as he was passed out as usual, he was awakened by the bright lights of a street lamp. It felt like rays from God to him, and at that moment, he saw something: a vision of his bloated body found in a ditch. He felt like he had an awakening, terrified at the thought of seeing his end so clearly.
So, he did all the things a man must do. He got a blue-collar job, a mortgage, and a credit card.
He started working at the Tulpar in the eighties. Around this time, he met his wife at a diner where she worked as a waitress. They had a sharp but charming conversation. Without realizing it, he started frequenting the diner just to keep seeing her. They slowly talked more and more, and one day after work, he decided to ask her out. They went to the local park and then had dinner back at the diner.
"You sure are a fascinating man, Swansea," she would tell him.
After a year of knowing each other, he proposed, and they got married. It was nothing fancy—small, quick, and practical. His mother attended, but his father had passed away a few years back. His wife's family was supportive of their relationship and didn't judge him too harshly for his past. To keep his life on track, he attended rehab, making sure he never let go and became his old self again.
Swansea had always loved dogs, and when they got married, he achieved his wish of owning one. The pup later became a cherished family dog whom Swansea cared deeply about.
In 1986, they had their first child, a daughter. Later, in 1988, they had their first son, followed by their second son in 1989.
He made sure to raise them better than he was raised. He didn't want to be like his parents, and he surely didn't want his kids to end up like he did. He did see himself in his kids, and every time he did, it made him want to ensure even more that they wouldn't follow his old path.
Years went by like this. He had a loving wife and great kids. Eventually, he became a seasoned veteran on the Tulpar ship.
