the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

I spent a normal amount of time on these

Happy Month of May-bel! The prompt was "your pick" so I picked something... incredibly obvious to anyone who knows me 😅 Anyway, Mabel is obviously the best character in Gravity Falls because she is a Ghibli kid. sorry i don't make the rules.

She was already my favorite when I got back into Gravity Falls, but then i read this in Journal 3 and I knew we were kindred spirits:

This leaves me with so many questions. Has she seen other Studio Ghibli movies too? (Studio Libeccio...?) Like has she seen the ones that are generally considered cuter, like Totoro and Kiki's Delivery Service, MORE than 82 times? If not, why did her parents only show her the one that was generally considered terrifying according to most kids??

I bet Mabel would be the type of kid to try to fly on her own witch's broom. Or make her own Mehve out of foam and cardboard. Or put her hand in fire and get burned, pretending it's Calcifer. Or bring a wolf pup home after seeing Princess Mononoke. The hospital visits would be numerous XD

What is that, you ask? Could this also be subtle propaganda to peer pressure @hkthatgffan into watching more Ghibli movies? Maybe so....
