Hello world!

I am Calypso, a siren who currently resides in the Gravity Falls Lake! I do not have much knowledge of the human world, so apologies if I may be a bit confused. I will try my best to answer any inquiries you may have for me!

~•~

You know the siren mentioned in lost legends? The one that Ford used to date? This is her :)

Yeah it’s been a couple months! Sorry for our absence! We’ve all been a bit burned out and/or plotting and scheming. In the meantime, have this bit of Calypso lore for you all <3

[grunklefordpines]

Where did this rp go? I miss it :(

I’m sorry!

I miss it too, Dear Asker.

There’s been much going on behind the scenes..I’m pretty sure all that’s needed is my response haha.

I’ve been suffering a lot of burnout and stress aswell, but I try to get back here as often as I can.

It makes me happy to know that people still think about this blog ♥️ warms the heart.

[stanfordssiren]

[stanfordssiren]

It wasn’t meant to be.

:-)

[stanfordssiren]

WHATS COMING???

Hell.

[bill-ciphers-nightmare-blog]

I know I said this blog was back to regular roleplaying and since then it’s been mostly silent, but that’s just because I’m waiting for Ford’s and Calypso’s responses to A Thing, which may understandably take a while. That’s all! Just wanted to explain. Happy Valentine’s Day, make sure to offer your hearts to the glorious Bill Cipher and all that. :)

[stanfordssiren]

Calypso!

(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]

You came!

[grunklefordpines]

(He couldn’t help but give her a smile.)

I said I would—It’d be impolite not to.

(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.)

[stanfordssiren]

This was incredibly sweet of you, Stanford. I know things are somewhat…strained, currently.

[She reaches out, somewhat hesitantly, taking the piece of lamb meat Stanford held. She clearly was trying to avoid his gaze]

With everything Bill did while possessing me, I would understand if you never wanted to see me again. Especially after my song was used to…

[grunklefordpines]

Well, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t frustrated, at first.

(He writes in the notebook.)

—But,

When you’re so desperate—When you feel like you’ve got nowhere else to go—

And that—Cruel individual—Mabel settled on the name, “Wrongzilla,’ for them, I believe—

(Ford sighs and grabs the next mystery meat out of the cooler. He stares down at his hand that rests on the lid after closing it.)

—Someone was promising you something you thought impossible—You needed saving, and Bill convinced you that he was the savior.

A facade. A FRIEND, he claimed.

(He holds the next meat out, his hands trembling.)

I’ve been there.

[stanfordssiren]

[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.

[grunklefordpines]

(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.

I could have prevented it. All of it.

[stanfordssiren]

[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.

[stanfordssiren]

So you know all of the Greek gods???

There are some I have met briefly, though most do not interact with sirens. Most Gods were rather busy, and we simply never crossed paths!

[stanfordssiren]

This has been bugging me for forever, so I FINALLY figured out how to change text to a custom color (thank you to @floralstorms cough also the amazing artist behind the Calypso pfp and banner used for this account) so I will be updating the more recent posts I've made. All future posts will also have this new text color :)

[stanfordssiren]

How do you feel. About bugs. Specifically bugs from space .

Bugs are tasty! Though I have never tasted a bug from space before!

[stanfordssiren]

Hey girl let me take you to dinner I’ll chop off a leg and you can feast I’ll treat you better than ford ever could💐

Haha! You are very sweet, but I have feelings for someone else!
