Remember what I said about Stan being an author? Yeah.
When I was a kid I had my own little world complete with languages customs a cultures, and always wondered what Stan’s world would be like. I’m thinking it would be more him and ford going on adventures as pirates, learning about new beasts fords reads about. Imagine if Stan, a couple years in his mullet era, decides to write about it. He writes about all their adventures and monsters they come across, and makes a book about it. More like a bunch of little books. Stan starts to make little picture books and publishes them as his conman self. Except this time it doesn’t crash and burn, this time, someone hires him to make them and sells them. He gets actual money. He stays. Over the years he becomes well known, a go to author for kids books like Robert munsch and dr. sueze. Ford comes across his books through one of Tates visits, and, through some strange nostalgia, becomes a fan. He knows it’s silly, but he can’t help it. He starts to send letters to the author, some Sam birch, and becomes good friends via letter. Thus prompts ford to tell Stan everything that’s going on before he calls him down and things go much better than they were suposed to.
Okay, but why is no one talking about the infinity die?
Ford said they’re banned from over 9000 dimensions. I feel like a couple of points should be brought up about this.
- He said “They” which implies there’s more out there.
- Traveling between dimensions is not unheard of wherever Ford went since there was a count of how illegal this die is.
^This means Ford might’ve had the capability of traveling A LOT of dimensions in 30 years without a Portal if he managed to land in one where dimension travel is more common.
- 9000 dimensions... Think about it. All we know of space itself and it’s vastness exists in only ONE dimension. The WHOLE DIMENSION or whoever was in charge of it, had to agree to ban this item.
- Ford wouldn’t have easily been able to get his hands on an item THIS illegal. He probably bought it at the Bazzaar on Deva a black market.
Conclusion? Stanley’s not the only one with a criminal history. Even if some of it had been under Stanford’s name.
bonus:
"nuts" from adventure time S04E24. This is such a great and lovely song and it just fits perfectly with these two.
ford meets mcgucket after 30 years!
Let’s all agree to call The Author “Ford” and our’s “Stan”
We’re so used to calling him Stan, and it’s still short for Stanley. Meanwhile Ford gave us the perfect way to not get confused.
Oh, btw
Author!Stan's new name is Grumple Ford. That is all.
"My name’s Stanford Pines.”
but I'm starting to think
what if dipper is so so happy and excited about the author at first but the author doesn't seem to care so dipper starts feeling rejected one more time okay I won't resist that
