yeah man I think god told me to come here? soooooo
(AU info under the cut!)
Stan gets a weird dream one night while he's in the south americas, where an axolotl, though larger than he'd ever seen, came to him and told him that his kin had trusted the wrong people and was about to make a horrible mistake. Stan wakes up, unsure if it's real, only to find many wild ones watching him. None of them are malicious, but it's still freaky.
The next night, he has a similar dream, where Ax warns him that a great danger is coming. But, Stan has the ability to potentially stop it. Stan actually asks what Ax is talking about, to which the Axolotl tells him that "your kin is bound to an ancient evil who wants to recreate chaos long forgotten, from a different world. But your kin knows not of this, thinking him benevolent. Show him differently, and evil's chaos may yet be contained."
Stan wakes up in a cold sweat, still not 100% sure that any of that was real, but throughout the day he gets little hints that Ax is still with him. So he calls Ford, by the Axolotl's wish, telling him that something weird is happening to him. Ford invites him under the pretense of solving another mystery (which is true, as Stan doesn't know if this is real.)
From there, two storylines start to unfold at the same time; the Axolotl trying to show Bill redemption and hope, who keeps turning him down and away, and classic Pines twins interconnected family drama.
On the new episode of the Mystery Shack Lookback podcast, we talk with Alex Hirsch, @fordtato, and BILL CIPHER HIMSELF about the Book of Bill, including some exclusives about unfinished or cut pages!
