Hi!!! I really liked reading your Dipcifica fanfic, I thought the idea of telling the story of their relationship in three different perspectives/AUs is super cool, and it made me think about a few things regarding your interpretation of the AUs...
Like in Reverse Falls, for example: Do you think Reverse!Mabel is obsessed with Reverse!Gideon the same way Gideon is obsessed with Mabel in canon? In canon, I guess it makes sense because it's a younger person crushing on somebody older similar to Dipper and Wendy, but in Reverse Falls, I can't help but to feel it paints Reverse!Mabel to be a bit creepy...
More with Reverse Falls, how was the process in writing Reverse!Pacifica? Do you see her as like a Mabel 2.0, or like someone who banters with Dipper like a classic enemies-to-lovers trope? I don't know, I just feel like Pacifica fighting Dipper takes away from is out of character for someone who's supposed to be inspired by Mabel in canon.
Lastly, do you have any headcanons for Reverse Falls and Relativity Falls? Outside of Dipcifica of course lol
Sorry if this feels like I'm dumping a bunch of questions on you, I'm totally cool even if you end up answering just one of them. Can't wait for part 2!
hey! first off—thanks so much for sending me an ask!! no need to apologize for asking too much in a single ask tho, it motivates me to keep writing when lovely people like you interact with my work :,)
so, i dunno if i had made this clear when i posted the first part of the fic, but i don't really ship mabideon? (is that the ship name?) but i wanted to keep a familiar dynamic between the characters while writing with the reverse falls au—so instead of mabel crushing hard on gideon, i wanted to focus in on the whole possessiveness trait, having mabel fixate on gideon as if he were like this cute puppy or pretty doll that she wants to keep all to herself because yes, i agree that not only is it weird for mabel to be crushing on gideon but also completely unrealistic for a twelve y/o to be into a nine y/o...
as for reverse falls!pacifica, i wanted to make her as similar to [canon] mabel as possible, but it doesn't necessarily mean that she'll avoid fighting at all costs. maybe it's me, but sometimes i feel like people associate mabel too much as the happy-go-lucky girl that is constantly kindhearted when this girl! can!! fight!!! so, even though pacifica will want to be the bigger person for the most part, she's also not a pushover—meaning that when the gleefuls wrong her, she's not gonna forget it.
as for my headcanons for reverse falls and relativity falls aus, i think i might to get started on standalone posts for those since i have a lot in my mind about them—but i will say that reverse!pacifica does crush on reverse!robbie OOP
