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....

Special Waddles edition, cause I couldn't resist:

Happy first day of May! Summer is near, The April showers are gonna soon bring those May flowers, and it’s officially the start of the Month of May-bel! Like Stanuary, this month is dedicated to Mabel. And as we know, Mabel has had a pretty tumultuous relationship with the fandom, and I feel that it’s time we show our favourite pig and sweater loving girl that we do care.

I tried doing this in the past on GF Amino, but that community is so unorganized and small, that it didn’t work as well as I had hoped. I also didn't host it well. And, seeing that no one else is doing it, I’ve taken it upon myself to host the Month of May-bel 2020! With that, I’ve come up with my own themes for the 4 week period that this will go for.

Week 1 is about bonding. Show Mabel bonding with a character of your choice.

Week 2 is about adventure. Show Mabel in adventure mode.

Week 3 is about food. I think that’s pretty self explanatory, lmao. Finally, for week 4, inspired by how the original Mabel Pines Appreciation Week from 2015 ended, it’s your pick. Show Mabel how ever you choose. You can make fanart, write a story, cosplay, DIY, make an edit, etc. Whatever you choose, be sure to follow the theme of that week and the rules, stay SFW, and of course, have fun. Be sure to tag your post with #MonthOfMaybel2020 so that others can see it (and optionally, tag me too). You can make as many contributions a week as you please. This is not a contest, it’s all for fun, so do the best you can.

Let’s show Mabel that this fandom is not dead, and still very much cares! Week 1 starts on May 3rd. Good luck :)
