Holiday Traditions Don’t Include Screaming
Hello! I’m mostly just posting this here so I can include it on AO3 - I’m writing a Gravity Falls fanfiction! (After two years of life trauma I return, once again, to Falls Fandom Feels...TO INFLICT MORE TRAUMA FOR THE SAKE OF FEELS!!! T,T) Anywho! I brainstormed this ages ago after reading the absolutely incredible works of @thelastspeecher​ who made Fiddleford a whole family of Gucket Goodness. He’s got Ma Gucket, Pa Gucket, a bunch of siblings, and even more kids/nephews/nieces. I keep forgetting some of these characters aren’t canon, Angie especially fits Stan to a T with spitfire and loyalty. Â
My fanfic is about what happens when Bill Cipher, eldritch-monster-playing-human, finally finds his ol’ pals Stan and Ford, who have long since joined the Mergucket merfolk family and become merpeople themselves. Did I mention that Cipher and his crew hunt merfolk for a living? And that Cipher had been actively looking for them? And has been planning exactly what he’ll do to them for the last ten years? Â
Also all of this picture is mine EXCEPT the awesome headshots!! Those are courtesy of @agent-jaselin​​ - yes I asked permission, even if it was a million years ago, and actually these drawings are just snippets of full-body pieces they made of the mergucket universe. They made art for all of Fiddleford’s siblings, I just didn’t include them because I don’t think Bill would’ve had everyone’s picture in the story I’m writing. But!!! If you want to see the merguckets, tails included, please do go check out their stuff! In short: credit for Gravity Falls goes to Alex Hirsch & Co, credit for the Mergucket universe and OCs goes to thelastspeecher, credit for the drawings goes to agent-jaselin. Here’s a link to the fanfic if you’re interested! https://archiveofourown.org/works/34871893/chapters/86830597
