ok so my httyd hyperfixation is also back and i realised i never actually showed my headcanon where in every modern httyd au my hiccup design is always gonna have 638361 piercings 😇

this headcanon of him exists in my ao3 fics too LOL

gravity falls — malay archipelago!AU

This AU is based off the maritime trading period of malay and indonesian culture + folklore.

in this AU, stanley pines is a fraud fortune teller/conman and mabel & dipper sailed down straits of malacca for the monsoon season at their grunkle's 'kampong misteri'.

mystery twins design WIP for one of my gravity falls AUs based on my culture and its folklore!

since alex hirsch himself posted a video on twitter of a caklempong gravity falls cover i was like YEAHHH NAW I GOTTA MAKE AN AU TO REP MY CULTURE

my context: im mixed indigenous and malay+indonesian and always grew up hearing stories and reading books about folklore from the malay archipelago — so what if i just *snap🫰🏼* malayified the pines twins

based on this tweet i made a few days ago

basically the nujum pak belalang folklore is that pak belalang is a conman (in this case of my AU it's stanley) and his child belalang (in my AU the mystery twins) helps him out with his plans to become a famous fortune teller for the raja (king)

there's so many more folklores i could add maybe even design pages of ford's journals to be pages of actual creatures from my culture such as orang bunian (essentially elves) and so much more

1. their picture with grunkle stan during their first summer together, framed up. also made dipper have piercings and a triangle necklace because why not :p

2. dipper's duffle bag with his classic pine tree as well as an 8 ball patch in reference to the 8 ball mabel used to make a choice on whether they should actually stay the summer (the patch ons were made by mabel)

also mabel would totally own a grumpy cat plush pillow

3. i just feel like they would own the mr mystery bobblehead and it just bobbles whenever they drive the van and it's just silly like that

lil older!pines twins wip except theyre in a vanlife aka what they call the mobile mystery shack

older mabel would totally use those lil water activated tattoos because shes scared to get actual ones
