Because those were the first characters the game gave me, and inertia is the most powerful force in the universe  

Because “dozens of options” is too many, and every time I thought about changing my lineup, decision paralysis set in  

Because I’ve finally gotten the hang of these ones, and learning how to play as anybody else feels too much like work  

Because this is the only lineup where everybody’s default outfit colour coordinates with everybody else’s  

Because all of the other playable characters are uncomfortably heterosexual  

Because I don’t actually enjoy the gameplay, and the cheese strat I’m using to trivialise all the fights requires this exact lineup  

Because each of these characters resonates with a particular hangup or anxiety of mine, and playing video games is cheaper than therapy  

Because my sole criterion for deciding which characters go in my party is “whoever has the most hit points”  

Because there are exactly enough recruitable ladies to run an all-girl comp, and by God, that’s what I’m gonna do  

Yes hello, I am an actual adult who still gets excited about the birthdays of fictional characters. :’) (If this looks rushed it’s because it is. I drew most of this today because I’m bad at planning, haha!)

Why would Stan have a red screwdriver he cared enough about to notice if it was missing? He hardly seems to notice or care when way bigger/more expensive things go missing or get destroyed.

Then we see where the red screwdriver ended up and it appears it was just sort of artless dialogue and characterization so that Blendin could be introduced. A little unusual for a show like Gravity Falls, but hey, writers get tired, too, right?

But THEN, fast-forward to season 2, and we see Blendin’s Game. In the last minute, we see the red screwdriver again:

AWW, so it’s the red screwdriver that led Soos to the Shack and ended up getting him the role of adopted son handyman.

No wonder Stan actually cares about that screwdriver. Mystery solved.

And that’s it, right?

WHAT

Timmy’s parents were 100% sure that Timmy was going to be a girl before he was born, as seen in the episode Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker.

Cosmo seems to be the only other one in the know about this, and has baby pictures of Timmy in a dress on hand

Then, in the episode The Boy Who Would Be Queen…

When Wanda does, inevitably, transform Timmy into a girl to teach him a lesson…

Cosmo immediately panics.

AND in the episode “It’s a Wishful LIfe” when Timmy wishes he never existed…

The Turners have a daughter instead.
