“Their immense talent will no doubt be of great use elsewhere.”

And ofc, now Elon the big crybaby is threatening to sue Meta, because the people who he wrongly terminated are working for Meta.

What’s the saying? Karma’s only a bitch if you are 🤭

head tilting to the closest waiting customer, bill looks to them expectantly, brows raised. "HAVE YOU HAD COFFEE AT TWO-TEN BEFORE? YOU'D GET IT IF YOU HAD. IF OUR LOCAL BARISTA COOPERATES, I'LL EVEN LET YOU TRY IT! BUT YOU GOTTA CHUG!"

Days come and go but Sooyun finds herself in the comfort of Sohui often whenever she decided to venture out into the island even if it was getting a bit colder. she doesn't mean to but maybe it has to do with her own worries of other Imugi that she has clung to the older ever since they first met.

But it is also the case of Sooyun always asking her to go into the city to shop or go to a café. Though Sohui fits in with the humans more than she but it doesn't stop her from enjoying and continuing to learn from humans and the habits created around them. It's always something new to explore when Sooyun goes out.

[ How did this tall and cool skeleton get here in the first place? Who knows - every self-respecting Papyrus has hidden tricks and japes up their sleeves after all. Bell chuckled to himself with a glance at Cake, taking note of how he seemed rather confused and even a bit concerned, but he continues to pet this orange Swap with a smile and soft ‘NYEH’.

dipper can run as much as he'd like, but he can't hide – not from the nightmares that will catch up to him regardless of how much he may attempt to delay sleep. all those years ago, ford did the same in his desperate attempts to avoid being possessed – it's funny how the "smart" pines twins ("smart" and "pines" being paradoxical, really) can be so stupid.

and so, upon dipper falling asleep, just like every night he failed to avoid sleep in the months before, bill is there. not physically yet, no, instead, he offers a scene he's been waiting for –

a sky set ablaze, creatures with their flesh turned inside out howling unnatural noises, humans with shuffled features frozen in terror... the chaos he's been prophesied to bring for a billion years, and he will, even if it means millennia more of trying.

peer a little closer, and the star of the nightmare will realize the figures surrounding him are all friends:

his sister, melted in a frozen puddle, dozens of eyes scattered throughout her malformed statue, dripping with tears as four hands reach towards dipper.

his uncles, twin faces melded together in frozen terror, with a misshaped crown of six severed fingers.

then his parents, wendy, nearly every resident of gravity falls (among the few friends he held back home), each D̴̡̫̜͊I̴͚̊͒̎̈́͠S̵̡̺͖̓͑͝͝T̴̥̃̄͒͌̿Ö̵̖́́́̃R̴̜̳̣̈́͌͐T̵̨̤̮̫́Ę̵̘̹̭̯̾̔̀͐D̶̺̓̆ yet undoubtedly, them.

and after dipper has a long moment to reunite with his friends and family, bill appears behind him – this time, in the human figure he's been forced to inhabit in evermore, sitting upon another statue: one of dipper himself, but with too many limbs and a face devoid of any features, bleeding eyes and screaming lips and burning nose spilt on the flaming ground beside him.

even the superpowered humans are idiots!

imagine just spilling the fact that you can manifest things into reality simply by dreaming them to a literal dream demon - just because, for some stupid reason, you thought the sign saying they were a "fortune teller" was to be trusted. of course, you don't have to imagine it because that's what this idiot actually did - riley anderson, supposedly an "adult", yet more naïve than half the kids he's encountered.

he'd think most people were bluffing by claiming to have a power like that, somehow knowing the truth of bill's existence and playing some kind of trick on him to lure them into their minds, but this human had a certain lack of thought present in their gaze that promised honesty, even if it's accompanied by a side of stupidity.

naturally, a few nights after their first encounter (as to evade suspicion, if she even would have suspected anything), bill invades her dreams - shifting the illusion from whatever it previously was to one of complete darkness. not a flicker of light, not a candle in sight: if they try to look down, they won't even be able to see their own body. pitch black is boring, sure, but it's what she fears... and who needs a friend more than when trapped alone in the dark?

a boom of thunder cuts starkly across the silence, and rain begins to fall on riley - though, no lightning is seen to even briefly offer a respite from the darkness; it's only crashing thunder and heavy rain.
