#asterfallian

had an idea, so here's a post for that

if you're like us, you are way too interested in gravity falls

so here's a system of self-identifiers entirely based on gravity falls. can be used as genders but are not coined with that in mind. meant to focus on experiences of self, basically. if that means genders for you, then feel free to use them as such! we've got masc/fem/neu/null ones, we've got alterhuman ones, we've got system ones, all sorts.

^ Asterfallian, this one is based off of dipper pines. this is the masc equivalent for the system. name comes from 'asterism' and 'fall-ian'.

^ Cometfallian, mabel pines. the fem equivalent for the system. name comes from 'comet' and 'fall-ian'.

^ mackerelfallian, stan pines. a multi equivalent, left vague on purpose so one can identify with it in any way they choose. names comes from 'mackerel' (a common fan nickname for stan) and 'fall-ian'

^ sixfallian, ford pines. the null/neu equivalent. could be neutral, could be a complete lack of anything, could be a mix of the two. again, left vague so one can identify in any way they choose. name comes from 'six' and 'fall-ian'.

^ axofallian, the axolotl. for those whose experience cannot be described just with masc, fem, neu, null, etc. examples of what this could mean: a xenic equivalent, for those whose experience is different due to being alterhuman, for systems whose members identify differently (as major or subtle as these differences may be), etc. name comes from 'axolotl' and 'fall-ian'.

^ nightrealmian, the nightmare realm. for alterhumans of any kind. alternative to dreamrealmian. name comes from 'nightmare realm' and '-ian'.

^ dreamrealmian, the dream realm (made up name for the realm the axolotl resides in). for alterhumans of any kind. an alternative to nightrealmian, so folks aren't stuck with just 'the nightmare realm' or just 'the dream realm'. name comes from 'dream realm' and '-ian'.

^ riftian, the multiverse. for systems of any kind. name comes from 'rift' and '-ian'.

^ anomfallian, the anomalies of gravity falls. for those that feel outcast in any way. name comes from 'anomaly' and 'fall-ian'. (for context, a large part of gravity falls is learning to embrace and appreciate differences. we felt the anomalies of gravity falls were a good way to represent this)

^ scampfirian, the scampfires. for those whose true body/form does not line up with a human body. one can be mostly human or have a human form in a nonhuman way and still identify with this. we'll be honest, we just chose scampfires for this one because they're our favorites. the scampfires are living campfires, with the wood logs forming their legs. name comes from 'scampfire' and '-ian'.

^ geoditian, the geodites. for those who are disabled in any way. the geodites are little living geodes that give off faint light and melodies. we thought they might fit the role for this well! they're hardy and tough and can provide comfort in darker moments. name comes from 'geodite' and '-ian'.

^ gravityfallian, gravity falls. for those who identify with the system and/or gravity falls in any way, but don't care to identify with any of the specific labels here. name comes from 'gravity' and 'fall-ian'

the idea of all of these is that they're for folks that want to incorporate gravity falls into how they describe themselves and/or just like the terms/flags. as for names for the system, we're thinking maybe 'the fallian system'?
