The FIRST idea goes as follows:

Ford doesn’t stop working on the portal after Fidds leaves. He and Bill work together to take down the barrier around Gravity Falls, Bill putting together some half-assed excuse to justify why they would need to do it.

They get the portal started up and Bill starts the apocalypse, BUT he puts a new barrier around the town essentially shielding it from Weirdmageddon instead of containing it. He removes Ford’s memories of the betrayal, and since the town is safe from the chaos, Ford doesn’t realize anything is wrong.

So he and Bill have this little domestic life in their cabin in the woods, and he’s completely oblivious to the fact that outside the town is the end of the world.

But now Gravity Falls is considered somewhat of a safe haven for survivors, so people start moving there to get away from all the chaos, and Ford is reunited with his family, who immediately realize something’s wrong.

Will he realize what his husband’s been up to this whole time? Who knows

The SECOND idea is EVEN ANGSTIER

Because what if Bill trapped Ford in a fantasy bubble during Weirdmageddon. A fantasy version of Gravity Falls where everything is perfect, he’s not fighting with his brother, he’s still friends with Fiddleford, he has a perfect little family and a perfect husband and a perfect life.

And he doesn’t even question it, because the fantasy starts replacing his memories with new fabricated ones, fake memories of his perfect life with his perfect family.

Until Stan and the twins show up, and they’re terrified because they just witnessed Bill start a literal apocalypse and yet there he is, smooching it up with Ford of all people. And he acts like it’s all normal and fine, because to him it IS normal, but they all know it’s not.

Ford is confused why his family is acting weird, not realizing that they’re not the fake family he’s gotten used to, the fake Stan he talks to all the time, the fake Dipper and Mabel who are best friends with his fake kids.

And they almost want to stay too, because they want to live this perfect life, but they know it’s not real, so they do what they can to escape and rescue Ford.

And when they finally do burst the bubble, Ford is absolutely RUINED because he realizes it was all a lie, his perfect family, his perfect husband, his perfect kids weren’t real and he doesn’t know what to do with himself because he misses them.

Even though they’re not real he still has some of the fake memories, going on fake monster hunts with them, teaching them how to play the fake piano, watching them play with their fake friends and the fake Dipper and fake Mabel.

And even though it was all a lie he misses it and he’s heartbroken over the fact that, even though they were never real, he’ll never get to see that perfect family ever again.

And I’m sure when they face off against Bill, Bill tries to rope him back into it, promising to bring back their perfect family and their perfect life, promising that it could last forever if he gave up the equation.

And even after they defeat Bill he’s still plagued by dreams about that life, and he’s fucking ruined over it, and this ends one of two ways.

Ending 1: He finds out the kids from the bubble were actually child versions of the real kids that he and Bill had that he didn’t know about, and so he tries to create the relationship he should’ve had with them if Bill hadn’t kept them apart.

OR Ending 2: Like Mabel’s dream boys, the fake kids somehow survive the popping of the bubble (and even the closing of the rift), though they’re very confused about what happened, and Ford winds up finding them and taking them back home (though I don’t think he’d tell them what happened to Bill just yet).

Holy shit that was a lot of words. Can you tell which plot I’ve spent more time thinking about

Thanks @acerobot for inspiring this. This was all your fault

Also here’s what I think Cassie and Aaron (the kids) would look like if they were Dipper and Mabel’s age

This is 32-year-old CASSANDRA CIPHER (29 during canon), the oldest daughter of BILL CIPHER and STANFORD PINES.

She’s what one would consider a mad scientist, usually holed up in her personal lab working on whatever latest invention she’s come up with, though she rarely finishes them. Her favorite inventions are a gun that shoots spontaneously combusting bullets and a computer system that can transmit data across time, allowing her to listen to music and look at memes from the future.

She also definitely does NOT have personal issues tied to her self-worth and does NOT blame herself one bit for Bill’s “death”. Nope. Not one bit.

She does, however, carry on the family tradition of getting blackout drunk at Mexican restaurants and karaoke bars.

Other pastimes include hunting monsters and making crafts out of animal bones and glitter glue. She doesn’t trust easily, but if she comes to like you, do not accept a friendship bracelet from her. It will be made out of rat intestines and deer teeth.

She also has a pet pig! His name is Kris P. Bacon and she stole him from the Mystery Fair. She also cast a spell on him that turned him telepathic, because she can, so now she has a telepathic pig. Mabel loves him and arranges playdates between him and Waddles all the time.

Favorite song lyric:

If CRAZY equals GENIUS

Then I’m a FUCKING ARSONIST

I’m a ROCKET SCIENTIST

Well chat I did it. I saved the-

Wait, wrong script.

I finished my fankids! It took 8.5 total hours of work spread across 2 days, but they’re finally done!

In order from left to right, we have Cassandra, Aaron, Dipper, Robin, Lee, Millie, and Brianna.

The first three should be relatively familiar to you all by now, especially Cassie and Dipper, but the last four I haven’t talked about because they haven’t been born yet!

Now that I’m done with my guys, if anyone out there has their own Billford fankids they want to share, I would love to draw them! I’ve already got quite the list, but I’m always looking for more!

- Mod Princey 👑

(PS: Individual closeups under the cut!)

Okay, so MAYBE I don’t actually know what I’m doing. WHO CARES!

I can still be a good babysitter! Come on, HEXIE, let’s go set some shit on FIRE!

- CASSANDRA 🔥

Cassie is a terrible babysitter do NOT let her near your children

Anyways thanks to @fordpinesofficial for letting us draw Hexagon! We hope you like it :3

We probably won’t keep drawing for every ask cuz that takes too much effort, but we’ll do our best to keep up for as long as the hyperfixation lasts! Hopefully lessening the workload will make this last longer

As of right now, Bill has been sent to live with the Pines family, completely powerless as one final test to see if he can truly be better. Though he’s only been gone for three years or so, he’s spent much, much longer in the Theraprism.

Oh yeah, and he’s no longer a human. Him being a powerless triangle is significantly funnier.

But yeah, we’re back! Send asks, do whatever, who cares! Just don’t be a dick (unless you’re playing a character, in which case, please make that clear)

Each character will sign their name on a post so you’ll know who’s talking! Here’s a guide to each signature:

- BILL CIPHER ⚠️

- CASSANDRA 🔥

- Aaron Cipher 👁

- Dipper 🌲

- Mabel!!! 💫

- Stanford Pines 🖋

- Stan Pines 💸

- Fiddleford McGucket 👓

This blog is run by a two-man system, and whoever’s in front will handle the out-of-character posting. It’ll mostly be the same person (me, Princey), but there’s always the off chance that Kat will have to step in. Here’s how you know which one of us you’re talking to!

- Mod Princey 👑

Replicating the Gravity Falls artstyle got really tiring after a while so I said fuck it we ball

Here’s a Cassie, Aaron, and Dipper that I drew in my own style, which I’ll be using from now on

You still up for helping with the DIpperpocolypse, right? - p

HELL YEAH!

My LITTLE BROTHER owes me one for getting the COMMUNICATOR back for him! Even though the OLD MAN shouldn’t have had it in the first place, since it’s MINE!

The best PAYMENT is obviously to let me in on the CHAOS! IT’S THE FAMILY BUSINESS BABY!
