That explanation made a semblance of sense in your cold-addled brain; “Are- are- you going to wa-atch me ch-change or do you want to tu-t-ur-turn around?”
Once he turns around, you attempt to peel off the wet clothes, but your hands are solid rock claws, unable to grip or pull anything off. Oh you are even more irate now.

Ok so chapter 2 of the JFAU thing is focused on Beef and what he's doing, he finds Etho around 3/4th of the way through the chapter. Chapter 2 has been 3rd person POV. Chapter 1 was 2nd person (the you is Etho). Should I:
1- keep chapter 2 fully 3rd person and switch back to 2nd in the next Etho-centric chapter
2- make it 2nd person as soon as Etho wakes up (Etho is still the you)
I'm writing another chapter for my jackfrost au and can't decide how write beef's inner turmoil. He seems like the type of guy to talk to himself outloud but it seems corny as shit. I know cringe is dead but he is dead ass in the woods talking to a fire
Backstory time! I have been working on this since Thanksgiving but college gets in the way. This was originally more similar to Jack Frost (Rise of the Guardian's) backstory but the I got lazy and didn't wanna write another new character so have Etho being tortured by the universe.
Also its in the second person POV to try and achieve the nasty vibe Carlos Fuentes had going on in Aura (go read aura its so good)

"Also they're two halves of the same reincarnated soul but we don't need to talk about that." - I have have so many questions. Why the Axolotl did that? What was the purpose of split a soul in two halfs to make it reincarnate as two different people? Who the soul was before being the Stan Twins? How is possible to a soul reincarnate in two different people at the same time?
[Context: The tags in The Stan Twins post. Further hint here]
First of all, let me explain this; The Stan Twins of the Jerk Ford AU are split souls. This is a phenomenon that can be better explained by @nowimjustastranger who coined this term and whose AU often uses it.
Split souls are just as they sound; two people, one soul. Jerk Ford and Stanley would call it 'twinstinct', but that's actually a seperate thing, a psychic thing they inherited from their moms side of the family.
With Jerk Ford and Teacher Stan being so wildly different from their canon counterparts, the way I keep track of their traits is that I take one completely unrelated character and split it in half, giving some traits to Jerk Ford, some traits to Stan, and the rest they share in equal measure. Because one trait being more prominent in one twin does not mean the other one does not possess it at all, it just means it's less pronounced / present.
What are these traits?
Stanley
Duplicity
Lies as easily as he breathes
Shrewdness
Leadership
Willingness to fight/kill
Jerk Ford
Dodging the Draft
Eloquence
Intelligence
Pissing off the gods
Witty
Shared
Love for family
Loyalty
Cleverness
Seafaring
Trickster
Which soul was split in half and crumpled up until there were two entirely new guys who technically shared a soul?
Well, let's look at how the Stan Twins are 99.9% of the time vs 0.1% of the time:
Jerk Ford 99.9% of the time:
Jerk Ford 0.1% of the time:

Teacher Stan 99.9% of the time:

You can see the stark difference between the brothers here:
Prompt: "I can't mansplain, manipulate, malewife my way out of this one boys."
Stan: "Manslaughter it is."
Jerk Ford: "Manwhore it is."
Why would the Axolotl do this?
Bill Cipher was a god level threat, and Gravity Falls is a dangerous place. In the canon verse, the shows timeline is the only one where Mabel and Dipper make it to the end and defeat Bill Cipher.
And then there was a set up beforehand, the hard life that Stanley Pines lived, of being separated from his own twin for so long and the compounded resentment that lead to the Cipher Wheel failure. All of these events were necessary.
But... Was there a way to manipulate these preceding events and have the same result? Of both sets of Pines Twins succeeding in defeating Bill Cipher? Did Stanley really have to struggle? Was years of conning the only way for him to out-con Bill Cipher?
How many mortals had challenged Gods, and went home to their family in the end?
Anyways I have a special business token courtesy of Sparky's very legal and very cool business!
I'm not sure what Jerk Ford would do with this but he's welcome to cash it in for whatever he needs!
If Jerk Ford received any mysterious object he doesn't remember collecting himself, asking for, or receiving directly from a person he knows, he would throw it on the ground and start shooting it because he thinks it's a trap.
This is not the first time he's reacted to an unsolicited gift in a violently paranoid way.
Unless if it's Post Portal Era and a trusted source can confirm the legitimacy of the token - in that case, he'd give it Stanley since one of his hobbies is Numismatics; he likes to study and collect old/weird coins and other currencies.
He fell into a frozen lake as a teen while running from a bunch of mobs
Wasn’t the best swimmer but oldschool mobs were incredibly op so he chose the water
Severe frostbite on his limbs, ears, lips, and lungs
Runs severely cold because of this
He can live without the redstone air for a few days/hours but will have shortness of breath and slowly experience hypothermia til it spreads and kills him
Feels like a cold corpse to the touch, which freaks new people out so he wears the long sleeves, mask and socks (also to hide the nasty frostbite marks)
Cannot sleep for long because of nightmares and his body wakes him up so he doesn’t die (cold victims sleep and never wake up)
The “catfish” pulled him out of the lake and sent a light in the sky
Bdubs, Doc, and Beef found him from separate directions
