How would Dipper and Pacifica react to fusing for the first time?
Give me Your Answer
Part of Valentine's Day
Bnha x Gravity Falls Crossover
I'm still not sure about which person should be which character but I'm %100 sure that Mina'd be Mabel Pines in another universe.
I'm gonna make another sketch for this au, I kinda like it. (Though Im still not sure who should be Soos. Maybe Kirishima?)
ALSO I'm actually not sure about if Katsuki should be Pacifica or Wendy🤔 if he is Wendy he will have an axe but if he will be Pacifica, then will be able to act mean🫠
You know what would be funny?
If Pacifica unintentionally became somewhat friends with Fiddleford.
Like at first he's just known as the hobo she had to hold hands with during the whole Bill fiasco. And then he becomes the guy who bought her parents house. And Pacifica not even thinking about would sometimes walk by her old house because it was her home originally for 12 years. And Fiddleford he'd notice her stopping by and looking at the home from time to time and then one day he's outside and he sees her walking towards the gate.
Fidds doesn't hesitate to call out to her, startling her and Pacifica sees him and she gives him a look that's supposed to be unwelcoming but it's hard to take her seriously when she's blushing from being embarrassed at having been startled. She'll huff and stick her nose up in the air and dramatically storm off in an effort to save face and as she's walking away Fiddleford calls out-
"Stop by again sometime Pacifica!"
And she stops, whirls around and snaps-
"As if old man!"
But despite her saying that, Fidds once again finds her coming back around. And he humors her, getting reactions out of her and finding her amusing instead of intolerable. This continues on and then before Pacifica and Fiddleford realize it, he's invited her inside and they continue their strange friendship. Fiddleford learns that Pacifica's pretty smart and kind despite her snarky and uppity attitude. She just hides it beneath a mask of "I'm better than everyone."
And Pacifica learns that Fiddleford isn't just the crazy town weirdo. Instead he's a genius and to her surprise, beneath his somewhat timid, polite, nature he's got a dry sense of humor and hidden snark under the surface. He's also incredibly sharp and keeps it up his sleeve as his ace.
They bond over the snark and jabs, and they teach each other things without realizing it and for awhile it's this tentative thing till one day Pacifica shows up on Fiddleford's doorstep. Looking miserable and red eyed and Fidds he doesn't hesitate to bring her inside, his dad alarms kicking in much like how they do with Tate. He doesn't say anything, and she doesn't explain it. But an unspoken barrier has been crossed and neither of them mind. They don't knowledge it, mainly for Pacifica and her refusing to do so.
But Fidds doesn't mind it. In a way she reminds him of his son, with the way she handles things. Pacifica would tell him in her own time, and Fiddleford was more than patient with her taking her time.
Afterwards they're basically in a strange mentor/mentee/paternal/unspoken adopted daughter kind of deal.
“Why do you care so much about what your stupid parents think”
more of my art lol
the bill one is from a while ago tbh I forgot I made it
Okay, I knew I was going to get back round to asking more questions.
To all of the characters, if you had the ability to play any other character in the show, who would you want to play and why? It's similar to my last question, but I guess I just have a theme of questioning.
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Honestly, I don't know if any of the other characters are worthy of being played by me and if I'm worthy of playing them, but I'll still humor you and answer your question. Out of all of them (besides Pacifica, obviously), I would choose Wendy. Surprised? Maybe you are, maybe you aren't. I don't care either way.
The reason I didn't choose Mabel is that while she's my favorite character, I don't think I would be a good fit for her. Yeah, I know. "What? Patricia being honest and modest for once?" Don't get used to it. I still know my greatness and won't tone it down for anyone. Switching back to the subject — I don't radiate any of the positive energy needed to capture her personality. Which is why I believe I would be a better fit for Wendy. She's calm and relaxed, so I wouldn't have to muster up any terribly strong emotions for my performance as her. I could just be...carefree. No overally dramatic acting, no fake persona. Nothing that screams extra required. She can also have a lot of bite and snark from time to time, not caring what those in charge think. She's a rebellious spirit, which could be really fun to play. What I would give to be able to break free and truly be myself for once.
You're welcome,
Patricia

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
If I were able to play someone else, I would probably choose... Hmm... Oh! Candy and Grenda! They were super cute and fun in the show, I'd love to be them. Also, Grenda has a lizard! Do you hear me people? A LIZARD!! Aren't they the cutest things? No offense, Waddles, you're still adorable and my favorite animal.
Best wishes,
Mabel <3

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
That's...actually a really cool question. And, to answer it, a character I would like to play — if I could — out of the entire cast would probably be Stanford. He's the only other character besides Dipper who has a deep interest in the supernatural. He's passionate about it and his character's gimmick revolves around his love for the weird and peculiar. He kinda reminds me of myself in that way. I love horror not only because of how it's dark and eerie, but also because how it delves into different ideas about the paranormal — the strange and mysterious. I love it just like he does.
Sincerely,
Mason

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
You're asking me who I'd rather be if I could be anyone else? Well, I would have to say that, out of everyone, I would wanna be Dipper. He's a neat kid with a good brain and knack for solving mysteries — a fun character to play!
Best regards,
Deon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Huh. That's an interesting question. I like it! Though, it definitely takes some thought and I left most of my brain behind at school. Now, I'm like some mindless, slow zombie. Rawww (or whatever noises zombies typically make; I don't study their text language)! Haha!
Don't worry, though — this zombie is still going to answer your fanmail! Speaking of which, I would wanna be...hmmm...Mabel! Yeah, I'd wanna play her. She seems cool as in she's fun, has a good sense of humor, and owns a pig. You DON'T understand just how much the pig point matters to me.

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
That's a seriously good question, dude! I approve and will take my solemn duty to answer it very seriously. (That wasn't too many "seriously"s, was it?) Out of all of the characters from the show, I would want to play Melody. She's extremely sweet and nice and has excellent opinions on the important topic of lunch meat. All very good stuff to me in a person and character.
Cheers,
Alza

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
In all honesty, there is no one who I'd rather be than the fellow I'm already playing. Not to say that none of the other characters are interesting — they all have their own merits — it's just that none of them call out to me like Fiddleford did. It's probably the fact that he reminds me the most of myself out of all of the characters (plays a banjo, is typically disregarded by his peers, and comes from the South) that I feel so comfortable and at home playing him. It's like how you might be drawn to the people you find most relatable — the similarities make you feel like you belong there, that there's nothing wrong about your presence. Even if you don't quite fit in with everyone else, it's okay because you have someone there who's like you. The other characters don't give me that feeling and I don't know if I would click with them as much in terms of acting.
Respectfully,
Hadron

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
I know that you've been waiting for my response to your question and I'll justify the unbelievable amount of time you spent with an answer. What other character would I want to play? That is the question. Would I want to be kind and loving Mabel, anxious and nerdy Dipper, greedy and plotting Stanley, spirited and chill Wendy, some six-fingered nerd, or literally any of the other hundreds of characters? (Seriously, there's a lot.) Well, the answer is simple and quite obvious. I mean, come on. Who could I possibly rather be other than GIFfany? She's a yandre who's willing to kill just to ensure her one love belongs to her and only her, which would be thrilling to play. She's cunning and manipulative, and hides who she truly is behind a mask of a sweet and sensitive digital girlfriend; her persona the dangling lure of an anglerfish. Plus, I just enjoy acting as villains. Hopefully that doesn't say anything about me, haha!
Yours,
William

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Let's see — who would I want to be out of the endless cast of characters? Oh no, it's such a hard decision. I can't decide, I think I'm just going to go with — yeah, I'll quit messing around. I would want to play Tad Strange.
...
What? You want me to explain why? Ugh, people these days. They think they're so entitled to knowing everything. Well, fine. I'll humor you. I chose him because I would get paid a lot of money for doing basically nothing! It would be an easy job with an excellent pay.
Goodbye,
Stan

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
If I was granted the virtue of the ability of being able to play any other character, I would — in the end — come to the conclusion of finding Agent Powers to be the most desirable role. The idea of playing the governmental official who has a part in the reveal of the portal is one that brings me utmost delight. However, I still would like to note that I prefer the character I was selected to act as best.
Cordially,
Dr. Ford
dear cast, what was your hardest episode to act for (if one applies)?
Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
I don't understand why you would want to know (why are people obsessed with seeing me vulnerable), but I suppose I'll entertain my fans. You better appreciate it! The things I'll do for my parent's public image.
I would have to say that the most difficult episode for me to act in was the "Northwest Mansion Mystery" episode. Why? Well, there's multiple reasons behind it, for your information. First of all, Mason is a jerk. ... Okay, fine, maybe that was a bit of an overstatement. I'll rephrase — he can be an annoying smart aleck when he wants to. And, for some reason that only he himself will ever know, he decided to be one for the episode. Constantly. So much so that some scenes from the episode weren't planned and instead some of those "times when actors weren't acting" thing. So what if I maybe fired some insults back? Horror is dumb. It's a scientifically proven fact. Besides, he knows that I'm a natural blonde! Yet, he keeps on making comments about how I'm not. Ugh. He's lucky that I don't mind wasting my time with him with how he acts.
Secondly, the episode hit a bit too...personal for me. I may or may not have had a few mental breakdowns that were only calmed down by Mason and the sense of security he gives me, but there's no proof of that. Like, at all. So, don't go poking your nose around any rumors, gossip, or cut takes. Or else I'll sue you. I'm not joking. I'm sure Mr. Stan would be more than willing to be my lawyer for a cut of the profit.
You're Welcome,
Patricia

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
This was a good question! Here — have a sticker for the amazing idea! ^^
Take it! It's a gift between you and me. Anyway— I would have to say that the episode "Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future" was the most difficult for me to act. I'm new at acting, so I didn't know how to make myself emotional or cry at will. Because of this, the ending ended up, admittedly, taking a while to get done. But, everyone was really nice about it! Mr. Stan even gave me some private, one-on-one lessons to help for the scene. It was SO fun. I learned a lot from him! He's the best! I should probably give him a thank-you sticker...
Best wishes,
Mabel <3

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
I don't usually have much trouble when it comes to acting due to my lengthy experience in the film industry. But, I would have to say that the hardest episode to act for was "Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future." Usually, I'm able to detach myself from the other cast members and get deep into the role, but the idea of saying something that was supposed to break Mabel's (the character's) heart when she acted so similar to, well, the actor her was just...
...
It — It took a little longer than it normally would have to get into character for the scene. I don't want to talk about it anymore, nor do I have to. Please don't be like other "fans" and choose to respect my privacy. We're not just people acting for your entertainment — we're real human beings, just like you. I shouldn't have to state that.
Sincerely,
Mason

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
In all honesty, the answer came to me right away — like a dream! Except it's not a dream, since it's the hardest episode I found to act for, heh... Uh, proceeding on, the episode I had the worst time acting for was "The Hand That Rocks the Mabel". Funny, considering that it was my (character's) debut episode, isn't it? It was difficult for me for two reasons. One, it was my first ever time acting with a main role, so I put a teensy bit of pressure onto myself to be perfect. Not too much, but still some. And, two, I — from time to time — got a bit weirded out from the lines and actions I had to act out. Gideon's a lil' creep. I knew this already, of course, but I still got slightly uncomfortable when I finally had to act like one. It's different knowing something about a character beforehand than having it actually play out in front of your eyes. 'Specially if you're the one playing it out. But, I digress.
Best regards,
Deon

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
Thank you for question. I hope that my answer doesn't disappoint, but I can't really think of an episode I had the hardest time acting for, dude (neutral). Like, I had a pretty chill time acting for all of them. Sure, I may have had a little bit of a trouble once in while, but nothing that really stands out. Y'know what I mean? Kinda like when you get all of your dream presents and you're asked to pick a worst one out of all of them. You can't really decide — you feel the same about all of them, but in a positive way. Uh, so yeah. Still, thanks for asking!
Cheers,
Alza (or "Alzamirano" for formality?? Not entirely sure on how to do this, dude...)
P.S. should I have maybe written that extra bit as a "P.S."?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
I took the moment to think deeply about the question before writing my reply, and I can confirm that I indeed have one! For me personally, I reckon that the episode I had the hardest time acting for was the "Gideon Rises" one. I will be the first one to admit that I'm a huge klutz. Whenever we had to shoot that one scene where I was building Gideon his ginormous robot, I would keep slipping, or dropping stuff, or just straight messing up. We had to do...what? Ten retakes? I don't remember the exact amount. Not that I've developed memory problems like my character, heh. Remembering a specific number just wasn't my top priority.
Respectfully,
Hadron
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
Ooh~! Interesting question. You don't have the intention of stirring up drama, do you? Ah, I'm just messing with you. Haha! Of course you do! Who doesn't? That's why there's an entire genre for it: People crave tragedy and melodrama. Why, it's a fact about society at this point. Why else do you think there are so many angsty fanfictions on WattPad and Ao3? Because people enjoy watching other people suffer!
Oh, and just to clarify, I'm not one of those people. Cross my heart and hope to die, stick a cupcake in my eye (Pinkie Pie, no one could understand your greatness). Sure, I thrive in the chaos and perhaps may cause some of it from time to time, but when it comes down to the serious stuff? Like bad things happening to real people? I'm not going to stand by and make it my own form of entertainment like everyone else.
...
Oh, that got depressing quick, didn't it? My apologies I'mnottrulysorry! Anywho, back to the reason why I'm writing this whole thing — the hardest episode for me to act for? Well, kid, I'll tell ya. It would have to be "Weirdmaggedon 3: Take Back the Falls". That episode was the main time I struggled out of all of the times I acted for the series. And let me tell you, it was smooth sailing with very little sea monsters threatening the peace when working on the show.
To be more specific, the scene in the Fearamid's Penthouse with Ford was the one I had a difficult time with. Trust me, there's nothing I like more than a challenge, though! Some technical difficulties were overdue after such easy workload and I was prepared for them. Totally. 100%! You better not doubt any of what I'm saying because it's all very much true and if you do you're stupid (jk, I'm sure you're smart if you rightfully have interest in people like me). There definitely was no extra tension between the two of us, and I definitely did not want to bolt the room the moment we were forced to stay onto the same set together. And I definitely did not think back to those days when we met each other in secret. Nor did I remember the twinkle in his brown eyes when he looked at me like I was worth something, stirring up feelings within my heart. I especially did not think of how much I missed him, of how much I regretted our (my) decision to part ways.
Aside from that, everything was a breeze! Acting was — what's the phrase? Oh, yes! Easy peasy lemon squeezy! After all, an actor as talented as moi barely ever has a hard time with the art he perfected.
Yours,
William

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
Ha! You wanna know the episode I had the hardest time acting? You wish. Sure, the question itself may come from innocent motives, but one thing I learned is that if you give the public an inch, they'll take a mile. I reveal what episode was the most difficult for me and why and the information will be spread all across the internet — like a weed growing in a garden! Then, it'll become one big game of telephone where the information gets abridged and summarized and translated to the point where it's phrased entirely differently with some people's personal thoughts added to the mix as if I spoke them aloud. After that, either it's used to turn me into some meme — damaging my reputation and self-worth, but don't tell Ford that — or it'll be used to fuel some controversy or type of slander that only those type of people are capable of coming up with. So, sorry, but I ain't got anything for ya. Try again next time.
Goodbye,
Stan

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,
I compliment you for both your curiosity and decision to take matters into your own hands in order to discover some answers for yourself. Not many people have the confidence to inquire with me about such a subject (though I am absent of any clue why), so I shall reward you for your boldness with an answer.
After thoroughly pondering my many experiences acting for scenes from the show, I have come to a firm and definite conclusion. I can say with absolute certainly that the episode I had the most difficult time acting for was "Weirdmaggedon 3: Take Back the Falls" due to the existence of the Penthouse scene between William and I. I'm sorry to disappoint you in such a manner, but I refuse to give an explanation as for why. It's a personal matter that brings me much discomfort every time my mind thinks of it.
Thank you for your understanding.
Cordially,
Dr. Ford

(I'm sorry that this took so long. I ended up being very busy today. I'm planning on eventually writing a fanfic for this AU once I get to the final part of the "Meet the Cast!" series and one of the chapters delves into how William and Ford felt acting out that one scene. Thank you so much for the ask!)
Okay, okay. I thought it would take me longer to think of a question because I'm terrible at asking questions but;
To all of the characters in the actor au; who is their favourite character? Why?
Dear Majorinfanfiction,
You want to know my favorite character? I could take a while and pretend that they're all as a great as each other, but I'll save you the time. In truth — and this is an objective fact, no matter what Mason may say about it — the best character is Mabel. You don't see many characters like her so full of heart and fun that don't come off as annoying in media. People can be soooo depressing nowadays. The world needs a little sunshine. Ugh, that was so corny. Mabel (the actor, not the character) is rubbing off on me.
You're welcome,
Patricia
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Hiiiii!!!!!! Thank you SO much for the question! I love answering them. Anyways— My favorite character? Umm, this is a difficult one. They're all so amazing in their own way, y'know? If I had to pick only one, I think I would maybe choose Waddles. Yeah, sorry, I may be a bit biased, but come on— Look at his face! Look at his cute, widdle feet and chubby cheeks. Tell me you don't like him. Try to. You'll find you can't because he's the BEST!
Best wishes,
Mabel <3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
I appreciate you going out of your way to ask me this question. If I were to choose my favorite character out of all of them from the show, I would probably choose Bill Cipher. May seem strange at first (considering the character I play and all), but it most likely stems from the fact that I love horror, and Bill? He feels like he stepped straight out of some weird, psychological or body horror film. I'm honestly suprised he was deemed "child-friendly" enough to be placed in the show, but if it allowed us to end up with an excellent character, then I'll just reap the benefits from a flawed system. If I only would be able to do the same for capitalism. Just kidding, I don't have to worry about that...yet.
Sincerely,
Mason
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Thank you for sending me this question! I don't tend to usually receive many. I'm not as popular as the other actors, but in all honesty, I'm fine with that. Who's my favorite character? Probably Mabel, but not in the same way as my character feels toward her in the show. I just think she's really sweet with a heart of gold; that's all. I hope your day goes swell.
Best regards,
Deon
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Hi. I just want to say: Thank you so much, dude (neutral). It warms my heart to know you all have some interest in me as a person. Now, who's my favorite character? Hmm... This is a serious, chin-holding question, I'm gonna be honest. I'd probably go with Mr. Stanley Pines. He's a fun dude in the show with a good sense of humor. Very cool. Thanks again!
Cheers,
Alza (or Alzamirano if we're going to be formal. Are we?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
Hey there! Thank you kindly for sending this me this ask. I don't believe I could express just how greatly I appreciate it. Onto the question: "Who's my favorite character? Why?" Well, I would say that it's Pacifica Northwest. A lot of people tend to write rich folks as heartless and shallow, as if there's nothing human about them and they're just a soul-less name. I say that's just not true. Every human being is a human being! They are have a heart hidden beneath their skin that beats as much as yours. There's a person behind that wealthy name who lives and breathes. Yet, when it comes to fiction, writers will act like there's not. The writers for this show didn't though. They gave that rich person a personality behind the name and that name is Pacifica.
With gratitude,
Hadron
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
This was one of the most interesting questions out of my mountains of fanmail, so I shall answer it first (I'm half-joking, I love and appreciate all of my fans; don't attack me with pitchforks). Who is moi's favorite character, you ask? Why, I shall delight you with a response! You better write this down into the history books. History is happening (hence what books they'll be written in)! My favorite character is...drumroll please...🥁🥁🥁🥁
...
(Wait for it.)
...
(Come on, you can be patient. Sheesh, give a triangle some time.)
...
None other than Stanford Filbrick Pines! Everyone give me a round of applause for answering a question with personal thoughts tied to it! And maybe a margarita while you're at it. No, I will not be explaining why or elaborating on my answer. The show's community is built on theorizing, this is practically a homage to that and certainly not an attempt to avoid introspect.
Yours,
William
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
You want to know who my favorite character is? Fine. I'll give ya three hints. You get it wrong, you owe me five dollars. Deal? Deal.
1. He appeared at a later date
2. He has fingers
3. He's a nerd
There you go. If you said anyone other than Stanford, then pay up. Ya owe me money from the bet that you definitely, 100% agreed to. As for why he's my favorite, he reminds me a lot of my brother! Nerdy, socially awkward, and a huge stick in the mud (but in an affectionate way).
PayPal me,
Stan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Majoringinfanfiction,
I would like to start this letter by informing you of just how honored I am that you chose to send fanmail of me to all people. I was doubtful that anyone would enjoy my performances and insecure of my worth in the acting industry. However, these thoughts were proven to be quite incorrect just moments after the episode of my first appearance aired. I cannot state just how much everyone's support has meant to me. With that said, I will now proceed to answer your question.
I would, in full confidence, state that Stan is my favorite character due to how much he's like my brother. They truly are similar; it's very uncanny. Yet, it also only strengthens my fondness of the character. I hope that my response is found satisfactory.
Cordially,
Dr. Ford
—Meet the Cast!—
(Part Four: The Neglected Rich and Loved)
(Trigger Warning: Patricia's section contains allusions to child neglect, abuse, use by parents, manipulation, and devaluing of self-worth. It doesn't go too heavily into detail, in my opinion, because the entire post is supposed to be structured like an article written from an outsider's perspective, but it's still there. Please consider either skipping the whole thing together or scrolling down to Alzamirano(Actor!Soos)'s section if you're sensitive to this type of content.)
Patricia:
Patricia has made her mark in the world as one of the most famous tweens of this day and age. Originally, her family was just your average one, living in common mediocrity. However, one day the young blonde asked her parents if she could participate in a beauty pageant, believing that it would be fun. They decided that it couldn't hurt and prehaps give their unplanned mistake of a daughter to become something worthy of their attention for once, so she was enrolled into the annual "Sprouting Elegance" contest. She immediately won and was gifted millions of dollars as the cash price. The amount of money was unlike any her parents had seen before, the luxurious life it allowed them to live was addicting. Thus, they became to crave more of it, desiring more and more, so that they would never have to live how they had before. Driven by greed Deciding that it would build character, they soon began to enroll her in numerous other pageants, collecting waves of money. They started a family blog to post updates on their life, displaying just how lovely and wonderful their family was, how they were living the dream. Patricia certainly dreamed; she dreamed of a world where she never came up with the idea, where she had better parents.
Eventually, her mother came to her and suggested developing a career in something that would let her put her pretty face to even more good use — acting! It would build an even more stable living for them her and maximize their her success. It was perfect! There was no reason to decline, no reason at all. So, of course, Patricia accepted and went along with whatever acting roles they were able to find for her. I mean, why wouldn't she? They knew best. Besides, without them, she would have never earned the stardom everyone else could hope of receiving. Without them, she was nothing. They created her. They were the ones who molded her into the perfect child, into who she was today. The least she could do for them was every. Little. Thing. They. Asked.
It wasn't that difficult for her to rise to the top as a child actor, considering she was already famous and of much status. Her most recent role was playing popular, rich girl "Pacifica Northwest" in the TV series "Gravity Falls". When asked on she felt about the character, she gave an intriguing response.
"It's complicated. And to-tally none of your— ... I mean, it's...personal. I feel like I know her very well and not just because I'm her actress. Though, I probably know her the best out of everyone solely because of that. That's all I'll say. You figure it out if you're so obsessed with mysteries (and me), weirdos," she said when delving into her implied love-hate relationship with the character she played.
She can frequently be found hanging out with Hadron (actor of "Fiddleford McGucket"). When she first arrives on set — her dad leaving as soon as she walks through the doors to there — she stands around, her eyes scanning through the clusters of people hanging about. She then will walk on over to where Hadron is ( typically talking to a bushing Stan [actor of "Stanley Pines"]) and tug on the sleeve of his fern green, button-up shirt in order to get his attention. He will turn his head and smile at her, and the two will engage in conversation. The mere sight of him always makes her eyes light up and twinkle, though she will try to act like she doesn't care.
She's also decently close to Mason (actor of "Dipper Pines") and his best friend, Mabel (actor of "Mabel Pines"). Mabel will occasionally drag Patricia over to where she and Mason are, and they'll all talk together as a trio. Mabel will knit a sweater, using Patricia as a model as she does, and will chatter away about stuff that delights her as the blonde and other brunette exchange amused looks, entertained by their friend's antics. In reverse, Patricia will kidnap Mason and paint his face with makeup, promising to turn him into the 'most beautiful boy who's ever lived' as Mabel giggles loudly at the scene. (Mason either swears at her the whole time or fumes in silence when this happens; Patricia only smirking in return.) When their peppy friend is not around, the duo will fire insults at each other like the sun won't come out tomorrow (some of them were used as inspiration for the actual script of the "Northwest Mansion Mystery" episode).
Also, contrary to popular belief, Patricia's hair really is naturally blonde.
Alzamirano:
Alzamirano, or commonly referred to as simply "Alza," was cast as the actor of "Jesus 'Soos' Ramirez" from the show "Gravity Falls". He was an orphan as a kid before he was adopted by a nurturing family. Their love and care allowed him to blossom into a kind person who always looked out for and after others. In order to give other orphans like himself a chance and a better place to grow up than in some of the terrible orphanages they're placed in, he started his own orphanage. That way, he could try his best to help the community and know he was giving every effort to truly assist people.
However, running an orphanage wasn't cheap, so he took up multiple jobs. He became a cook, a bus driver, a tour guide, etcetera, etcetera. Eventually, he stumbled across an ad requiring understudies for a film. It stated that they didn't have to be professionals and the salary was reasonable, so he decided to sign up. Last minute, the main actor he was an understudy for ended up calling off, so he had to take their place. Stepping into the spotlight and performing felt natural, and the crowd loved his show. Soon after, he started to get calls for jobs. He had found a career he could truly become successful with and gain a steady pay from to keep his orphanage stable and thriving.
On set, he's very a chill guy who gets along well with Mabel and, in all honesty, who wouldn't? He inquires about the living conditions for all for the children and has been seen to check in on Patricia specifically on a regular basis. He's bought multiple clothes and packages of food for her after realizing that she pretty much wears the same four pairs clothes all the time, just in different combinations, and how unhealthily thin she appears to be.
"Do you really have to try and spread gossip? Don't you have anything better to do or is your life just so sad that you live off of other people's lives to be fulfilled. Anything and everything about her personal life is personal! It's in the name. She's not required to share anything with you, nor am I. Why Mr. Alzamirano does what he does and what he suspects, if anything at all, is none of your business. You want to know something? He's a nice person and the stuff he does is nice. There you go. There's your hot scoop. Go crazy over it," Mason defensively stated when we questioned him about the Alza's gifts for Patricia.
He's friends with Stan and appreciative of the constant donations he sends towards the orphanage he runs.

—Meet the Cast!—
(Part Three: Representatives of the South)
Hadron:
Hadron is a popular country singer known for his genuine, southern charm. His signature instrument is the banjo, which can be heard playing in the background of most of his music. Raised in the South, he developed fond memories of the countryside and decided to share its beauty with the world through his songs. He's been ridiculed by numerous people for his accent, background, and style, but is determined not to allow them to break his spirit. He's proud of where he's from and isn't willing to change that, no matter what the haters may say.
Hadron is the actor of the character "Fiddleford McGucket" and was chosen for the role due to being a southern icon. Through his acting, he gave Fiddleford some country charm that ended up well-received by the audience. It wasn't limited to just on set either, since he would spend time in-between shoots and breaks playing his banjo; filling the room with austral tunes.
"Sometimes, when everything is bor-ing, he'll just grab that...guitar-thing...and play it. Some people will suddenly stop talking just to listen, and soak it in. I... I like it when he plays it. The music is nice, and he's not as lame as people say. Don't make a big deal out of that, though," Patricia (actor of "Pacifica Northwest") noted about the brunette singer.
A side gig he has is teaching students on how to play the banjo after much interest being expressed in the instrument once his songs became popular. Patricia, in particular, decided to join his courses, intrigued by the melodies he made. He is said to be a very calm and patient teacher, though prone to sarcasm and bitterness.
He's been viewed to be closest with Patricia, Stan, and Ford out of the entire cast. The young blonde talks to him often, asking for advice and requesting his opinions on things. She'd never say this, but it's clear that she looks up to him. (Possibly seeing him as a father figure in light of her parent's neglect.) Stan has a tendency to flirt with him and occasionally Hadron will reciprocate the acts, usually leading to the former person turning red (Ford is oblivious to this behavior). Whether this is just friendly banter and play, or something more is left to be seen. He also quickly became friends with Ford, due to their similar introverted natures and nerdiness.
Deon:
Deon was cast with the role of "Gideon Gleeful" for the series. He has a history of acting in several action and historical films, but he usually played a background character in those. Gideon is his first major role and because of that he was eager to give his greatest performance.
"He was always so bubbly! Like, I could just pop him! Haha. But, seriously, he tried really hard to do his best. And I think that deserves a sticker," Mabel energetically insisted when talking about her fellow cast member.
He, too, was raised in the South. However, he ended up moving up North when he was young, since his parents desired to give their son the best opportunities possible and wanted to go where potential was bustling as a result. And they sure did take advantage of the fresh start! When Deon had begun to display both enthusiasm and promise in acting, they were discovered by a talent scout, who offered jobs within the realm. Once Deon was firmly sure this was what he wanted, his acting career took a start.
Deon tends to himself, typically sticking to the corner unless it's his scene, and doesn't socialize much. However, when he does, most of the time it's with Mabel. He finds her optimism and confidence to be infectious (in the best way) and admirable.

I fvcking adore Russian Official Dub Dipper, because in that iconic scene, where he calls Pacifica "the worst" and then immediately shuts the door, people decided to change only one word but that makes Dipper SO MUCH meaner than Off Eng Dub.
He literally says "You're a bitch". Or stinker. LIKE, WHAT. You can't imagine how much I love this decicion.
Btw, yes, we have a few words which are translating like "bitch" in English, and the one he said in show is just an insult (still mean though), however the other one is a curse word. SOMETIMES I LOVE OUR TRANSLATORS.
I finished Gravity Falls on 4/28/21 and BOY I’M EXCITED!! (Also crying, it was emotional.) Anyway, have a Pacifica and Wendy. Depression is raiding my art skills so I don’t have that much stamina right now but whatever. This was fun. Definitely making more fan art ;)
so anyway
DIPSIFIC'S BANNER!!
(I'm a big fan of theirs, btw.)
Love me a character that is still sassy after character development
Reverse Falls Screenshot Edits
Feat. Irrational Treasure, Little Gideon and the Iconic Bill Frame from Dreamscapers✨
I like the idea that instead of wearing a different piece of clothing every day, Pacifica wears a different pin on her Jacket every day, and, like Mabels Sweaters, she makes them herself
Also Mabels and Dippers Parents don’t physically show up in my Version of the AU, so all the housework that Gideons Mom does in the Original is instead done by Will!
Original images under the cut!
Dakota goes :3
Some animatic practice 👩❤️💋👩
In The Book of Bill, Dipper has his nightmare about his parents having... Maritial issues? Do you think Dipper tell Pacifica about the possibility of his parents spitting up? I know Pacifica tells her problem with her parents with Dipper.
On another note, angst dipcifica ideas?
Loooong post ahead. I think I got a little carried away.
I like the idea that Dipper and Pacifica, as they become better friends and stuff, both confide in each other - we only really see Pacifica confiding in Dipper in the show and books, which makes sense because she has one episode and one story focused on her (The Golf War was more about Mabel than her, though it was definitely important for character development) but just her telling him about her own problems probably wouldn't be sustainable for a long term relationship (whether romantic or platonic) (he's not her therapist lol)
I realize that's not really answering the question, that was just my tangent about what I headcanon (fun fact about me: I don't have very many headcanons because I like to keep my options open for what I write/draw about - I know headcanoning something doesn't automatically mean you can't ever go against that headcanon, it's just a random thought in my second tangent in this answer) so for if he tells her about his parents possibly splitting up: Maybe. I'd say it depends on how much their relationship (again, this could be platonic or romantic, even if I know we both ship them lol) has developed since the events of Northwest Mansion Mystery and Face It. It also could depend on how long it's been since they met her; she was still a bully to Mabel (and mean to everyone, but Dipper mostly cares about Mabel) and even if both the twins forgave her he might not be willing to open up very quickly to her. On the opposite side, she's already been vulnerable with him twice, which could make him more willing to open up in response to her, especially since it's (if we take his search history in BoB as canon and not something Bill made up, which I am generally inclined to do for when he was talking about anyone other than himself, but there's still the possibility that he was just Making Stuff Up) pretty much canon that he doesn't have friends outside of Gravity Falls and Mabel.
Tl;dr it depends on how you interpret them and their relationship post-canon. I would say that he'd probably tell her. Not right away or anything, but if they keep in communication with each other, eventually.
That was a lot of words, but I guess I have a lot of thoughts about these guys?
As for angsty Dipcifica ideas . . . this one's a little harder for me, since . . . well, I'd say I'm not a super angsty writer, though I've definitely done some. But I've come up with a couple!
The two of them go on some sort of adventure/monster hunt, get into a fight, and maybe they're distracted from something attacking them or one of them pushes the other and they fall in a hole. They get injured and the other one blames themselves for extra angst points! Could probably work with either in either role, though if Pacifica is the one who does NOT get injured there could be angst about her mean girl era, and if Dipper's the one who didn't get injured he could have angst because of his lower self esteem.
Other characters disapproving of their relationship. Not just Preston and Priscilla, who can definitely put a lot of angst (mostly on Pacifica) and you can definitely do a lot of different things with that relationship, but also some of the Pines's friends and family, like Stan, Ford, and Wendy, who can disapprove because she was a bully. Or even the Pines parents if they're a little older and Dipper takes Pacifica to meet them! Why the parents would disapprove, I have no idea. Well, I have some ideas, buuut I digress. This could put pressure on both of them and maybe they consider ending their relationship but ultimately decide that they're happier with each other (and they'll always have Mabel's support. She's the #1 Dipcifica shipper.) Unless you want to take it a really angsty route and they do break up. Maybe they get back together, maybe they don't.
They're dating but they're both super insecure about themselves and this culminates in . . . idk, maybe they hide their insecurities which leads to trouble, or maybe they sense the other's insecurities and try to help them, but it ends up backfiring and hurting them instead. Then they have guilt and even more insecurity!
I think that's all I got for now, though I'll probably be thinking about more Dipcifica angst stuff for a few weeks, but this was fun! I hope the wall of text wasn't too hard to get through and that it wasn't too confusing!
So I have an abandoned WIP that I wrote roughly 17 thousand words for and I was looking in my notes doc for it the other day and found some . . . funny(?) stuff I thought I'd share. You'll probably know why it's abandoned if you make it to the end of this post.
So I pre-write my tags and notes. The notes I write during or after relevant chapters. So here are most of the non-relationship tags:
Graphic Depictions of Violence, F/M, Teen And Up Audiences, Hurt/Comfort, Angst with a Happy Ending, Whump, Heavily Implied Romance*, Torture, this got way darker than I was anticipating, No One Is Okay, And That Includes The Author, Preston and Priscilla Northwest's a+ parenting, Probably Medical Inaccuracies, I Tried Okay, the graphic violence warning only applies to a couple of chapters.
*The heavily implied romance tag was for Stan/Lazy Susan and Pacifica/Dipper
Here's the first note: Hi there! This is the story that’s been distracting me from my main one, Mindscaperers.* It’s a little different and I’d like to state right off the bat that <b>this story gets fairly dark and I will NOT be giving warnings for individual chapters, so MAKE SURE TO CHECK THE TAGS. </b> ** On a brighter note, this story is fully finished so you won’t have to randomly wait several weeks for the next chapter.*** I’ll try to post roughly two a week until I’m done. This is going to become a series, but this is the main plot. The other stories will probably be about side characters as well as the consequences of this first story.
*it was not the only thing distracting me from Mindscaperers. I was also reading a lot of fanfiction for fandoms I'm not even in.
**I said something similar in my recent Infinity Train story, We Only Broke The Train A Little Bit (More Than You).
***Past Me wishes. I ended up with like . . . five or six chapters. Maybe seven?
My notes get better - or worse, depending on how you look at it.
The end notes for chapter three are as follows:
me: shipping is weird
My brain: pff imply stuff so hard
Me: but they’re kids
My brain: pfffffff
Me: I can’t write Stan.
My brain: make him a major character
Me: no violence
Also me: let’s write the most descriptive violence I’ve ever written–WAIT NO THAT HASN’T HAPPENED YET
Let’s write a cute lighthearted story–AHHHHHHHHH never mind
And the penultimate and also best/worst note from the end of chapter four: Yes, they’re coping with being tortured by flirting with each other. Don’t judge me–them. Don’t judge them.
. . . and now we know why I abandoned this story.
But there's on more note! At the end of Chapter 5, I wrote about the fairy family I included in my story. (I'm going to write these fairies into a different story because I love them so much. But not this story.)
Here's the note: Zaelynn is the firstborn and Annabel is the 870th child. Also, sistren is an actual word.*
Pretty sure it's basically "brethren" but specifically for girls.
So yeah. That was . . . I'm honestly concerned about the me of 6-7 months ago.
Here I'm going to lore dump about characters in the Half Reversed Reunion AU. Actually, it's more like a personality dump.
Mabel and Gideon are pretty similar to their canon counterparts. However, Gideon, like in the traditional/regular Reverse Falls Gleefuls, has enslaved Will.
Will Cipher is reverse Bill Cipher. He's usually whiny, I think, but in a lot of stories the Gleeful twins literally torture him so . . . he can be a little whiny.
Pacifica is Pacifica Southeast. She and Mabel became best friends after a brief mini golf rivalry when they were younger. She's much more cheery than her canon counterpart but can still be sassy.
Dipper is much more serious/solemn than canon, and he's not a murderer or a torturer like many Reverse Dippers. He has the tendency to just Say Things.
I know I said Gideon earlier, but here I'm going to write that he's spoiled and generally gets whatever he wants, plus the amulet he has is corrupting his soul like in canon. Dipper is closer to his mother than he is and he's jealous of that. It's his own fault because of reasons that I may make clear here or I might wait until I write the story to reveal.
Soos is similar to canon, except he works for the Gleefuls. Half the reason he stays around is to keep an eye on Dipper, though.
Robbie is the cashier in this universe and Wendy is the handywoman. They have an on again/off again relationship that's going nowhere. They both have similarities to their canon counterparts but Robbie's a little softer, so to speak, and Wendy's a little more edgy.
The story is focused on the four kids so I haven't spent much time on what the Stans are doing. Stan is running the Mystery Shack and Ford is traveling around studying, probably.
"And Dipper learned the best place for romance is in a burlap sack."
That quote haunts me daily.
. . . therefore I had to draw them. Though I might go back and edit it some more. (The drawing only took the top half of the page so I drew a different frame of Lost Legends on the bottom but it's unfinished. Also, I misspelled top as otp which I think is funny.)
[An image of Pacifica and Mabel, standing next to each other. Pacifica is wearing a light blue dress and has a flower in her hair. Mabel has a yellow headband and is wearing her shooting star sweater and a dark blue skirt. The girls are looking at each other. Above Pacifica are the words "Reverse Pacifica." Above Mabel are the words "Normal-ish Mabel" cut off partway through "Mabel."
This morning I was thinking about AUs or something because I came up with "Reverse Falls but it's only half reversed so Pacifica and Dipper are reverse but Mabel and Pacifica are the same but it's also Reunion Falls so Dipper's grown up with Gideon." Partly brought on because I like Reverse Falls to an extent, but all the characters are so out of character. Which IS part of the AU, I know that . . . I just want to stay true to the characters' core personalities because they're the ones I know and love.
So now I can add the half-reversed Reverse x Reunion Falls to my ten thousand other AUs. Yes, I will write this too. Maybe not a whole story. Maybe just scenes. (Who am I kidding, this'll end up a story with twenty thousand words of lore. Why do I do this to myself.)
Meant to post this a while ago but couldn't find it. This was just me messing around (I can draw better than this lol)
So this is cursed to me but I'm glad someone else sees the resemblance between our two one dimensional* bleached blonde purple wearing I-don't-think-Stella-is-a-valley-girl-tho stereotypes who have a rivalry with a main character and get redemption arcs (Stella's doesn't happen every time but it still counts)
*who later turn out to be not actually one dimensional!
Male Jesse x Stella = Dipcifica (graviyy falls)
~~~
Dipper: It's dark. Like your soul.
Pacifica: My soul is glow in the dark, actually.
Trying to figure out how I want to draw Gravity Falls characters
