'Swap AU' Proposal

there's multiple reasons why i love Demisexual!Ford with stancest but i think the biggest reasons is because it would be so fucking funny.

Imagine the only person you've ever been sexually attracted to in your entire life was your twin brother. You're cooked, sir.

For @nekoaimy

"This is crazy!" Stan pants, running around a corner of the space station - a hellish shrieking sound behind him.

Ford follows after, even though it's difficult to move around in the bulky astronaut suit he's wearing.

It's yellow, Stan's is bright purple, and far in the distance the 'person' who was once wearing green has been replaced by a monstrous imposter.

...if he was ever human at all.

The green imposter already murdered Orange - they mistakenly ejected Pink, thinking her the alien slowly working through them all. Brown is dead, Black dead...Jesus, how many of them are actually left?

Stan would've never suspected Green, but then he never wanted to be on this station to begin with. This was all on Ford's head. He's the one who wanted to leave the Stan O' War II behind to go on this ridiculous mission.

He thought Stan might like to see the stars...

...as if he couldn't see them from the boat. But the sentiment was so romantic (even though Stan knows for a fact it was not) that he had to come. Besides, he'd follow his twin anywhere.

That's the thing about being incestually and idiotically in love with your sibling. You'll do whatever they want. Just to feel closer, just to get a taste of their attention, their affection...

Sad to be this old and still this stupid.

Stan and Ford catch their breath, far from the threat of the imposter. The ejection hatch is nearby... maybe it won't follow. It saw what they did to Pink.

Ford sighs, "I'm- I'm sorry, Stanley...I never would've imagined-!"

"Eh," Stan waves a hand, "We'll be fine, right? We've faced worse."

Ford's expression is grim and Stan doesn't feel very reassured. Not that he was expecting his brother to coddle him - not his style. But then Ford edges closer and husks, "There are worse things..."

Stan's not sure what he's talking about until Ford's lips are on his. Stan freezes, not sure what to do, how to react. He's dreamed of this, longed for this. And now it's happening.

Ford's tongue swipes against his, warm and soft and sweet and Stan trembles, drawing away with a whisper, "No."

The word encompasses the full horror he feels. The hurt. Ford's head angles to one side and looks confused, "Stanley..."

"You're not him," Stan's voice is hollow and he hears it as if from very far away. Ford just blinks, "How do you know?"

"... because he would never..." he trails off, then breathes, "No matter how much I want him to."

Ford...no, Yellow, just blinks again. Slower this time, "I see. I suppose I miscalculated..."

A watery, hysterical laugh escapes Stan, "Guess you did."

They stare at one another, a beat of tense silence passing. Stan whispers, "Where is he?"

"I think you know."

"...yes," Stan swallows thickly as tears, unbidden, escape, "I suppose I do."

He doesn't know why he repeats Yellow's earlier words. He doesn't know anything. He's dead, after all. He knows that now. The cold, dead weight of his heart tells him that.

"Shall I make it quick?"

The question just hangs there. And before Stan knows it, he's nodding his head, and he's unconsciously speaking, "Yes. It should be quick."

In a fast, lightning swift move, he tugs Yellow to him, holds him hard and fast as he intones, "For both of us."

He then slams the eject button, sending them both out into the cold, black darkness of space. The last thing Stan sees is the very thing Ford wanted him to see all along: the stars

On a random Winter's night in 1978–parked at a shopping center in some dead end town in New Mexico—Stanley stares at the holiday lights strung around the window of a vacuum shop and thinks about Christmas. He doesn't know why it makes him so miserable.

Relationship: Stancest

this is just a little something i wrote the other day while i was stuck at work during a snowstorm while no one else was there, so there's nothing of particular substance here but i had this visual stuck in my mind that i liked a lot. Merry Christmas, have some miserable stangst! ^_^

Nunca lo había pensando para ellos, pero creo que tiene sentido(?) Uno de los creadores dijo que había pensando la canción como desamor

"Enamorado tuyo" (In love with you) by Uruguayan band, Cuarteto de Nos, is such a stancest song, and it could very well be sung to each other when trying to get over their relationship, in denial that they love each other.

"And if you think I'm in love with you, that's an invention, I intuit, don't give credit to murmurs." This part is self-explanatory: they have always been known to have each other's back, and suddenly, it's not the case. Nobody believes they stopped caring for one another.

"Because I rarely call to tell you I love you, and more than once, I've done it to the wrong number" This represents the need that they have to contact one another but won't out of pride; Stanley's call that he hanged up despite desperately needing his brother, as well as Ford saving Stanley's scam number; the final straw between him and Bill when the demon called Stanley to tell him he was going to kill himself and remark he "never loved him." Ford was angry for a reason, Bill lied.

Also, the "and more than once I've done it to the wrong number" is them convincing themselves they love other people instead of their twin. Stanley's failed marriage and Ford's "Muse."

"Rarely is the time I get desperate to have you by my side, and that doesn't mean it has a meaning." This one is entirely on Ford being the worst person ever. At his lowest point, the only person who comes to mind who he can trust is Stanley, and once he is there, he only asks him to get away instead of embracing him. Stanley's clearly not the case. He misses Ford every single day of his life, but he can hide it from others.

"If you think love is what I feel, please, don't make a fuss. Don't tell your people about our issue. " This adds to Ford's paranoia and secretive nature. He wants all the details about his private life to be private.

"Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen. I have envisioned singing you 《see you later.》 Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen; I have a song that says, 《See you, lady》" This is Stanley after bringing Ford back and seeing how his brother just pushes him. He wants to pretend he is stronger than that, and he would part ways at any moment despite not wanting to.

"I rarely see your picture on my cellphone. It is still there because I'm too lazy to press *delete.*" This is the holding onto pictures and objects that remind them of each other. Especially Ford, who has a picture of them as kids in his coat, which was always in his pocket.

"I'm not that obsessed, to clarify, if you think that's why I sing this song." This is just them reiterating their denial.

Overall, I already love this song and find it so fitting, even if we make it not incestuous, it would still remark their relationship.

Also, because the Latin American dub was made in Argentina (which is next to Uruguay and very culturally alike) it's easy for me to envision them singing this song and fitting them so much.

That post that's like "stop writing characters who talk like they're trying to get a good grade in therapy" really blew the door wide open for me about how common it's become for a character's emotional intelligence to not be taken into consideration when writing conflict. I remember the first time I went to therapy I had such a hard time even identifying what I was feeling, let alone had the language to explain it to someone else. Of course there are plenty of people who've never been to therapy a day in their life who are in tune to their emotions. But even they would have some trouble expressing themselves sometimes. You have to take into account there are plenty of people who are uncomfortable expressing themselves and people who think they're not allowed to feel certain ways. It also makes for more interesting conflict to have characters with different levels of understanding.

Stancestttttttt! I have the need.. THE NEED FOR FORDYLEEEEE

kiss ‘im hard ‘til he sees stars!!

We know that Ford is incredibly guilty about Stan's death, cause he's the one who pulled the trigger, but what about Mabel?

She's the one who gave Bill the rift. And true she didn't know what it was, and true she was just a kid. No one blames her for what happened... no one, except herself

If she just hadn't needed that little bit more summer, if she wasn't so scared of growing up, Stan would still be here

Stan was the only one who tried to cheer her up that day. And what had he gotten for his troubles? He had to sacrifice himself at the end of the world just to save her and Dipper

Sometimes, she wonders if escaping Mabel land was the right call. True, she had Dipper to face everything together with, but neither of them knew how to face this. At least in Mabel land, she couldn't be used as leverage. At least when she was in Mabel land Stan was still alive

Mabel's a very forgiving person by nature. She would have forgiven Ford eventually anyway, but a part of her knows that the reason she forgave Ford so easily is because she blames herself, for all of it.
