Context

Sock Opera

Mabel doesn’t find out about Bill possessing Dipper

Bill destroys Journal 3 and throws Dipper’s body off the water tower

Dipper reenters his body just as Bill exits

Ride the Cyclone

Dipper wakes up in an abandoned warehouse of sorts with the souls of alternate versions of his family members who died

Competition run by the Axolotl ensues to decide who gets to come back to life

Dipper is voted to go back to life on the grounds of he just started puberty and deserves to see that life gets better once he settles into his adult body

Yo Girl

Someone finds Dipper’s unconscious, injured body near the bottom of the water tower and calls 911

Sheriff Blubs and Deputy Durland show up

Situation reported to Stan

Stan gets Mabel into the Stanmobile and shuttles her to the site of the accident

Blubs and Durland tell Mabel what happened as gently as they can

Bill has successfully drafted evidence to kill Mabel and frame it as a suicide

At some point, Stan and Wendy find this evidence and worried confrontation occurs

Bill possesses Mabel?

Return and Recovery

Dipper wakes up in the hospital

The Ride the Cyclone plot might have been real or it might have been some sort of weird dream

Time travel mechanism?

Everyone thinks he committed suicide

He was unaware of Bill’s plan and is very confused as to why everyone’s being so cautious with him and why everything hurts, etc.

Why does Mabel seem so guilty?

A lot of confusion

It eventually gets cleared up

Answering this ask for you, so that it's visible like you requested.

grahh okay sorry to ask this. i sent you the outline for my yo girl/ride the cyclone au and i guess i repurposed the doc. do you think you could just answer the ask with literally any text so i can send it to my friend? she’s helping me write it

Of course! I'm so sorry about doing this so late, though. I had an extremely busy day today and was unable to find time to open Tumblr.

I'm only familiar with Dipper and Mabel, so I'll focus on them. I feel like you would maybe relate to Dipper with his anxiety and how he's constantly worried about stuff. With Mabel, I'm leaning more towards you seeing yourself in her with her creativity and grand imagination. They're also most likely autistic, so there's also that.

This unrelated, but I was doing that one tag game you tagged me for where you match the letters of your username with the first letters of various characters' names, but ended up discarding the post, since I couldn't think of any names once I got to "writing."

It's quite frustrating to watch people simplify PMMM down to a dark and edgy version of the magical girl genre where everything is terrible, watering down all of the nuance and complex writing, when there's so much more to it than that! The very ending of the original anime is about hope winning over despair through an act of great compassion and self-sacrifice. It stays true to the roots of the magical genre while still differentiating itself from it. Yet, so many people brush this aside and dismiss it as the most depressing series ever.

You're personally between "OH!!" and "YAY!!!" for me, FeFe! :)

Three days ago, I stumbled upon this Smiling Critters AU by @notglue-9 which was named "Mourning and Mending." Thus far, it has actively consumed my mind. I intend on writing an analysis essay on why I love it so much after I have released the first chapter of my "Gravity Falls in the Making" fic. However, I still want to talk about it at the moment, so I'll be rambling about the AU a little bit in this post. This will essentially be a short analysis.

First and foremost, though, I must provide some context. The AU revolves around all of the Smiling Critters' — Dogday and Catnap's specifically — lives in the afterlife following the events of Poppy Playtime: Chapter Three. Catnap desires to make amends with all of them and repent for his previous sins, voluntarily starting his own redemption arc of sorts. One by one, he slowly gains the trust and forgiveness of all of the SC members — Dogday being the last and hardest one to convince into giving him another chance (for undeniably understandable reasons). As they all move on, their pendants begin to heal and fix themselves up. In this AU, the state of the medallions reflects the mental state of the wearers. The worse the mental health of a character is, the more cracked and broken the accessory will be.

Now, the reason behind why I have fallen in love with this AU is due to just how nuanced the writing is for the characters and how it does villain-redemption-afterlife AU right. Since the goal for these types of AUs is to have the villain become viewed better in the eyes of those they wronged, people will typically twist the story to make it so the villain was actually innocent all along and simply controlled controlled against their will. This way, any resentment the victims were harboring becomes invalid, making the 'redemption' clean and easy to accomplish, since it's made to appear like one was never needed in the first place. This can be seen in several fandoms (particularly the Gacha versions of them) like Undertale, FNaF, and Little Nightmares. You see, Frisk/William/Six never harmed anyone — they/he/she were/was possessed and manipulated by Chara/Glitchtrap/Shadow Six. Excuses like these are created solely for the purpose of justifying them. It would've been so easy for the creator, Not Glue, to take the same path with Catnap, yet they didn't. While "Mourning and Mending" does indeed utilize creativity liberty and the fact that it's an AU to its advantage in painting Catnap in a more sympathetic light, it never dismisses the trauma he caused the other Critters and instead forces him to be held accountable for it. I personally find that honorable and it leads to a much more interesting story.

Anyway, that was my short ramble and/or analysis on my most recent AU hyperfixation. I'll most likely copy and paste the two body paragraphs for my full analysis essay when I end up writing it. I just wanted to gush about it right now.

If anyone's curious or intrigued in the AU, here's a playlist I created of all of the animatics, animations, and comic dubs I found on YouTube for it. I would highly reccomend checking it out, even if you're not invested in the lore of Poppy Playtime. I mean, I'm not, yet I have become obsessed about it.

Thank you so much for reading this!

Thank you for the tag, Major! ^^

I watched horror movies with my dad growing up as a little kid and never found a single one of them scary until she had us view one of the Insidious movies. It was the first time one to ever genuinely creep me out, and caused my mom to ban her from watching horror movies with us for quite a few years. It didn't ruin my interest in horror and darker media, though.

Just an experiment. Reblog if you actually give a fuck about male victims of domestic violence and rape.

Of fucking course

What sick bastard doesn’t

[romanticizing-writing]

Reblog if you actually give a shit about anyone who's suicidal or depressed.

no one should scroll past this

PlayersUnited mentioned on Tumblr! Their(?) channel introduced me to "Heathers: the Musical" and helped spark my love for "Gravity Falls."

you KNOW a song goes hard when you envision the animatic you would make for it, had you the skill and perseverance  to ever commit to such a project

[romanticizing-writing]

We are now moots! :D

Yay! 🥳

@monitorkernelaccess

I'm sorry responding a lot later — I don't remember getting the notification for your reblog, but I might've and just didn't notice. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for writing the original propaganda. I extremely hope that I didn't come across as rude or like I hated your propaganda in my reblog, since that wasn't my intention nor was it how I felt. I just was really passionate about Sayori winning and felt that she could maybe have a better chance if things were phrased a bit more specifically.

I want to, once again, thank you for giving her propaganda, since no one else seemed to. I also wanted to clear things up because I was extremely worried about my tone being misinterpreted by the writer of her propaganda (who turned out to be you).

Who is Most in Need of a Hug?

Vote and reblog to support your favorite!

Propaganda below the cut

Sayori:

Sayoriiii my friend sayori <33333333 she is described by a close friend as a "hug monster" and it is true! she loves giving and getting hugs! she shares her "hug energy" with those she cares about <3 and sometimes she has it pretty rough because she is a high schooler with depression. so she could really use a hug, you know?

and uh. in the main game's story? things do not go well for her. she has a pretty terrible time, dies, and haunts the narrative. then when she gets to come back and finally have her happy ending? some meanie comes and takes it from her again! well, but then again, that "happy ending" isn't the kind of thing she'd normally want under typical circumstances, and really she's just acting out because she's under horrible existential stress, so it's probably a merciful thing for that to be taken from her. but still, real real rough.

also look at her face. look at her. isn't she such a cutie pie? doesn't she seem so sweet? don't you want to pull her in for a big bear hug?

Nope! The song is "Control" by Halsey. Good guess, though :)

I can't think of any songs I know with similar meanings to the one you described.

Tag game!

Summarize a song badly and try to guess the song prev did. I’ll start:

Guy interacts with autistic girl, gives her a chance to infodump about her special interest (which happens to be a psychological horror movie), and panics before realizing she’s not actually terrifying and giving her a chance.
