Gravity Falls AUs Masterpost
A long post with all the past and future links to all of my Gravity Falls AUs content + short description for each of the AU. This post will be updated as time goes. (LAST UPDATE 04.06.2025)
🔧 RepairShop AU - Kryptos and Bill on parole, have to work in space transportation craft repair shop (+Bill gets visited by therapist every other day). Later Pyronica, who, unlike Kryptos, successfully escaped Time police forces, joins them to wait out the search for her in the area. Trio chills, works and tries to not chew each others throats from the past grudges. Includes 4 routes where 1 is the main and 3 others are for fun - my artist sona hanging out with Kryptos.
General: covers
Route 1: _1 _2 _3 unused cover _4 AMA _5
Route 2: _1
Route 3: _1 _1 edited
Route 4: -
🩸 Medically Abused Bill AU - Kryptos breaks Bill out of Theraprism with the help of Pines family, the story of recovering and getting help after being abused in a medical facility.
_1,_2(+bonus)
🔇 Mute Bill AU - Bill accidentally destroys Euclydia at a very young age and one of his parent's exoskeleton shards damages his vocal chords(or whatever he has). Bill ends up growing up in Theraprism's open facility. Cant talk, uses cards and soundboard. Wants to have implant that can return his speech, but no one risking an operation on the almost unknown species. A big nuisance in a facility. Dreams to get out and see "the world".
_1 AMA AMA2 AMA3
🃏 Runaway Roommate AU - a joke AU i made with my friend, where we, as a purple 3-eyed 6-legged axolotl and tiny green Time jerboa, hide Bill from the law in our very normal intergalactic apartment.
_0 _1 _2
👁 Gone Blind AU - at the time period before Gravity Falls events(even the flashback ones) ever started, Bill loses his vision completely. Not getting anything from him anymore, henchmaniacs leave, except for Kryptos, who takes Bill with him dimension hopping, trying to find any cure. Bill still has his powers, but cant use them all the time, to not accidentally kill Kryptos/get them in bigger trouble(usually its Kryptos who has to stop Bill from burning everything that makes any sound near them).
_1
🤗 I Met You First AU / IMYF - Kryptos finds Bill, rather than the other way around, while Bill is still in post-traumatic dissociative state not long after Euclydia's Fall. Kryptos feels sympathetic to a fellow 2D shape and, while cant get any answers from him, takes and protects the unresponsive triangle on an adventure to find their new home, place where they'd belong. Big support, care and brotherhood topics involved.
_1
(Next AUs are not developed as much but arts on them might still appear here)
🔥 Kryptos-Reverse - Kryptos is the one who accidentally destroys his home dimension. Slowly goes mad, jumping from one universe to another, though not as sadistic as Bill. Gets dimension warping powers from devouring whats left of his world (no blue fire). Constantly in the stage of denial (unlike Bill, therapy could've actually helped him, but not being destructive enough didnt bring much attention to him -> he doesnt get into Theraprism to get help). Very lonely.
_1
🩹 Labor AU - Bill forces henchmaniacs (mainly Kryptos, Pyronica and Pacifire) to build portal, uses similar physical and mental torture, like on Ford in tbob, they team up against Bill, build a machine that traps triangle in a crystal pyramid with no way out. Inspired by @/blabberoo animation on tumblr and song Labour by Paris Paloma.
🧭 2D Revolution - Kryptos rises a revolution at his home dimension, kills higher ups and, with the help, safely evolves his dimension into 3D, becomes his people's Messiah

Honestly I can tell you finding out art was made by AI really does immediately, legitimately sour it for me, like people will trot this out as a Gotcha for anti-AI people but it's just making it clear they don't consider art to be the conversation that it is lol. It's similar to the way Harry Potter immediately soured for me because engaging with it while knowing the kind of heart Rowling is writing from changes the way the work feels; there isn't any moralizing or whatever that I have to do, it's easy to drop it because it's rotted in my hands.
"Oh but you LIKED this song before, nothing changed!" The conversational partner did. A very large portion of what is interesting to me about art is thinking of why the creator chose that instrumentation, or what made them want to make the thing in the first place. Finding out I've been talking to a wall completely removes an entire third of the force that art is to me, and I can't argue that anything about art or its consumption is Objectively Correct but I can argue it's fucking boring lmao

This is the first time in 200 years I've seen these streets in the sunlight. You can forget just how much color there is in the world.

i'm a little afraid to go to pride this year. many of us are, a little. sitting around our tapas and video games, the silence that hangs over the discord server. it feels different, we say.
we're privileged. the community that came before us laid the groundwork so i could be raised in a different world, and i will never forget their sacrifices and dedication. they gave us this: a pride that feels like community and celebration and joy. i remember the first few times i went to a queer event - i'd been raised so catholic. feeling safe like that, for the first time... it saved my life. i go to pride to celebrate that feeling - my people, laughing. out in the sun, the way we couldn't have been even 25 years ago. that feeling: no wonder we call it "pride."
who am i to be afraid anyway. there are parts of the world where people are doing much better work than i am. but it's just: i felt at home there, you know? and this year feels different. we are waiting on the dam to break. last year, at boston pride, there was a whole gaggle of sign-holders shouting about jesus. you walk around them and try not to let it get to you.
this year, i'm going to DC's pride with my girlfriend. google sends me concerns about if it's safe to exist in trump's america, if World Pride is a bigass target on all of us. every article uses the words "safety concerns" many, many times. three days ago i witnessed a shooting.
even straight people keep telling me - people are weird lately. sometimes we blame it on Covid and sometimes we blame it on the full moon. but i do remember a time before this, right. it's not just that people are more comfortable being rude. it's this strange, outwards violence. a comfort in being cruel.
it's a big hole to fall down anyway. it's not like they're going to do anything to make pride safe, not really. i don't want a police presence as the solution. and what if this is just fearmongering! what if this is just to get us to stop attending our own events! what if everything is actually fine, and i'm just freaked out by the stated intentions of our president!
and what if i'm just listening to things that are being said. what if i'm weighing the shape and size of this america accurately.
my mother calls me. she's been getting the articles too. i assure her i'll be careful, but i put the phone down and stare at it. i'm going to go to pride. other people made it safe for me, it is my duty and my honor to show up for my community. the only thing we've ever had was each other. it was always an act of bravery. being ourselves is brave.
but i am afraid. i lay out my outfit and i kiss my girlfriend. i cut my nails and clean up my undercut. i hold her hand and hang the sunset flag. the sound of this america feels different. like a volcano trembling. i will love her and i will love being queer and i will sing over the noise of it.
but ... still. in the back of my mind. that feeling, like something terrible has been shifted. like somewhere in the night - they remembered we're different.

There's a panel in Star Wars 17 where Vader tells Luke "Your strength in the Force has grown since last we met" and Luke corrects him "My connection to the Force, Vader," and this is interesting for what it says about the difference between Sith and Jedi philosophies but it's also an interesting character note that Luke feels compelled to be pedantic even in the middle of a goddamn firefight.
