#Symbol cipher

If you haven't seen it already, we have a brand new symbol cipher!
Yes, it's dark, but it's there. Just along the right side of the sign...
I believe we don't have everything we need to solve it yet, seeing as there's no spaces, no punctuation, it's too short for frequency, etc. But I do believe we will be seeing more of these symbols in future posts and definitely in the new book! How exciting!
For the sake of avoiding eyestrain and for our future reference, I went ahead and traced these symbols in vector lines. I have both the symbols in the photo and the unique symbols laid out on their own for easy solving whenever it comes down to it!
I've exported them as PNGs for you here:

Frankenstan AU where Ford successfully brings back Stan. His brother is alive again and he couldn't be happier. Stan is actually here! Finally! He's ready to work things out, as soon as they deal with Bill.
Speaking of Bill... He hasn't been around in a few days since the revival. Ford knows that Bill hasn't possessed him recently; even though he can't remember what he does when Bill is in control, he can sense when his body has been used against his will. And that feeling hasn't been there in almost a week.
Ford doesn't understand. But most importantly, he doesn't understand Stan. He's alive and mostly healthy. His body has stitches all over, but his organs are functional. Save for some small details, he's himself again. So why is he acting so unlike him? He hides, he murmurs instead of speaking up, he's sneaky and careful and he stares at the walls for too long sometimes. He's jumpy and silent, and avoids looking at him almost constantly.
There's only one explanation. That is not his brother.
"I'll make it right this time. I promise, Stan," he says, and he pulls the trigger.
(Or: Ford's paranoia + Bill's subtle but constant influence on him makes Ford believe that Stan's demeanor has changed so much not because of what he's gone through in the past decade, but because Bill is somehow inside of him. He's determined to get his "real" brother back, and he won't stop until Bill is unable to enter Stan's body. No matter how many tries it takes.)
#eternal frankenstan loop let's gooooo#that awkward moment when the memory of your brother doesn't fit the version of him you see in front of you#no worries guys! i can fix this! *kills his brother yet again* *paints some useless symbols on him to keep bill away*#is this moment stan's first death? is it the 3rd? the 10th? the 50th? who knows#my silly little headcanons#gravity falls#frankenstan au#stan twins#stanley pines#stanford pines#stan pines#ford pines#bill cipher#stangst#i'm 80% sure this has been written before but i've never seen it around so... here you go#tw death#cw death#i'm so sleepy guys enjoy this idea i wrote down before i go back to my paper#Frankenstan Loop AU

the cracks always symbolizing them being a broken piece of what they used to be...
Stan's is fixed with two pieces of tape holding him together though- Dipper and Mabel

there’s a couple posts where you draw bill with a bright blue iris - was there an official art drop? is it based on pyramid steve? his fire? something else?
mostly his fire, but there's canon backing for a blue-eyed Bill



^ obviously, we didn't have TBOB yet when I first alluded to a blue-eyed Bill, but it's still good supporting evidence.
But we also have canon-backing for a red-eyed Bill


and yellow eyed, and black eyed


So if you choose to give him an iris you can interpret it any way you want depending on what kind of color symbolism you want to emphasize.
I personally tend to headcanon him as not naturally having a (visible, colored) iris as a triangle. So when I draw him with one, it's the effect of magic rather than a part of his anatomy—and Bill's magic is bright blue.

In which Ford struggles so badly to relate to other people that he wonders if he’s really human at all. The more isolated he becomes, the harder it is to reconcile with his own humanity.
#my art#gravity falls#Stanford pines#ford pines#bill cipher#comic#eye strain#TIME TO DUMP EVERY ONE OF THE 27483949 THOUGHTS IVE HAD INTO THE TAGS BABY#OK!! SO!!!!#I feel like Ford would wonder why he and Stan (being identical twins) aren’t. yk. identical. shouldn’t Stan have polydactyly too?#as a kid he would dream about secretly being nonhuman and being whisked away to a fantastical world full of people like him#finally free of new jersey‚ finally somewhere he belongs#a lot of this disconnect from humanity came from utterly failing at social interactions while others (including stan) navigated them easily#the feeling waned after Stan was kicked out and he didn't have that direct comparison but it never left#then out in the wilderness of gravity falls‚ his isolation and immersion in Weirdness dragged it back up to the forefront#he deserves to have a breakdown over questioning his own nature. as a treat <3#color symbolism time bc I have a problem and use it at every available moment!!! blue and yellow get more vivid#the further from humanity the subject is#bill is entirely made w pure rgb blue and yellow (+ approximately 2674835 textures/layers/blending modes. I reached 150+ layers. help)#I like the idea that he would appear to ford like pure math considering hes a geometrical motherfucker and how the rest of the mindscape wa#I tried to mostly use trigonometry and related stuff for the Math Greebling. as well as fractals i love you forever fractals#MORE SYMBOLISM:#the grid-ish diamond pattern in all of the mindscape bgs (and elsewhere) is a penrose diagram of spacetime#which shows other universes on the other sides of black holes#SOMEONE ASK ME ABOUT MY EUCLYDIA HEADCANON LATER. IVE DUMPED ENOUGH DUMB HCS IN THESE TAGS ALREADY#BUT I THINK ITS VERY FUN#anyways. fuckt up guys n their egos influencing how they view humanity. bill tells ford hes as human as they come bc he was so easily foole#ford cant reconcile with his humanity bc of a failure to perform in one area#and then the immense guilt and shame over what hes done <3#I have So many ford characterization thoughts. no man nor god can stop me

The Great Curve
Happy Pi Day! And happy late birthday to @harvscarf/@thedandy-detective Funny how my falling back into love with Gravity Falls almost coincided with your birthday! But hey! It all worked out since I was to fit a thematically appropriate holiday into the piece instead!
As a bonus here's an alt and the clean sketch that somehow became the finished piece in less than a day!
Happy late birthday you Dandy. And happy late birthday to one of the best character reveals of all time.
#gravity falls#ford pines#bill cipher#pi day 2025#my art#the computer does a draw#fanart#gravity falls fanart#standford pines#billford#If you squint#Something about chasing toward the infinite and ending up consumed by your pursuit#Dipper Pines#Mable Pines#They're referenced via their Zodiac Symbols in the corners#And how Fords “Muse” ended up isolating him from his future family. Aka the only people who could stop Bill.#Man I put a lot of symbolism in what was meant to be a silly birthday doodle.#Also crazy how it's been over 10 years since Not Who He Seems and 10 years since 3.14.15 funny coincidence#Talking Heads#Remain in Light#The Great Curve#That refrains Sometimes the world has a load of questions Seems like the world knows nothing at all#And World of Light She's going to open our eyes up#Are such Ford talking about Bill type lyrics to me
