between the pines | goodbye, echo canyon 1.1

the drive from echo canyon to silent pines is about 20 hours give or take. with her brother, miguel at the wheel, ines looked out the window as her home and the orange hues of the canyon faded into the distance. her eyes began to close as she slowly drifted into a day dream as flashes of her childhood and life on the ranch danced in her head...

This took way longer than expected but I'm getting even more attached to this family. If you can't tell, I've posted them more than 5x time and haven't given up and moved on to a new idea.

I really loved recreating each family for different year. Ended up needing to age up David to a child for '98 since the math didn't work for him to be a toddler...but excited to get into more gameplay posts out soon!

Gravity Falls Rewatch: Post-Canon: Between the Pines

I thought Time Baby was dead? Did they come back?

Awww I missed the original theme song instead of the fucked up Bill one

Love how Alex is conveying this information: pretending to be trapped by Time Baby awesome

THE PRISM IN CARPET DIEM WAS MEANT TO INDICATE THAT THE ROOM BELONGED TO THE AUTHOR?!?!?!?

Alex won’t reveal Dipper’s first name lmao

Yo has anyone else figured out Dipper and Mabel’s name similarity?

“When Mabel isn’t on-screen she’s knitting the next week’s sweater” okay that makes a lot of sense

“Pay attention to how Stan talks about family” okay if I rewatch the series again I’ll try to remember that

Soos’ sayings are based off a GF crew member who says weird slang

Soos is based off a guy who Alex went to college with!

“Everyone poured the coolest person they knew into a pot and Wendy was born” true that fr

Deputy Durland is named after a real guy!

“Toby is days away from giving up on everything” lmao

“Preston runs a mudflap factory and his wife was Ms. Mudflap ‘85” why is that so unexpected but also so not surprising

“Gideon originally may have had a conjoined twin hidden by his hair” oh my god I don’t know if that would be hilarious or horrifying

Okay so Bill was inspired by the triangle eye on the $1 bill and was even named “Bill” after the bill, I didn’t figure out the name part until now but the inspiration makes sense

“Bill was originally green” okay that sounds cool and weird

There was a secret government surveillance device in the floorboards in Sock Opera?!?!

“Mabel’s sunset sweater in Dreamscaperers symbolizes the shift from a brighter story to a darker story” ALEX HIRSCH HOLY SHIT YOU GENIUS

“Dreamscaperers originally had Bill going into everyone’s dreams and Mabeland was inspired by those ideas” I kinda want to see that plot and what would happen with that

Wow did Alex do that Duchess Approves intro from memory?!? And off the cuff?!?!

I’m actually so so so glad that Alex put those codes in GF because that’s kinda what got me into the show when I was 10

“Fans are smarter than I am so we upped the ante for season 2” I love how they adapted to make it more of a challenge for fans

Holy shit there are so many codes and secret messages in this show that I didn’t notice I kinda love that

“Our most elaborate code was cracked 10 minutes after the episode came out” yeah that’s the GF fandom for you

THE END-OF-EPISODE FLASHES IN SEASON 2 WERE LEADING UP TO THE FORD REVEAL?!?!?!?

Holy fucking shit I didn’t notice that Stan has a bandage on his hand for several episodes after it gets banged by a pipe in “Society of the Blind Eye” AND it was a way to say “we haven’t forgotten about the mysterious portal”

“Something will change and stay changed for the rest of the show” yup that’s the godlike continuity of this show

“Each audience member gets to BE Dipper and have a mystery to solve” YES that’s the charm!!

“Mabel wears a key sweater in ‘Not What He Seems’ to say that she’s the key to opening the portal” yooooooo okay Mabel’s sweaters have more meaning than I thought apparently

Holy shit there’s just so many secrets explained that just make so much sense

Ariel Hirsch voiced a girl in the Sev’ral Timez episode?!?!?!?!?????

“This show is us making fun of each other” lol I love that

Whoa Matt Chapman is an unsung side star of this show apparently

“Jeff Rowe is the most attractive of our writers” didn’t expect that but okay go off I guess

“all the writers have a secret personality trait that sneaks into the show” yo that’s beautiful dawg I love that

Stan’s singing what he’s doing is inspired by something Alex does apparently lmao

“Chanting happens a lot in the writers room” lol that’s not surprising

I never realized how much chanting is in this show lmao

“The crew likes to make fun of me” lol I love how apparently the entire GF crew had fun with this show and with each other

“GF isn’t about codes and Easter eggs but characters” yeah I didn’t fully realize that when I was a kid and that’s why I’m glad I rewatched the show

I LOVE that montage at the end showing all the coolest Gravity Falls moments

This special was fucking awesome!!! I learned so much!!! I would highly recommend watching it if you haven’t seen it already

what does ford know anyway. all he's got is an honorary PhD from that two-bit anti-torture college

something something portal-era ford manifesting the mental image of his ex boyfriend to piss off the demon harassing him. I don't remember if it was myself or rin who came up with the shoulder fiddleford joke originally

Philosophobia drop video for "Between the Pines"

Band: PhilosophobiaSong: “Between the Pines”Album: PhilosophobiaRelease Date: June 24th, 2022Label: Sensory Records Guitarist Andreas Ballnus, who also edited the video, comments: “‘Between The Pines’ lyrically deals with the situation between a stepfather and his stepson. On the surface they get along very well with each other. But deep inside the boy is very insecure because of the…

Out of every ship i have been invested in, which isn't a whole lot but still, I think that narumitsu is the most justified in being the most painfully slow burn to ever have burned. Like, it's obvious to literally everyone around them that there is something between them but it still takes twenty years to do anything about it. Not because they're stupid but they're both just specific types of fucked up that make getting into a relationship kind of impossible.

They're both seemingly very reluctant to get into any sort of romantic relationships in the first place, one due to general disinterest and a truly incredible amount of emotional constipation, and the other due to his last (and only known) relationship being so fucked up that he kind of gave up on the concept entirely. Them being excruciatingly in denial about being in love for decades is just so in character because they're just Like That.

Their history is also complicated enough to warrant waiting around for each other forever, there's so much baggage and trauma and hurt between them that it's just crazy. They've saved each other and they've hurt each other and they push each other away, they owe each other their lives and their jobs and their hopes. They would do anything for each other but are still pretty justified in being afraid to take the last step into making their relationship not just platonic.

idk it feels like a lot of other ships fall into the infuriatingly slow romance because the characters are too stupid to take a hint and it's just kind of painful after a while but these are the most hilariously repressed characters I have ever seen and while they might be stupid about their own feelings, it's usually stemming from trauma which is far more interesting for me personally lol.

between the pines | goodbye, echo canyon 1.3

the motel was eerily empty and quiet. ignoring the weird pit building in her stomach, ines quickly led the way to their room on the 2nd floor. her worries soon melted away as she jumped onto the bed calling 'dibs'! the siblings burst into laughter. between pillow fights, card games, and horror movie reruns, they reminisced about their childhood in echo canyon saying one final goodbye together..

Tried to us relight more in the post and feel like I'm getting better! But promise we'll get the silent pines soon. trying to help build up background of characters before delving into the mystery of it all...

narilamb is so funny cuz its basically a god going “here take my powers and make me strong again!” Only for lamb to realize hes a jerk and decides to beat the shit out of him then go “ill give u this cool present if u be friends with everybodyy ^_^”.
