I really think we as a society don't give enough credit to performers who thrive in an ensemble situation. It's always obvious when an actor is excellent front and center, and we're constantly rewarding that skill set with awards, but god, there's something to be said for the power of a true ensemble piece. People who are so good at reading one another and playing off what they're given, tossing the ball and knowing when to turn it into a grenade. As much fun as it is to watch a solid monologue or a solo show, I always find it so much more thrilling--and so much more authentically lived-in--when there's an ensemble just feeding one another in every single scene. Who do I look at? What is everyone else learning and deciding even from the background? This is what life looks like, and actors who really shine in that environment have really become my favorite to follow.

!!!FOR LOVE LETTER EVENT!!!
Can I have 2 romantic letters? One from shadow milk cookie(can you make this a little yandere?) and the other from prune juice cookie?
[A shadow emerges from your own, gently slipping a letter into your hand. It rumbles sweetly before disappearing. The envelope is a royal blue, and the letter inside a soft sky blue.]
My Muse,
It's been so long since I've seen your face! Saw your smile, heard your adoring laugh! Well, now I can, because your favorite trickster is free!
I've missed you so much, my little blueberry. Keeping you in your gilded cage as I went on and used the Cookies below us for our entertainment was joy! Oh, I can't wait to do it all again!
So just wait, my dear! I'm going to crumble Elder Faeire Cookie and his little friends, and then no one can ever seal me away again~!
Love,
Shadow Milk Cookie
To my love,
I hope you've been well. It's lonely here, at the academy, without you. I know that you're returning today so that we can spend time together, but my potion making can only distract me for so long. Capsaicin Cookie and Kouign-Amann Cookie keep on saying that I just need to relax, but how can I when I miss you so much?
I can't wait to show you all the new little tricks and potions I've made. I remembered your tips from your last letter and they worked like a charm as always, my dear.
I can't wait to see you soon.
Dearly,
Pure Juice Cookie

So, how rare ARE Ford's extra fingers, anyway?
I'm not gonna lie, at first I was skeptical of Ford's claims that the Weirdness Magnetism had an effect on him. Like, yeah, the whole having six fingers thing isn't exactly common, but it's a naturally-occurring event. Stan describes it as a birth defect, and there doesn't seem to be a noticeably great number of people with those in Gravity Falls. It wouldn't be all that farfetched for Ford to think he was just Built Different, for like, at least 7 reasons, but then you start actually thinking about it.
Polydactyly isn't exactly common. Approximately 1 in 1,000 babies are born with some form of polydactyly. While it's true that postaxial polydactyly (extra digit is past the pinkie) is the most common form, which is shown to be the kind Ford has in the x-ray at the beginning of AToTS, there are several other extreme circumstances.
Extra digits in polydactyly aren't usually found on all limbs. It can occur on hands and feet (and Alex has confirmed that Ford does, indeed, have six toes on both feet) but rarely does it occur on both feet, or both hands, much less both hands and both feet. And even when it does occur more than once on one person, the extra digits aren't usually fully-formed. Oftentimes they don't even have bones. When they do have bones, they're usually much smaller, or barely opposable (if they have joints at all). When they're big enough to be maneuverable, they usually interfere with the structure of the hands/feet in negative ways. All this means that an extra finger or toe which doesn't direly require a surgery to remove the extra digit within the first year or two of life is incredibly uncommon.
And let's remember: that's just for one extra digit. Ford has four.
For Ford to have fully functional polydactyly on both hands and both feet, to the point where it's basically impossible to tell which one is finger x without x-rays... the odds of that are astronomically unlikely. Never-before-recorded, one in a kazillion, borderline medically unfathomable sort of rare.
I think I do believe the Weirdness Magnetism could've affected Ford, actually.
