i wanted to try drawing older Mabel and Dipper !

[hkthatgffan]

So, I was thinking. In Dipper and Mabel and the Curse of the Time Pirates' Treasure! (super underrated book btw), there's an option where as a way to deal with a dragon the twins and Blendin encounter, Mabel suggests they talk to him. The option then sees Mabel talking to the dragon and letting him vent out all his frustrations and such to her, asking how he feels and giving him advice on how to work through it and grow...almost like a therapist.

The more I look back on this as the years have passed, the more I've found this rather wholesome of a thing to have in the book. Not just cause it shows Mabel trying to help out someone per her kind nature, rather than the other option in the book for the dragon (being medieval battle, lol), but also due to the fact it can also be seen as a small reference to the fact that Mabel's inspiration, Ariel Hirsch (Alex Hirsch's twin sister), is in real life, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.

And in the story, some of what we hear the dragon talking to Mabel about are things like his family and life issues. It gives one an interesting thing to look into regarding Mabel and how maybe, becoming a therapist is a path she may go down, just like her IRL inspiration (kinda like how Dipper in the show mentioned he wants to make his own TV show, like Alex did). And while yeah, Time Pirates is not a canon book, it is still wholesome to consider. And now, we have kinda seen hints of that in stuff that is, like recently in The Book of Bill when Mabel mentions how she has Waddles sorta play her own therapist with who she talks out her problems with.

In the midst of all else we learn in the book, it's a bit of a small and forgotten detail but one when looked at this way, is rather telling IMO. Add on the hints at their parents marriage issues and similarities that shows with Alex and Ariel Hirsch's life we have heard from them about, and I honestly feel pretty strongly about the fact Mabel may grow up to be therapist, perhaps like Ariel, in the family and marriage field.

It's kinda interesting. For years, so many of us when headcanoning Mabel's future ambitions, look at stuff like her being an artist or maybe something similar, given it sorta seems about what you'd think she'd pursue (and I mean, the amount of headcanons and Gravity Falls AUs out there where Mabel is an artist when she's grown up, really show how prevalent the belief is). And while yeah, like all headcanons, it's just that and as valid to be true or not as any of those other ones are, I think all things considered, it's a rather wholesome and pretty Mabel outcome for her to pursue.

She's always got the best intentions at heart no matter what and wants people to be happy and comfortable with who they are. And as she gets older, she more than likely would be the type of person who'd wanna pursue that as a life ambition and career and see being a therapist as one way to achieve that. Maybe I'm thinking too much into it, but I can't lie, therapist Mabel sounds pretty interesting. It's not the usual Mabel headcanon that fans come up with...but maybe it's the start of something.

Divergent from my typical content here is a comic I drew based on a random book I found in a used book store and quickly became enraptured by

After getting one year older last month and going through a bit of an existential crisis I've decided to move my BACC gameplay over here to this blog. I'm trying to declutter my digital space and deleting a side-blog is part of that.

I'll still be playing my LEPacy but I'll now have 2 saves shared on this blog for a while and I'll swap at the end of rounds/generations. Sorry to those who are seeing these twice!

Now let's get into the BACC!

Moonwood Mill is my favourite world so I couldn't pass up the chance to start a BACC using @m0ckest's gorgeous Grimtooth Cabins. Technically breaking the rules already to start with residential rental but with only 5 lots to play with it made sense, sooo let's ignore that.

Let's meet the residents! ⬇️

Wolfgang Wilder by @m0ckest 🐺

Our landlord and resident werewolf. Wolfgang will be working on handiness and logic for the group, unlocking electricity and contraception. He makes sure everything is running smoothly in the cabins, and always brings fruitcake.

Alex Shay by @samtastic-sims 🧜‍♀️

Alex is our fitness fanatic, working on unlocking the athletic career and the gym. That will help towards unlocking the rec centre so the group can enjoy more @m0ckest loveliness at the Moonwood Co-op. Alex is a mermaid and enjoys spending the Summer afternoons down at the lake.

Arielle Ivy by @cowplant-snacks 🎨

Arielle is our artist, and the first Sim I have chosen to play in year 1. She's generous but very high maintenance which often causes conflicting moodlets. She does not love living off the grid. Arielle is focusing on unlocking the arts centre, which is the other half of the rec centre unlock. She will be levelling painting, knitting and mixology.

Janessa Havens by @enchantsims 🍳

Our nosy, lovebug that loves to cook. She developed a crush on Wolfgang the minute I went into Live Mode so I'm already obsessed with that. Janessa will be working on her homestyle cooking, gourmet cooking and baking skill to unlock a restaurant for the town.

tyler's voice is late nights curled up in bed, trying not to cry

oli's voice is screaming defiance when all you want to do is sob

alex's voice is the beauty and pain of growing up

remington's voice is the raw pain and rich beauty of realizing you're not alone in your pain

ariel's voice is the uncertainty choosing to heal, even though staying sick is so much easier

vessel’s voice is the bittersweet ache of begging for love, but slowly realizing you need to love yourself first

gerard's voice is the anthem of the broken, the beaten, and the damned

[vanillacoke25]

i constantly think abt how we don't have a SINGLE picture of miles and louise together, even tho she's dating his bestfriend for over 6 years now... i think this says a lot about their relationship and louise herself...
