[rossary-of-the-rose]

currently thinking about how fiddleford's family had to watch helplessly as he moved to a different town and slowly descended into madness while being unable to stop it because they didn't know how & how stan threw away the chances of having a family or forming a meaningful connection to anyone until the twins just to save a brother who didn't want to be saved & how Ford basically killed two people without ever realising or thinking about it until he matured emotionally...

i am unwell.

Book of Bill spoilers under cut

I know this isn't nearly what everyone's talking about when it comes to this book but the added context and filling in the blanks about Stanford's story absolutely breaks my heart.

For his whole childhood and young years he was ostracized for his birth defect and interest in the abnormal, only getting recognition for his gifted genius and when he finally had the chance to put his smarts to good use surrounded by people who would get him the only person who was ever there for him ruined his chances (albeit accidentally) and sent a wrecking ball to his entire future.

Although he excelled with the cards he was dealt and found a study he was passionate about he was all alone, despite being the smartest person in Gravity Falls (and possibly all of Oregon) he was still very socially stunted and struggled even talking to a waitress at a diner, alone with his studies until he met Bill who while becoming his muse and aiding him tremendously with his research also seemed to truly connect to him in a way no human ever could and they appeared to grow a strong bond maybe even blossoming into a little situationship. Through this he reconnected with his old colleague roommate who was not only willing to help with a groundbreaking technological breakthrough for pretty much nothing but is also the first to show Stanford true human kindness (even at his own decrement) that he most likely hasn't felt since the fallout with Stanley which he reciprocate.

He was thriving in his element, he didn't have many friends but when push came to shove he only needed the two. The future was looking bright and he was happy.

Then in one fell swoop it all came crashing down.

The secrets of his research and progress came out in the end and in the span of what I assume is a week he not only lost his one human friend but his muse, his friend, his sidepiece, the only being ever who truly recognized and understood him became his worst monster and tormentor and what's worse is that the only person that could possibly help him has been drawn away. He's left completely and more alone than he ever was.

Growing maddened, desperate and with no one else to turn to he reaches out the con man who ruined his future 30 years ago despite fears disaster and mockery hoping he can help.

And we all know how that ended...

When I first watched Gravity Falls when I was younger I never gave too much thought about Ford but reading through his pages in The Book Of Bill and piecing everything together made me cry.

But the only thing that made me cry harder was seeing the picture of him in the present day, surrounded by the people who love and care about him.

"I found my happiness and it looks like this." :')

I just finished a complete re-read for the third (fourth?) time and the recent updates are barreling toward some climactic events, so I therefore feel compelled to make a proper rec post for something LONG overdue:

The Glass Scientists, a webcomic about Dr. Jekyll, Mr. Hyde, rogue science, Victorian repression, and a WHOLE lot more.

Our protagonist is the esteemed Dr. Henry Jekyll, co-founder of the Society for Arcane Sciences, an organization that aims to bring mad science into the mainstream by proving that not all who practice it are dangerous lunatics. This is easier said than done, especially with the violent death of a certain Dr. Frankenstein still weighing on the minds of the public years after the fact. Not to mention...

... Henry's own inner demons.

Edward Hyde serves as a sort of release valve for Henry's stresses whenever the pressure of running the Society proves to be too much. Hyde is everything he can't be: spontaneous, emotional, uninhibited. Free to take what he wants without guilt or public consequences.

And oh, Henry wants.

His transformation into Hyde is a physical manifestation of the repression of his queer inclinations. This is not subtext. It's not even an accident on Henry's part. It's a central facet to who he is as a person (and, by extension, who Hyde is, as well).

...But listen. We don't have time to unpack all THAT! Not when there are so many other delightful characters to meet! Such as Henry's best friend / business partner / old flame Robert:

Or Jasper, the newest member of the Society, a plucky young cryptozoologist who happens to also be a werewolf, and who gets swept up in a VERY cute relationship with the slightly unhinged cook (and Henry's other best friend), Rachel:

Or Hyde himself, who despite all his debauchery may not actually be the pinnacle of evil that he believes himself to be:

Because if you couldn't tell from the sampling of panels in this post, this comic is not only a gripping emotional drama but also an OUTRAGEOUS comedy, when the mood calls for it. It truly strikes a perfect balance of the two, in my humble opinion.

On top of all that, the art is gorgeous, the atmosphere is impeccable (swinging from fantastical whimsy to genuine horror and back with deft skill), and the characters are deep and dynamic and full of gray areas.

I can't recommend it enough. It's hands-down my favorite actively-updating webcomic (new page every Monday!), and I'm for-real having to restrain myself from going back and starting ANOTHER re-read right now, it's that good. I've spoiled a tiny bit in this post, but believe me when I say the cast and events get so much weirder and more wonderful than even this. Please check it out.

and I’ll never see you again, if I can help it

thought about hyde and lanyon a little too hard and this appeared.

anyways henry having some (very repressed) resentment towards robert after their breakup which then got pushed on hyde after they split... mixed in with henrys (also repressed) lingering feelings for lanyon? oughhh. no wonder why he avoided him

also video version and still images! ignore the wonky and messy bits shwbsgdg
