Rupert has this friendly rivalry with another detective he who is eccentric and admittedly kind of a jerk, but a brilliant and talented detective who’s own eccentricities hide how cunning and analytical he is. But his assistant “Tyrone” is sorta wary of him despite Rupert’s tolerance of him- because Alcor knows that rival detective is a Bill Cipher reincarnate.

Dipper takes solace in the fact that at least Ia- er, Veronica, has the literal worse fashion taste ever

Reunion (One-Shot Ficlet)

@captaingrayface: (I made a short little thing, but since it borrows your OCs to establish setting I figured I’d send it to you rather than post it elsewhere.)

————————————————————————————————————————–

Bentley was in a foul mood. “Its just annoying, Why can’t she just use my name? It’s always ‘Shooting star’ this and ‘shooting star’ that…”

Dipper hadn’t been paying attention to the conversation until he heard that. “What did you say?”

“It’s Ben’s new co-worker, Toni. She’s got annoying nicknames for everyone.” Torako filled him in.

“And his is shooting star?”

“Yes, And I have no idea why!”

“I do.” Dipper stated, before vanishing from sight without any explanation. Reappearing elsewhere a moment later in his suit and hat.

She froze in fright, when the black clad figure appeared, hovering before her. It took only a glance for dipper to confirm this was indeed the soul he had suspected. slowly he drifted forward, his gaze never leaving her, until they were mere inches apart and he could clearly hear her muttering ‘no, please no,’ under her breath, too quietly to even call a whisper.

She had expected to be attacked, or possessed, or to have her soul torn out, but being drawn into a hug? That, she never could have seen coming. He was surprisingly gentle. Confusion surprise relief and fear warred in her as she tried to figure out how to feel. Then the creature holding her began to speak.

“I’m sorry.” he whispered, “I’m sorry I didn’t look for you when the next cycle started. I’m Sorry I forgot you. I’m sorry I could never say what you wanted to hear, What you deserved to hear. I loved you, Toby, I was proud of you, and I’m Sorry.”

And with that, the dark figure was gone. No theatrics no fanfare just ‘poof gone’, leaving behind an extremely confused woman wondering just what the hell her past lives had gotten up to to elicit a reaction like that from what she was pretty sure was a demon… She didn’t even notice the mismatched name.

Thank you!! This definitely fits with Alcor trying to find his loved ones and connect with them in Bentlely’s arc 🙂

During the transdimensional arc, how come Alcor’s arrival doesn’t risk a time paradox? And would his presence in this presence have some territorial creatures preserve him as a threat to their turf?

Quite simply because he’s traveled to an alternate dimension which happens to be roughly analogous to the past of his own dimension. He’s not changing his own past – all he’s doing is changing their future. The dimensions remain ever separate in terms of actual timeline, so there is no paradox.

As for bugging things by turning up, it’s possible – Bill certainly wasn’t happy with it, to say the least.

End of the world as they know it – Chapter 1 – Crazy_luna – Gravity Falls [Archive of Our Own]

Ian, Mira, I sometimes forget how to sleep (and that sleep is necessary.) What should I do?

tau-cast:

Okay, well, first what you need to do is invest in a whole pallet of those 72-hour energy drinks, you know the ones, you can only get them at those little mom-and-pop gas stations and pharmacies, they come in a bottle about an inch high with a

tacky holographic silver label and they taste like you’re licking the abstract concept of eternity? Then you’ll need about twelve ounces of fine-ground coffee, a home distillery or a good chemistry set with a Bunsen burner, and a pack of pixie stix. Not the new fake ones, the ones they made illegal after they found out what prolonged pixie dust exposure does to kids. Then you’re going to want to –

I mean, you’re going to want to not share your girlfriend’s secret recipes on the internet. You are definitely not going to want to do that holy shit I have made a terrible mistake. 

m: Yes. Yes you have. 

Anyway! When I look up and the clock is blinking a number in the single digits and I’m pretty sure the last time I looked up it was light out, I turn everything off. Right away. Before I can think ‘wow it’s kind of late, where did the time go?’ I shut the tablet down and plug in my phone. On the other side of the room. If I don’t do this, I’ll still be awake refreshing the same two websites when the sun comes up.

Usually powering everything down makes me realise how tired I am, and it’s easy to get to sleep. But if I can’t for some reason, or if I wake up after a nightmare, I usually go to warm milk with lavender! Hot cocoa’s also good with lavender. I’ve heard warm baths are also great for putting people to sleep – just don’t fall asleep while you’re still in the bath.

And if all else absolutely fails, you can always distract yourself until it’s time to wake up by singing that song your boyfriend hates! Over and over and over again. That’s what he gets for telling everybody and their cat how to make Mira Fuel.

you know, i bet if toby had somehow come before bill, dipper’s view of bill would be biased for the better. it’s just because he met bill first. same with mabel and the others, really. he’s kind of a sucker for first impressions.

Oh, he very much is. He can grow past them, but they do tend to stick, especially if they’re reinforced later on in some way or another (i.e. Bill attempting to resurrect through Ian, using Ian’s blanket humanity as a way to get close enough to strike Dipper where it would hurt). In a way, it’s another example of how human he is: once bitten, twice shy, and the negative tends to make a greater impact on the mind than the positive.

Alcor grinned. This was it, this was the moment he could finally see Toby’s true colors! The kid had been leaving often in the middle of the night, sneaking through the window. Was he attending cult meetings like so many of his preincarnations? Did it matter? Alcor knew he was going to turn out bad, knew it was only a matter of time.

And tonight his suspicions were about to be proved correct.

Before leaving, Toby took a small sack. Alcor hadn’t looked in since he became aware of it, wanting it to be a surprise. As usual, Toby went out the window and onto the branch of the tree on the front lawn. From there it was down the street and… oh.

Just round the corner was the cult Alcor demolished today! So the kid was in a cult – a bad one too, with particularly greedy members. Oh this was going to be sweet, oh the look on Toby’s face when he realizes he been caught, when he-

He was walking right past the house. Dang it. Two houses away, Toby stopped and headed into a vacant lot.

What? Was this some meeting place? Alcor looked for life and found

No. God damn it Toby!

“Are you SERIOUS?” Toby yelped, and the strays that had gathered around the sack of food scattered.

“I can explain! I mean, I, oh, oh I’m so sorry, but you’d get upset and I thought that it would be okay if I did it when you weren’t looking because they’ve got no one and I’ve got you and they’re just these poor little strays I know I should have asked but I didn’t want you to be unhappy I’m so sorry…”

As Toby went on to break records for apologizing, Alcor was mentally slamming his head into a wall because are you doing this to screw with me you can’t keep this act up forever. Alcor sighed and said

“It’s alright kid, jeez. Just stop going out in the middle of the night – you don’t know what’s out there.”
