more trip questions

What do they do to relax when they don’t have a lot of time?

Acacia: Doodles in the mini-sketchbook she keeps in her purse. 

Hank: He has a key chain Rubik’s Cube he usually whips out in times like these. 

Willow: A massive sucker for mobile phone games, like Phrases with Pals, and Gem Switch. 

Do they like black licorice? Candy corn? Cilantro? Tootsie Rolls?

Acacia: Loves all four, does not understand the fervent distaste of candy corn.

Hank: Hates the taste of licorice and candy corn, Tootsie Rolls get stuck in his teeth, and cilantro makes him sneeze.

Willow: Ambivalent except for black licorice, which she keeps a stock of at all times. 

Which of them are night owls? Which of them are early birds? 

Acacia: Regularly works until four or five am, would sleep until 2pm if Reina would let her.

Hank: Up at 6am every day, stays up until wee hours doing Crew business quite often. Never seems to have a problem with this. Everyone kind of hates him for this. 

Willow: Can either stay up late or wake up early as needed, but ABSOLUTELY needs exactly eight hours asleep or she will be a total bear to be around. 

some trip questions

Hank: Green tea.

Willow: Hot chocolate, with a half pound of marshmallows and whipped cream on top. 

How did they do in PE?

Acacia: Timeline

Hank: The Decameron

For the ask about the triplets how are their relationship with Henry for each of the triplets?

seiya234:

Acacia

It was unfair of her, when she was little, to think of Dad as the ‘mean one.’ But after her latest hilarious escapade or well deserved dishing out of revenge blew up in her face when she was a kid, it was pretty easy to sweet talk Grunkle Stan or Uncle Dipper to either forget about it or let her off easy. Even Mom, Acacia could charm a good laugh out of or get a pointer.

Dad on the other hand? He didn’t shout, and he certainly never, ever hit, let alone spanked her.

He would just be quietly disappointed, which was infinitely worse.

Also, he never took time off her punishment whenever she was grounded, which was hella lame.

Hank

It wasn’t that he didn’t love his sisters, because well… he did. 

Obviously.

It was just between Acacia’s wild and crazy pranks and singing and climbing on the roof but not the part they were allowed on, and Willow’s asthma and… and other stuff, well.

It didn’t seem like there was much time left over for him.

But then he’d be at breakfast, and suddenly a big floppy hat would get plopped on his head, and he’d look up to see Dad wearing the same hat-

Some of his most treasured memories of childhood were of the two of them, out on the lake fishing.

Just him and Dad.

Willow

Mom, Dad, Uncle Dipper.

Acacia, Hank, Willow.

That’s how they all usually got paired. And to be fair, it made sense. But family didn’t work in such strict binaries, not really.

The bier blazed in front of them, and Willow remembered crosswords done side by side in the mornings, cups of coffee next to them as in the background children screamed at each other. 

Learning how to fix cars, starting with Dad’s truck and moving on to Stan’s old clunker, watching documentaries at 2am since her and Dad were the only ones who were interested in them, making pies and breakfasts together for everyone.

The blessed quiet, that sometimes only Dad understood the need for, that he now was resting in.

i just opened a document i wrote at 3am last night. at the time i thought it was an unparalleled work of genius. turns out, it’s just this:

what do you mean it isnt

someone draw this with the TAU triplets but Willow’s flying the plane.

Willow: I can totally fly a plane I’m psychic
Hank: that’s not how that works
Acacia: I think this is perfectly logical, do a barrel roll
Passengers: *screaming*

Okay so you know how there are whole fanbases for shipping Alcor and his non-romantic loved ones? I’ve pretty much just seen stuff with Mizar and the Woodsman, but imagine that there’s a quiet but avid corner of the fandom who focuses on the rarepair of Hank as Don Pines and Alcor the Dreambender, getting together and fighting injustice against magical creatures, just a brave, ordinary man and his demonic lover. Lucy never shuts up about it, and Mabel reads fanfics out loud at get togethers.

Ah yes, but Hank has learned the valuable lesson that his uncle and to a lesser extent his dad never has learned which is DON’T LET MABEL SEE YOU SWEAT.

What was the worst (non demonic) cooking catastrophe to hit the Pines’ kitchen?

seiya234:

Acacia: Less a cooking catastrophe, and more “the day babbyWi Acacia found out vanilla does not taste like it smells by chugging the entire tiny bottle in one go.”

Hank: The first time he tried to make a pitcher of Kool-Aid; he followed the directions on the pack…. but poured two cups of sugar into an individual cup as opposed to a gallon pitcher. #bless

Willow: Is currently on her eighth waffle maker, refuses to switch to pancakes.

theitalianscribe: When was the first time Henry called Stan Grunkle? 

Henry doesn’t really call Stan “Grunkle.” Henry in many ways is very formal and reserved, and that term doesn’t come to his mouth easily, except telling the kids something WRT Stan.

But here’s the thing. 

At some point four or five months into courting Mabel, “Mr. Pines” slowly morphs into just “Stan.” Soon it’s “Stan, do you want a beer from the fridge?” or “Stan, let me get those books for you,” instead of the awkward and vaguely scared silences that Stan had gotten used to. 

Did Hank ever date any supernatural beings?  

One of his boyfriends in high school was Tommy Tarantella, who as a were-swan and the football team’s quarterback held the school record for most turnovers allowed in a season and most bones broken on the field. (People with bird bones should probably not play contact sports.)

When did Reina start having a crush on Acacia? 

A few months after Acacia does! She doesn’t admit it for a long time for much of the same reasons. 

Does Willow live in the Shack or next to it (when she took up the Library)? 

In the Shack! She has all of her foster kids to take care of after all, and it just makes sense. 

What is everyone’s favorite ice cream flavor?

Henry: Pistachio

Acacia: Rocky Road

Hank: Coffee

Willow: Chocolate chip cookie dough

Dipper: tie between

Fic open season go!

i did a tiny fic thing


“Lucy Ann guess
what,” Dipper exclaimed, bursting into reality with enough force to
trip over his own feet. He was grinning from ear to ear, literally.
Lucy Ann looked up from the book she was thumbing through, and
sighed. She raised an eyebrow and made a gesture for Dipper to
continue. “No guess.”

“Ugh,” Lucy Ann
grumbled, putting the book down. “I don’t know, Mr. Omniscient,
what?”

“Hank’s soul
reincarnated,” Dipper replied, his skin appeared to be vibrating.
Lucy Ann’s mood lifted a little. It was nice to hear about a new
Hank. If only because it meant she could go harass them.

“Okay,” Lucy Ann
said. “That’s nice, but why are you so
excited. I mean I’m always happy to hear about new versions of old
friends, but you’re starting to steam.”

“Hank,
wait sorry, not Hank, Valentina was
just born to one Alfonso Adimari.” Dipper explained. Lucy Ann’s
eyes went wide and she grinned.

“You’re
kidding me,” She said. “Adimari like..?”

“Oh
yes,” Dipper beamed. “The
Adimari family. Little Valentina is a Mafia Princess.”

seiya234:

Willow: Watch repair and clock making. It helps her turn her brain off for a few hours, especially since her empathy continues to grow stronger after she has her daughter.

Hank: Playing pinball at the local hipster arcade. It gets to a point that for his 45th birthday the Crew surprises him with an old generic pinball machine that a friend of a friend of Kiyo’s found.

Acacia: Drag race nights at the local race track. IE, “enter your own car” race nights. Her little sedan isn’t souped up or anything, but she loves being able to drive as batshit as she wants. Occasionally she wins a race through sheer verve, nerve, lack of fear, and slight cheating.
