I wanted to do a fic, but first I need to know what all the cannon R!Henrys are and what plants grow off of their antlers. Who I know of so far is Paloma, Maritza, Lata, Rick, Charlotte, Crystal and Tri. But I don’t remember what any of their fruit/plants are.

Mod S here!

Lata: Thimbleberries, though they are slow to grow and quick to spoil once off the vine.

Maritza: Strawberries!

Paloma: pears!

Rick: per the word of @ii-thiscat-ii, “His etheral antlers look somewhat like what you’d find on a white-tailed deer, and whan they don’t have neon pink and blue orchids, they get small, white orange flowers. These grow into tiny oranges, which are not orange at all, but blood red.”

Charlotte: not specified. 

Crystal: not specified 

Tri: not specified 

Shirl: cow vetch vines

Oriole: Grapes

Jesse: They don’t call him “fruit salad” for nothing

Hoa: eventual blueberries. 

In regards to Toby + Maddie

Mod Z here! I know a few of you might be a little let down concerning a post I made a short time ago essentially saying Toby was never supposed to be in the same lifetime as Maddie.

I want to reassure you: Everyone can still draw/fic/whatever Toby and Maddie together!

The intent of the previous post was to merely explain why there’s a gaping plot hole; not to discourage fanworks with them together.

This plothole came about because I created Toby to not overlap with a Mizar. But fans attached one to him anyway, and I’m very okay with that! Then Maritza, a Henry reincarnation, was introduced to be Maddie’s love interest, and that’s when the plot hole really began.

With the events of Reincarnation Blues, Henry wasn’t supposed to reincarnate for many, many lifetimes due to his soul being destroyed. Toby came along very soon after the events of Reincarnation Blues. Thus, a Henry reincarnation shouldn’t be possible alongside Maddie; that is the plot hole.

So to summarize:

  • Toby without Maddie is not “canon”, it’s only what I intended to be canon at first. That can be changed now!
  • Maritza introduces a gaping plot hole, but since so many people adore her, I hesitate to say she isn’t “canon”.
  • In the end, these are all small enough plot holes, and canon is squishy enough for me to say it’s okay to keep up fanworks even with Maritza.
  • I never intended to devalue or invalidate everyone’s hard work with building on Toby – I still think they’re as valid as anything else, even if it’s a bit shaky with the plot hole. I adore them! 🙂

I apologize for anyone became upset due to my mistake. I really should have taken more time wording such a tender subject. Please, always let me, or any of the other mods, know if this happens again!

Vignettes of Dipper and his Sousaphone, inspired by these three prompts/headcanons:

Now that Dipper was a demon, and he had a reputation to maintain, he felt he needed to look and act the part. Dignified, suave, cultured, with a hint of menace and danger.

There was one slight problem with keeping up that facade, however, and it boiled down to this – once a dork, always a dork.

Oh, he could manage it when he was ‘working’, but it shattered soon after getting home, around people he could trust.

And while Dipper loved playing the violin, which could be highly dignified, a respected and cultured instrument, and he enjoyed playing it for his family, well…he also loved his old sousaphone and no amount of faked dignity could hide it.

Luckily, the triplets liked it when their silly uncle got out the ‘big blorty-horn’, as they called it. (They were four. Mabel thought it was adorable, and so did the rest of the family, they just weren’t as vocal about it as she was.)

They loved his violin, too, but most of the time, it was for soothing, for lullabies and nighttime. The sousaphone, on the other hand, was loud, and obnoxious, and perfect for entertaining toddlers.

Dipper was in the middle of giving his stars their own personal sousaphone concert (with Stan providing backup in the form of sarcastic commentary from inside the house each time there was a pause) when he felt the pull of an unavoidable summons.

Five Henrys That Dipper Met

seiya234:

Happy very belated birthday @zilleniose-chu! You are absolutely wonderful and are like, the literal best? ❤ ❤ ❤

———

2. Oriole Pines

The little girl laughed as she chased the fireflies across
the yard in front of the Shack-

(no, not the Shack, the Shack had wandered on and was
replaced by a pale imitation- but that wasn’t fair)

-red hair and the grape vines from her tiny antlers fluttering
behind her.

As time stretched, years becoming decades becoming
centuries, Dipper had found that occasionally his family once again became
family. At first it weirded him out, to be honest, to see the kids reincarnated
as their own descendants. That… that had to be kind of out there right? Like he
wasn’t the only one seeing that? But that had been a crisis that had come and
gone a few centuries ago so now he just enjoyed how… poetic. Good. How good it
felt to see his family come home again, in one way at least.

He looked at Oriole’s parent, and raised an eyebrow at them.

“Oriole?”

Tanner Pines blushed. “I like birds okay?”

Dipper nodded. “As evidenced by Oriole’s siblings Wren,
Sparrow, Gosling, and Pelican.”

Two things seemed to be forever constant: the fruit and
antlers that sprung from Henry’s soul, and the Pines family propensity for
terrible theme naming.

3. Jesse Cooper

It was probably really, really
unkind to think of a small child as “Fruit Salad” even if it was in the privacy
of one’s own head.

But looking at the little boy who was currently sitting
content under a tree and playing in the dirt, it was hard for the nickname not to stick.

He had seen Henry’s soul with every possible type of antler
and fruit over the years. He had seen square watermelons and pineapples. Irish
elk
antlers and pudu
antlers and every size in between. Vines that gave off tiny bitter fruit,
flowers that bloomed then immediately died, the occasional vegetable when
Dipper was getting complacent, caterpillars that liked to hang out on antlers:
Dipper had seen everything.

This kid however….

One tine had clusters of cherries blooming from it. Another
had a large, fat, solitary grapefruit dangling off its tip. There were apples
and oranges, grapes and kiwis, tomatoes and breadfruit- Dipper tried and failed
to account for all the many many kinds of fruit that Jesse had blooming from
his antlers.

Jesse absentmindedly reached up with a dirty hand, snatched
a lemon, and bit down into it, rind and all.

Dipper sighed. Fruit salad or not, he had a feeling he’d
need to look after this one carefully.

4. Shirl Henshaw

Not everyone would be good. Not everyone was like who they
used to be. Dipper wasn’t an idiot, he got that. Hell, as a fucking demon it
shouldn’t even bother him.

But bother him it did.

Case in point….

He peered in as Shirl strutted and preened, pounced and
pontificated, and otherwise utterly killed it in the courtroom.  Only he could see the
cow vetch vines
that curled tightly around her caribou antlers and trailed
down her neck and back like a cape.

Shirl Henshaw was responsible for the freedom of murderers
and rapists, for innocents caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. She won
divorce cases for battered spouses the same day she helped defeat restraining
orders against abusers. She took on any client, and she never, ever lost-

(As well she shouldn’t; he taught her most of the tricks she
used in the courtroom)

He hadn’t met anyone as truly and utterly amoral as her in a
very long time, and it hurt to see the soul inside twisted in such a way.

Hurt to see Henry’s strengths still shine through: the interest in other people, the ability to
get them to open up to hi-her.

A will that was stronger than steel, stronger than anything
he had seen, even now after all these years.

And yet.

And yet he couldn’t leave her be. Couldn’t deny the part of
him that thrilled at her casual, clinically cold nastiness, the steel trap of
her mind.

And so he stayed, and watched Shirl finish off her prey on
the witness stand.

5. Maritza Martinez

Jerry, who knew more than his average nibling, sat down next
to Dipper at the table in the pizza place they were eating at.

“You planned this.”

“No I didn’t.”

Jerry rolled his eyes. “Grauntie Mary warned me about you,
you know.”

Dipper took a bite of his slice, which was smothered in
anchovies, pineapple, and cotton candy he had snuck in. “She did, did she?”

Jerry’s eyes narrowed.

“She told me you were a shameless busybody and a terrible
matchmaker.”

At the last Dipper grew offended.

“Terrible? Terrible?
I’ll have you know there was only ever one better matchmaker than I and she’s….
um, well she’s gone but not really but that’s not the point. The point is I’ve
never had a match fail.”

“I’m just saying-“ Jerry gestured around the room, filled
with their friends and family, all celebrating before the wedding tomorrow. At
one of the tables, Maritza and Maddie were feeding each other pizza, or trying
to. Mostly they were smearing sauce and cheese over each other’s faces and
giggling like loons.

“You sure you didn’t plan this?”

Dipper had no idea all those years ago when he helped a lost
little girl with a soul so intimately familiar to him find her way through
a crowded mall
that they would meet again.

“Nope.”

Jerry snorted. “I don’t believe you.”

Maddie leaned in to give Maritza a kiss and strawberries
began to bloom big and fat off of Maritza’s antlers.

“You don’t have to believe me”

1. Pham Nha Hoa

He looked at the baby girl in his arms, so new, fresh like
the sorrow threatening to rip him in two.

Looked for any sign of his brother in her, and it was
unfair, bitterly unfair, Mabel wouldn’t want him to do this-

(Henry wouldn’t
want him to do this but Henry wasn’t here anymore, that was the fucking point-)

He was so busy looking into the infant’s eyes and
unconsciously striking terror into the hearts of the entire third floor of the
hospital that he missed it at first.

Hot golden tears splashed on Hoa’s cheeks as Dipper saw tiny
nubs from her head, spectral and bone white, which would one day become
graceful reindeer antlers. As his tear rolled down her face, a tiny sprout
emerged from her left antler nub, and from it bloomed a tiny white flower.

It smelt like pine trees and flannel and Henry’s shampoo,
and Dipper couldn’t do this, couldn’t fathom meeting Henry over and over again
like this it wasn’t the same it would never be the same-

He put Hoa gently back down in her crib, placing a kiss on
her forehead before he left.

It would be better for him, and for all the people who Henry
would be, if he stayed out of their lives entirely.

No need to weigh them down with his baggage.

Talks between Seiya and Mayordomogoliat

[22/05/2015 23:28:10] MayordomoGoliat: Also I got a thought, can the Woodsman be exorcised?

[22/05/2015 23:28:29] MayordomoGoliat: Reincarnation cycle for Henry post Woodsman goes like this as far as I understand

[22/05/2015 23:28:52] MayordomoGoliat: Henry Dies enters reincarnation cycle

[22/05/2015 23:29:25] MayordomoGoliat: Woodsman is a shell leftover powered by Dipper’s original power given to Henry

[22/05/2015 23:29:53] MayordomoGoliat: Woodsman haunts around the Gravity Falls forest

[22/05/2015 23:30:23] MayordomoGoliat: Maybe appears once or twice around the Shack from time to time on impulse

[22/05/2015 23:30:40] MayordomoGoliat: Maybe wants a mabel hug

[22/05/2015 23:31:18] Seiya: nooooo

[22/05/2015 23:31:34] Seiya: i don’t think he can be exorsized

[22/05/2015 23:31:40] Seiya: he’s too physical

[22/05/2015 23:31:47] Seiya: he’s alive in his own right at this point

[22/05/2015 23:31:55] Seiya: (#gdi dipper)

[22/05/2015 23:31:56] MayordomoGoliat: Still wants that mabel hug

[22/05/2015 23:32:10] Seiya: (mabel would give it to him)

[22/05/2015 23:32:30] MayordomoGoliat: (Mabel tears cause she’s seeing her husband again… somewhat

[22/05/2015 23:33:26] MayordomoGoliat: Anyway Henry eventually Reincarnates and the Woodsman is drawn to the new soul and sorta appears in the shadow

[22/05/2015 23:34:16] MayordomoGoliat: (have this weird metaphor that the Woodsman is the shadow caused by Dipper’s demonic fire shining in front of Henry’s Soul)

[22/05/2015 23:34:36] MayordomoGoliat: (and then the Woodsman leaves a mark on the wall behind said soul

[22/05/2015 23:34:44] MayordomoGoliat: (thus the Woodsman continues to exist

[22/05/2015 23:34:56] MayordomoGoliat: (Even after both the fire and the soul have left

[22/05/2015 23:35:10] MayordomoGoliat: It’s a weird metaphor allegory thing

[22/05/2015 23:35:12] MayordomoGoliat: I’m not sure

[22/05/2015 23:35:26] MayordomoGoliat: definitions about this sort of thing are a weak point

[22/05/2015 23:35:56] Seiya: no man that’s hella cool run with it

[22/05/2015 23:37:04] MayordomoGoliat: Anyway R!Henry is born with the ethereal horns

[22/05/2015 23:37:37] MayordomoGoliat: and the weird shadow for people with the sight

[22/05/2015 23:38:05] MayordomoGoliat: Person with the sight shines light on R!Henry = Huge ass scary shadow from hell

[22/05/2015 23:39:28] Seiya: not to mention those antlers.

[22/05/2015 23:39:42] Seiya: like if the antlers didn’t get them already teh shadow would lol

[22/05/2015 23:39:47] MayordomoGoliat: Antlers could be explained as having some Forest spirit ancestry

[22/05/2015 23:39:58] MayordomoGoliat: the huge fuck ass shadow bigger than the person thing

[22/05/2015 23:40:01] MayordomoGoliat: is harder to explain

[22/05/2015 23:40:38] MayordomoGoliat: Especially if the eyes light up with blue fire on the shadow

[22/05/2015 23:40:46] MayordomoGoliat: “Dude, your shadow is looking at me again.”

[22/05/2015 23:41:28] Seiya: wee teeny r!henry being very confused

[22/05/2015 23:42:36] MayordomoGoliat: Yes

[22/05/2015 23:43:15] MayordomoGoliat: poor R!Henry and the trouble of being partly supernatural cause your soul sorta evolved into a new more energy efficient form because someone pumped it full of demonic energy

[22/05/2015 23:43:34] MayordomoGoliat: That was the prevalent theory right?

[22/05/2015 23:43:49] Seiya: ye

[22/05/2015 23:43:49] MayordomoGoliat: Henry’s soul sorta evolved into a passive Magic siphon

[22/05/2015 23:43:53] Seiya: yup!

[22/05/2015 23:45:05] MayordomoGoliat: Tiny R!Henry almost getting run over by car but it never reaches him cause the car got smashed into the ground mysteriously

[22/05/2015 23:45:26] MayordomoGoliat: -yes ignore the weird fist like form in the car-

[22/05/2015 23:46:01] Seiya: tiny r!henry who…really doesn’t like wearing hats because it feels weird

[22/05/2015 23:46:49] MayordomoGoliat: tiny R!Henry keeps taking off those cute hats for the school play

[22/05/2015 23:47:55] MayordomoGoliat: R!Henry and the day he headbutted a lamppost while drunk and it fell over

[22/05/2015 23:48:20] MayordomoGoliat: Strong head

[22/05/2015 23:48:23] MayordomoGoliat: very strong head

[22/05/2015 23:48:53] Seiya: yup that has to be it

[22/05/2015 23:49:22] MayordomoGoliat: The one person with the sight who is R!Henry’s friends is just like: “Really? Really?”

[22/05/2015 23:50:06] Seiya: that person is both their lifelong friend and pretty much does that

[22/05/2015 23:50:08] Seiya: all the time

[22/05/2015 23:51:31] MayordomoGoliat: -both standing in jail for something minor- “Why am I friends with you?”

[22/05/2015 23:51:38] MayordomoGoliat: “Cause you love me”

[22/05/2015 23:51:45] MayordomoGoliat: “…”

[22/05/2015 23:51:58] MayordomoGoliat: “Also cause you say I have antlers and you find that fascinating.”

[22/05/2015 23:52:26] MayordomoGoliat: “Why couldn’t I leave well enough alone?”

[22/05/2015 23:52:49] Seiya: lol this r!henry never sees their antlers.

[22/05/2015 23:53:00] Seiya: or thinks what they do is anything odd or note worthy

[22/05/2015 23:53:06] Seiya: their friend despairs lol

[22/05/2015 23:53:24] MayordomoGoliat: “Your Shadow is glaring at me again.”

[22/05/2015 23:53:46] MayordomoGoliat: Woodsman: You’re supposed to keep other me from doing stupid shit.

[22/05/2015 23:55:16] MayordomoGoliat: Maybe the few times Woodsman appears R!Henry never remembers about it

[22/05/2015 23:56:29] MayordomoGoliat: Woodsman sitting on the curb with R!Henry’s friend: “Yes this is gonna sound sane, Hey you turned into a huge flaming tree spirit of the damned with an axe and saved use from a demon cult.” Woodsman shrugs “You’re no help at all.”

[22/05/2015 23:57:42] MayordomoGoliat: “Who or what the hell even are you?” Woodsman shrugs ‘who fucking knows man’

[22/05/2015 23:58:21] MayordomoGoliat: Clueless R!Henry, exasperated Best Friend and the Shadow that said best friend can see

[22/05/2015 23:59:02] Seiya: this sounds like the beginning of a sitcom

[22/05/2015 23:59:04] Seiya: but yes.

[22/05/2015 23:59:13] Seiya: i like the idea of the woodsman off doing his own thing

[22/05/2015 23:59:23] Seiya: but if an r!henry ever needs his power and axe

[22/05/2015 23:59:24] Seiya: he’ll be there

[22/05/2015 23:59:57] MayordomoGoliat: -pats best friend on the head, before transforming back into R!Henry-

[23/05/2015 00:00:30] MayordomoGoliat: “Hey wait,now I… have to carry you home.”

[23/05/2015 00:00:35] MayordomoGoliat: Eternal exasperation

[23/05/2015 00:00:42] MayordomoGoliat: “Damn”

[23/05/2015 00:01:28] Seiya: especially since r!henry is very dense for someone his size

[23/05/2015 00:01:34] Seiya: (kind of short and scrawny)

[23/05/2015 00:01:40] MayordomoGoliat: Him or her?

[23/05/2015 00:01:40] Seiya: (feels like he weighs double that)

[23/05/2015 00:01:51] MayordomoGoliat: “How are you so damn heavy?!”

[23/05/2015 00:01:54] Seiya: any r!henry lol

[23/05/2015 00:02:33] MayordomoGoliat: High metabolism which mean R!Henry eats a lot

[23/05/2015 00:05:06] MayordomoGoliat: The time R!Henry’s best friend decided to use R!Henry’s head for something useful. “Use your head” RH"BUT I Don’T WANNA USE MY HEAD.“ Battering Ram R!Henry

[23/05/2015 00:06:22] MayordomoGoliat: “How don’t I have a concussion?”

[23/05/2015 00:06:36] MayordomoGoliat: “I’ve concluded that you’re immune to head trauma.”

[23/05/2015 00:06:50] MayordomoGoliat: “Oh yeah and where does that theory come from poindexter?”

[23/05/2015 00:07:40] MayordomoGoliat: “The multiple times you crashed into a lamppost while drunk saying and I quote ‘get out of my fakin way bitch’ ”

[23/05/2015 00:08:07] MayordomoGoliat: -takes out notebook-

[23/05/2015 00:08:30] MayordomoGoliat: “About 47 times”

[23/05/2015 00:10:25] Seiya: r!henry has seven notebooks full of notes like this

[23/05/2015 00:11:06] MayordomoGoliat: R!Henry’s friend just keeps noting down the weird stuff

[23/05/2015 00:11:27] MayordomoGoliat: And it just doesn’t get through to R!Henry that it’s not very normal

[23/05/2015 00:11:44] Seiya: bless

[23/05/2015 00:13:25] MayordomoGoliat: And finally one day they happen to be near the Woodsman physical body and the friend is like at the woodsman “Yooouuuuuuuuu, it’s youuuuuuu! You’re responsible for this!”

[23/05/2015 00:13:52 | Edited 00:14:32] MayordomoGoliat: And R!Henry is wondering why their best friend is having a meltdown

[23/05/2015 00:14:06] MayordomoGoliat: In front of the very large wooden creature with an axe

[23/05/2015 00:14:14] MayordomoGoliat: God why is that creature so familiar

[23/05/2015 00:14:44] Seiya: there’s really no knowing

[23/05/2015 00:15:34] MayordomoGoliat: -pat pat- “Stop patting me on the head you overgrown shrub.”

[23/05/2015 00:16:16] MayordomoGoliat: Best friend is sick of your shit woodsman

[23/05/2015 00:17:23] Seiya: the woodsman can sense that this tiny irritated human has been taking care of his other self

[23/05/2015 00:17:27] Seiya: so they’re cool

[23/05/2015 00:19:04] MayordomoGoliat: I wonder if this would be Maritza

[23/05/2015 00:19:17] Seiya: could be!

[23/05/2015 00:19:22] MayordomoGoliat: I think we said this was R!Henry’s first incarnation

[23/05/2015 00:19:44] Seiya: i did, but then people were like OMG SHE CAN BE MADDIE’S GF RIGHT and i kind of went along with that too

[23/05/2015 00:19:54] Seiya: so maritza can be then or then lol

[23/05/2015 00:20:24] MayordomoGoliat: Doesn’t have to be mutually exclusive

The M Club

Okay, so I’m building off this fic where Maritza and Michael are friends and this headcanon  that Maritza and Maddie and Michael all meet at one point and turn into a supernatural-loving-all-our-names-start-with-M club and making Dipper go “why me?” and I was just thinking of how that first meeting would go.

Like, imagine…Maritza convinced Michael to go to Maddie’s house after school and they’re all playing in the front yard with Toby supervising and Michael’s really opening up and Dipper is just about dying at how cute and perfect it all is look look look at his babies! Sister-kid is already half in love with husband-kid, and they’re both being friends with previously-lonely little Michael oh my gods look at his little smile!!

And Dipper’s just about vibrating in joy over there on the porch when Michael looks over, stops dead, and goes, “…Alcor? What-what are you doing here?!”

And Maddie stops and goes, “Why are you calling my dad Alcor? His name is Tyrone!”

And Michael goes, “ALCOR IS YOUR DAD?!

And Maritza is lost and Toby is standing over there looking slowly from Michael to Dipper to Michael and his face is stuck somewhere halfway between curious and about to burst out laughing.

And that is when Dipper puts his head in his hands and goes, “Why me?”
