God Toby why must you be so cute.
(
That’s totally not one of Catcor’s extra shirts he’s wearing because he didn’t have anything else and Alcor wouldn’t let him wander around in thin dirty clothes and gave him one of his extra shirts nope definitely not what are you talking about)

Toby: oh, who wants a Toby, Toby, Toby? Dipper:… Toby: so don’t be so mopey, mopey, mopey! Cheer up! Cheer up. *Dipper bangs head into a wall*
OMG I’M PISS
I present to you this R!Acacia OC
Her name is Bridget King. She is athletic, steadfast, adventurous, and proud. She’s also a few months older, possibly Australian, and blind in her right eye.
Bridget met Toby the first year Alcor enlisted him in grade school. Some kids were bulling him for having one eye. They said he was too chicken to fight because he knew he would loose. Bridget came up and asked what was wrong with having one eye. one bully said that one-eyed kids can’t win in fights. She challenged him, but he refused. “I can’t hit you. You’re one-eyed AND a g-” Pow! She hit the little spit right in the eye with perfect aim. After that, she started hanging out with him and they became friends. On their first play date, Alcor learned who she used to be and double face palmed.
Growing up, they were best friends and perfect compliments. Toby was cautous, she was adventurous. Toby was quiet, she wasn’t afraid to speak up. She got in a lot of trouble, Toby was well-mannered and could talk them out of it. Toby wanted to help everyone, she only cared about the well-being of herself and those closest to her. Toby blended in, she had a loud presence. Toby is guilty for his past, she focuses in the present. Toby is short, she is tall. Toby is blonde, she is a brunette. The list goes on.
They are close, but more of a platonic couple. However, they /do/ get married in their early twenties. They went to Vegas for Bridget’s birthday, got drunk, and woke up to find that they were married (all her idea). Alcor insisted that they get a divorce, but Toby didn’t really mind because it kept people from hitting on him and Bridget was too proud to call it a mistake. “It’s a good financial oppertunity. We don’t have to act like a married couple, but we can stay married for the tax benefits.”
She grows up to be an environmentalist/activist. There are supernatural creatures that don’t communicate with people and like to stay far away in their habitats. She fights people that try to hunt such creatures and that destroy their habitats. As a result, she is almost always out somewhere in the world, mainly her birth-place in Australia. She was tied to a pine tree protecting a forest when Toby died and she blames Alcor for his death. She wouldn’t talk to him for a while and Alcor doesn’t know what to do because R!niblet chose R!Bill over him-but she’s Bridget, not Acacia, and has different opinions from his Pole Star. (I want to believe they reconnect over Maddie.)
Also, she sometimes babysits Maddie. Alcor finds it amusing because R!daughter taking care of R!mother, but surprisingly has Toby babysit more. Maddie always gets into more trouble if she is with Bridget for too long.
Appearence: Green/Amber eyes, slightly pointed ears, and short, wavy brown hair. Typically wears a braid over her right eye that she will play with or redo when she’s bored. She’s tall for her age and towers Toby. She usually wears
Note: After I wrote this, I found the HC about Mackenzie (AKA Mack) and realized she was verry similar in concept and how/where/when she met Toby. Oops! I’ll leave it up to the mods or Mack’s op to decide if they’re the same person, but I don’t see her as extremely violent.
Further Note: I forgot that Toby was Australian, so that could change. The point is that she protects creatures because she grew up surrounded by them. She used to live in a supernatural animal preserve.

Toby wanting to do something nice for Alcor one day when he’s home alone, so he tires
to bake a cake but he accidentally sets the whole kitchen on fire,
Meanwhile Dipper is at a boring summons when he feels Toby’s absolute
distress, so he blips home to the house in flames and Toby’s continuous
and endless apologies. Toby blubbering and crying his eyes out while
Dipper is just like ‘OMFG Jesus Christ on a Hot Wheel wHY ME’ as he puts
the fire out.
Toby apparently has burn scars and that makes me sad for the little babu. Here’s him older.
I imagine he remains extremely bony and thin throughout his life. He wears long sleeves and covers his eye all the time even in the summer, less because he’s uncomfortable with his body than he doesn’t want to make people uncomfortable or sad looking at him. Also I drew him with like a super triangular nose because I think it’s funny that like, one would expect it to be a round little button to maximize the cute but nah he’s got that Bill influence still.
It is difficult to draw things like burn scars and burnt eyes when you feel vaguely nauseous looking at references >.>
I have no idea how to tag this so if you would like it tagged with somethin just let me know!
TOBY BAB
A Guide to Toby
Toby is probably my favorite character from Transcendence AU, partly because I feel like I had a major hand in making him. How, you ask? I was the anon who headcanoned that he was blind in one eye! I will revel in this fact whether you believe me or not.
Anyway, I decided to create a guide to his character for all your fanfic and fan art needs. I added everything, even headcanons, unless it was explicitly stated to not be canon. I didn’t focus on Dipper’s reaction to all this very much; more just Toby himself. All this info is as of 4/17/15.
ALL TOBY ALL THE TIME
(but seriously, thank you soooo much! This is great!)
(For a fic I’m working on) Where do Toby and Maddie grow up? Is it in the Gravity Falls area, or somewhere else completely?
Gravity Falls area, at least for Maddie (to be close to Jerry, the nibling of Dipper’s that currently lives in the Shack and runs the Library)
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?”
Headcanon: Alcor’s “Mark” tends to make predators wary of the marked one, since it means there’s something far bigger and badder protecting the person, but prey are attracted to the person since they can leech off of the marked person’s safety. Alcor’s super overprotective about both Madeline and Toby, so they get pretty strong Marks… so they get lots of birds, butterflies, squirrels, etc. (Madeline looks and acts like a literal Disney princess. Poor Toby sneezes a lot because he’s allergic.)
I’ M C R E Y
Alcor is deep in denial as he drift along to look after his cinnamon bun; it’s only to prevent it from becoming a monster-pyramid like one before. Not to ensure the structure holds, and the foundation is stable, or in any other way keep said bun safe and happy. Nope, not at all.
