Silver Morning
A/N: Secret Santa for @mayormcdodd! They wanted something related to the Bentley fics, and who am I to refuse that? This was a bit self-indulgent, but I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it!
Sunlight streamed in the window; paler than gold, more silver. Torako, still half-asleep, gazed at the way it spilled over the folds of the blankets, over the skin of her bare arms, over the glint of Dipper’s claws and how the back of Bentley’s jaw was lit, soft. She blinked, slow, looked at the shadows, the depth of them, the way they pooled opposite the light, the line of them on the wall, moving up and across in a temporary cast of them, of Torako and her boys, against the pale green paint.
She’d missed this.
My @transcendence-au secret santa gift for @hashtagraptorsquad! You wanted Transcendence Star Wars, you got it! I hope this is what you were looking for. :33
(We have Alcor as Luke, Mabel as Leia, Henry as Han, Ian as Obi-Wan, Gideon as Tarkin, Torako as C-3PO, Bentley as R2-D2, and Bill as Vader)

Alright! paranoiapines asked for for something with Ian and Mira, or Torako. I tried my best, and continued my unusual tradition of having Mod K’s characters finding Alcorian TV shows (whoops).
Summary: Torako finds a really old cartoon called “Mizar the Magnificent”
The internet was a wonderful place. The internet allowed people to communicate from across the globe, provided free and accessible information to the masses, and was the largest source of news in the world. In the past, it had spawned massive social movements and been a key part in uniting people from countries worldwide. Oppressive governments had feared its power, going so far as to censor its content, because they knew that if their citizens had access to the knowledge it provided, they would rally and rebel.
And Torako was using it to post Twin Souls fan fiction.
Suddenly I am of the strong urge to read something–anything, be it angst or comedy or something else entirely–titled “The Lament of Torako Lam”. Can I request it for fic open season? o3o
Fic open season go!
okay but picture Bentley going grocery shopping late in the evening and is accompanied by Dipper and a drunk Tora who keeps trying to slip her favorite snacks in Bentley’s basket like the little shit she is but then
ben: (slaps hand away trying to slide gummy bears into basket) god damn it tor-
dipper: (sweats loudly)
ben: ….. (stares at incredulously) ….. see, tora has an excuse. she’s drunk. she’s also 25. would you care to tell me why you, alcor the almighty dreambender with thousands of years under his belt has reduced to imitating a giggling tipsy girl a fraction of your age.
dipper: ……… (sweats louder)
dipper: …. but… they’re….. gumm y be a r s………
The more Mod Z draws Alcor, the longer Alcor’s ponytail grows. Eventually he will have such a fabulous waterfall of hair.
ft. teasing by Torako.
[mod z: WOW U WANNA FITE ME, U WANNA GO M8, I PUNCH VERY HARD WITH MY TINY RAT FISTS U WILL CRY I PROMISE U]
[Mod O: I CAN TAKE YOU AND YOUR TINY RAT FISTS. BRING IT!]
You know, I really like these two. I’ve never been able to draw Bentley properly though. I think this is the closest I’ve gotten.
Dipper being obsessed with teaching Bentley and Torako about earth TV from our time so he shows them to the two in their dreams. On Halloween they all dress up and people are like “what are you supposed to be???” “I’m Black Canary” “Tora that isn’t a thing” “hell yeah it is”
You know how old tv shows and movies from the 1950′s and before are kind of quaint and boring to us now? The ways of storytelling have changed so much, and the technology used to tell them has advanced radically. It would be like that but in far greater magnitude for people in Bentley and Torako’s time, since they live two millennia in the future, not to mention the language barrier.
It would be as if someone from the present day were to dress up as, oh Chaerephon from Aristophanes’ play The Clouds from 423 BCE, after seeing the entire play in its original Greek language and context. In other words, rather unlikely. Maybe at least the costumes would be interesting even if the shows weren’t, but maybe they’d just look hokey and old to the two.
