Hm, just, y'know @institute-of-oddology-founder
“Okay, just so we’re clear, a version of me died in your world, and now you want to take me to yours to be a replacement? “That’s right.” “….Don’t you see how messed up that is??”
The last ask I answered opened up the floodgates to the lore I've been working on for Nimirylov's family. So, now, I feel the need to share information about the sister of his I briefly mentioned.
She's older by a few years but, 1. She abdicated the role of heir and 2. She's very irresponsible and nobody wanted her to have power over the kingdom.
She shows up to visit every few years, and each time comes with more chaos. The specific reason as to why Ford dislikes her is because she taught little Penni how to make a whirlpool. Ford was very unhappy about a 7/8 year old Penni running around making whirlpools and causing chaos everywhere. Nimirylov wasn't happy either, but he has been dealing with his sister's antics since childhood.
Ooh, very okay.
I feel like I've got to make everyone following me aware that I hate dragons.
Sorry, not sorry.
Angst is my soul and crack ships are my blood.
Official post for me revealing that I've genuinely considered putting Fiddlestan in the Washed Away au because I love that ship. Unfortunately, I want it to be more similar to canon than that. Alas, I'll make Fiddlestan content eventually.
I think it’s absolutely hilarious that we both managed to independently come up with the idea of “Ford needs an alien spouse and a half alien daughter”. Like get that monsterfucker an alien wife/husband and make sure he can be the girl dad we always knew he could be. Superb.
I just scrolled all the way back to 2018 on your account and I'm disappointed to realise this is not something you've posted. Presumably.
I do agree though that Ford gives off girl dad energy in an unexplainable way. He's so babygirl that he needs an actual baby girl.
He also deserves to just have an alien spouse. Reward the monsterfuckers for once, y'know?
I feel the need to do something and post something right now so if anyone has any ideas, prompts or asks. Please interact with me now.
For now, though, poll!
I think I've already mentioned on here (I keep forgetting what I've posted versus what I've just told my friend), that a lot of what happens in canon can't happen in the Washed Away au because of Ford being more responsible. However, that doesn't mean Ford is entirely responsible and so, a minor spoiler to show you all.
Ford still gives Mabel a crossbow in The Last Mabelcorn. Just, instead of saying,
"It's okay to give children weapons, right?" He says,
"You're old enough to have been trained to use weapons, right?"
Now, this is because he and Nimirylov trained Penni on how to use weapons. Ford doesn't realise that's not normal, even for Nimirylov's dimension, let alone in his.
Dear Penni,
What are your thoughts on both of your parents? Are there any specific opinions you developed about them, or anything you feel stands out?
Hmm, I don't really know what to say about my thoughts about my fathers. It's an interesting question, but not one I'm quite sure about. It is quite vague... I suppose your follow-up questions add more clarification, though, so I'll just focus on them two!
My dad is the one I spend more time with because his work isn't confidential. That means that I can stay with him even while he's working on his smart science stuff. I do think, though, sometimes, that he's disappointed I don't find his work interesting. I wonder, only sometimes, if part of the reason he's so open to me spending time with him while he works is so that I end up interested in science too. I'm sure it's not, and he's never made me feel bad about not being fond of science, so it's probably just my imagination. After all, he always listens to me talk about what I do find interesting.
On the other hand, I think I'm more similar to pa. He's the one that got me interested in everything political after all, even if he can't tell me everything about it at the moment. He says I'm too young, and I've overhead him arguing with dad in the past about how loosely he parents. So, pa is definitely the stricter parent, but he's also more likely to explain himself when he tells me off, and he's the calmer one, with everything pretty much. I think pa is objectively the better parent then in that sense. He does seem to know more about parenting.
It's interesting to compare them both because they definitely both have things that I prefer for each of them. I do feel lonely a lot, even with both of them and everything they do. I don't know if that makes me ungrateful, because I can anything I want in the world.
Anything, that is, but a friend...
Well, I suppose that's as good a place as any to end it. I don't want to start sounding spoiled, even if I am a princess.
Princess Penni.
Can people in the fandom acknowledge that Mabel is also clearly a nerd, but she just doesn't show it? Like, one scene that always sticks with me is at the start of Dipper and Mabel versus the Future, they talk about high school. Mabel says that they learn about "You know what" and Dipper's reply is "Trigonometry!"
You would think that the next reply to this would be Mabel calling Dipper a nerd or something, but she replies with the same level of enthusiasm. She says "Oh yeah baby."
Only nerds are excited to learn about fucking trigonometry. Mabel is a fucking nerd.
I agree. Absolutely love her and need more content of her. Please?
