Bill Cipher, except he genuinely CANT LIE.
Like, at all. Legitimately he is incapable of telling a lie.
Like sure, he can certainly dodge questions, or maybe create a loophole or two- But if you were to ask him a question directly with no way of avoiding it- HE HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO BE HONEST. And this fudges him over on multiple accounts.
And when he’s trying to dodge questions to avoid giving away his secrets or intentions- I want you to envision the scene from Shrek 3, where Pinocchio is being interrogated by Prince Charming concerning Shreks whereabouts- See here and he’s just RAMBLING-
Now, despite everything, this doesn’t change much. He still has flattery tactics and is careful with his worlds- Despite all his smarts Ford can still be blinded by his own hubris. So the whole portal thing goes down similarly to canon… Untill the portal incident happens.
With Ford stuck in the portal, Bill had no way of rebuilding it seeing that nobody would be willing… Aside from STANLEY PINES who is at a loss at what to do. The perfect willing assistant in rebuilding the portal. And bill wouldn’t have to lie that much cuz their goals really do aline somewhat… So, the demon tries to strike a deal…
This is when shit hits the fan for Bill.
And hey, let’s even go as far as to exaggerate the whole “Must return his half of the deal no matter what” portion of Bill’s deal making abilities. With this in mind, let’s take a look at EX CON STANLEY PINES who can sniff out a bad deal in no time- Due to his years of experience on the streets. And being the con artist that he is, Stanley being confronted by another con artist who can only tell the truth and also is confined to whatever deals they make… Well, this can only go well for him.
So Stanley tricks Bill- As he would in most dimensions if you get my gist. While Bill is offering unlimited knowledge in exchange for Stan’s compliance or something- Stan can easily twist Bills words against themselves and long story short- Bill is now trapped in Stanley’s debt and is confined to… Hmmm…
Let’s say he’s stuck constantly possessing a little magic 8 ball. And whoever shakes him, he’s forced to admit information to. A seriously bad deal on his part, an extremely great one on Stan’s part. So, Bill must help Stan get on with the portal without any sort of escape…
What’s even worse is that as time goes on, sometimes Stan even uses Bill as one of his ATTRACTIONS. (Honestly, Bill is lucky. Stan had been seconds away from binding the demon to a Zoltar machine-)
And time passes just as it would in canon, that is, untill the little pines twins come around to stay for the summer. And while I haven’t thought too hard about what the episodes looks like as I imagine it all doesn’t change too much- However. One thing that inspired this whole thing is how the kids are first introduced to bill- Something like:
Stan: Here kids- Meet Bill. This guy will answer all your pesky little questions.
Dipper: …Grunkle Stan, you named your magic 8 ball Bill?
Stan: Huh? Nah, he was called that when I first got him. Also Bill is just this all-knowing demon thing that I trapped inside of that ball in like… What was it- Was it- 85? Bah whatever-
Dipper: A demon…
Mable: *Eyes sparkling* Can I shake it???
Stan: *Tosses the ball casually* Sure knock yourself out kid.
Mable: Woahhhh…
Dipper: What is that thing… Is that… A triangle?
Stan: Welp. I’ll let you kids have at it- OH YEAH. He can’t lie so there’s that.
Or something like that. Haven’t worked out the kinks yet, but I think in this scenario Stan lets the kids mess around with Bill sometimes in hopes that the knowledge he possesses can help prevent the kids from like- Getting themselves in danger or something. And once the kids realize that they can just twist their words in order to make Bill slip and give helpful information- Well I can only imagine their shithead grins as Bill curses to the heavens. Dipper and Bill will banter a lot, with Bill obviously doing his best to break this pre-pubescent boys self esteem but it only assists in Dippers character development. Meanwhile, Bill and Mable can be lowkey chaotic and he could even respect her antics- If not for her whole “empathy and emotions” thing. (Perhaps a teensy bit of character development in places… But if Bill is a master of anything in any dimension, it is DENIAL-)
I think weirdmaggedon might still happen and there will be this whole rift thing and stuff- it’s still relatively similar. Maybe a different ending? Or another deal? Who knows. But this was just a silly thought I had- I can only imagine the names if I decide to invest time into it.
Magic 8 Bill AU? Or something? I might make some art for it if I’m being completely honest- Just a funny thought yk?
Yay Relativity Falls stuff- Just a random idea I had for a possible episode/chapter. You know that one GF short where it’s revealed that Mable has a fear of Claymation? Yeah. We expand on that into a full fledged adventure in this AU. Idk how, but it definitely starts with Mable officially banning claymation/stop motion in the household. So, OBVIOUSLY Stan and Ford have to change her mind by making the worlds best stop motion animation ever in the span of a week- Possibly awakening some ancient claymation spirit in the process… What could possibly go wrong?
Also if you can’t read my handwriting in the little cartoon panels- Sorry but make your best guess cuz I’m too lazy to translate rn lol
I’ll probably make more of my relativity falls content at some point, expand on the lore and how I changed things and whatnot- But for now- Meh!
This is the best I’m wheezing this feels so canon-
like Filbrick pissed on some ancient enchantress so bad that she decided to curse the bloodline. That’s why no pines can get a date that lasts.
wrote this a while ago on the tube. Please steal the idea and run with it. Idk if I’m gonna…
Dipper wanted to ask Pacifica Northwest out. They’d been friends for 4 years, texted all the time, and they kept having these intimate moments that ended in awkwardness. Pacifica even said she’d be upset if Dipper dated someone else! It was practically a done deal.
Except every time he tried to ask her out, something went comically wrong. The first time, at the beginning of the summer, dipper was about to ask, when Stan came out completely naked. Apparently, he’d pissed off a gang of pixies, who kept stealing Stan’s clothes as he was putting them on. Needless to say, it ruined the moment.
The second time, they were at the lake. It was just Dipper and Pacifica, a nice quiet day. But just as the sun was setting and Dipper was about to ask, the Gobblewonker decided to take a bite out of the boat, and they had to swim to shore. The gobblewonker barely came out in the day! It was absurd!
Then there was the time with the gnomes, that one time a piano fell out of nowhere, when Ford accidentally set the stanleymobile on fire, when that witch decided to turn pacifica into a tapeworm… it was frankly ridiculous how many things kept getting in their way. After the 27th time, Dipper had had enough.
“I don’t get it, Mabel!” Dipper said, pacing around their room, “Yesterday, i tried to ask her out and I was STRUCK BY LIGHTNING! It wasn’t even raining! It’s like I’m cursed or something!”
Mabel was dressing up waddles as she considered this. “maybe you ARE cursed, dip!”
Dipper stopped pacing and turned to Mabel.
“OF COURSE! That’s the ONLY. Possible explanation! Someone or something must be pissed that I’m trying to ask Pacifica out!” Dipper resumed his pacing. “But who…”
Mabel looked at dipper with wide eyes. “I have an idea, dipper! The Woodstick Festival is back in town next week, and guess who’s going to be there” Mabel shoved a poster in Dipper’s face. He grabbed it and then looked at Mabel.
“The love god? Doesn’t he hate you for stealing his potion or something?”
Mabel waved him off.
“Pffft water under the bridge, brother. We can ask him for advice on whatever love curse you got!”
So the next day, the two went looking for the Love God. It wasn’t hard, they just had to follow the trail of kissing teens to greasy’s. They sat opposite from him, uninvited, and gave him a look.
“Ah, you kids looking for some love?” Love god said. Dipper glared, and Mabel stuck out her hand.
“Hi, I’m Mabel! Big fan of your work!”
“I know you! You stole my love potion!”
Mabel looked away sheepishly. “ uh… sorry about that. I realised it was a bad idea pretty quick. Anyway my brother needs your help!”
Love god turned to look at Dipper. He gave him a charming grin. “How can I help you, kid! You seem like you would be into …” Love God closed his eyes and wiggled his fingers, “…lumberjacks and mean girls. I can do that in a heartbeat, just say the word!”
Dipper blushed. “Um no thanks, mr Love God. Actually I think I’m cursed.”
“Ahh” replied Love God, “I see what’s going on. Look, kid, it’s normal for boys your age to feel like you’re cursed when It comes to lo-“
“Like actually cursed! Not just bad at talking to women!” Said dipper. The love god gave him a strange look.
“Kid I’m telling you, it’s probably nothing.”
Dipper sighed. “Can you just check! Please, then we’ll leave you alone.”
The love god sighed and held out his hand. Warily, dipper took it. Love God sprayed some blue liquid onto dippers face and waved his arms around. He looked confused, so he did it again. And again. He then let go of dipper’s hand.
“What is it?” Asked dipper. Love God ignored him and turned to Mabel.
“Give me your hand…”
Mabel offered it and Love god did the same to Mabel. He gave both of them a grave look.
—————————
“Our bloodline is cursed?!” Cried Ford at dinner that night.
“That’s what the love god said” dipper said with a sigh, “cursed to have terrible love lives.”
“Honestly, that explains some things” said Stan.
“The worst part” cried Mabel, “is that we can’t break it without figuring out who cast it! How am I supposed to find the perfect boyfriend like this!” She cried into the table. Ford got a look of consideration on his face, before he pulled out the second journal.
“Don’t worry kids, we can summon the person who cast the curse with this Curse Tracing spell I found in the 70s! It will bring them here, and then we can demand they break it!”
So half an hour later, the Pines’ were standing in a circle, chanting something in Latin.
—————
the idea I had was that the Pines (read: Stan) have to reconcile with all their exes before the curse is lifted. I think it would be funny. But please! Steal the idea! Make it your own! I want other people’s ideas constantly.
I LOVE THIASSSSSS
