I agree with your thoughts on the importance of the relationship Wendy and Mabel have. And I would like to add that Wendy probably really enjoys having a younger girl to engage with. She also strikes me as being fairly protective of Mabel in a way she isn’t with Dipper (or at least never had a chance to show) best demonstrated in The Last Mabelcorn when she went on the adventure to stop these younger girls from stepping into a bear trap and was later the most vocal in calling out the unicorn.

Sorry for the late responce anon!

I never picked up on her protectiveness, but wow that’s a really good point! 

And to add onto your point that Wendy probably likes having a younger girl to talk with, I saw someone point out in the tags that that Wendy comes from a family of all boys. To expand on that and be more specific, Wendy has been living in a family without a mom for a while. If I were to guess her youngest brother’s age, and if we were to assume her mom left/died (probably died) not long after her youngest brother was born, it’s likely that Wendy went through her preteen years without a mother in her life, so it’s probably really meaningful to her to be able to be that older girl role model for someone else who also doesn’t have their mom around (even if it is just a temporary separation)

I’m honestly fascinated by what Ford decided to put in invisible ink. I know he was panicked and just decided that everything should be in invisible ink but seriously,

Cursed spell that raises the dead? This seems like a good thing to put in ink that literally anyone can read
Directions on how to kill the dead so the zombie apocalypse doesn’t end the world? Better put that in invisible ink
