gravity falls

I keep thinking about the Pines family watching Back to the Future.
Dipper being a huge fan, and then freaking out when he realizes that Ford had gone through the portal before the first one came out, so he and Mabel force him to watch all three movies
And they get to the second movie, and Ford sees all this cool stuff of 2015, and he goes “we’re supposed to have all this stuff in 3 years? Excuse me, I have A LOT of inventing to do”

So I’m doing my college level math homework and my brother comes in, sees the work I’m doing and drops his jaw.
Then he tried to jokingly tell me he has harder math homework than me, and this is how the conversation went:

Brother: oh yeah, you think you’ve got hard problems? I…
Me (interrupting): IVE GOT A MULLET STANFORD

Ok I thought of something.
When Ford told Dipper his parents would love to have him teach him because he has 12 PhDs I immediately thought “um Ford, his education probably isn’t going to be the only thing they consider. Don’t you understand that?”
But think about it, he probably doesn’t understand that because of his dad. A Tale of Two Stans made it seem like Filbrick only showed any signs of caring about Ford when he was told Ford was so smart he could potentially be a millionaire. He only cared about education because he knew if one of his kids got a good enough job, they could “be our ticket out of this dump”

Me: I have a defending Mabel post all planned out in my head. It’ll be long and take a while to write, but it will be thorough
Schedule: but you have 5 math assignments to catch up on, and you still have to do math work from this week
Me: but if I do all that first, it’ll be so close to the next episode that I’m not sure anyone will still be defending Mabel and the post will seem out of place time wise
Schedule: need I remind you that everything has to be done in a couple of days. You don’t have time to make that post right now
Me: *sounds of distress*

“Nothing in this universe is gonna take away my uncle”

It gets sadder if only Dipper has memory on Ford.

Reblogging this again because I thought of something:
How about an au where this happens, and Dipper feels so guilty about how upset Stan is, that he tells Stan what happened and why he did that. And then they regularly bond over talks about missing Ford, and start doing things together that they would have done with Ford.
