In light of a recent post I’ve seen going around, and the upcoming Mabel-heartbreak that’s sure to happen in the episode “Dipper and Mabel vs. The Future,” I thought it was high time for the Gravity Falls fandom to have a Mabel Pines Appreciation Week!
Mabel is a really important character to me and plenty of little girls out there, and she really doesn’t get the love and attention from the fandom that she deserves. So after talking about it with @agentsnickers, I’ve decided to host a fan-week just for everyone’s favorite sweater-wearing, pig-owning 12 year old.
Here’s the plan: from November 16, 2015–November 22, Gravity Falls fans come together to blow up the Mabel Pines tag with lovely fanart, fanfics, photosets, cosplay, whatever you choose!
Here are some daily prompts to help you get some inspiration:
Day 1: Favorite Sweater(s)/ Arts &Crafts: Mabel’s a crafting genius, as evidenced by all her hand-knit sweaters. Show her with your favorite Mabel-Sweater, a sweater you’d love to see her in, or for you fic-writers out there, have her working her creative juices in some way.
Day 2: Favorite AU: Kind of a self-explanatory one. Got an AU-version of Mabel you really like? Why not show her a bit of love?
Day 3: Waddles: Show Mabel and her devotion to her pet pig!
Day 4: Favorite Ship: Mabel’s had plenty of summer romances, most of which haven’t turned out so well. Highlight your favorite one! Or go ahead and pick your favorite non-canon ship. All I ask is that you please, PLEASE do not put any pedophilia/incest in the Appreciation tag. I want it to stay a friendly, positive, controversy-free space.
Day 5: Family/Friend Bonding: Mabel’s got a big heart and is super loyal to the people she cares about. Show her with some of her favorite people in her life; Dipper, Stan, Ford, Candy, Grenda, Soos, Wendy, or even people you’d like to see her get closer to, like Pacifica or Robbie.
Day 6: Favorite Moment: There are plenty of amazing Mabel moments in the show, from silly one-liners to super emotional to hardcore. So go ahead and redraw that screenshot, tell that scene from another character’s POV, or convert that scene to fit an AU. Your choice!
Day 7: Your Pick: Show Mabel however you want!
If you participate, please tag all your posts with #Mabel Pines and #Mabel Pines Appreciation Week so that everyone can see them!
For this little project of mine to work, I need for everybody to please share this with your followers and encourage them to participate. I’ll be posting periodic reminders as the date draws closer, but please do the best you can to share this post in order to spread the Mabel love!
yes please post reminders because I’ll certainly forget
