Synopsis: Growing up is tough especially when you don't know that your a half to a duo.
Do You Ever just wonder what it would be like if Stan and Ford were separated at birth?
Woo new chapter is out now
I LOVE IT
I haven't seen GF in years but was abruptly reminded a while ago and found your blog and your Pinecest+Stancest posts while looking at the Pinecest tag so I gotta share this plot that's now trapped in my brain. If I got the details about canon wrong, blame the passage of time, not me lol.
Ok I'm sure I'm not the only one who came up with that but: Mutually Unrequited/Pining Stans that both never acted on their feelings and spent the entire separation depressed about it and blaming the way they were hiding their feelings partially for how things went down. Enter Pinecest, only just clocking that this is Not Normal Sibling Feelings.
Stan encourages it when he first realizes it because he never got to even try, but maybe Mabel and Dipper can be happy. So he bullies any boys Mabel brings home, shuts down Dipper's flirt attempts with Wendy & Pacifica - Dipper catches on to his feelings first and wants to prove to himself that he's NORMAL OKAY??? he is, in fact, super not normal, but he'll scream that he is at the top of his lungs - and then Ford returns.
Ford also immediately catches on to Dipper's crush. Because he gets Dipper, and of course, he'd love his twin. He can't see Mabel's feelings as easily because he's insta-transferencing her and Stanley and the idea of her liking Dipper back is unfathomable (read: heartbreaking) because then it means perhaps Stanley could've loved him too.
But he cares about Dipper, so Ford thinks the best he can do is maybe help cut off those feelings at the knees before there's no going back for him, at least Dipper might not totally lose Mabel the way he and Stan thought they had lost each other, might eventually lead a normal non-recluse full of regrets life unlike them. So Ford offers to let Dipper stay without letting on his real reason to do so, and Mabel FLIPS OUT.
The thoughts have been building in the back of her head for a while, and she's suddenly confronted with what she never thought possible. Losing Dipper. And it hurts so so much and then Weirdmageddon comes and things go completely off the rails and now she knows she loves him but he's her brother, the world is ending and maybe he doesn't actually like her at all.
It ends with Dipper admitting to Mabel why he was even contemplating separation and Ford is trying to stop him while Stan has been working for this for months, damnit, and Ford's attempts at shutting the confession down just kill him. Dipper says it anyway, and Mabel thinks she's dreaming, but yeah, dummy, I love you too. How could you even think otherwise?
And seeing their dramatic first kiss totally guts Ford. He's happy for them, clearly, but he wants this oh so much and he can't have it. Stanley is shocked at how much Ford's affected by this development and things just blow up from there, and before either of them know it they're kissing.
Meanwhile Mabel and Dipper finally remember where they are and who they're with and fuck this is going to be difficult to explain - wait wtf GRUNKLES WHAT ARE YOU DOING. Well nothing they weren't right before that.
The rest of summer is an insanely awkward transition period where both couples are trying to work out how to deal with this new dynamic and what it means for their lives, especially for when Dipper and Mabel go back home. But everyone is insanely happy and when Dipper and Mabel come back to GF it's together, to a married couple of Grunkles (in everything except the eyes of the law).
And perhaps someday a - but lbr it'll be two - Pinecest Baby crawls around the Mystery Shack to everyone's delight...
ANON YOU'RE SO CRACKED AAAAAAAAH
such a cute premise of them finding out about each other's budding relationships despite the warnings from Ford and adamant attitude from Stan. SO good. flavor.
also implying that ford and stan were like watching/listening from around the corner or something is peak. honestly? this ask means so much to me.
note to self: write a fic outline later for Accidental Pinecest AU so you can write it after finishing s2
tl;dr dipper disguises himself for an investigation of a monster & mabel gets a new Summer Romance without realizing her mysterious crush is her own brother this time. dipper is panicking the whole time but can't find it within himself to clear the misunderstanding when mabel is so happy
Nunca lo había pensando para ellos, pero creo que tiene sentido(?) Uno de los creadores dijo que había pensando la canción como desamor
"Enamorado tuyo" (In love with you) by Uruguayan band, Cuarteto de Nos, is such a stancest song, and it could very well be sung to each other when trying to get over their relationship, in denial that they love each other.
"And if you think I'm in love with you, that's an invention, I intuit, don't give credit to murmurs." This part is self-explanatory: they have always been known to have each other's back, and suddenly, it's not the case. Nobody believes they stopped caring for one another.
"Because I rarely call to tell you I love you, and more than once, I've done it to the wrong number" This represents the need that they have to contact one another but won't out of pride; Stanley's call that he hanged up despite desperately needing his brother, as well as Ford saving Stanley's scam number; the final straw between him and Bill when the demon called Stanley to tell him he was going to kill himself and remark he "never loved him." Ford was angry for a reason, Bill lied.
Also, the "and more than once I've done it to the wrong number" is them convincing themselves they love other people instead of their twin. Stanley's failed marriage and Ford's "Muse."
"Rarely is the time I get desperate to have you by my side, and that doesn't mean it has a meaning." This one is entirely on Ford being the worst person ever. At his lowest point, the only person who comes to mind who he can trust is Stanley, and once he is there, he only asks him to get away instead of embracing him. Stanley's clearly not the case. He misses Ford every single day of his life, but he can hide it from others.
"If you think love is what I feel, please, don't make a fuss. Don't tell your people about our issue. " This adds to Ford's paranoia and secretive nature. He wants all the details about his private life to be private.
"Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen. I have envisioned singing you 《see you later.》 Don't dress up. Don't pretend you are never seen; I have a song that says, 《See you, lady》" This is Stanley after bringing Ford back and seeing how his brother just pushes him. He wants to pretend he is stronger than that, and he would part ways at any moment despite not wanting to.
"I rarely see your picture on my cellphone. It is still there because I'm too lazy to press *delete.*" This is the holding onto pictures and objects that remind them of each other. Especially Ford, who has a picture of them as kids in his coat, which was always in his pocket.
"I'm not that obsessed, to clarify, if you think that's why I sing this song." This is just them reiterating their denial.
Overall, I already love this song and find it so fitting, even if we make it not incestuous, it would still remark their relationship.
Also, because the Latin American dub was made in Argentina (which is next to Uruguay and very culturally alike) it's easy for me to envision them singing this song and fitting them so much.
Shoutout to all the non-stancesters that make animations for Ford & Stan to various love songs. You confuse me but ily

Stan trying to flirt his way out of situations - a fiddlestan comic
(If u saw this on twitter a few days ago shh. I completely forgot to post here KWUCDJJF)
okay this is no shade at all but where is this world that people live in where bottom ford is the main take??? and where can i go to be a part of that world /lh because I've been seeing so many people say bottom stan is unpopular but like...that's literally the more popular dynamic i see on ao3 and tumblr..?
AGAIN ALL PREFERENCES ARE VALID and it really doesn't matter like I'm of the opinion that they switch and I'm happy as long as they're making out sloppy and fucking but like????
i guess im just confused bc literally i feel like the majority of content IS bottom stan. is it because of like...activity? or maybe bottom ford enjoyers are more vocal??? i need to study this
What Space Faith Can Occupy, TC Tolbert
I just watched a Stan animatic called 'If I Could Tell Him' (YouTube) and damn it, I don’t want to disrespect the person who made it because they specified that it’s not a ship and it’s totally platonic. But for someone who didn’t know they’re brothers, it seems like they’re confessing their love to each other, and it made me ship them even more. In my defense it wasn’t the ideal song choice haha 😭
I have a personal love of the idea of Ford and Stan being confused for married husbands on the open sea, like people just assume they’re together and they just…go with it 🤭
I love that idea too!! If we put aside the "they literally look the same" aspect they certainly have all the merits to be confused for husbands. Wdym you're travelling across the world together on your tiny boat with a single bed? It's always fun to imagine how would they react (ESPECIALLY in pre-relationship) to the "so how long have you been together" question. I think Stan would panic a bit and get self-conscious ("do we really look like that? am i ogling my brother's ass too obviously??"), but Ford would instantly snatch an opportunity to act all romantic with Stan (in public!! aint that a jackpot). He's saying the corniest shit like "oh, we've known each other since we were kids, but it's only recently I've realized the love of my life was by my side all along" and while people think it's cute Stan is mortified. And of course they don't talk about it back at the boat. It's just a prank, right? A silly joke. Nothing weird was happening, nevermind all that ^_^ Please tell me how do you see it!! You can have all sorts of approaches with an idea like that so I'll be happy to see other people's perspectives (i love stancest fandom sm!!!!!!)
The meaning of that sentence is: "It's all your fault that my brother and I are sleeping together!!"
too lazy to type the dialogue lol
I feel Fiddleford would have to make these two stop fighting all the time.
I did it once and the author blocked me and I promised myself never to do it again :((
BTW i see these posts all the time like "ohhh i dont know what to comment on fics.." and every response is "keysmashes! or hearts!! anything works :3" and thats GREAT!! thats helpful!!
but: consider. if u genuinely like analyzing writing.. do u know ur just allowed to go through and quote your favorite parts and ramble abt what they mean to u and the author will LOSE IT WITH HYPE?
genuinely. i felt SO WEIRD the first time i did it.. but like. holy shit authors love it. its crack for authors. the first time i did it, it was on a fic that hadnt updated in half a year, give or take, and the author made 3 updates that month BECAUSE OF MY COMMENT.
LIKE. as an author every comment is INCREDIBLE!!! but also, dont feel like your comment has to be short or otherwise ur invasive or smth!! authors ADORE long comments more than ANYTHING.
Book of bill spoilers
Bro 💔💔💔💔
Fanart for one of my favorite bits from @littlelilliana15‘s fic right here!
I’m a sucker for a protective Ford and an even bigger sucker for Stan getting some hurt/comfort. I highly recommend giving it a read!
Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

Ford loves stan so much it’s embarrassing like,,,we get it you want to fuck your brother,,,,,
LITERALLY i cannot stop thinking about how much he wants that motherfucking cookie and has THE WORST POSSIBLE COPE FOR IT
like look at this man. brothers dont look at their brothers like that. hes so hopelessly downbad in every conceivable way
thats not even touching on how despite how he acts, he actually cares SO much about what stan thinks of him. like despite spending 30 years of his life trying to bring his brother back, stan actually plays the hating game WAY harder and more convincingly than ford. which says so god damn much about how stupidly down bad ford is
like is he so SO fucking bothered that stan thinks hes a dangerous know it all? literally tossing and turning at sleep about his regrets about bill, fiddleford and the portal and you get stans voice just booming over this "TRUST NO ONE" which says sm about how he feels about stan not trusting him and how he regrets that too— despite the fact he clearly doesnt trust stan hes upset that stan feels the same
and ugh fucking look at this man. how you gonna threaten to kick this man out when youre cheesing at him at almost any concievable moment. inviting him to play your nerd game with him and your nephew (which btw is funny as hell of him when theyre ON BAD TERMS). when asking where hes been. theres no need to do all that
mind you you literally never catch stan ever smiling at ford after tots and pre-weirdmageddon make up unless hes mocking ford. which is really fucking embarrasisng i hate him so much SJBFSUXJSJJDDU
🌌 Find comfort for two souls 🌌
Ford being overly affectionate to Stan hah
Your recent stancest ask about fem!Stan dating and Ford going crazy over it mentioned Stan possibly dating someone older and while you probably meant a bit older, I couldn't help but think of a 2Fords AU where the person she winds up dating is older Ford. And whether or not Stan and/or young Ford knows that the person she is dating is an older version of Ford, I still think it would drive young Ford absolutely nuts.
I'm SLAMMING my fist on the table, because NO, don't assume, alright?? don't assume I'm some coward who's into mild, few years large, age gaps. An age gap should be at the very least 10 years large, to qualify as such. And NOW, let me SMOOCH you sloppy, bugs bunny style, because adult Ford, especially 60s Ford, travelling back in time to "protect" but eventually being the WEAK ass pervert that he is, dating his teenage sister is. Fuck I'm shaking. It's peak ok?. I was looking for an opportunity to mention it, to serenade the concept, and you come into my house and you offer it on a silver platter. You are my brother now anon, I will die for you. Oh and, YEAH: young Ford would be fucking seething, either ways. Hell, if he did know it's him from the future- in that case, all the things he would normally be excited and frantic about- like asking himself if he made it, if he was successful with his projects and inventions, if he got to his chosen university, HOW did he time travel exactly- would be thrown away, second place, and the "HOW ARE YOU DATE MY SISTER- GO BACK TO YOUR DAMN TIMELINE" would take priority with the persistence of a fucking cicada in mating season.
Inspired by shmisky's post, here's my redraw of Stan and Ford from the iconic scene from Princess Mononoke. I just HAD to get this one out of my system, I was obsssesseddd
The modern Gravity Falls fandom is so spoiled 😭😭 ppl get so up in arms and annoyed about fully legal, fairly inoffensive ships but don't know the hell we had to suffer thru back when this shit was airing. Like everyone knows BillDip reigned supreme back then but we've kinda erased the fact that Pinecest was also MASSIVE. Y'all don't know how good we have it nowadays. Just let ppl ship whatever combination of unrelated grown adults they want
Idk. Back in my day we had to walk uphill both ways to school or something
Sure ig..
Have a bunch of Stanleys (w/ a lil' Stanford cameo) 💃
hey. you got any good stancest fic recs? 👀 i trust your opinion over any other stancest blog rn
!!!!!!
Omg, that is so so sweet????? I'm not sure what I did to earn that trust, but thank you!!!
Okay, here are some of my favs, but I'm still making my way through the tag!!
What We Used To Be - By fractured_hourglass (M)
Here's one of the fics I first read when I got into stancest, it broke into my home and tore my heart apart with its angst but it was so GOOD???? SO fucking good, great angst, spectacular writing and characterization. It takes place between stanchurian candidate and last mabelcorn, so don't expect a happy ending in the first part, BUT it's insanely good. The summary is that Stan and Ford are trying to learn to live together again, but they keep fighting, and implications that they were something more...makes everything worse. And when Jimmy Snakes, an old fling of Stan's is back in town, Ford gets more and more irritable until shit hits the fan. There is also a part 2 now that wraps everything up nicely!
Any Way You Want It - By Pandame (E)
An untraditional A/B/O fic that is deliciously hot. Ford comes out of the portal...different.
Miss Missing You - By theywerefireworks (E)
A fic post weirdmageddon where Ford tries to make Stan remember their shared memories together--even if they aren't all that pretty.
Oral Communication - by fishingboatblues (E)
Stan starts leaving notes in code, leaving Ford to decipher them.
Sweet Dreams and Glacier's Rock - by Frondere (E)
The twins take a trip, and there's only one bed 👀
everything you feel is good - by businessboyjared (E)
A delightful pwp where Ford walks in on Stan watching porn. What happens next will shock you.
TV Remotes and Ice-Cream - by wubdub_redux (G)
A really sweet fluffy fic about Stan being awkward about his feelings, but luckily Ford is really dense.
And last, but CERTAINLY not least, a fic I'm still reading right now and it's in progress but is SO good:
many dreams come true, and some have silver linings - by GoodbyeBabylon (E)
This fic is just. Chefs kiss. It's so well done. It's the pining Stancest fic I have yearned for, where they are OLD and PINING and STILL have trouble communicating. It's so so good guys. Highly recommend.
And there you have it!! There are probably some I'm forgetting, and like I said I'm still going through the tag, but please enjoy! :D
