The howling void joins a band. :)
Bill is proud(?)
Part 3 of 7-ish of the epic and not at all tragic love story of Bill Cipher and the howling void, in which Bill continues to be the best most loving boyfriend of all time
as long as you ignore all of the ways that he’s the worst.
Also remember this??
Parts 1 and 2 here, or on ao3 if you prefer.
Bill Cipher and his first girlfriend, with whom things are going SO great and they’re NOT discovering conflicts in their lifestyles, at all!
she’s fine 👍
You’re gonna read this chapter and think “wow! bill’s being so considerate and understanding and supportive! how strange and unexpected!” Hold on to that feeling of unease, my friend.
If you wish to fully appreciate the vibes of the party scene, please play Tom Cardy’s “Transcendental Cha Cha Cha,” put it on loop, open up a second tab/music program, play “Macarena,” also put it on loop, set them to top volume, and suffer.
hey do y'all remember the howling void? This one? From TBOB?
do you wanna read an entire fic about how Bill screwed things up with his first girlfriend? hahaha yeah you do!!
here’s chapter 1 of 7-ish. no content warnings for Bill’s behavior apply… yet; but he’s already waving red flags before he even manages to ask her out.
also available on ao3 if you’d prefer to read it there!!
Chapter 118 of human Bill Cipher eternally grappling with the horrors of having a human body:
this is it, folks.
but more importantly: Ford having the BEST time of his LIFE.
Chapter 117 of human Bill Cipher nearly, but not quite, going a whole chapter without angsting over being human:
Is Bill being a professional manipulator, projecting his own issues on someone else, or genuinely trying to help out a friend? spoilers: it’s all three!
also, at long last: Waddles’s egg hatches.
Chapter 116 of human Bill Cipher actually acting like a good friend for once:
Mabel has reached her final form.
Everyone’s headed to town hall to prepare for the big show: watching Waddles’s egg hatch; and meanwhile, Dipper and Ford are frantic to stop the show before it’s too late.
Chapter 115 of human Bill Cipher getting uncomfortably comfortable with joining in on the Mystery Shack’s shenanigans: if Waddles is gonna lay an egg then by god they’re gonna make a tourist attraction outta it.
And: Stan and Bill try to further convince Mabel that sometimes lying to people for money is okay.
Plus, Dipper and Ford visit the farm. Yaaay.
Chapter 114 of human Bill Cipher somehow managing to befriend a pig faster than he’s winning Ford over:
Waddles lays an egg.
Also: Mabel tries to retroactively prevent Weirdmageddon, and Dipper vivisects Bill’s entire personality with the surgical skill and murderous rage of Jack the Ripper. But mostly Waddles lays an egg.
Ford’s very excited.
Chapter 113 of human Bill Cipher slowly stealing Dipper’s friend group: martial arts, queer club, Bill having an existential crisis, and everyone talks about their moms without mentioning their moms.
And Bill has the kind of epiphany all his therapists would’ve killed to see.
got a new AU for y'all.
AU where Aku turns good. Unwillingly. Without the benefit of forgetting all his past beliefs and actions.
And he handles it great. SO great. He is just, the best at coping with this, and he’s doing fine.
(TW for attempted suicide)
Chapter 112 of human Bill Cipher wondering if he’s human, then who’s been using his powers:
The twins find out what happened to Wendy’s mom. … Kinda.
And the teens play with a corpse.
Nothing weird happens, I prommy
hey what was that
“What are you doing?” Jack asked.
Ashi looked up in surprise.
The last time they’d passed through a town, they’d bought her some basic hygiene supplies: toothbrush, floss, a hairbrush, a portable mirror, a small first aid kit. Ashi had also grabbed a small nail care kit—to Jack’s surprise, considering her blunt and dirty fingernails. But then, he’d thought, maybe that was why she wanted the kit.
Maybe not.
Ashi was sitting in front of the campfire, one hand holding her pocket mirror, the other holding the nail file in her mouth.
She mumbled around the file, “Bru'hing my deeth?”
Not sure whether to worry or laugh, Jack said, “That's… not a toothbrush.”
She pulled out the file. “Okay, I’m filing and then brushing and flossing—but you know what I mean. It’s a file day.”
we’re back baby 😎 with chapter 111 of Bill Cipher pulling the human meat suit equivalent of some guy wearing a horse costume to befriend a herd of wild horses by convincing them he’s one of them:
Tambry’s pool party gets weird.
