Ford....Ford boo...God it hurts. Ford at first treating 'remus' like a anomolie or a pet. Ford feelingvbad aboit the cut from thd snare. Researching him as a anomalie but then the more he js around him the more he starts realizing this anomolie is a normal human.
Ford is real lonely from losing stan.
The way Ford knows he just fell asleep and it was a accident and the family just assumed stan was in the car and it was too late. That when he woke up stan was gone and even when they went back they coukdnt find him.
Hiw it coukd have been easily avoided by a what if and we see the guilt abd frusteration and his struggle to come to terms with it. How he tells himself stan is okay somewhere and they'll find him despite it being years.
His guilt over nkt waking up even though ge was just a kid.
His feeling happy that 'remus' followed him and doing his best to clean him up. Ford making a place for stan to live if they ever find him....him getting to tall to 'rrmus' about stan.
I like hoe fird woukd tell stories to stan in the oast and they'd giggle. I bet stan didn't like the uses those twins fought.
I really like how clever that a man raised by coyotes would be named after obe if the twins who were raised by wolves. And the twin who got the losing hand. Not winning Rome.
I really like Ford getting in the water and helping share a bath. Washing the dirty and mud away. Shampooing his hair. Untangling the fair abd using conditioner. Snipping parts he can't untangle. I loke him thinking what if remus gad a attachment to his hair. And the slight hints. The hair hinting at being curly before. How it's brown. Hiw remus is paler as he gets cleaned. His round brown eyes.
I love the nose bring districtive and it's something stan always liked because it connects him yo tye rest of the family and how it's fun gur a kid yo see daily resemblances. How ford woukd get teased but remembered how Stan was proud of it.
The little moles/burthmark on the neck...I really like how fird remembers the vampire bite line from stan in the past.
Amd duddenly all the boring or fascinating simplevhuman things come together cuz thus really js just a normal human.
The tragedy of the marks on his back implying torture ir hurt...that someone hurt stan...that despite stsn having learned to read and coukd speak and ve clever...this stan can't speak or laugh normally and isn't usi g hands properly....lije trauma is real.
God...he finally found stan but ford is in denial because that woukd mean Stan has been tortured hurt and alone all this tome and nobody gas trued to help him.
I wonder what drew stan to gravity falls...with the weirdness theroy.
Ford's gu7lt and horror and sadness because this is 200 percent a person and not just some anomolie or dog and irs his person.
Don't scare him ford! Ford knowing in his gut its stanley but unable to cope sp telling himsekf that's nit stan abd that he can prove it to stop his panic.
Stan finally got a bath huh.
Heartbreaking.
I wonder if ford will tell his parents or if he'll make sure for a while.
Not a baby raised from birth but the tradfedy ir Domaine who got traumatized abd adapted into this.
I wonder if ge coukd go into his mindscape later.... If ge trued to invoke some memories?
God...and we know ford felt a familar kinship with him...does stan feel the sane? Does he recognizes its ford? Or going off vibe I wonder.
God stan deserves a great big hug. Ford js going to be crying all the tears.
dude this is such a cool comment to receive! thank you so much for writing this out and sharing it - its awesome to see someone picking up on all the stuff i was putting down, especially when a lot of that stuff i hadn’t seem anyone else comment on yet, on ao3 or tumblr!
i’ve read this comment over and over dude. i think i can say that pretty much everything you’ve inferred is right! which is! super cool!
very glad you noticed the stuff with stan’s scars especially. like, he was five when ford and their parents lost him, but he was fully capable of walking and talking at that point… and now can’t/ doesn’t do that anymore… i wonder why that is? >:)
oh ford is going to have. such a Time with all of this once he puts it all together- augh, i have to stop myself! i don’t want to spoil anything
i can’t spoil anything, but yes; stan deserves a big hug after all this, and ford is def going to have Emotions about everything when he stops being full Denial Mode. poor guy needs a coping mechanism and he’s chosen avoidance and denial - not good for him, not good at all!
