    Summary

    “I will make you understand and experience,” Evelyn’s voice echoed inside of his skull, “every moment of pain and suffering you have ever caused. You will feel every death that has ever stained your filthy hands, and you will know every ounce of grief that you have left behind.”

    For the first time since he could remember, watching Evelyn’s form slowly swallowed and obscured by the growing mob of anguished souls, did Belos feel truly and wholly afraid. He screamed, terror gripping him in a way he’d never felt before, knowing that not even death could save him from this fate.

    -

    As a disclaimer, I in no way condone or excuse any of this man’s actions or behaviours. He doesn’t really deserve a redemption (especially in canon), but I thought it would be interesting to see what forcing him to feel remorse would actually do. Really get him to experience the consequences of his actions, you know?

    Summary

    The metal plate in Ford's head shielded his mind enough to prevent Bill Cipher from gaining access. And as an added side effect, it also provided enough shielding to protect his mind from the effects of Fiddleford's memory gun.

    It did not, however, provide perfect protection against his forgotten prototype. Which was more powerful, but far less precise. Like comparing a scalpel to a chainsaw.

    The metal plate provided enough protection that Ford only lost his most recent memories. And both Stanley and Fiddleford had already proven that it was possible to retrieve those memories with some work. There was no reason to be overly upset about a mere accident.

    But since his last memories were of him and his brother at sea a few months after Weirdmageddon, Ford was left dealing with several changes. Dipper and Mabel were noticeably older. The Mystery Shack had expanded. And there was someone that should have been dead and gone that his family were far too casual and comfortable having around.

    Summary

    When you applied to work at the Superstar Daycare, you expected fun, nostalgia, and the occasional fussy kid.

    What you didn't expect was the Daycare Attendant, a boisterous animatronic stationed to work at the daycare 24/7. You especially didn't expect to grow attached.

    So when information about the attendant doesn't quite line up— stories that contradict each other, website URLs that are broken— you don't hesitate to stick your nose where it may or may not belong.

    You've always been quick to get invested like that.

    You've always been quick to love.
