Bailey casually portaling away lol ok I wanna go back to drawing the happy family now 😂 truthfully I don’t have many ideas for this sister au but yeah they’re not having a good time
From the zine
so how about that comic we all know and love by @stump-not-found
I'm curious about something, do the girls have their periods or an Euclidean adjacent thing? How did Ford and Bill react to that?
Bill probably goes through some sort of heat cycle/period for “male” Euclideans.
I feel like Bailey would be a “male” Euclidean like Bill, eventually identifying as non-binary.
I was thinking Billie would be more like a “female” Euclidean!
For the boys idk yet lmao
I know I kinda started off this AU like really strict “girls and boys” but I think hybrids might actually present/identify differently!
Did Ford and Bill come up with the names together did Bill say to any of them “We’re naming them this, end of story.”
Let’s be honest, Billie was probably a huge ego boost of a name until he realized “Oh Axolotl, I gave her my mom’s nickname for me”
I think as soon as Bill saw Billie w one eye he immediately named her after himself lmaooo (he hadn’t even seen her shape form yet haha) and then Ford came up w a name that matched 😆
For the boys, Bill and Ford allowed the girls to pick names! The girls came up with the idea to name the boys after Sun/moon(night) themes!
Did Bill experience post-partum depression with any of his babies? How did Ford and Bill handle it?
This got a bit long but im in the yapping mood
Yes, with the girls specifically. I've talked about this before but the combination of body horror, unresolved trauma, normal parenthood anxiety, and just the overall transformative nature of pregnancy was ROUGH for Bill.
I think at first Bill was hesitant to even show his true shape form to the girls, afraid to show any part of himself (a monster, an evil being with a lot of blood on his hands). He was consumed by the fear that he would inevitably hurt them, corrupt them just by being their mother.
When the girls transformed into shapes for the first time, Bill freaked out, secretly he had hoped they'd be fully human, scared to confront another Euclidean and remember the home he destroyed.
Bailey has struggled with her vision since birth. When she was very young Bill almost blinded her. Bailey was overwhelmed by her powers. Her mind struggling to process her vision, causing unending tears and fear. Thankfully Ford was around.. but it wouldn't be the last time Bill was confronted with these thoughts.
Billie would sometimes accidentally hurt herself with her powers, her hybrid body struggling to accommodate them. It killed Bill to watch his children suffer because of him. Because of him, his daughters couldn't live a normal life. They were burdened by his existence.
Although Ford was also in the trenches dealing with 2 powerful hybrid babies, he did his best to support Bill and address his condition. Ford had his own traumas/problems that surfaced during all this but they worked through it with the support of their family. Stanley was a HUGE help. Cousins Mabel and Dipper always down to babysit as well!
does bill ever think about the henchmaniacs and the evil life he left behind when he went to be with ford?
Yes, he does! After all, his time with Ford and their kids is a tiny point in the VERY long life Bill has lived. To Bill, a human lifetime is nothing, just a blink of time. He gave up centuries worth of planning, scheming, deals, and lots of evil deeds to love a mortal lmaoo I think sometimes it all feels really surreal to Bill lol but he would 100% destroy Euclydia all over again for his children.
I have a small question
Were there any conflicts on the part of the girls after the birth of the boys? Did they feel that they were loved less? And if a couple more children appear, will the boys be jealous?
Bill and Ford would give the girls helpful tasks like fetching supplies, helping prepare formula, reading stories, etc to involve them in small ways in caring for the baby boys! This helped to create a bond between the siblings :)
Ok well now I’m curious on the process on how Ford bagged the absolute baddie that is Bill
LMAOOO when they met Stanford was a young, handsome, autistic nerd that kissed the ground Bill walked on.. he Gomezed his way into Bill's heart XDD
but seriously, I think Ford was the only being to ever actually enchant Bill, actually hold his attention and make Bill WANT to stick around for Ford's short and "insignificant" human existence at the cost of centuries of work. The thought of Ford turning to dust making Bill ACHE and instead of pushing Ford away, destroying everything in his path, in this dimension he chooses to hold onto Ford tightly. Billions of years bringing him to this spec of a moment in the grand scheme of the universe.
Hi, I’m new here and I just went through basically almost your entire blog LMFAOAO
I have a couple questions, it’s that’s ok!🩷
1. Is Bill,, trans? Or does he have female reproductive organs? He seems to present as mostly male (although I did read he finds gender norms confusing!)
2. If the original timeline never happened, then does the Mystery Shack exist? What about the other characters, like Melody and Soos?
3. Similar to my question above, if Bill abandoned the portal for its original purpose and chose Stanford over his previous life, what did he do/tell his henchmaniacs? Did he ever run into them again when traveling the multiverse with Stanford?
4. Does Bill share and/or explain his peoples culture to his family?
5. Kind of similar to 4, how does Bill feel about the Axolotl in this AU?
I find your AU very adorable and I love the way you’ve developed these characters!!🩷
Hi! welcome LMAO thank you sm for your sweet message! <3 I LOVE to yap about my AU im sorry for all the text!!
- My Bill chose female anatomy for his human form bc it was the closest to his Euclidean anatomy! I based that on the headcanons that "male" shapes carry the babies/Euclydia has a billion genders lol I like the idea that Bill's true gender/sex doesn't have a direct translation in human terms so he kinda just does whatever feels right.
- I haven't thought about specific stuff like that LMAO I just wanted to make Bill Cipher a mom XDD but I think maybe Stanley could have still created the Mystery Shack while BillFord adventured in the multiverse...taking Ford by surprise when they returned lol I'd love to still have characters like Soos around! I gotta think through a general timeline...
- He disbanded their group and the henchmaniacs either stayed in Ford's dimension to chill (like the Homeworld gems in Steven Universe) or found their own path/home in a different dimension!
- Yes! Bill passes on as much knowledge of his culture/dimension as possible, including language to his children! It wasn't easy at first... I think part of Bill wanted to hide it because it was too painful.
- The Axolotl visits Bill in dreams sometimes but there isn't much reason to check in on this version of Bill haha He is much softer, less evil and utterly devoted to his family <3
