    Summary

    “The reason I've been trying to prepare you for Bill's tricks is that Bill tricked me. It's the biggest regret of my life. Bill wasn't always my enemy, Dipper. I used to think he was my friend. Long, long ago.”

    Stanford Pines has embodied Ad Astra Per Aspera to his very core. After 30 years of living as an interdimensional fugitive, on the run from the very being he moved the heavens to have working by his side, he feels the heavy sea otter of his mistakes every second he spends, returned to what was once his home. Now a funhouse mirror version of his past life, Stanford must reconcile all that he has now with all that he has lost. Were he a wiser man, he would have found a way to avoid these mounting hardships, to revel in the stars while he had them, rather than fleeing through the shadows they cast. But wise men never fall in love, so how are they to know?

    Time is running out, the mistakes of his past are swiftly catching up with him.
    This is how the world ends.

     

    A canon divergent sci-fi rom-com inspired by ABBA BABBA.

    Summary

    Bill…didn’t know what would’ve been the appropriate level of vengeance to inflict on the Pines family to feel the sweet satisfaction that he craved.

     

    It’s then somewhat shocking when he sees Stanford on the other side of the plexiglass, downtrodden and beaten down before saying those words that Bill longed to hear for ages and that felt so… wrong and misplaced in the given moment.

     

    “You won, Bill. You won.”

     

    It’s…anticlimactic really.
