I accidentally posted my unfinished final draft of the first chapter of my fanfic 😭💀I changed it to a private post and am going to have to continue editing it this way now. I don't know how that happened. I had it listed as a draft. Better than accidentally deleting it, I guess

I actually have an hourglass figure with curvy hips, but chances are you would never realize because most of the clothes I wear are slightly on the larger side. I wouldn't call them baggy clothing, but they aren't tight either 🤷‍♀️

reblog and put in the tags a physical feature about yourself that might change your mutuals visual idea of you

So, as I've stated in my last post, I've began to write my final draft for the first chapter of my AU's fanfic. However, I added a "(?)" because I figured, knowing myself, there would most likely be a couple of things I would remove to add in. And I was correct. There was a portion I initially liked, but realized seemed so random in the chapter, so I removed it. However, I didn't just want to delete it altogether, so I'm posting it here. Enjoy!

TRIGGER WARNING: Panic Attack

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Out-of-Context)

Cut Content From My Fic:

When he first entered the elevator, he was extremely confident and optimistic about how his first impression would be recieved. Now that his thoughts had been given some time to simmer from the long ride, he couldn't help his worries piling up at the front of his mind. What if he messed up? What if he said something wrong and offended everyone there and he had no genius to blanket his fall, since intellect wasn't vital the acting industry? Or, furthermore, what if it turns out he's not at all the good actor Stan assured him he was and made an utter fool out of himself? He could just picture the headline: "Dr. Ford — Brilliant Scientist Turned Actor Laughingstock."

Oh, Moses, what was he thinking! He had to leave this elevator this instant, one way or another.

His fingers resumed the activity of tapping the shiny, metallic railing attached to and surrounding the glossy walls of the elevator — this time at a much rapid pace than before. (He hadn't even realized he had stopped.)

Tappity-tappity-tap.

His brown eyes scanned through the assortment of buttons, searching for something that would allow him to pause or stop the electrical contraction. It didn't matter what it did as long as it would save him from future humiliation.

Tappity-tappity-tappity-tap!

He couldn't go through with this. Moses, for someone so smart he was so stupid. Why did he ever think this was a good idea?

TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAP!

Why did he decide to go through with this? Why did he decide to go through this? Whydidhedecidetogothroughwiththis? WHYDIDHEDECIDETOGOTHROUGHWITHTHIS?

TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY-TAPPITY—!

...

His entire body was frozen as still as a statue, yet it felt as if he was shaking and moving so much internally.

Fun fact about me: For some reason, I have a tendency to write my protagonists having mental breakdowns in the first chapter of my fics (original and fanfiction alike). Usually, it doesn't feel random and fits in quite well, since those first chapters also tend to be very dramatic and impactful on my protagonist's emotional state. Here, it doesn't work. Stan has already assured him he'll do fine. Sure, he still can worry and be anxious about his reception to everyone (I know I would *cough cough* anxiety disorder *cough cough*), but it doesn't feel too in character for Ford, especially at the moment. So, I'm deleting the scene.

I don't want to reveal too much about my first chapter before it's officially finished and published, but I still want to share some of it. So, I screenshotted the part of it before the "Keep Reading" line — which is, admittedly, just the gist, but it's something.

I finally ended up starting to write my final(?) draft on Tumblr yesterday. FYI, I spent the time beforehand writing it on google docs and plotting out the chapter (and others to follow) in notes

Yeah, that would've been more lore-accurate, but Markiplier didn't know that when he originally said the meme 🤷‍♀️

Is that the bookmark of '87-

Guess we were on the same brain wave then, lol. (I love your art, btw)

I just realized that I set the amount of voting time for my poll to be a day instead of 1 week 💀 I swore I clicked on the week option, but I guess not.

So, I know that I already a poll on deciding my fanfic's name, but it feels cheap for me to name my fanfic based off of my AU and, at the time, I didn't have any more name ideas. Now I do. I'll still list "Actor Falls" as an option in case people enjoy it the most out of all of them.

I would greatly appreciate you taking the time to place a vote for my poll.

Okay, I knew I was going to get back round to asking more questions.

To all of the characters, if you had the ability to play any other character in the show, who would you want to play and why? It's similar to my last question, but I guess I just have a theme of questioning.

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Honestly, I don't know if any of the other characters are worthy of being played by me and if I'm worthy of playing them, but I'll still humor you and answer your question. Out of all of them (besides Pacifica, obviously), I would choose Wendy. Surprised? Maybe you are, maybe you aren't. I don't care either way.

The reason I didn't choose Mabel is that while she's my favorite character, I don't think I would be a good fit for her. Yeah, I know. "What? Patricia being honest and modest for once?" Don't get used to it. I still know my greatness and won't tone it down for anyone. Switching back to the subject — I don't radiate any of the positive energy needed to capture her personality. Which is why I believe I would be a better fit for Wendy. She's calm and relaxed, so I wouldn't have to muster up any terribly strong emotions for my performance as her. I could just be...carefree. No overally dramatic acting, no fake persona. Nothing that screams extra required. She can also have a lot of bite and snark from time to time, not caring what those in charge think. She's a rebellious spirit, which could be really fun to play. What I would give to be able to break free and truly be myself for once.

You're welcome,

Patricia

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

If I were able to play someone else, I would probably choose... Hmm... Oh! Candy and Grenda! They were super cute and fun in the show, I'd love to be them. Also, Grenda has a lizard! Do you hear me people? A LIZARD!! Aren't they the cutest things? No offense, Waddles, you're still adorable and my favorite animal.

Best wishes,

Mabel <3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

That's...actually a really cool question. And, to answer it, a character I would like to play — if I could — out of the entire cast would probably be Stanford. He's the only other character besides Dipper who has a deep interest in the supernatural. He's passionate about it and his character's gimmick revolves around his love for the weird and peculiar. He kinda reminds me of myself in that way. I love horror not only because of how it's dark and eerie, but also because how it delves into different ideas about the paranormal — the strange and mysterious. I love it just like he does.

Sincerely,

Mason

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

You're asking me who I'd rather be if I could be anyone else? Well, I would have to say that, out of everyone, I would wanna be Dipper. He's a neat kid with a good brain and knack for solving mysteries — a fun character to play!

Best regards,

Deon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Huh. That's an interesting question. I like it! Though, it definitely takes some thought and I left most of my brain behind at school. Now, I'm like some mindless, slow zombie. Rawww (or whatever noises zombies typically make; I don't study their text language)! Haha!

Don't worry, though — this zombie is still going to answer your fanmail! Speaking of which, I would wanna be...hmmm...Mabel! Yeah, I'd wanna play her. She seems cool as in she's fun, has a good sense of humor, and owns a pig. You DON'T understand just how much the pig point matters to me.

Wilma

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

That's a seriously good question, dude! I approve and will take my solemn duty to answer it very seriously. (That wasn't too many "seriously"s, was it?) Out of all of the characters from the show, I would want to play Melody. She's extremely sweet and nice and has excellent opinions on the important topic of lunch meat. All very good stuff to me in a person and character.

Cheers,

Alza

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

In all honesty, there is no one who I'd rather be than the fellow I'm already playing. Not to say that none of the other characters are interesting — they all have their own merits — it's just that none of them call out to me like Fiddleford did. It's probably the fact that he reminds me the most of myself out of all of the characters (plays a banjo, is typically disregarded by his peers, and comes from the South) that I feel so comfortable and at home playing him. It's like how you might be drawn to the people you find most relatable — the similarities make you feel like you belong there, that there's nothing wrong about your presence. Even if you don't quite fit in with everyone else, it's okay because you have someone there who's like you. The other characters don't give me that feeling and I don't know if I would click with them as much in terms of acting.

Respectfully,

Hadron

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

I know that you've been waiting for my response to your question and I'll justify the unbelievable amount of time you spent with an answer. What other character would I want to play? That is the question. Would I want to be kind and loving Mabel, anxious and nerdy Dipper, greedy and plotting Stanley, spirited and chill Wendy, some six-fingered nerd, or literally any of the other hundreds of characters? (Seriously, there's a lot.) Well, the answer is simple and quite obvious. I mean, come on. Who could I possibly rather be other than GIFfany? She's a yandre who's willing to kill just to ensure her one love belongs to her and only her, which would be thrilling to play. She's cunning and manipulative, and hides who she truly is behind a mask of a sweet and sensitive digital girlfriend; her persona the dangling lure of an anglerfish. Plus, I just enjoy acting as villains. Hopefully that doesn't say anything about me, haha!

Yours,

William

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Let's see — who would I want to be out of the endless cast of characters? Oh no, it's such a hard decision. I can't decide, I think I'm just going to go with — yeah, I'll quit messing around. I would want to play Tad Strange.

...

What? You want me to explain why? Ugh, people these days. They think they're so entitled to knowing everything. Well, fine. I'll humor you. I chose him because I would get paid a lot of money for doing basically nothing! It would be an easy job with an excellent pay.

Goodbye,

Stan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

If I was granted the virtue of the ability of being able to play any other character, I would — in the end — come to the conclusion of finding Agent Powers to be the most desirable role. The idea of playing the governmental official who has a part in the reveal of the portal is one that brings me utmost delight. However, I still would like to note that I prefer the character I was selected to act as best.

Cordially,

Dr. Ford

Alright, so story time: I intend on becoming an author my career. I love writing and just the endless creativity that comes with crafting fictional stories. And my blog is meant to be a way that I can share my writings with the world. So, obviously, I wanted to create a user name that was writing-themed. First, I tried out the user "writing-dreams" because all of my fics start out as daydreams essentially; except, instead of being mentally projected as an image, it's just sentences. Also, being a writer is — as I previously stated — my dream job, so it fit well.

However, unfortunately for me, it was taken. After that, I was kind of stumped because I suck at naming things. Then I remembered this random post that went like this: "I wish people would romanticize gaming like how they romanticize reading. People talk about spending an entire day in solitude, reading a book, and that's perfectly acceptable. Encouraged even! But, when I tell people about how I spend an entire day playing video games, all of sudden it's 'unhealthy' and I need to 'take a break and go touch grass.' It's not fair. They should romanticize gaming the same way!" And I was struck with the idea of making my username "romanticizing-writing" due to my passion for writing and random remembrance of that post.

*clears throat*

I mean, don't mind me. I'll just be obsessing over that tidbit of learned information to myself in the corner like Dipper over the journals.

When it comes to regular tabs, I usually only have one open (Netflix) because I close out all of my other tabs when I'm done using them, since having too many takes up storage space and slows down my device. It's also just, in general, too chaotic and messy for me, so I only keep open that one tab.

For Samsung Internet, I have two tabs: The Monster High Dolls website (dolls are one of my special interests) and an analysis essay on the character writing of a season of PreCure. I love analysis essays.

Doof: "You see Perry The Platypus, about a few weeks ago I entered The Tumblr Sexyman Showdown. It's a contest for only the sexiest of men-- now now, Perry the Platypus, before you roll your eyes at me, it's not the conventional kind of sexy, no, no! It's the pathetic, the silly, the unconventional! Only for the acquired tastes. Like me~!! So I joined in, and you wouldn't believe it! I plowed through the competition! Bracket after bracket, I dominated the votes. That is, until the final round... when I was put up against Stanley Pines of someplace called 'Gravity Falls'-- for some reason, even though he claimed to come from a place called Gravity Falls and I come from the Tri-State Area, the competition listed me to come from someplace called 'Phineas and Ferb', and I have no idea where that is or who those people are--I was kicked to the curb! He won by a landslide! Well, not literally though, that's a metaphor--that's how Bill Cipher won against Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians, and I KNOW that place doesn't exist--b-but anyway, Stanley won and I only got second. And it doesn't make any sense! Sure, Stanley is similar to what the true Sexyman is, but he's not the greatest! For one thing, he's not that pathetic--jeez, if anyone is the most pathetic here, it's me! He's not that tragic-backstory-able, or anything, he--and worse yet, he's HOT! I mean, he's not that much of an acquired taste! Sure, he's older, but that's it!! Clearly, the people are biased! Which is why I made...THIS!"

Doof: "BEHOLD! THE UNHANDSOME-INATOR!!!!"

Doof: "With this, I can make anyone ugly--so ugly that their ugliness is JUUUST too ugly to be a Tumblr Sexyman! But too handsome to be truly ugly...and I can also tweak it to make myself just a little more handsome, hehe! With this, I will make the ENTIRE TRI-STATE AREA Sexyman ugly, and shoot myself so I will be the most acquired-taste-handsome out of all of them, winning the love of all of the TRI-STATE AREA, AND ENACTING MY REVENGE AGAINST THE TUMBLR SEXYMAN CONTEST!!!"

Doof: "--Or wait, come to think of it, this isn't really revenge, I mean, the contest's over and it won't come back until next year so this scheme prooobably should've been postponed until then... not to mention this inator isn't exactly that tweaked, it's a rushed job has some...ahaha...side effects...unless I CRANK UP THE RANGE OF THE INATOR!"

Doof: "Yes, Perry The Platypus, I will become the most tumblr-sexyman handsome by proxy in all of the tri-state area AND GRAVITY FALLS, OREGON!!!"

| Meanwhile In Gravity Falls |

*Stan, reading the paper, suddenly looks up.*

Stan: "Something just happened."

*beat*

Stan: "...Eh. Who cares. Worse has happened in this town. It's probably the heebie jeebies from that German guy from a couple days ago, eugh."

Stan: "Worth it for the prize money, though. I'm still the sexiest man on all of Tumblr! Ahaha!"

*beat*

Stan, still grinning: "...whatever that is."

*A beat. Then the door to the Mystery Shack slams open. It's Ford.*

Ford: "Stanley! I'm back!"

Stanley: "Hey, sixer. Back from another one of your little adventures?"

Ford: "I suppose you could call it that! Ever been to the tri-state area? There are hundreds of anomalies there! Did you know that all the platypuses are teal there?"

Stanley: "Yeah, yeah...well, make sure to tell me later. I'm reading the paper."

Ford: "Well, don't get too absorbed. We're going to Italy tomorrow, remember? We're visiting the Vatican! Lots of great things to explore there! We might even see the pope!"

Time to start writing on my fanfic for my "Actor Falls" AU! Since, I'm terrible at titles, though, I would appreciate any feedback possible.

—Meet the Cast!—

Part Five: The Friend and Foe

Wilma:

Wilma is an environmental activist who does acting for a side job in order to make the money needed to be able to thrive in stability and fuel her organization "Wilma's Wilderness Protection Services," or "WWPS" for short. One of the most recent roles she took on within the acting industry was "Wendy Corduroy" from the beloved Disney series, "Gravity Falls". She claimed to have been attracted to the chill yet strong-willed nature of the character and said the traits reminded her of herself.

She's made a strong impact on certain aspects of the studio — suggesting the addition of recycling bins and utilization of recycled paper for scripts instead. She's also been seen, from time to time, picking up the litter occasionally covering the surrounding area of the building's outside. She deeply believes in her cause and takes every opportunity to attempt to take better care of the Earth.

"I feel like she has definitely affected all of us — in a good way, I mean. Not that I littered or treated our planet badly, but I never really helped out. I didn't know I could, to be honest. It felt like nothing I could do would make a difference. But, Wilma? She changed that attitude. She taught us little tips here and there, and recommended things we could do to help out if we ever felt like it. Not too much overwhelm us or make us feel like we weren't doing much before — like some people might do — but just enough to be encouraging and remind us that we could. That it was possible and we had a choice; a say in how much humanity affected nature. It's an empowering belief that she brought upon us," Melanie (actor of "Melody") expressed about her fellow actress.

Wilma is closest with Mabel and Alzamirano due to them having similar activities and firm opinions. When hanging out with the younger girl, the conversation usually revolves around their shared care for nature and its wildlife. When she's around Alza, meanwhile, they typically talk about how managing both of their associations is going and how they created them out of the common desire for the world's betterment.

William:

William is THE celebrity actor cast with playing the role of "Bill Cipher" in the show "Gravity Falls". He's one of the big names and is the most famous toon working on set for the series. He's been acting since seemingly forever (since he was ten years old) and is one of the most well known actors out there, period. He didn't have much competition when it came to auditioning for the role — since not too many shape toons exist in the world — and the little he had quickly left after finding out who they were up against.

William has been said to have a flamboyant and flashy personality. He's bold and will do whatever it takes to determine that he stands out from the crowd. He lives for the attention and makes that fact known. As a result, he sometimes comes across as fake, shallow, and even egotistical to people; finding him off-putting. Despite this, he's still extremely popular with public. He's the type of person who you either hate or love full-heartedly with little room for an in-between opinion.

While seemingly unapproachable on the surface, he's more than willing to converse, help, or interact with others — even if they're below him fame-wise. He's capable of being a very down-to-earth triangle who's sensitive and caring. Though, this piece of information is not that well known due to how he acts when near the spotlight. However, that's not the only reason. He has been making a noticable decision to attempt to appear less vulnerable and keep up his persona after the creation of a highly gossiped rumor. In the case you've been living under a rock (I apologize for any accidental offense caused to you, Patrick Star), I'll briefly explain what I'm referring to:

William has been theorized to have been close in some sort of proximity to famous scientist, Dr. Ford (actor of "Stanford Pines").

While I'm legally obligated reiterate that the connection between the duo is pure speculation, I'm more than willing to delve into why this has become a common belief. For starters, upon their first meeting, Ford was stated to have been shocked to realize William was also part of the cast in the way someone is suprised to see someone they know at the local grocery store.

"It was strangest thing I had seen. Mr. Ford was walking around, saying 'hi' to people, and then when he saw Mr. William he just...stopped. Stopped being able to do just about everything. He stopped being able to function properly, stopped knowing how to speak, stopped smiling — you get the gist. Oh! And then there was his eyes. They widened and became distant, as if he seen a ghost. Though, Bill does float like one. But, that's not the point. The point is: It was like he knew him," Deon (actor of "Gideon Gleeful") recited from memory about the two.

Furthermore, while they do seem avoid each other at every possible opportunity, their eyes have been caught to occasionally drift over to the other's. Their expressions changing to one of reminiscence as they (POTENTIALLY! This is theorizing, I don't want to be sued for any of this being mistaken for fact) let their minds wander to the ghosts of their pasts.

Again, none of this should be taken as objective truth. Though there is evidence to support this claim, they haven't confirmed any of the suspicion and instead denied it. Or avoided it like people avoid secrets they don't wish to speak about publicly. Please take all of this with a grain of salt. I was lucky enough to be hired to write these articles for the Disney company, since the show is so popular — I don't want to be sued for it.

Question for the blog head, Minerva!

Will your actor falls au eventually be on ao3? I'm very intrigued by it, but unsure if the story will be playing out in tumblr asks or in a fanfic. (The roger rabbit setting? Toon x human drama and secret exes likely pining? Stan being a flirt to Hadron? Stan and Ford still brothers? Gideon's actor being nice?) Sign me up to read it because it sounds fascinating!

So, it most likely won't be on ao3 because my personal account is going to also be the one I use for the Catholic school I'm going to be attending come next year. However, I WILL be turning it absolutely into a fanfic. I don't know if you read the last part of my latest ask, but once I finish writing the final part of my "Meet the Cast!" series, I'm going to start writing my fanfic for the AU and post it to Tumblr. I have a several ideas for the AU I fully plan on turning into a reality via storytelling. I'll still be doing the letter, rp-style asks alongside the fanfic because I find them fun to write. I hope that you don't mind sticking around even though the fanfic will be limited to Tumblr.

Thank you for your ask! 💖

dear cast, what was your hardest episode to act for (if one applies)?

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

I don't understand why you would want to know (why are people obsessed with seeing me vulnerable), but I suppose I'll entertain my fans. You better appreciate it! The things I'll do for my parent's public image.

I would have to say that the most difficult episode for me to act in was the "Northwest Mansion Mystery" episode. Why? Well, there's multiple reasons behind it, for your information. First of all, Mason is a jerk. ... Okay, fine, maybe that was a bit of an overstatement. I'll rephrase — he can be an annoying smart aleck when he wants to. And, for some reason that only he himself will ever know, he decided to be one for the episode. Constantly. So much so that some scenes from the episode weren't planned and instead some of those "times when actors weren't acting" thing. So what if I maybe fired some insults back? Horror is dumb. It's a scientifically proven fact. Besides, he knows that I'm a natural blonde! Yet, he keeps on making comments about how I'm not. Ugh. He's lucky that I don't mind wasting my time with him with how he acts.

Secondly, the episode hit a bit too...personal for me. I may or may not have had a few mental breakdowns that were only calmed down by Mason and the sense of security he gives me, but there's no proof of that. Like, at all. So, don't go poking your nose around any rumors, gossip, or cut takes. Or else I'll sue you. I'm not joking. I'm sure Mr. Stan would be more than willing to be my lawyer for a cut of the profit.

You're Welcome,

Patricia

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

This was a good question! Here — have a sticker for the amazing idea! ^^

Take it! It's a gift between you and me. Anyway— I would have to say that the episode "Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future" was the most difficult for me to act. I'm new at acting, so I didn't know how to make myself emotional or cry at will. Because of this, the ending ended up, admittedly, taking a while to get done. But, everyone was really nice about it! Mr. Stan even gave me some private, one-on-one lessons to help for the scene. It was SO fun. I learned a lot from him! He's the best! I should probably give him a thank-you sticker...

Best wishes,

Mabel <3

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

I don't usually have much trouble when it comes to acting due to my lengthy experience in the film industry. But, I would have to say that the hardest episode to act for was "Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future." Usually, I'm able to detach myself from the other cast members and get deep into the role, but the idea of saying something that was supposed to break Mabel's (the character's) heart when she acted so similar to, well, the actor her was just...

...

It — It took a little longer than it normally would have to get into character for the scene. I don't want to talk about it anymore, nor do I have to. Please don't be like other "fans" and choose to respect my privacy. We're not just people acting for your entertainment — we're real human beings, just like you. I shouldn't have to state that.

Sincerely,

Mason

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

In all honesty, the answer came to me right away — like a dream! Except it's not a dream, since it's the hardest episode I found to act for, heh... Uh, proceeding on, the episode I had the worst time acting for was "The Hand That Rocks the Mabel". Funny, considering that it was my (character's) debut episode, isn't it? It was difficult for me for two reasons. One, it was my first ever time acting with a main role, so I put a teensy bit of pressure onto myself to be perfect. Not too much, but still some. And, two, I — from time to time — got a bit weirded out from the lines and actions I had to act out. Gideon's a lil' creep. I knew this already, of course, but I still got slightly uncomfortable when I finally had to act like one. It's different knowing something about a character beforehand than having it actually play out in front of your eyes. 'Specially if you're the one playing it out. But, I digress.

Best regards,

Deon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

Thank you for question. I hope that my answer doesn't disappoint, but I can't really think of an episode I had the hardest time acting for, dude (neutral). Like, I had a pretty chill time acting for all of them. Sure, I may have had a little bit of a trouble once in while, but nothing that really stands out. Y'know what I mean? Kinda like when you get all of your dream presents and you're asked to pick a worst one out of all of them. You can't really decide — you feel the same about all of them, but in a positive way. Uh, so yeah. Still, thanks for asking!

Cheers,

Alza (or "Alzamirano" for formality?? Not entirely sure on how to do this, dude...)

P.S. should I have maybe written that extra bit as a "P.S."?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

I took the moment to think deeply about the question before writing my reply, and I can confirm that I indeed have one! For me personally, I reckon that the episode I had the hardest time acting for was the "Gideon Rises" one. I will be the first one to admit that I'm a huge klutz. Whenever we had to shoot that one scene where I was building Gideon his ginormous robot, I would keep slipping, or dropping stuff, or just straight messing up. We had to do...what? Ten retakes? I don't remember the exact amount. Not that I've developed memory problems like my character, heh. Remembering a specific number just wasn't my top priority.

Respectfully,

Hadron

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

Ooh~! Interesting question. You don't have the intention of stirring up drama, do you? Ah, I'm just messing with you. Haha! Of course you do! Who doesn't? That's why there's an entire genre for it: People crave tragedy and melodrama. Why, it's a fact about society at this point. Why else do you think there are so many angsty fanfictions on WattPad and Ao3? Because people enjoy watching other people suffer!

Oh, and just to clarify, I'm not one of those people. Cross my heart and hope to die, stick a cupcake in my eye (Pinkie Pie, no one could understand your greatness). Sure, I thrive in the chaos and perhaps may cause some of it from time to time, but when it comes down to the serious stuff? Like bad things happening to real people? I'm not going to stand by and make it my own form of entertainment like everyone else.

...

Oh, that got depressing quick, didn't it? My apologies I'mnottrulysorry! Anywho, back to the reason why I'm writing this whole thing — the hardest episode for me to act for? Well, kid, I'll tell ya. It would have to be "Weirdmaggedon 3: Take Back the Falls". That episode was the main time I struggled out of all of the times I acted for the series. And let me tell you, it was smooth sailing with very little sea monsters threatening the peace when working on the show.

To be more specific, the scene in the Fearamid's Penthouse with Ford was the one I had a difficult time with. Trust me, there's nothing I like more than a challenge, though! Some technical difficulties were overdue after such easy workload and I was prepared for them. Totally. 100%! You better not doubt any of what I'm saying because it's all very much true and if you do you're stupid (jk, I'm sure you're smart if you rightfully have interest in people like me). There definitely was no extra tension between the two of us, and I definitely did not want to bolt the room the moment we were forced to stay onto the same set together. And I definitely did not think back to those days when we met each other in secret. Nor did I remember the twinkle in his brown eyes when he looked at me like I was worth something, stirring up feelings within my heart. I especially did not think of how much I missed him, of how much I regretted our (my) decision to part ways.

Aside from that, everything was a breeze! Acting was — what's the phrase? Oh, yes! Easy peasy lemon squeezy! After all, an actor as talented as moi barely ever has a hard time with the art he perfected.

Yours,

William

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

Ha! You wanna know the episode I had the hardest time acting? You wish. Sure, the question itself may come from innocent motives, but one thing I learned is that if you give the public an inch, they'll take a mile. I reveal what episode was the most difficult for me and why and the information will be spread all across the internet — like a weed growing in a garden! Then, it'll become one big game of telephone where the information gets abridged and summarized and translated to the point where it's phrased entirely differently with some people's personal thoughts added to the mix as if I spoke them aloud. After that, either it's used to turn me into some meme — damaging my reputation and self-worth, but don't tell Ford that — or it'll be used to fuel some controversy or type of slander that only those type of people are capable of coming up with. So, sorry, but I ain't got anything for ya. Try again next time.

Goodbye,

Stan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Pickledoesthetumbling,

I compliment you for both your curiosity and decision to take matters into your own hands in order to discover some answers for yourself. Not many people have the confidence to inquire with me about such a subject (though I am absent of any clue why), so I shall reward you for your boldness with an answer.

After thoroughly pondering my many experiences acting for scenes from the show, I have come to a firm and definite conclusion. I can say with absolute certainly that the episode I had the most difficult time acting for was "Weirdmaggedon 3: Take Back the Falls" due to the existence of the Penthouse scene between William and I. I'm sorry to disappoint you in such a manner, but I refuse to give an explanation as for why. It's a personal matter that brings me much discomfort every time my mind thinks of it.

Thank you for your understanding.

Cordially,

Dr. Ford

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(I'm sorry that this took so long. I ended up being very busy today. I'm planning on eventually writing a fanfic for this AU once I get to the final part of the "Meet the Cast!" series and one of the chapters delves into how William and Ford felt acting out that one scene. Thank you so much for the ask!)

Okay, okay. I thought it would take me longer to think of a question because I'm terrible at asking questions but;

To all of the characters in the actor au; who is their favourite character? Why?

Dear Majorinfanfiction,

You want to know my favorite character? I could take a while and pretend that they're all as a great as each other, but I'll save you the time. In truth — and this is an objective fact, no matter what Mason may say about it — the best character is Mabel. You don't see many characters like her so full of heart and fun that don't come off as annoying in media. People can be soooo depressing nowadays. The world needs a little sunshine. Ugh, that was so corny. Mabel (the actor, not the character) is rubbing off on me.

You're welcome,

Patricia

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Hiiiii!!!!!! Thank you SO much for the question! I love answering them. Anyways— My favorite character? Umm, this is a difficult one. They're all so amazing in their own way, y'know? If I had to pick only one, I think I would maybe choose Waddles. Yeah, sorry, I may be a bit biased, but come on— Look at his face! Look at his cute, widdle feet and chubby cheeks. Tell me you don't like him. Try to. You'll find you can't because he's the BEST!

Best wishes,

Mabel <3

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

I appreciate you going out of your way to ask me this question. If I were to choose my favorite character out of all of them from the show, I would probably choose Bill Cipher. May seem strange at first (considering the character I play and all), but it most likely stems from the fact that I love horror, and Bill? He feels like he stepped straight out of some weird, psychological or body horror film. I'm honestly suprised he was deemed "child-friendly" enough to be placed in the show, but if it allowed us to end up with an excellent character, then I'll just reap the benefits from a flawed system. If I only would be able to do the same for capitalism. Just kidding, I don't have to worry about that...yet.

Sincerely,

Mason

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Thank you for sending me this question! I don't tend to usually receive many. I'm not as popular as the other actors, but in all honesty, I'm fine with that. Who's my favorite character? Probably Mabel, but not in the same way as my character feels toward her in the show. I just think she's really sweet with a heart of gold; that's all. I hope your day goes swell.

Best regards,

Deon

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Hi. I just want to say: Thank you so much, dude (neutral). It warms my heart to know you all have some interest in me as a person. Now, who's my favorite character? Hmm... This is a serious, chin-holding question, I'm gonna be honest. I'd probably go with Mr. Stanley Pines. He's a fun dude in the show with a good sense of humor. Very cool. Thanks again!

Cheers,

Alza (or Alzamirano if we're going to be formal. Are we?)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

Hey there! Thank you kindly for sending this me this ask. I don't believe I could express just how greatly I appreciate it. Onto the question: "Who's my favorite character? Why?" Well, I would say that it's Pacifica Northwest. A lot of people tend to write rich folks as heartless and shallow, as if there's nothing human about them and they're just a soul-less name. I say that's just not true. Every human being is a human being! They are have a heart hidden beneath their skin that beats as much as yours. There's a person behind that wealthy name who lives and breathes. Yet, when it comes to fiction, writers will act like there's not. The writers for this show didn't though. They gave that rich person a personality behind the name and that name is Pacifica.

With gratitude,

Hadron

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

This was one of the most interesting questions out of my mountains of fanmail, so I shall answer it first (I'm half-joking, I love and appreciate all of my fans; don't attack me with pitchforks). Who is moi's favorite character, you ask? Why, I shall delight you with a response! You better write this down into the history books. History is happening (hence what books they'll be written in)! My favorite character is...drumroll please...🥁🥁🥁🥁

...

(Wait for it.)

...

(Come on, you can be patient. Sheesh, give a triangle some time.)

...

None other than Stanford Filbrick Pines! Everyone give me a round of applause for answering a question with personal thoughts tied to it! And maybe a margarita while you're at it. No, I will not be explaining why or elaborating on my answer. The show's community is built on theorizing, this is practically a homage to that and certainly not an attempt to avoid introspect.

Yours,

William

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

You want to know who my favorite character is? Fine. I'll give ya three hints. You get it wrong, you owe me five dollars. Deal? Deal.

1. He appeared at a later date

2. He has fingers

3. He's a nerd

There you go. If you said anyone other than Stanford, then pay up. Ya owe me money from the bet that you definitely, 100% agreed to. As for why he's my favorite, he reminds me a lot of my brother! Nerdy, socially awkward, and a huge stick in the mud (but in an affectionate way).

PayPal me,

Stan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Majoringinfanfiction,

I would like to start this letter by informing you of just how honored I am that you chose to send fanmail of me to all people. I was doubtful that anyone would enjoy my performances and insecure of my worth in the acting industry. However, these thoughts were proven to be quite incorrect just moments after the episode of my first appearance aired. I cannot state just how much everyone's support has meant to me. With that said, I will now proceed to answer your question.

I would, in full confidence, state that Stan is my favorite character due to how much he's like my brother. They truly are similar; it's very uncanny. Yet, it also only strengthens my fondness of the character. I hope that my response is found satisfactory.

Cordially,

Dr. Ford

(Trigger Warning: Patricia's section contains allusions to child neglect, abuse, use by parents, manipulation, and devaluing of self-worth. It doesn't go too heavily into detail, in my opinion, because the entire post is supposed to be structured like an article written from an outsider's perspective, but it's still there. Please consider either skipping the whole thing together or scrolling down to Alzamirano(Actor!Soos)'s section if you're sensitive to this type of content.)

Patricia:

Patricia has made her mark in the world as one of the most famous tweens of this day and age. Originally, her family was just your average one, living in common mediocrity. However, one day the young blonde asked her parents if she could participate in a beauty pageant, believing that it would be fun. They decided that it couldn't hurt and prehaps give their unplanned mistake of a daughter to become something worthy of their attention for once, so she was enrolled into the annual "Sprouting Elegance" contest. She immediately won and was gifted millions of dollars as the cash price. The amount of money was unlike any her parents had seen before, the luxurious life it allowed them to live was addicting. Thus, they became to crave more of it, desiring more and more, so that they would never have to live how they had before. Driven by greed Deciding that it would build character, they soon began to enroll her in numerous other pageants, collecting waves of money. They started a family blog to post updates on their life, displaying just how lovely and wonderful their family was, how they were living the dream. Patricia certainly dreamed; she dreamed of a world where she never came up with the idea, where she had better parents.

Eventually, her mother came to her and suggested developing a career in something that would let her put her pretty face to even more good use — acting! It would build an even more stable living for them her and maximize their her success. It was perfect! There was no reason to decline, no reason at all. So, of course, Patricia accepted and went along with whatever acting roles they were able to find for her. I mean, why wouldn't she? They knew best. Besides, without them, she would have never earned the stardom everyone else could hope of receiving. Without them, she was nothing. They created her. They were the ones who molded her into the perfect child, into who she was today. The least she could do for them was every. Little. Thing. They. Asked.

It wasn't that difficult for her to rise to the top as a child actor, considering she was already famous and of much status. Her most recent role was playing popular, rich girl "Pacifica Northwest" in the TV series "Gravity Falls". When asked on she felt about the character, she gave an intriguing response.

"It's complicated. And to-tally none of your— ... I mean, it's...personal. I feel like I know her very well and not just because I'm her actress. Though, I probably know her the best out of everyone solely because of that. That's all I'll say. You figure it out if you're so obsessed with mysteries (and me), weirdos," she said when delving into her implied love-hate relationship with the character she played.

She can frequently be found hanging out with Hadron (actor of "Fiddleford McGucket"). When she first arrives on set — her dad leaving as soon as she walks through the doors to there — she stands around, her eyes scanning through the clusters of people hanging about. She then will walk on over to where Hadron is ( typically talking to a bushing Stan [actor of "Stanley Pines"]) and tug on the sleeve of his fern green, button-up shirt in order to get his attention. He will turn his head and smile at her, and the two will engage in conversation. The mere sight of him always makes her eyes light up and twinkle, though she will try to act like she doesn't care.

She's also decently close to Mason (actor of "Dipper Pines") and his best friend, Mabel (actor of "Mabel Pines"). Mabel will occasionally drag Patricia over to where she and Mason are, and they'll all talk together as a trio. Mabel will knit a sweater, using Patricia as a model as she does, and will chatter away about stuff that delights her as the blonde and other brunette exchange amused looks, entertained by their friend's antics. In reverse, Patricia will kidnap Mason and paint his face with makeup, promising to turn him into the 'most beautiful boy who's ever lived' as Mabel giggles loudly at the scene. (Mason either swears at her the whole time or fumes in silence when this happens; Patricia only smirking in return.) When their peppy friend is not around, the duo will fire insults at each other like the sun won't come out tomorrow (some of them were used as inspiration for the actual script of the "Northwest Mansion Mystery" episode).

Also, contrary to popular belief, Patricia's hair really is naturally blonde.

Alzamirano:

Alzamirano, or commonly referred to as simply "Alza," was cast as the actor of "Jesus 'Soos' Ramirez" from the show "Gravity Falls". He was an orphan as a kid before he was adopted by a nurturing family. Their love and care allowed him to blossom into a kind person who always looked out for and after others. In order to give other orphans like himself a chance and a better place to grow up than in some of the terrible orphanages they're placed in, he started his own orphanage. That way, he could try his best to help the community and know he was giving every effort to truly assist people.

However, running an orphanage wasn't cheap, so he took up multiple jobs. He became a cook, a bus driver, a tour guide, etcetera, etcetera. Eventually, he stumbled across an ad requiring understudies for a film. It stated that they didn't have to be professionals and the salary was reasonable, so he decided to sign up. Last minute, the main actor he was an understudy for ended up calling off, so he had to take their place. Stepping into the spotlight and performing felt natural, and the crowd loved his show. Soon after, he started to get calls for jobs. He had found a career he could truly become successful with and gain a steady pay from to keep his orphanage stable and thriving.

On set, he's very a chill guy who gets along well with Mabel and, in all honesty, who wouldn't? He inquires about the living conditions for all for the children and has been seen to check in on Patricia specifically on a regular basis. He's bought multiple clothes and packages of food for her after realizing that she pretty much wears the same four pairs clothes all the time, just in different combinations, and how unhealthily thin she appears to be.

"Do you really have to try and spread gossip? Don't you have anything better to do or is your life just so sad that you live off of other people's lives to be fulfilled. Anything and everything about her personal life is personal! It's in the name. She's not required to share anything with you, nor am I. Why Mr. Alzamirano does what he does and what he suspects, if anything at all, is none of your business. You want to know something? He's a nice person and the stuff he does is nice. There you go. There's your hot scoop. Go crazy over it," Mason defensively stated when we questioned him about the Alza's gifts for Patricia.

He's friends with Stan and appreciative of the constant donations he sends towards the orphanage he runs.

After being reblogged a second time with this, I have finally mustered up the courage to do this! @majoringinfanfiction tagging you here because technically you reblogged it to me first, so in case you're interested in hearing my responses.

1. If you could be any animal, which one would you choose to be?

I would choose to be a cat because I'm a cat person, I enjoy alone time (I'm an introvert), tend to wander wherever *cough cough* pace through rooms *cough cough* when I'm bored, and my love language is physical touch, so I get definitely see myself being affectionate in cat ways.

2. What would you choose to wear when you're in a hurry?

It genuinely would depend on where I'm going: Is it a formal event or a casual meet-up? Who would be there? Friends, superiors, or foes? Assuming I wouldn't have enough time to figure out these variables, I would most likely decide to wear something that would fit well in any category: A white blouse decorated with black flowers, small ruffles on the edges, and two drawstrings towards the bottom that can be used to shift it into a fancier shape; a black undershirt to complement the black flowers and because I don't feel comfortable exposing too much skin; faded blue denim jeans that flair out at the bottom with a cut in the side and flowers sewn into the design; and, lastly, a simple pair of black tennis shoes.

3. Are you a witch, vampire, fairy, dryad, siren, or mermaid and why do you think so?

This was personally a difficult question for me. I already had an idea of what each creature was like, but I still googled them to have an even better picture of which one I would most likely be. In the end, I settled on the mermaid. I love the water — it feels natural to me — and I am an excellent swimmer. I have a strong will and don't bend to other people, which, personality-wise, are what mermaids are supposed to be like. Also, I'm not 100% if singing became a hobby associated with mermaids when they sorta fused with sirens (in terms of concepts) and became the modern version of them, but I love to sing and am very much a theater kid at heart!

4. What is your style?

So, my favorite clothing style and the ideal way I would dress (if I had the money to afford it 💀) would be kawaii lolita. For those not familiar with the style, it's essentially adorable frilly dresses with large, poofy skirts — all colored in pastel! I love it and I feel like it radiates my personality (you'd be more likely to agree if you knew me irl 😅).

...

Unfortunately, though, I don't actually dress that way due to the financial debt it would put me in. In reality, my style ranges from what I'd describe as cute casual to casual chill to extremely fancy. I wear a lot of sweaters (both open ones and regular, collar-less ones) and leggings when it's colder. Once it starts to get warmer, you won't ever catch me dead wearing shorts; it's skorts only! I dress, admittedly, very feminine with my clothes. (Please don't take this as me saying I think there's anything wrong with that — there's not, I'm just saying it in order to give a better idea of what my style is like.)

5. Regular milk or plant-based milk?

I only drink regular milk. I didn't realize that plant-based milk was something people drink until this question, though I suppose it makes sense.

6. Milk or cereal first?

I find it crazy that people debate over this kind of stuff. I put the cereal in the bowl first, then pour the milk second. Otherwise, I would do drastically terrible measurements and end up with a mess of overflowing milk. Then, I would be murdered by my family for causing such a disaster, and I would never be seen again. The end.

7. Favorite way to kill someone?

I just want to preface this by saying that I'm no murderer, nor do I intend on becoming one. With that being said, in terms of actual methods, I don't have one. However, I do love it (from a writer's perspective) when a character just monologues about all of the crazy ways to murder someone like an info-dumping machine as they casually perform the deed. It's displays just how unhinged and detached the character is, which I enjoy from a — and I repeat — writer's perspective.

I'm not pressuring any of you to do this, but I'm supposed to tag mutuals, so...

@ameluvs @kat-reich-4222000 @sunbxf

Once again, don't feel like you have to do this. It's all a matter of choice.

thankyou for the tag @preposterousray 🖤

get to know your mutuals♡

if you could be any animal which one would you choose to be? (can be fictional) (and you can explain why if you want to) I think I would choose to be a bengal tiger because I have always resonated with them 🐅 <3

what would you choose when you're in a hurry and have nothing to wear?

hm, a black singlet top, fishnet tights and black denim shorts with lace, hair in two spiky buns, eyeshadow and lipgloss, some bracelets and obviously my scoliosis brace but that is a mobility aid lol

are you a witch, vampire, fairy, dryad, siren or a mermaid and why do you think so?

I think either a witch (darkness, chaos, magic, freedom, and power, and animals, besides I’m already into witchery) and a vampire (turning into a bat, flying, supernatural powers, macabre)

what is your style?

idk man I love and admire both gothic fashion and punk-rock fashion. diy, scraps, lace, patches, studs, spikes, fishnets, jewellery, mesh, paint, safety pins, stockings, short skirts and shorts, crop tops, weird hairstyles and makeup, expressing individuality and rebellion and the macabre and unusual — and if I’m being formal then thrifted suit jackets and vampy curly updos ✨

regular milk or plant based milk?

regular milk 🥛

which one do you put first milk or cereal?

milk because I am a psychopath

nah I’m actually kidding I obviously put cereal first I just wanted to annoy whoever was reading this

fav way to kill someone? (idgaf if you never thought of it now you have to think of something and make it at least a bit cool I'm begging)

pull one of their eyes out with my fingers, shove a handkerchief into their eye socket, and then throw them the fuck overboard a ship to drown in the unforgiving sea kaz brekker style

I am writing these words after losing hope in everyone… except for you, my friends. Tumblr has a very large number of users, estimated in the millions . That’s an enormous number! But imagine, with all those of people, how would you feel if people saw you and ignored you? You’d feel deeply disappointed, right? Or maybe you’d even wish for death.

Have you ever wished for death? For me, I feel like I’d rather die than be ignored by everyone. If I wasn’t in desperate need of help, I wouldn’t ask anyone for it. I really need help.

Imagine for a moment that you have a small child you love dearly, and you’re forced to watch her suffer in front of your eyes. This isn’t just an imagination for me; it’s my reality. My family and I live this pain every day.

Please, be our hope. Be our voice. Be the ones who save us from despair. Don’t ignore us. Donate, even if it’s just $5 .

There are so many people reading this post right now. I beg anyone who sees these words to donate if they can, and if not, to share this post. Please, don’t leave us behind.

🌍✨ A Voice from Gaza: Fighting for Hope ❤️‍🩹

Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

Our Journey So Far

When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.

But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️

Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.

Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

—Meet the Cast!—

(Part Three: Representatives of the South)

Hadron:

Hadron is a popular country singer known for his genuine, southern charm. His signature instrument is the banjo, which can be heard playing in the background of most of his music. Raised in the South, he developed fond memories of the countryside and decided to share its beauty with the world through his songs. He's been ridiculed by numerous people for his accent, background, and style, but is determined not to allow them to break his spirit. He's proud of where he's from and isn't willing to change that, no matter what the haters may say.

Hadron is the actor of the character "Fiddleford McGucket" and was chosen for the role due to being a southern icon. Through his acting, he gave Fiddleford some country charm that ended up well-received by the audience. It wasn't limited to just on set either, since he would spend time in-between shoots and breaks playing his banjo; filling the room with austral tunes.

"Sometimes, when everything is bor-ing, he'll just grab that...guitar-thing...and play it. Some people will suddenly stop talking just to listen, and soak it in. I... I like it when he plays it. The music is nice, and he's not as lame as people say. Don't make a big deal out of that, though," Patricia (actor of "Pacifica Northwest") noted about the brunette singer.

A side gig he has is teaching students on how to play the banjo after much interest being expressed in the instrument once his songs became popular. Patricia, in particular, decided to join his courses, intrigued by the melodies he made. He is said to be a very calm and patient teacher, though prone to sarcasm and bitterness.

He's been viewed to be closest with Patricia, Stan, and Ford out of the entire cast. The young blonde talks to him often, asking for advice and requesting his opinions on things. She'd never say this, but it's clear that she looks up to him. (Possibly seeing him as a father figure in light of her parent's neglect.) Stan has a tendency to flirt with him and occasionally Hadron will reciprocate the acts, usually leading to the former person turning red (Ford is oblivious to this behavior). Whether this is just friendly banter and play, or something more is left to be seen. He also quickly became friends with Ford, due to their similar introverted natures and nerdiness.

Deon:

Deon was cast with the role of "Gideon Gleeful" for the series. He has a history of acting in several action and historical films, but he usually played a background character in those. Gideon is his first major role and because of that he was eager to give his greatest performance.

"He was always so bubbly! Like, I could just pop him! Haha. But, seriously, he tried really hard to do his best. And I think that deserves a sticker," Mabel energetically insisted when talking about her fellow cast member.

He, too, was raised in the South. However, he ended up moving up North when he was young, since his parents desired to give their son the best opportunities possible and wanted to go where potential was bustling as a result. And they sure did take advantage of the fresh start! When Deon had begun to display both enthusiasm and promise in acting, they were discovered by a talent scout, who offered jobs within the realm. Once Deon was firmly sure this was what he wanted, his acting career took a start.

Deon tends to himself, typically sticking to the corner unless it's his scene, and doesn't socialize much. However, when he does, most of the time it's with Mabel. He finds her optimism and confidence to be infectious (in the best way) and admirable.
