an excerpt of COSMOS, a longform inosaku fan comic i’ve been aching to draw for years and will likely never get to…
(my headcanon is that ino practicing her clan’s signature mind-body technique was the origin of sakura’s split personality, depicted in the early manga as “inner sakura” :3c)
cor's youth told through six relationships!!

My evil Stan AU.
Premise is, basically, Stan falls through the portal instead of Ford and into the Nightmare Dimension. Bill brainwashes/convinces/tortures him into hating Ford (perhaps his own was an asshole?), and Stan “Piraña” Pines becomes an interdimensional hitman and bounty hunter, tracking down the many Portal Fords and either killing them or delivering them back to Bill to be personally tortured to death.
Bill cannot leave the Nightmare Dimension, so he uses Evil Stan as a personal meat puppet and channels his powers through him, damaging his eye (hence the eyepatch) and accelerating the aging of his body. In exchange for this willing possession, though, Stan can also use some of Bill’s powers (shapeshifting black tentacles!!) to survive on strange planets and even the void of space for a short amount of time.
Not all is angst and violence, I promise! There are plenty of incompetent henchman shenanigans. See, unfortunately for our amoral protagonist, he is still identical to Ford so sometimes he gets confused for the very bounty he’s chasing XDD
BAD DEAL, BAD END
(a what if scenario wherein Ford and Stan are captured by Bill during Weirdmaggedon, and tortured so Bill can get Ford to cough up the equation to free him and his minions. Bill can control space and matter so he can bring the twins back to life as many times as he so desires).

Grunkle Stan an’ Ford traveling the world by boat, sending snailmail postcards and photos to the kids.
Growing up it was obvious Ford was bothered by his hands, even more so because others teased him for it. But no matter how many times it took, Stan did his best to make Ford feel better.
