Hello dear readers! ❤️📖

There’s been a little discourse in A Human Condition’s comment section and a recent post by @orpheuswasmine referencing some character parallels with Bill from this song.

However.

I have NOT seen mentioned that a younger Ford Pines, with all of his grand, historic, world-changing ambitions, who was constantly striving for more accomplishments, more accolades and could never be satisfied with any of it, probably out of some misplaced sense that only by achieving great things and being an exceptional genius could he ever be loved and accepted despite his six fingers, would ALSO relate heavily to this.

Imagine Bill when he figured that out as well.

Just a little food for thought for you all. 😉

Hey everyone! Come check out some of @orpheuswasmine fanart! 🤩 They’ve done a great job with all the costumes leading up to summerween!

A human condition fanart dump 😼 I wasn’t going to render but I emded up loving the sketch of Bill in Ford’s outfit so I chose happiness 🥹

I was on a PLANE rendering him, and when I tell you my ears have not been free of the aftermath 😭 this might be Bill’s karmic justice against me

Always on about my love for long hair yet I still struggle to draw it 😭 I have a lot of concept ideas for environments in mind like Bill’s and Billy’s headspace. Left brain Right Brain at it’s finest !!!

Of course !!! I had to draw the twins !!! My sibling had looked at my collection of A Human Condition fanart and started DRAGGING ME for completely blocking out Dippers face in my comic canvas 😭 He clocked me, by pointing out the obvious that I didn’t want to draw another face 😿 obviously came to redeem myself I do not like Ford’s face once so ever, so I’ll probably have to make a more updated face model chart for Ford and Stan since they are twins 💀

I want to draw the enviorment headspace between Bill and Billy now as a warmup😼 and maybe get a headstart on the grunkles 🔥🔥🔥 but for that eviorment concelt to work, I might need to rewatch a movie I mentioned before 🐺 So with that, I leave with one of my MANY favorite quotes from The Last Unicorn that fits Bill a little too well:

“Do you hear me? You lost her! You trapped her in a human body! She’ll go mad!”

This isn’t my ultimate favorite quote, it’s what Almathea says when she wakes up after what Molly just said 🥹 But I’m begging everyone to gp watch the Last Unicorn if you haven’y sern it !!! It’s free on YouTube i always start crying after finishing it

@sapphosscribe i might dm you again to show the concept of environments, but I am currently in a whole other country at a party so it’ll probably take a while 😭😭 ENJOY THE SNACKS I HAVE PROVIDED

We have some more character analysis on Bill from the latest chapter of A Human Condition @orpheuswasmine gets into some theories I will neither confirm nor deny. Come check it out after you read the latest! Obviously spoilers abound.

Hey so actually, the newest chapter for A Human Condition fueled my BILL vs Billy analysis and I actually want to CRY, now I’m nack to the board, adding on to it and making more small notes

GUYS GUYS THE MABEL HUGGINHG BILL SCENE, I HAD A VISION 😭😭 I know that face was shifted between those two cuckoos ☹️ but it was Bill who ultimately won over the moment he saw Ford. His selfishness and arrogance come first 😕

Ford bringing the Billy side out through the Candyland game is so heart-wrenching I actually wanted to collapse, they made me so happy and then when Ford realized what was going on, I just VISUALIZED Bill’s face shifting to his default, almost treading the line between BILL and Billy ☹️ and when he called out to Ford, that literally had to be Billy I refuse to believe anything else

It KILLS ME ☹️ personally, I think the only way the Bill vs Billy situation could ever be resolved is Bill accepting Billy and the full healing process continues, or Billy is just completely killed all over again. (Worst-case scenario, Bill accepts Billy but it doesn’t matter because some thing happen and Bill reverts back, the piece of Billy dying)

OH AND THE FIDDLESTAN SCENE HOLY SHIT 😭 GOSH I WAS HOPING FIDDLESTAN WOULD BE INCLUDED !!! They made me so happy this chapter, had me in tears fr… Sorry, I might be overthinking this, and maybe call this a stretch or not, but the fixing the railroad was such a perfect parallel to Bill and Ford ☹️ Except with was the oppsite, where Stan went into a defense mode and then soon softening up, quite literally the opposite to Bill 😭 Stan continues to parallel Bill but he’s if Bill changed for the better. Fiddlestan and Billford my beloved.

Both these couple weave together so beautifully and it drives me insane ☹️ to love someone who doesn’t know themselves is the most challenging form of love, but they just need to guide each other to the safety of security 😭

Fiddlestan being included guys, im actually so happy and such the perfect balance for Billford angst that’s actually going to bash into us. I fear they are going to have so much parallel to each other and I’m not ready ☹️

This was Chapter 29 got me looking like bro 😭 LIKE HOLY FART, what I give to already be good at animations because I would have absolutely tried animating so many scenes 😭 A Human Condition is so animated worthy and that would stop me from at least learning 🥹

@sapphosscribe I SHOULDVE WAITED FOR THIS CHAPTER TO BE OUT BUT IT SERIOUSLY HELP ADD ON TO EVIDENCE FOR MY ANALYSIS 😭😭 back to the drawing board everyone, i need to AT LEAST make a sketch for the scenes i want to redraw 🥹

Chapter update will be a little late today dearies!

Due to a mix of writer’s block, long flights, and longer meetings, we are a bit behind schedule. Never fear! It’ll be out soon 🫶🏻

Fanart by @raviolireptile you guys!! Absolutely love this interpretation of Bill and the work with all the colors and expressions, it’s so fun!! 😆🥰

Fanart of chapter 28 of A Human Condition by @sapphosscribe on Ao3

Absolutely loved this chapter! Reminds me when I had all of the exact perfect cards for the last like 6 rounds of BS and won flawlessly… good times

A-X-O-L-O-T-L

The time has come!

Enjoy your regular Sunday update! 🩷🩵

Bill saw the tv glow everybody. Give it up for @orpheuswasmine who has done a fantastic job with this! I’m absolutely obssessed!!

Whispering softly “there’s still time” over and over to Bill in the hopes he gets the message 😉

“Park that car, drop that phone, sleep on the floor, dream about me.”

I COME WITH MORE A HUMAN CONDITION FANART (a background is here 😟 ive never drawn a background let alone rendered one) This piece is based on Chapter 25 !!! Actually fell in love with that chapter and while I was rendering the background after reading, I thought about making a duo drawing of Ford playing the piano, so it be a duology !!! If there’s a reference that mimics this I’d love to grab my hand on it !!! I love parallels 🙏 (this been edited bc the lighting was messed up and i forgot the other without the lighting 😿)

I hit Bill with the I Saw the TV Glow poster, because genuinely think that movie and the Last Unicorn would have torn him apart tbh 💀 I almost made the title a quote from either movie 😭

The Seven Stages of Writing:

1. Having the best idea for a story

2. Making a bunch of character sheets, plot outlines, snippets of scenes and playlists for inspiration

3. Sitting down to actually write the story

4. Realizing halfway through you don’t know anything about *insert random topic here* and go down an Internet rabbit hole to become an armchair expert while bullshiting the finer details and hoping no one notices.

5. Getting stuck for too long on a scene/ trying to make a character or plot Do A Thing™️ it’s not doing without it being contrived.

6. Wallowing about how terrible your writing is and how the whole story is basically a dumpster fire that should never see the light of day.

7. Going back to edit the whole thing and realizing it’s an absolute masterpiece and you were worried about nothing all along.
