Doodle Of A Fireflower From Mario To Help Me Get Into The Habit Of Drawing At Least Something Once A

Doodle of a Fireflower from Mario to help me get into the habit of drawing at least something once a day

And here, we have the lovely parents.....

......totally confused about how this even happened

My thoughts about the kid are below the cut if you wanna read

I'll be honest, I never gave em a name so if you're reading this feel free to just come up with one in the comments or something.

Aside from that, I did try to keep some things in mind when I drew them. I wanted to use triangles to make up the entire body but I thought it looked off and ended up harnessing Jax's twink energy. In hindsight I could've given the kid yellow ears and be done w/ it, but I couldn't resist reopening old wounds for good ol' Billy. Sometimes kids adopt traits from their grandparents and I wanted to reference Bill's parents in some way. Kinda makes me wonder if Bill would even accept this kid. Allow me to go on a little tangent if you please.

The creator of Gravity Falls himself answered that Bill's character is that of a spoiled kid that never grew up and that's completely true, but there's something deeper going on. Bill's immaturity stems from a deeply traumatic experience: destroying his own universe. We don't know specifically how or why he did it, but it still happened, and while Bill plays it off as "liberating" the flat minds of the people of his flat world in the show, we can see in his book that Bill regrets what he did. The benevolent God of Gravity Falls, The Axolotl, confirms it: "Saw his own dimension burn/Misses home but can't return." Bill even calls himself a monster in when we read his book, one that would eat Ford alive.

How does this relate to Bill's immaturity? Bill lives in denial. He can't face the reality that he killed everyone he knew and loved, so he tries to drown out their screams with unrestrained chaos. He needs to be distracted so he doesn't have to think about them anymore. Bill doesn't want to grow up, because that would mean acknowledging that he did and still does awful things to those around him. @praisetheaxolotl goes into better detail about Bill and his issues, if you're a Gravity Falls fan then you should take a look at their stuff I think they're awesome.

Back to the beginning, what does all this mean for the kid? Well, Bill probably isn't gonna care too much for their health or mental state. He may try to encourage them act as he does. Uncaring of others and disregarding guilt or remorse in favor of "fun." Honestly, Jax may do the same though I can't be absolutely sure of that. We don't have much on Jax's character when compared to Bill.

Man, it really is hard to make an interesting character with no trauma whatsoever. Guess that'll be something for me to try in the future.

....I drew a Bill Jax fankid....

I wanted to take a nap but couldn't because I don't want to screw up my already skewed sleep schedule

Do you guys think that Will Cipher is a version of Bill that fully expresses his feelings about destroying his own universe instead of hiding what's really going on?

He's just a sad littol guy. A soggy cool ranch dorito if you will.

Also, here's another version of the outfit bc I couldn't decide which one I liked more. Even added a doodle of Opposite Jax smiling. I don't really see him happy so I just decided, eh what the heck why not?

Will is happy to have such a nice friend now and Jax enjoys the appreciation hug.

Last night I did some doodles while listening to Steven Universe and picked out a few to color.

REBLOG if you have amazing talented artist friends!
