#Bill is such a jerk

[omegalomania]

I THINK THAT BOY'S GOT A SWEET TOOTH SO I'LL PUT SUGAR IN HIS GAS TANK THEN I'LL WASH MY HANDS CLEAN OF YOU CLEAN OF YOU

#fall out boy #pete wentz #william beckett #a little less sixteen candles a little more touch me #a little less sixteen candles #*mine #*art #id in the alt text #this has been lying on my desktop for like a month so i cleaned it up today #been thinking a lot abt the 16c mv in the context of how heavily focused on petes pov it is... #so naturally that skews the way we see events #the ending doesnt make much literal sense but in the context of how pete feels it makes entirely too much sense #got me thinking abt petes relationship with revenge on bilvy #the way hes projecting all his distress and self-hatred wrt his vampirism upon bilvy #leading to him focusing on a tangible goal: revenge on the guy who turned him #in lieu of actually dealing w any of the psychological baggage of becoming a vampire #maybe bills a bit of a jerk as a vampire anyway #but the notion of pete pouring all his rage and distress on the concrete goal of revenge means hes not dealing w the core cause #hes treating the symptom but not the etiology. and he wont ever deal w it properly if he keeps that up

So let’s say that Dipper never made the first move in Faking It- could they still have fallen in love?

Also father I crave whump!!! Take your time though, writing is hard :/

They would have! They were already dipping their toes into that particular water, Dipper making the first move just sped things along.

I think in an alternate scenario where Dipper didn't do the do, either: everything pans out the same with minor differences, OR: He's in a way less chipper mood when Ford arrives. Which means he's a lot more cagey with Ford, doesn't accompany his uncle when he breaks the curse. And since he didn't tell Ford where it happened, it comes out of nowhere when the thing's broken - but it's also done with less deadly intent. Which makes Bill (surprisingly, even to himself) alarmed, because, shit, Dipper just up and collapsed right next to him, did he just die? - and when Dipper survives despite the odds against him - Ford doesn't find out who Bill is, due to Dipper not wanting to hang out with him all that much.

Overall, these two idiots would be given a lot more time and space to bicker and argue and flirt for long enough that they get Domestic again, before they get freaky.

#answers #They mostly would get domestic as Bill finally gets through his extinction response of getting back to the Mindscape #And figures 'welp might as well have fun while I'm here' #And has moments of horror as he realises he actually *likes* some of this 'boring' mortal stuff as long as Dipper's around #Something about this extraordinarily stubborn jerk who'll defy Bill's mortal nemesis and *still* not cave to Bill himself does it for him #And Dipper is forced to face facts: Yes he *does* like Bill. For Bill. This is the worst thing *ever* #And in the case where everything pans out the same except for the fuckin' #Dipper decides he wants Bill back even after Ford kills him #Because Bill's interesting. Because he's clever and intelligent and mocking and weird and evil #Because he's giving Dipper power. Because he's fascinating. Because he is *the* most interesting thing to ever happen to him #No way DIpper was letting that escape! Not when he has a demon he has to prevent (protect) from everyone else #(Bill's already head over angles and with no revelation as to what the chest throbs mean; he thinks it's just a trick of the body) #So he still pulls the marriage deal but some of the other parts are hidden. Like: 'ha ha! Now you *can't* shag anyone but me so there' #Don't worry Dipper it works out way better than you think once you finally cave

Quick heads up

In your newest chapter of holding out for a hero, you call the driver by 2 names. Jimmy, first then later james, I don't believe this was intentional so I thought I'd let you know

Thanks for looking out, Anon!! Jimmy is actually a nickname for James. I don't know why.

But Darlin would absolutely not try using nicknames for someone they barely know while Asher would absolutely try all the nicknames on a person he just met. <3 <3

#redactedverse #nicknames are weird #how did they get bill from william? #or dick from robert? #really that one i think was just someone being a jerk and it stuck and became a thing #dick already meant DICK #<3

In my opinion, we don't devote nearly enough scientific research to finding a cure for jerks.

billions(tm): it's incredible how we just provide a little snippet of material designed to be "guy we all want to push down the stairs immediately somehow" and through this amazing acting alchemy it becomes gold. electric. magnificent. we can't get enough so we will just keep writing this loser character and the actor will somehow keep bringing the dazzling transmutation through his ability

actor will roland: [is aware autistic people are real]

#this is at least half humorous in several ways lmao but also like fr... #winston billions #will roland has pretty much said he is aware that autistic people real. and not [ppl's utterly off the walls assumptions abt what Defines #Autism or what an Autistic Person is like and how you would Know] #i don't think that Billions(tm) would be very much better at that than re: say; taylor's being nonbinary (surprisingly alright yet. u kno) #quant kid 2 could've been anyone but writing Winston is like so certainly the common deal of the inadvertently autistic character #drawing from all the autistic people allistic ppl encounter all thee time without being aware & deciding they're annoying / jerks / too #weird to live too pathetic to die / grating nerds / Funnily Odd in a way you deign to merely raise an eyebrow or scrunch your face at.... #so on so forth. ''oh you know Those People we all know who are just Like That'' #and deciding they must be ''just like that'' b/c they're either too arrogantly rude &/or clueless / Unaware to be neurotypically superior #also do not get me wrong lmao big old proponent of Did You Know That? Actors Act. Now You Know #so of course yes will's acting is off the shits i mean here i am am i right. and he is using it when he is acting. #the acting talent Is off the shits. the tiniest moments they give him & he CRUSHES KILLS it really is amazing i'm not waving it off at all #cue twitter randos so betrayed when kelly aucoin is not dollar bill & is like ''yes in my acting job i'm playing this fuckin asshole'' #meanwhile i'm still following the interviewer who a) asked will anything abt billions b) talked abt the immediate striking intro of will's #as quant kid 2 And the immediate draw of / effervescent dynamic between winston & taylor. Someone Who Gets It #anyway it's like will can fathom that actually the people who are Always ''acting wrong'' w/their bad grating vibes no matter what they do #are not always Those People(tm) who We all know & loathe right....thee magic of knowing winston can be someone fully earnest #and of course always actually trying; & having perfectly comprehensible wants & needs. damn how's he doing that #bringing a certain je ne sais quoi to this Insufferable Loser Nerd material! so we don't mess with the process. #i.e. we will only ever let his role get dunked on forever b/c sure can't fathom anything else anyways. our Correct characters could never.. #only tuk; adjacent in wrong nerd loserdom; can be his friend. rian who is correct but zany with it can be his abusive friend

Does anyone know why Ken seems to dislike Bioshock 2? B2 is like the heart of the series. The game that shows Rapture is not completely filled with jerks like Fontaine, who doesn't seem able to care about anyone but themselves.

#so much so that Tenenbaum comes back 🥰 #bioshock #bioshock 2 #i like fontaine a lot but hes a heartless jerk #and bob was all alone being the sane friend #ken Levine #bill* lol

Hiya! I'm a bit of a newbie to writing billdip and I struggle the most with dialogue and generally Bills character. I really admire your writing and was wondering if you have any pieces of advice for writing Bill.

I am highly unqualified to give advice on this subject! But here's a few things that come to mind when I think of how I write Bill!

Bill kinda has three main settings: Disinterested, Excited, and Angry. Think of them like levels on a sound mixer, while also being very Impulsive and having an Easily Shifting Mood.

Bored but willing to keep up a conversation because it *could* get interesting. Engaged in the talk he's having, but annoyed enough to insult the person he's talking to at any chance. Furious and excited enough to start making really creative threats!

Dialogue-wise, he's either dismissive, upbeat, or pissed off. He loves mocking people, displaying his superiority, and implication and wordplay. If there's a way to slide in a jab he'll often take it! Puns are not off the table, especially if they'll get a disgusted look or groan. And if he's making a metaphor or comparison he'll often reach for something obscure or downright bizarre.

He's also very manipulative, and convincing. He's got charm to him and can use it - but he also tends to throw in double-talk while he's doing it. (think the 'All I want is a puppet!' scene from the show)

Another point: Talking directly about himself (unless it's to brag) is basically Not A Thing. He might drop hints, but you need a heavy-duty crowbar to drag out anything even slightly beyond surface level.

And that guy's never going to admit when he's having a negative emotion that isn't anger! The best you can manage - if you know him well - is to realize when he's projecting like a motherfucker.

I have also violated all of these vague rules multiple times and will again! So take my suggestions with several grains of salt.

#This is not a character study just some thoughts I had #My brain is so poisoned with my own variant of this blorbo that this is not one size fits all #So definitely a big couple of salt cubes thrown in there #My brain is very bad and dumb #answers #Confusion is also a fun emotion on Bill but it rarely happens #It generally denatures into excitement at New Thing or annoyed at Hey That's Not Cool!! #When he's baffled he comes to a decision quickly whether it's right or not #Another tip for Bill because he's an asshole: Let him fail!! #Everyone likes seeing assholes fail #And Bill fucking up out of his own hubris is the best thing #That's not a character tip it's just a good tip for writing likeable assholes #If you want him full unlikable make him absolutely unassailable #Everyone hates a bully who always wins but everyone loves the jerk who tries to jerk then steps on a rake and gets hit in the face #Narrative dynamics at play

Started thinking about that chapter idea I had for Triangulum, where the Henchmaniacs are all hiding out in town after the Nightmare Realm kinda...you know...imploded after the events of Weirdmageddon (I know it was still there in Don't Dimension It! but shh), and Ford expects them to be just another thing to add to the pile of stress that's already accumulated with Bill's return-

-but then it turns out they're all totally chill with Ford because Bill fucking sucked and was actually the worst to them, so now Ford is their new bestie because he helped play a part in killing them. Naturally Ford is trying to inch his way to the nearest exit without drawing attention to himself, but THEN they all start going into their own stories of how they met Bill and some backstory stuff-

-and Ford literally moves back to the group quick as a flash, suddenly a LOT more interested in what they're talking about.

#Hayley Writes Triangulum #I'm still toying with where I want the chapter to be #I'm thinking after the halfway mark but I'm still not sure #I do know it'll be fun #I also like to imagine that the chapter will end with the Henchmaniacs realizing that they miss Bill to some degree- #-but also he's a jerk so they'll at least not let him back in their circle #Which is probably what happens when Bill reveals that he IS alive again
