Thank you so much for your votes, everyone! Remember these are just guidelines for those who work better with them or want to stick to them. Feel free to create pieces based on any of the suggested themes or use whatever inspiration comes to you! As usual, ships are okay as long as they’re between consenting adults and please keep content SFW. Also, @stanuary is still going on for anyone who’s interested!
And without further ado, the winners are:
Week 1 - Sleep/Ford x Sleep
Week 2- Dungeons Dungeons And More Dungeons
Week 3 - AU/Alternate Universe or Hands (Since AU was one of last year’s themes, for those who would like a new theme, Hands was a runner up that we’ve never used before so that will be the official alternate theme.)
Week 4- Hugs/Hug it out
For anyone who’s interested, the themes from past years are under the cut.

Thank you for such a high rating, it makes me happy! I am glad that I managed to convey the right atmosphere. I really like your fics, and I thought I could express it this way.
I drew this under the impression of the fan fiction "Not So Different (And We're Dying For It)" by @jacky-rubou
This was a good reason to experiment a little.
A little while ago I saw online someone had made a DND character sheet for Ford Pines. In the ability scores area, they had intelligence as the highest (makes sense), and strength as one of the lowest (fair enough)
But then they had wisdom as second highest and dexterity as second lowest, and I gotta say, I think those two need to be flipped
I mean let’s start with dexterity. Now I’m not an expert on DND by any means so apologies if I am misunderstanding dexterity here, but others have pointed out that Ford spent his entire adulthood chasing after and/or running from paranormal creatures. I guess I just feel like he has to have high dexterity for him to have even survived all those years.
Also this
But wisdom being low is where I feel most strongly.
I wouldn’t be the first to point out that Ford, while highly intelligent, completely lacks common sense.
People have noted that the safety measures for turning the portal on and off should have been reverse, that the portal shouldn’t have been that easy to turn on by accident and yet it required at least two people to turn it off.
He keeps an infinity die in a “cheap plastic case”
He gives a 12 year old a cross bow
He gives another 12 year old a mind control tie and tells him to “use it responsibly”
He takes Dipper out on several missions that were probably too dangerous for him, refer to the magnet gun above, where Dipper, if he didn’t do it right, could have fallen to his death, and Ford also took him on the mission to shoot Bill for …some reason???? Leave the 12 year old at home when you go kill god to save the world from the current apocalypse! Why do I even need to say that??? Also “don’t worry I’ve been down here countless times and all the aliens are dead…probably”
As I recall, “Bill proofing the shack” was his first line of defense and “Bill proof our minds” was “the next best thing” …shouldn’t those be reversed??? You gotta leave the shack at some point????
According to journal 3, Ford was the one who encouraged Stan to take the kids on a road trip RIGHT AFTER BILL PROOFING THE SHACK, which completely defeats the purpose of doing that in the first place.
I’ve pointed this out before, “Mabel will be fine! I watched her become pen pals with the pizza delivery man in the 15 seconds he was at the door!” … Ford…that’s creepy has hell, keep that pizza delivery man away from your niece!”
When weirdmageddon started he wrote in his journal????? And drew a lovely little detailed image?????
See that little greenish sticky note at the top? That’s my little note that says “when did you have time to write this?????” Seriously what. “It’s the end of the world…i gotta draw this and write a little entry on it before I save everyone!!!” It’s the drawing that really gets me. Okay write a note in case someone else has to take over but WHY THE DRAWING
And finally, everyone is holding hands at the Cipher Wheel. Stan is essential and is refusing to join unless Ford thanks him for saving him. Ford reluctantly does so. It’s now clear that Stan is willing to put everyone, Dipper and Mabel included, at risk just because he wants a thank you, so Ford decides this is a really good time to CORRECT STAN’S GRAMMAR
Look I say this with love but,
Ford may be the smartest people in the room but he’s also the biggest dumbass in the room. This man has no wisdom.
YALL KNOW WHAT DAY IT IS‼️
It’s fiddleford friday AND the day he first went to gravity falls!!!!
cha cha in the moonlight~

Yes, that's how it was intended
Here are a couple more sketches with this charming wizard. There is even a small sketch of his grumpy raven.
He has so many different charms (silly little guy, scruffy handsome little guy, loving mum/bigger sister little guy, tired divorced dad little guy...)
