Do You Think In The Evil Ford Au They Drunkenly Made Out Once And Just Either Chose To Never Bring It

do you think in the evil ford au they drunkenly made out once and just either chose to never bring it up again or forgot about it - journal-3

"once"? "drunkenly"?

My general "yeah y'all can play with this if you want" version of the Evil Ford AU, I've kept open-ended & ambiguous so folks can put whatever they want into it. What's official is "Ford has made the terrible decision of calling Bill his boss & bestie and so far he's been given no reason to regret it" and anything beyond that is whatever anyone wants it to be.

But the version that lives in my head is gay as all get-out.

So it definitely isn't just once; and yeah sometimes it's drunkenly, but it doesn't need to be. (First couple times probably were though. Not like they talked things out.)

By the end of the portal era they're having conversations like,

"What are they talking about?" Oh you know, normal overlord-henchman stuff. If Bill's gonna be god/owner/party host of the universe and Ford's gonna do all the boring work of ruling, then OBVIOUSLY they need to indicate to the broader multiverse that if you try to harm Ford you'll invoke the wrath of Bill Cipher.

So once Weirdmageddon overtakes the first galaxy, they're gonna... you know, do a little ceremony thing... for political purposes... Bill thinks sticking his name in Ford's name would help make it clearer that this one's under his protection...

But it's not a big deal, don't make a big deal out of it, they're being sooo chill about it. It's not even legally binding, there's not a jurisdiction in existence that would acknowledge a marriage between Bill Cipher and some random alien from a dimension with no diplomatic ties to the broader multiverse.

For the honeymoon they're throwing their enemies in a supermassive black hole. They're starting with Time Baby and the West Coast Tech admissions department.

(After Bill's death Ford unofficially changes his middle name to "Cipher" anyway.)
