History Repeats Itself (or Do We Just Keep On Making The Same Mistakes?)

Iruka coughed. “No,” he said. The food had gone the wrong way.

“Oh.” Naruto always held his ramen like someone was going to take it from him. “Okay.”

“Naruto,” Iruka said. “I got this old thing way before then. I promise.”

“Okay.” Naruto stirred the broth, chasing a stray noodle. “I always wondered, is all. If it was me, I mean. The Nine Tails.”

“It wasn’t.” Iruka put down his chopsticks. He licked his lips, and then dabbed himself with a napkin. “It was, um. Mizuki.”

Naruto’s eyebrows furled. “Who?”

Stan’s happy to play the fool if it’ll make Ford smile.

Grunkle Stan an’ Ford traveling the world by boat, sending snailmail postcards and photos to the kids.

Evil Stan’s memories of Before are a bit of a mess -- Bill surely had a hand in this. He needed Stan to hate Ford to the last atom of his being, so I wouldn’t be surprised if he inserted false memories or simply suppressed what good ones he had to twist Stan’s innate loyalty to his side.

Now, Evil Stan is not stupid. He knows Bill has messed with him, so sometimes he can’t help the intrusive thought: What was his original Ford like? He’s seen so many of them die that he can’t remember what was unique about his own.

He is, essentially, an unreliable narrator, even to himself.

Sequel to this comic!

(Sorry I ended up not having more Dipper and Mabel talking to the younger Stans, I drew this without a sketch or prepared dialogue – directly to inks with a ‘let’s see where we end up’ attitude XDD it was fun! And now I can draw Dipper and Mabel fairly well, yay!)

Bonus:

My headcanon for Dende :) I figured his road to godhood was parallel and opposite to that of Kami’s – a sort of yin-yang motif, if you will.

“I’m sorry if it hurts Chi-Chi and Gohan, but please don’t try and resurrect me. Besides, Gohan’s a lot better person than I was…”

I think about this line a lot. It shows a lot of self awareness from Goku, y'know?
