I already said before that Bill Cipher is literally the worst character to get emotionally invested in but it's true. Like oh yeah I could cry over this silly cartoon triangle. Why? Oh let me just explain Journal 3 lore and tidbits from the Reddit AMA that reference a victorian novela that gives us the best picture of what his past and home dimension was like and also this secret poem that only exists in a spin off book thats otherwise non-canon and goes into how he regrets some of his actions and could potentially become better and also let me explain how all of this recontextualizes all these scenes from the show and his relationship with Ford. Btw all the horrible shit he did only fuels the fire like oil.
the thing i love about bill being a flatlander is that he so clearly hates the fact that he is one but he’s also just as clearly still so attached to his dimension, even if he doesn’t realize it. i love that he falls back on being an equilateral salesman in so many of his interactions, that his role in flatland still shapes him so much. i love that he grays out the world when he appears, that he is still associated with monochrome. i love that he builds his physical form over a flat, gray version of himself. i love that he kept kryptos around, even though the guy seems to be from, at the very least, a dimension very similar to bill’s, if not literally being from bill’s home dimension. i love that even the way he dresses could be seen as cultural carryovers from growing up in a victorian environment. i love that he’s sensitive about people asking if his sides are even. i love that, when he finally gets a shot at a physical form, he basically makes himself a spacelander. i love that he has tried so hard to escape the repressive, oppressive society he grew up in, and that it still seeps through so obviously to anyone who knows even the slightest bit about him
Bill Cipher's like "I was oppressed and restrained in my dimension so now I'll do whatever I want without considering the well-being of anyone around me!" girl you are perpetuating the cycle of cruelty 😭
I see great potential in this scene 💕
bill cipher is so funny to because if you have even a little bit of knowledge of flatland or even sort of read into what he says about his home dimension he's like pure meow meow material but he's such lil bitch it doesn't even matter. like, most flatland truthers i've seen, no matter what their headcanons about bill's upbringing and how he functioned in flatland, come to the same conclusion of "what a mess of a person" which is so funny. we're just watching this awful immortal victorian man's cringe compilation. he sucks so bad it captivates me

I just felt the need to compile these, I've been unwell about them if you couldn't tell.
Last night I had a dream that I built a robot and I was being interviewed about it and the interviewer was like “Can you fuck it?” and I smugly answered “What kind of fool would make a robot that you can’t fuck?”
I want him
