A fantastic artist on tumblr drew me some storyboards for Introverted, and they're awesome! She drew the scene in Just a Scratch where Wendy discovers Bipper's fork wounds, and the bit in The Fighter where Stan watches over poor Dipper. I will post the link on my profile page, if you want to see them. Thank you so much, actaeono! (Follow actaeono on tumblr while you're at it because she's great)

From Zeena Hero (Guest): "These fanfictions are really good! May I make a request? You know how Bill Cipher said it had been a long time since he had inhabited a body? Well do you think you could writ a fanfic about who he inhabited or what Bill did being in a human body for the first time? I was wondering if he inhabited someone we already know from the story or a missing character or something. Thanks!"

Thank you! I'd love to write about Bill possessing people. To be honest, I think it was either the author or possibly McGucket that got possessed by the triangle guy so I'm going to go with poor Fiddleford for this one. (I'm so mean to him in all of my one-shots, poor soul)

Lessons in Anatomy

This had to be one of the stupidest mistakes the inventor had ever made. There was no rational explanation for what he had done, and now he was floating in the air, gripping his hair in tight fists as he watched a demon - not only that, but a demon who was possessing his body - wander over to the controls desk near the portal.

"I - I don't understand! Why would you do this? The author trusts you!"

Bill cackled and snapped his gaze towards the ghost-like spirit of the body he had stolen. "Let me give you a bit of a head's-up, McGucket: the author is blind! He can't tell who is friend or foe anymore. Besides, I'm a master of the mind. Do you really think I wouldn't know how to trick people?"

Fiddleford groaned to himself. When he had made the deal with the demon, hoping it would help the author come to his senses and see that this project was becoming an obsession, he definitely hadn't anticipated this.

"Don't get upset! Hey, watch this!"

The man reluctantly looked over at the possessed body and gaped at how at least three newly sharpened pencils were embedded in his forearm about three millimeters deep. He shuddered and felt the urge to vomit when he spotted pearls of blood forming by the wounds.

"What have you done?!"

Bill hummed a bit under his breath before responding, inspecting his new wounds. "Look at how weird this is! Pain is hilarious! Is this what you humans do when you're bored?"

"Why - ? No!"

"Pity." Bill shrugged and removed one of the pencils with no hesitation or gentleness displayed. "I thought you would have, considering how much fun it is."

"How is pain funny to you?" demanded Fiddleford, floating closer with his arms crossed over his chest.

The demon pulled out the second pencil, smirking at the sight of blood on the tip. "I don't know - it just is!"

This response didn't make the man feel any better about his current situation. He groaned aloud and glanced at the controls as Bill continued to dig out the last pencil in his arm. He prayed that the author would return quickly so he could fix this problem for the inventor (and hopefully find a way to destroy the trickster demon).

"OOH! Hey, McGucket!" The man shut his eyes tightly, wishing he were anywhere else but here. "How much pain do you think I'd be in if I jumped down the elevator shaft?"

"Um, a lot..." Bill's words sank in moments later and he squeaked out a cry of indignation and fright once he spotted the former triangle hurrying toward the elevator. Oh, no.

The author definitely needed to return to the house sooner rather than later.

Sorry it's short. I hope you like it still!
