Summary
Sebastian has never given two thoughts to the writer who lives on the beach. He probably hasn’t said more than five words to him the entire time the man has lived in Pelican Town.
Elliott needs a muse. He’s sought a simple, impoverished life hoping to spark creativity. Now running out of his novel’s advance and time to get it to the publisher, he doesn’t know if he’s got what it takes to hack it.
On a cold, rainy night in early spring, two lost souls accidentally touch. What happens next is something neither expected.

Summary
Plagued with horrid nightmares, visions and more, Dipper Pines spent most of his childhood being ruthlessly haunted by a cruel demon by the name of Bill Cipher. Of course, no one was ever willing to hear him out, and nobody believed him. Known as the school nut as a result, the other boys didn't take kindly to him and half of that childhood was spent hiding bruises and cuts from scuffles he lost from his worrisome sister.
Eight years later, the year is 1951. Dipper is 25 and hasn't seen the demon since high school. Having gotten some sort of a grip on his psychosis, he's now a published author of a supernatural encyclopedia and is found escaping his old home on a train to find inspiration for his new book idea.
Fate works in mysterious ways, and inspiration seems to find him first.

Summary

Summary
Some called him a rat. Others, the God of Gold. And some... Well, they were either too kind, or too thankful. God bless them all, wherever they may be. But this was uncharted territory and all business. And business meant he'd be called Captain Cipher.
He gazed about the old musk of the town, wooden and brick shops and worn glass. Children riddled the streets, hoodlums at few corners and finely dressed American ladies followed along their gentlemen, who smoked their fancy cigarettes and scoffed at the sight of the Captain.
And quite the sight he was, too..

Summary
It was at the beginning of summer 1732 however, that Captain Pines overheard the Tent of Telepathy's deck cadet rant about lost treasure in Mindscape Bay. The boy talked and talked and honestly, Pines had long since tuned him out – lost treasure, yeah right! But when he heard the word 'siren' being spoken, he immediately perked up. When pressed, the boy, a snot-nosed little brat in Stan's humble opinion, started to wax a grand tale about beautiful mermaids, gold beyond imagination and close calls with death. The Captain promptly told him to shut up. He walked out of the inn that night with a new expedition in mind and a smile on his face.
AKA the merman!AU nobody asked for, wherein Bill is a siren, everybody else is a pirate and Dipper is somehow (maybe) magical.
