I love how the more disturbing moments in Gravity Falls involve a twisted version of Dipper and his reflection.  It really does speak of how the biggest fears one can have usually have to do with oneself.  I don’t think Dipper’s the only one whose afraid of being frozen in place, to never grow as a person or strive to be something more. Or even worse, watching yourself become a twisted, distorted version of the person you used to be. To look into the mirror one day and realize you don’t recognize the stranger staring back at you.

I love the parallelism between these two scenes. Also, are we not gonna talk about the various hints pointing to Dip’s impending doom?

I mean it started w/ Bill’s messages in Rumbles Revenge, particularly, “What comes up must come down.” followed by “Dipper is playing with fire.” Then, we get the zombie episode where Dipper says it’s all his fault that they’re all in danger. That he was too curious and now they were all paying for it. Then the foreshadowing by that shapeshifter in the above gif. And I’m pretty sure there are more that I forgot. But anyway, geez dippy you in deep shit.
