The how-to guide on how to properly act like Bill Cipher!

(one of my friends brought his up with me today, so I thought "Why the hell not just make it a post?" so here we are. This is how I am able to get into character. Enjoy~)

Are you tired of not being able to channel your inner Bill Cipher? Feel like your roleplays just don't have that sweet evil Dorito vibe? Cosplays lacking that evil transdimensional being of pure energy's bloodlust? Well, not anymore! I have three easy steps that anyone - from Shmebulock to Sixer, Mabel to Stan, and Wendy to Toby - can follow without ending up stuck in the time-space continuum!

HOW'S ABOUT WE MAKE A DEAL? YOU CAN TAKE A STEP INTO MY THOUGHT PROCESS - SEE WHAT IT'S REALLY LIKE TO BE A DEMON, AND IN RETURN, YOU HELP ME OUT WITH A LITTLE.... SIDE PROJECT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON?" If you didn't think that... Well, you're screwed.

pretty easily. Why? Frick if I know. But he's not just a train-wreck of a demon - he's a bipolar train-wreck. As such, you MUST think of all emotions ×10. Happy? No! You've just won the lottery! The world! Show it off, use big movements and a loud, higher pitch voice! Oh, shit! Ford's back and he just ripped out you're eye! Do you

Think about the person you hate the most. For me, it's this kid in my Advanced Robotics class. I got partnered with him because my bro was moved to a different period of the day. As such..... Mike (thats his new name) and I got stuck together. He talks down on me, never listens to what I have to say (even when I'm CLEARLY right) and whenever I make a small mistake in the programming/building, he rubs it in my face. So, I let out my inner Bill Cipher, and decked him in the face. Use these emotions! Take them to the extreme! Pissed off? What would Bill do? "HAHAHA, I WOULD KILL THEM IN THE MOST PAINFUL WAY POSSIBLE!" Happy? "SCREW THAT, PAIN IS THE ONLY GAIN!" Become your inner demon! Let the Cipher inside you run free!

extremes. He's extremely emotional, his senses are dialed to 20, and he's a complete nutjob. But, for some reason, this fandom loves that. So take that love you have for this immortal pain-in-the-crack Dorito and use it to fuel his movements. What Dipper closer to you? Don't do it the easy way of "and Bill pulled Pine Tree closer to himself"! Take it a step farther - "Bill extended his arm past normal human movement, the now extended limb easily reaching across the five-foot distance that separated them. The arm (if it could even be called that anymore) shoved Dipper from behind, causing the boy to stumble closer to the dream demon". Bill's enjoying human food? Screw normal human mouths, have him eat it with his hand just to creep Stan out! Or, hell, have Bill peel back the layers of skin, muscle and fat and place that steak right in his intestines! Bill takes everything to the extreme. He doesn't do "normal" - and don't you forget it!

(Notes: this took about 30 minutes to type up. This is an exercise I do to help me get in character before I write or cosplay someone. I have pages and pages of me just responding to stupid questions as a character in order for me to get a feel for them. I definitely recommend this to any new cosplayers/roleplayers/artists/writers! It's a great way to understand a character. The art ist not mine, nor is the background. It's just something I found on Pinterest, I think it's a picture of the sky? I could be wrong, idk.

Anyways, I really hope this helps you guys out a little bit! )
