Bill had come back a year ago. He was still the same bill cipher but more human. Ford had found him and decided to try and help the demon. Bill had been put in school since his human body was only 13 and he hated it. He would constantly get in trouble, ford was never happy about this. 
“Why can't you just be normal!” ford yelled. It was a Friday night, Bill had to be picked up from school because he'd done something again. And now they were arguing. 
“Because i'm not normal!” Bill yelled back. Stating the obvious, he was still a demon. 
“Well you should try and change!” ford yelled, bills eyes darkened,
“I am, I'm trying so hard to change but I can't, I'm a demon! I can't just stop being me!” he yelled, tears rimmed his eyes. 
“You should!” ford yelled back. He then realized he'd gone too far but it was too late, Bill ran out of the room. Ford decided to let Bill cool down before he went to talk to him. 
An hour later Ford went up to talk to bill. He knocked on the door to the room he'd given the demon
“Can i come in?” ford questioned, just like every time they'd had a fight. They usually made up, 
“No! Go away!” bill showed back. Ford was taken back, 
“Bill im sorry, i didn-” he was cut off by bill shouting 
“Just go away sixter!” 
Ford walked away, he'd try again tomorrow. When Bill came out of his room. 
But Bill never came out of his room, well not when ford was around, at night Bill had gone and gotten a load of food from the kitchen and taken it to his room. He only came out of his room on monday, for school. 
Ford was shocked when he didn't get any phone calls from the school, he offered to take Bill out to do something but Bill said no. ford noticed a huge change in bill, he barely talked and never left the house, where as before he usually was out for most of the weekend whether it was in the forest or with his friends he was out. He never did his homework, only when ford forced him to and never studied.
But Ford wasn't complaining, his grades had gone up a lot. 
It was a whole month later when he was called into school. It was 11
“Mr pines, we think that there's something wrong with Bill. he doesn't talk- at all, and doesn't even interact with the other kids” the teacher told ford.  
“Realy?” Ford asked, Bill usually was really annoying at school and hassled kids all the time and answered the teacher back. 
“I think you should talk to him, mabey sign him up to some clubs for him to make friends and interact with kids,” the teacher said. 
“I'll talk to him tonight,” he told them 
“We also have reason to believe he's being bullied by pacifica northwest and a few of her friends” the teacher said. 
“Really? I thought the northwest girl was nice now?” he asked. 
“She never was, she was only like that so that her family could get more money” the teacher expanded. 
“I'll have someone to talk to, my niece and nephew were friends with her before they left, I'll call them up,” he told them before he left. 
When Ford got back to the shack he went to Bill's room, the room was completely different. 
The walls were no longer yellow, but were a light blue. And there were a bunch of books, Bill had put them under the bed when Ford had gotten them for him. They lay all over the floor and on a bookshelf. All the weird things were gone, and replaced with normal stuff. There was no bill like in the room anymore. 
Ford decided that he needed dipper and mabel help with this, he had no idea what had happened to bill. 
He phoned Dipper and he picked up. 
“Hey grunkle ford!” he said happily 
“Dipper, can you get your sister and put me on speaker? I need to talk to you both,” he asked dipper. 
“Of course” Dipper said. “Mabel! Grunkle ford wants to talk to us!” he yelled, Mabel came up to the room. 
“Hello grunkle ford, how are you? What did you want to talk to us about?” Mabel fired questions at ford. 
“Hello to you to mabel, this is serious” he told them “bill’s back and-” before he could say more dipper burst out 
“Bills back! Since when?!” he asked hurriedly. 
“Calm down dipper, i've got everything under control” he told him. “Bills been back for about a year, and were having a problem with him” 
“What do you mean?” Mabel asked. 
“Well, we had a fight about a month ago. I went too far and told him that he should not be him, and well he took that seriously. He doesn't even talk anymore!” ford said worriedly. 
“Isn't that a good thing?” dipper asked. 
“Well he's a human now, and he well… changed and doesn't want to kill us anymore” he explained. “He used to get in trouble at school but according to the school he doesn't even try to talk to anyone.” ford told them. “The school also think that the northwest girl is bullying him” he told them 
“Pacifica? Raely?” mabel and dipper asked. 
“Will you come over and help us out?” he asked 
“Of course we’ll come over! We’ll come next week!” Mabel said excitedly. 
“Yes, we’ll come,” dipper said. 

The next week dipper and Mabel came up to gravity falls. Ford had already told bill. 
“Ok” was the only thing he said before going back to his room. 
“Bill come down! The twins want to see you!” ford shouted. Bill came out of his room. He was wearing a blue hoodie and black jeans. 
“It's nice to see you again, Bill, now that you're not trying to start the end of the world,” Mabel said. Dipper just stared at bill. 
Bill only nodded. 
“So what have you been doing?” dipper asked. He shrugged 
“Nothing much, school” he told them. 
“Can you show me your room? I bet you have weird stuff there! I want to see them!” Mabel asked happily. 
“You want to see my room?” he asked shyly. “Of course” he said, walking up the stairs. Mabel followed him. 
The room was more a nerd room then a bill room. 
“Wow” Mabel said, it was a lot worse than Ford said. 
“I know it's not nice,” he mumbled. Playing with one of the books. 
“No, it's nice.” she admitted “i like the blue” she told him. He smiled slightly. 
Dipper and Mabel stayed in the room next to bill. 
Dipper couldn't sleep because of how Bill acted, it was like the complete opposite of the bill cipher he'd known a year ago. On his way back from the bathroom he heard someone crying. It was bill. 
He went into bills room, quietly. 
“Bill are you ok?” he asked. Dipper sat on Bill's bed.
“F-fine” Bill muttered. 
“Bill you're not fine, you haven't even called us our nicknames or said anything bill like'' Dipper says, to be honest he did like the nickname that bill had given him. 
“Ford said I wasn't allowed to,” he says, sitting up. 
“What?” Dipper thought back to what Ford had told him about Bill and realized that he was talking about the fight. 
“Bill, ford didn't mean it. He just wanted you to stop getting in trouble at school” dipper informed him. 
“Well he was happy when i stopped being… me” he said. Mabel walked into the room. 
“What's going on?” she whispered, rubbing her eyes. 
“Mabel, can you tell Bill that he's allowed to be himself.” dipper asks her. 
“You are allowed to be yourself, it doesn't matter what other people say or think about you. You don't have to change for other people” Mabel tells him. 
“But don't try and kill us” dipper jokes. Bill laughfs so do the twins.
