The plate in Ford's skull is powerful. Absurdly so. But that power mostly comes from how specific it is.

Every ward and symbol etched into it, every enchantment, every single aspect of its design down to the molecular structure of whatever alien metal it's made of, it's all meant to ward off Bill's influence. To disrupt a deal giving Bill full and unconditional access to Ford's mind and body.

It's powerful to the point that even though it's designed to only keep Bill out of his head, it also happens to keep out most other types of mental influence. Even the ones that can get past the plate are usually so weak from the effort that by the time they reach Ford's mind he can fight them off on his own.

And it still doesn't keep Bill out of Ford's dreams, because the world of dreams isn't a place you can reach from within the safety of your own skull.

#ford pines #gravity falls #as a side note on at least one occasion something has tried to crush fords skull only to be foiled by the plate #wouldnt be much good if bill could just get someone to bend the metal and render all that power useless bc a symbol is .1mm off now would i #shits sturdy
