He's been long expected by some, but the authorities are going to try to kill him from the moment he steps into the world. If this holds up, he will speak mostly in riddles in his attempts to simplify things for Dipper. He and the Pines will stay in hiding for a short time until the government risk has subsided, then they will come out. Eventually, the author will sacrifice himself for his family, but not before promising to return. When he does, at the end of the series, he and the other characters involved will fulfill the prophecy of Bill Cipher's wheel. At that point the identity of the true villain of Gravity Falls will become clear, and that enemy will be vanquished for good. Nice. Hirsch has said that he's religiously agnostic (I guess a cross between Christian and Jew idk) or something, though.
