Actually, I meant your characters specifically. . . . Should have been a bit more clear on that.

A fan fiction isn't a terrible idea if you're mixing things up, as you can also allow a different take on the story, which might help inspire the original. In terms of the first, I would imagine it is more likely that they would take place within the same dimension (easier to explain). As you said, though, that's definitely something that falls more into the fan fiction category. In terms of the second, I think a more appropriate storyline would focus solely on Stanford while he was stuck for all of those years across the dimensions. Because of his massive travels, many of which will forever remain uncatalogued barring what has been officially published in Journal 3 (I can't wait to get my hands on the Deluxe Edition! It's designed to be completely authentic to the show!). Therefore, focusing on him only allows for an easier explanation for why he's there, but limits the number of characters you get to use. If you wanted to include Dipper and Mabel, I would adjust that story time-wise so that it occurs further in the future, but not too far. Maybe ten years or so; enough that Dipper and Mabel are grown up and doing whatever, but young enough that it's still reasonable to include the Pines twins!
