Like the other AU's in the "Potionate" series, this is another way things could have gone wrong at the diner on the day of the Woodstick festival. What if the extra fries thrown out at the diner fell into the wrong hands? All characters belong to Alex Hirsch, not me. Has Gideon/Sev'ral Timez, Mabel/Gideon, and others.

Potion Revenge

Chapter 1 – Trash Diving

The fugitive approached the trash cans at the back of Greasy's Diner at dusk, looking to scrounge something to eat. Escaping from prison was hard, hungry work. He was the only one who had been small enough to squeeze through the last part of the tunnel and get away before it was discovered.

But two young men were there before him, heads down in one of the trash cans.

"Beat it, y'all," said the escaped felon. "I want some of that grub."

The two stuck up their heads and looked at him with wild eyes. Each had a few chili fries with pink sauce sticking out of their mouths.

For an instant it looked like they were about to flee, but something changed their minds. They both ran to him and hugged him, simultaneously kissing his hair with their pink-ringed lips.

"Yo! You're our guy, guy," said the one with an open vest and pink fingerless gloves.

"Twenty-thirteen!" said the other, who looked nearly identical but who wore a long-sleeved white shirt.

"Yaah! Not my hair!" said the felon. "All right, I'll leave. I won't be botherin' y'all..." His voice trailed off as he looked at them with new eyes.

"Please don't go," said the first young man.

"We love you, dog," said the second.

"My, my, aren't you a handsome pair! Delightful! My name is Gideon Gleeful."

"Yo, I'm Creggy G.," said the one with fingerless gloves.

"And I'm Greggy C.," said the one in the long-sleeved shirt.

"Delighted to meet you," said Gideon. "Are you twins?"

"We're clones, dog," said Creggy G. "There used to be five of us, but we've lost three. Deep Chris went into the deep woods and never came back, Leggy P. was carried off by wolves, and Chubby Z. got real sick from rotten food and one morning he just didn't get up."

"It's not all a frolic, living like woodland creatures," said Greggy C. "Like, we're starving most of the time, and we're cold at night."

"You boys had better stick with me from now on," said Gideon. "I'll take care of y'all, so you won't be cold any more."

"Thank you, Gideon dog," said Greggy C.

"We love you, Gideon guy," said Creggy G.

"How did you fellows end up lost in the woods, anyway?" asked Gideon. "You look like rock stars, not homeless bums."

"We were a boy band, until Mabel girl set us free," said Greggy C. "We liked that, except she didn't tell us that 'free' meant starving to death."

"Mabel? Mabel Pines let you loose in the woods to die?" said Gideon. "My oh my... it seems we have a common foe."

"You know Mabel dog?" asked Creggy G.

"I was obsessed with Mabel, and it led to my downfall," said Gideon. "Now that I have you two I don't need her any more, but I'd still dearly love to get revenge on her, her brother, and her great-uncle, Stanford Pines."

"I'm not sure what 'revenge' means, but if you want to do it then it must be good," said Creggy G.

"What shall we do now?" asked Greggy C.

"I need to find a baggie to collect some of those fries you were eating," said Gideon.

"I want to eat the rest right now," said Creggy G. "They taste extra good with that pink sauce on them."

"No, don't eat them," said Gideon. "I think there's something peculiar about them. Something made you two irresistible to me. I think it may be that pink sauce."

"You think maybe the sauce made us love you too, Gideon guy?" asked Greggy C.

"I think so," said Gideon. "And if it can make anyone fall in love with anyone, it's the perfect instrument for my revenge."

"What about getting some more food?" asked Creggy G. "Can we eat the rest of the garbage?"

"Forget the trash," said Gideon. "You're big, strong guys. I'll teach you how to mug people and steal their money."

"Yo, what good is that?" asked Creggy G. "We can't eat money."

"Money can be exchanged for goods and services," said Gideon. "Goods include tasty food, like ice cream."

"Wow, who knew?" said Creggy G. "You're aight, Gideon dog."

"Why, thank you," said Gideon. "I think..."
