...III...
Dipper looks to his shaking sister as he tries to comfort her, "I just..I just think it would be a good opportunity for me." He explained.
Mable sniffed, "W-what about me?" Sobbed Mable.
Now in a different universe, what happens next would've lead to a chain of events which would've seen the apocalypse started, a town ruined, Dipper giving up his 'fantasy-
BZZZT!
"For the love of...he'd be spending time doing what he loves, surrounded by friends who care about him(unlike at home where he has no friends), with an adult that actually supports his dreams(unlike Mable who just seems to mock and ridicule his dreams despite constant evidence that the supernatural is real) with who's help he can get a bright future... How is that 'living in a fantasy?' Sounds like a dream job to me! Seriously, someone explain that to me. Make me understand!" Takes a deep breath...and eats an alternate Mable's head off a pike. "Okay, rant over. We now return you to our original story already in progress!"
BZZZT!
-of living in Gravity Falls with his Grunkle Ford as an Apprentice for the sister who traded him in for a 'Yes-brother' named Dippy Fresh, and Mable getting away scot-free with nearly murdering the world and rewarded with her brother continuing their enabler/Co-dependent relationship...
...Why people consider that a happy ending is beyond me..."
"Thankfully, this is NOT THAT universe!" Shouts Slenderman as he types on his typewriter and retcons the boy a dang spine for once!
...
Suddenly filled with rage and determination, Dipper glared at his sibling. "WHAT ABOUT YOU MABLE!?" He snaps irritably.
Mable eye's whip to him surprised by this outburst, "I- Dipp?"
"throughout the summer I've done nothing but sacrifice for you! And for the first time I'm finally doing something that makes ME happy! That'll make sure that I have a future! WHY CAN'T YOU JUST BE HAPPY FOR ME FOR ONCE!?"
Mable was aghast, "Dipper, why can't we just be happy together-
Dipper snorted, "HA! that's a good one! You've been nothing but annoying burden!"
Mable gaped, hurt. But Dipper wasn't done.
He ticked off his fingers-
"You choose a PIG that she knew for a day over Wendy's-a friend she'd known for WEEKS- health!"
"And not too soon after me SACRIFICINIG MY CHANCES WITH WENDY AND ALLOWING HER TO BE INJURED you have to nerve to mock- MOCK! Me for my height- Something you KNEW I was sensetive about...frack your 'you've always been better at everything else' excuse, I SHOULD'VE PUNCHED YOU IN THE FACE FOR THAT YOU UNGRATEFUL, SPOILED BRAT! I SHOULD'VE LET MA AND PA GHOST KILL YOU!"
Mable gasped!
But Dipper wasn't done-
And then you nearly got me and Wendy killed in the bunker because she couldn't but out of my private life and couldn't take Dipper seriously to save my life! I admit, I should've just told Wendy the truth, but you have to take your half of the blame! If the fact that they were in creepy bunker straight from a horror movie wasn't a tip off that you needed to take things seriously in your life, THEN THE SCREAMING METAL DEATH TRAP THAT NEARLY KILLED THEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN!" He screamed.
Mable finally rallied behind the tears, "B-but Dipper! I came through for you during the puppet show-
"First of all, that really only cancels out you breaking all your promises to me and getting us in that situation in the first place." Interrupted Dipper firmly. "And any good will you could've accumulated from that...you killed it during the unicorn fiasco!"
Mable blanched at that, "Wha- But Dipper, I got the hair-
"Yeah, AFTER you learned that 'princes' Celeste-whatever was a fraud! We needed that hair to protect ourselves from Bill, but you put your pride and you wish to be 'pure of heart' over everyone's safety! OVER YOUR FAMILY'S SAFETY!"
Dipper glared, "I know that Bill was going to throw me off the water tower for laughs! I know you know that too! Would it have killed you take a threat like that more seriously!?"
Mable twiddled her thumbs together... "I bought you a dozen ice cream sandwiches after that." She added weakly.
Dipper threw up his hands and head in mock jubilation, "Oh, Hallelujah our problems are solved! I got ice cream sandwiches! Hey, maybe when Bill is done using my spine as a jump rope he can eat them and maybe get some mild indigestion!" He said sarcastically.
Dipper glared at her, "This is it Mable...this is what I want to do with my life, I'm finally in place where I have FRIENDS, I'm finally in a place where I have people who will support me, For the first time ever...I'm truly happy-
"You were happy with me!" Snapped Mable.
Dipper frowned...but nodded, "Your right...I was...but now I've found happiness outside of you, it's time for me to live my own life, my own way, find my own happiness-
"Dang it Dipper your 12! Why you sounding so old-
"Maybe, I WANT to sound old!" Shouted Dipper annoyed, "I'm so sick and tired of being mocked, and punished for wanting to grow up 'too soon'- Well frack all of you! This Summer I fought Demons, monsters, robots, and elder gods! I'M MY OWN PERSON, THIS MAKES MY HAPPY, AND I'M GOING TO LIVE MY OWN LIFE!"
He glares at Mable, "Question is...are you going to be happy for me so that we can get back together in a year or so...or are you going to 'get stupid' and do what our Grunkles did and throw a fit and make sure we never speak again?"
Mable didn't say anything, she just cried, pushed past Dipper, reached for one of the bags on the floor-
(PAUSE)
"Let's flip the script a bit"
Slenderman(somehow) whistles 'Mal's theme' as he switches the bag's under a temporally-frozen Mable's fingers...and then slips a weird looking coin into hers...
(UNPAUSE)
An annoyed Dipper just shakes his head sadly as Mable leaves...despite his harsh words...he still loved Mable and had hoped he and Mable could've parted on better terms he reaches for his bag, double checks the rifts containment, brushes a tear from his eye...and heads down to Ford's lab...
...later...
Mable cautiously let Blendin into he house, "I'll take you to Grunkle Ford's lab, he might have what you need...you promise this'll make sure Summer lasts forever for me?" She asks pleadingly.
'Blendin' smirked, "Trust me my dear, your dream world is within your grasp."
Placated, Mable continues to lead him inside...
Never noticing the coin, 'blendin' had snatched from her bag and was fiddling with...
