?: POV
"Whew!" the girl sighed, wiping her forehead. It had taken a lot of work but she was happy with how it had turned out.
it was a medium-sized room with a large screen on one wall, and comfortable couches and chairs spread out around the viewing area, with a few tables added in incase any one wanted snacks-
or to put their feet on the table. Off to the side were 2 doors leading to somewhere, but that's a story for a different time. "Ok, I think we're ready!" she said with a smile, she snapped her-
fingers and disappeared.
(Stanford just arrived through the portal)
"After all these long years of waiting, you're actually here! Brother!" Stanford was just about to punch his brother in the face, when a bright flash of light surrounded him and all the other people in the room. Unknown to those in the underground room, other people were also caught in the light, all of them disappearing without a trace.
"AHH!" everyone fell together in a big pile with Soos and Waddles being on top of everyone else. "Dude, get off me!" "Uggh oooow, Dipper get off-" "I'm-oof- trying Mabel, Soos!-"
Soos rolled off everyone and landed on his back with Waddles being sent away a little by the force. Everyone untangled themselves from the mess.
"Where are we?" Pacifica asked, everyone took a few moments to look around, "It looks like-" Stan got cut off by Mabel-"A movie theater!" She excitedly jumped around the room, looking at the chairs and tables set up. "Aww, but we're missing popcorn." she sat down on one of the chairs in disappointment.
"Uhm, well yes, it does appear to be a movie theater, but the chairs aren't normal, unless movie theaters have changed since I've been in this dimension."
"Hello, welcome everyone!" They all jumped at a voice seemingly coming from nowhere, "I know that you are probably all confused, but I only brought you here to show you the past, present and future of you all." most looked excited by this news, while others, Ford, Stan, Dipper and Fiddleford, looked weary.
"And what is the price for all of this?" Ford asked, he had been around multiple dimensions for the past 30 years, very rarely did information like this come for free.
"The only price this will cost is that when you go back to your time, you will forget all of what happened here until the end of this summer."
"What about eatin' an' sleepin' huh? I don't see any food around here and no way I can sleep on the couch." Stan said crossing his arms, trying to stare down a person he couldn't see.
"There's no need to worry about that, the doors to the right of you lead to the bedrooms, and the kitchen respectively." Most were satisfied by then, but Ford had another question.
"And what if we don't want to watch all of this?" there was a moment of silence, "Well, I don't think that really matters, considering I'm not letting you out until you all watch it."
Everyone felt a shiver at that, they were caught up in how fun it all sounded, but they were trapped, kidnapped and held who knows where by a seemingly omnipotent being.
"Don't worry about things happening without you, time has paused where you left, and won't restart until you return. Now, if you want something to eat or drink, please go get what you want, the first episode will be begging shortly."
Everyone stood there there for a few,trying to comprehend the situation, unsurprisingly Mabel was the fist to snap out of it, "Dibs on all the Sno-Caps!" she yelled as she legged it into the other room. "Yo, wait for me dawg!" Soos ran after her, everyone else slowly followed behind, even the ones who didn't want snacks were going to check out what was going to be available.
It was overwhelming, honestly. There was a see through glass refrigerator holding drinks, meats, ice creams, cakes, pretty much anything that would need put in a fridge or freezer.
Right next to the refrigerator, there was a tabel filled with all sorts of candys and chips, Mabel was already hoarding most of the Sno-Caps in her sweater with Wendy and Soos trying to take some and Mabel fighting them off, "Waddles defend me!" she yelled while running away from the two. The pig just stayed where he was already sitting in the other room.
and that by itself would be enough to overwhelm most of them, but food wasn't the only thing in here.
there were a few dozen notebooks on another table opposite of the table with the snacks, on top of the stack of notebooks was a letter, it read "Please feel free to use these to write anything you see in the show, you will get them back in your world once you remember~".
Next to the books were also a few dozen pens, for some reason there were more pens than books, but none of them could really see the reason. Ford immediately grabbed a notebook and a couple of pens, he didn't know if there would be any intermissions between the "Episodes" or not, best not to run out. Dipper also grabbed a notebook, grabbing about five of the pens-
Hopefully he wouldn't need more than 1 or 2 but with his habit, he never knew. He just hoped that he didn't do anything embarrassing in front of the auth- He nearly jumped with the sudden realization, He was standing right next to the Author! The Author of the journals! He was about to hyperventilate when Mabel came and pulled him by the arm.
"Stop nerding out nerd!" she said as she pulled him to the couch that Waddles was already sitting on. "I have decided that me and you will have our own couch! Twin couch, Twin couch!"
she had one leg one the back of the couch with one legging standing on a cushion, holding Waddles in the air as she chanted.
"Okay, okay I get it! Sit down!" he said as she jumped up one time and fell down. The Others had already found their seating while the two had been talking.
Wendy and Soos sat on a couch together, sharing a bowl of popcorn.
Pacifica, Gideon and Robbie also sat down on a couch together, it was weird for them, but all the other couches were taken. And they weren't moving.
the only ones to grab chairs had been Ford, Stan and Fiddleford, with Stan and Stanfords on opposite sides of the room, and Fiddle for sitting next to Stan.
"Ok everyone!" they all jumped again as the unknown voice spoke again, "before we start, not everyone here knows each other, so go ahead and say your names, first and last please!"
"I'm Mabel Pines! And this is my dorky brother Dipper!" she said slinging an arm over Dipper, "And this is the magnificent Waddles!" she held him in the air like the lion king movie.
"I'm Pacifica NorthWest, anyone who doesn't know me needs to get a life." she said looking at her nails. Dipper rolled his eyes, oh well, people don't change after night.
"I'm Gideon Gleeful, the one and only child psychic!" he said widening his eyes to make him look cuter, sure almost everyone in this room knew about him spying on the town, but he saw at least one knew person who didn't know.
practically everyone rolled their eyes at that. "Ugh, I'm Robbie Valentino." That was all the moody teen said.
"I'm Wendy Corduroy!" She said with a smile and hand gun. "Yo what's up dawgs, my name's Soos." Soos said waving his hand.
"I'm Fiddleford Mcgucket!" He spat into a spittoon that came out of nowhere. Ford head snapped to the man, was it really the same person that he knew all those years ago?
"Stanley Pines." "And I am Stanford Pines." everyone in the room looked at the two in comparison, yep, they were twins alright.
"Ok! Now that introductions are over, let us watch the first episode!"
