AN: I would just like to say sorry that it took this long to publish, exams and moving house and a bunch of other stuff. But I did get this up and I apologise if this wasn't good or up to standards, but anyway if you do enjoy it don't be afraid to tell me.
Until next time,

The alarm clock buzzed throughout the room waking both the parents up as it was a normal school day and they needed to wake both themselves and the kids up. It was the kids' mothers turn to wake them up, and it was the fathers turn to make breakfast so as they both walked out of the room and to their designated areas. Their father made his way downstairs, still half groggy.
Upon making his way down to the last step he felt something soft and squishy making him jump back a little, he made his way back down and touched and squishy object again with his foot several times starting off lightly at first and every time he pressed down a little harder. This was taking so long that both his wife and daughter came down the stairs, and looked at him with a curious expression.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Mabel asked her eyebrows rising to full extent.
"There's something down here I don't know what it is though." Her father responded with, still pressing his foot down he then finally turned around to check if it was a cruel prank from his son.
"Hey where's Dipper?" he finally asked noticing that his son wasn't there to greet him with his freaky grin.
"I think I know what's going on here." Mabel's mother finally chipped in.
"Take your foot off the strange object and look at it and tell me what you find." She added, her arms crossed and her face smug.
"It's Dipper all right, but something's not quite right." Their father said making sure to get a close inspection of his son.
"Ok then, while you deal with this I'll just help get Mabel ready for school." Her mother said quickly leading Mabel to the kitchen and making sure they both avoided eye contact with Bipper.
"Dipper? Are you awake?" the father asked slightly kicking his son to provoke some kind of reaction.
"I'M AWAKE FATHER, IN FACT I'VE NEVER FELT SO AWAKE BEFORE." Bipper shouted back quickly pulling himself up from the fetal position he once held.
"So you just slept here all night?" The father asked looking up and down at Bipper before he responded.
"WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? I WOULD NEVER SLEEP ON THE FLOOR, I'M NOT AN IDIOT LIKE YOU THINK I AM, I KNOW WHAT A BED IS AND IF I WAS SLEEPING I WOULD BE IN IT." Bipper snapped back causing the father to snap out of his continuous eyeing and finally looked at Bipper in the face.
"But that would mean you didn't sleep at all." He responded back with, it was if he just snapped out of his groggy state and looked at the state his son was in.
His face pretty much stayed the same, expect for the big circles underneath his eyes making them look bigger and scarier than before, and the twitch that his eye got on occasion was now more prominent than yesterdays eye twitching.
"Dipper, I want you to go and take a shower then go to bed and get some sleep." The father instructed him.
"WHY?"
"Because you haven't taken a shower in several days and you didn't sleep at all last night well that's from what you told me anyway, but I can see that you're tired so can you please do what I asked?"
"WHY?"
"Because I said so."
"WHY?"
"Dipper can you stop wasting time and just do what I asked please!" The father huffed at him his face turning slightly red.
"OH! HAHA, TIME. YOU KNOW THAT'S FUNNY OF YOU TO MENTION IT." Bipper responded back with, never losing his eye contact with the father.
"And why is that?" The father asked back his look of curiosity growing by the second. "WELL I'LL TELL YOU A SECRET. MY TIME NEVER RUNS OUT." Bipper shouted back in the father's ear, faces inches away from each other.
"Look Dipper, I don't want to argue with you anymore, and I'm not in the mood for this new attitude of yours, so just do what I asked." The father asked rubbing his temples; he was clearly tired of everything that was happening around him.
"IS IT BAD THAT I FEEL AS THOUGH I'M BEING TREATED LIKE I'M AN IDIOT OR SOMETHING? CAUSE I CAN TELL YOU NOW YOU WISH YOU HAD MY KNOWLEDGE." Bipper shouted to the father as he ignored Bipper and walked into the kitchen, his movements sluggish and slow.
"YES BECAUSE WALKING AWAY WILL SOLVE EVERYTHING!" Bipper shouted to himself while walking through the house, trying to find the place of their body cleansing device.
This was easier said than done the house was fairly large, well for four measly skin puppets anyway.
"HOW MANY DOORS ARE HERE AND HOW COME IV'E NEVER NOTICED THEM BEFORE? WOW! I CAN BE REALLY DENSE IN A SKIN SACK."
Bipper told himself as he inspected the hallway upstairs and opened every door he could. And through his amazing powers of opening and closing doors he found what he perceived to be what he was told to find it looked like a fun little cleansing device, but for some reason it gave off a sinister vibe which made Bipper very sceptical of it almost never breaking eye contact with the device.
"YOU REALLY THINK YOU CAN SCARE ME HA! GOOD LUCK BUDDY BY THE END OF OUR ENCOUNTER THE TABLES WILL TURN… SHOOT SAID THAT WRONG I AM MOST CERTAINLY NOT SCARED OF YOU. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY TO THAT WISE GUY?" Bipper screamed at the nozzle of the shower making sure he sounded creepy enough to scare the device.
"YOU COULD AT LEAST TRY AND MAKE A RESPONSE YOU KNOW LIKE PINE TREE…" Bippers voice trailed off after realising once again that Pine Tree was nowhere to be seen.
"WAIT WHERE IS HE? I HAVEN'T SEEN HIM SINCE OUR LAST CONVERSATION, HE COULD BE ANYWHERE, AND WOULD YOU HAVE ANY IDEA TO WHERE HE IS?" Bipper asked the shower nozzle.
"YEAH, BEST NOT TO WORRY ABOUT HIM." He told the shower.
Besides what could the nerdy little kid do anyway? It's not like he could make his way back to Gravity Falls find a sock puppet the was never used in the Shooting Stars show, possess that and tell the other Pine twins about what was happening here, the thought was so stupid all it could do was make Bipper laugh as he continued to find out about the inner workings of human cleansing.
Time passed more slowly as Bipper let the disgusting liquid wash over his now human body, that humans actually thought was necessary for their survival he made it his task to never look down while he was cleaning himself it was already jarring enough looking at his strange fleshy hands he didn't exactly want to look at the rest of it. When he thought he was finally clean enough to avoid being nagged at for the 50th time in the last three days he grabbed the closest object to cover up the lower half of his human body quickly making his way to the Pine Trees slumber den, with the intention to use the Pine Trees near identical clothing to cover up his squishy human flesh.
And for once he succeeded in his task without anything negative happening to him, no mystery men taking him to their car, no waking up in mysterious rooms and being locked in them. It actually made Bipper quite proud of himself and the fact that he could perform a human task and have nothing bad happen to him. But before he could actually celebrate the fact he noticed that his human stomach was making strange noises, it felt like it was going to eat his other human insides, and through that he came to the conclusion that it wasn't a good sign.
So through genius thinking and concentrating noises the idea popped into his head he should ask the only skin puppets in the house and take their advice. This was going to be the first and last time he asked for help from anyone (expect for those other times but they really didn't count). So he made his way for the other skin puppets in the house with the sole purpose to stop the rumbling and pain from his human insides.
The same could not be said for Mabel she had eaten so much that morning she was convinced her sweater was more tight than usual, it didn't really help that she ate all that food in record breaking time. She was actually excited to head to school today sure Bipper was still there but she at least knew at school she wouldn't be tackled to the ground and choked by a crazy dream nacho. So she stood around waiting for her bus to arrive she checked the road several times just making sure that the bus was actually coming, Mabel did miss her fair share of morning busses after standing on the road several times and nearly getting run over by a car she heard the familiar sound of her bus relieved that it actually showed up.
Mabel waited for it to stop, it opened the door and she found a seat around the bus, she hopped in and looked out the window watching the world around her whizz pass, but before Mabel could get the chance to zone out reality reared its head as she heard a few whispers from the kids around her, she had to double check it one kid was definitely staring at her, she quickly checked her skirt to see if she had tucked it into her underpants but that wasn't the case. But if there was nothing strange about her then what was it? As she tried her hardest to ignore everyone around her she could feel someone staring at her, she checked around again and to her dread it was the same kid who was staring earlier. A part of her felt happy that it wasn't a Bipper stare the rest of her felt anger bubbling to the surface, but she couldn't do anything about it on the bus she would just have to take it then confront them about it when she got off. And that was terrifying; would she actually have to stick up for Bipper? The thought never crossed her mind; she thought the whole 'Bipper' thing was over. Were they even going to ask her about Bipper anyway? Never the less she was going to confront them no matter what problem.
When the bus arrived at the school Mabel practically pounced off her seat in order to catch the kid who was staring at her. She had somehow managed to avoid getting trampled from all the other kids scrambling to get off the bus, she finally saw the kid who was staring at her she decided that the best way to catch his attention was to shout at him.
"Hey! You!" Mabel pointed making sure her finger was strictly targeting the kid who was staring at her and no one else.
"Who? Me?" The kid asked his voice and face going into full dope mode.
"Yeah, you, what the heck were you doing on the bus why were you staring at me?" Mabel shouted her anger rising to the surface.
"Was it really that noticeable?" The kid asked his voice sounding a little less dopey than before.
"Yes it was, now that we have that out of the way why were you doing it?" She was about three seconds away from punching him in the face.
"I dunno, guess I just kind of zoned out sorry about that it happens way too often." The kid replied back with before making his way into the school building.
Mabel just stood there in shock from what just happened. She just couldn't believe it. She had worked up a reason for why they were staring at her and to have them stare for no reason at all. It really didn't live up to the confrontation she had built up in her mind, she quickly put her two feet back on earth and headed towards the entrance.
"You've got to go to Piedmont." Dipper told Stan after a long bout of violent attacks from Stan.
"What? Why?" Stan asked "I would only go there if somebody called me and needed me. And so far the only call I've gotten is from your sister about that dumb pigs sweaters." He told the sock puppet he now knew as Dipper.
"Do you remember what Bill was like here?" Dipper asked hoping his Grunkle would catch on.
"Yeah just the way he stood and stared now that was true horror, why are you asking me about that freaky little triangle anyways?" Stan asked the puppet.
"No time to explain, can you just tell me where Ford is?" Dipper asked back, slightly aggravated at the fact Stan never caught on to what he was saying.
"Good luck kid, all I know is that he hasn't left the house have fun searching." Stan told Dipper before pulling up his recliner and ignoring his existence.
"Okay I guess this mystery will have to be solved by the ghost in a sock." Dipper exclaimed before retreating back into the house.
"Hey Dipper, what's that mark on your arm?" The mother asked while serving Dipper breakfast.
"JUST ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT IN CAUSING THIS BODY PAIN." Bipper cheerfully explained, while both adults in the room sat in silence.
"Why did you do it Dipper? Please tell me" The mother asked tears pricking her face.
"ARE YOU DEAF? I WANTED TO CAUSE PAIN AND I DID, THERE'S NOT MUCH MORE TO KNOW, UNLESS YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW I DID IT." Bipper smiled back, his face growing noticeably sinister.
"Not now sweetie, maybe later when you've calmed down a little." She told her son hoping he wouldn't notice the tears that were slowly trickling down her face.
"SO IF I EAT THIS THE MYSTERIOUS PAIN AND NOISE WILL STOP?" Bipper asked shoving another spoonful of ceral in his mouth.
"Yes Dipper, if you eat food you'll stop being hungry" He explained to his son, amazed at the fact that his son now didn't get the basics to take care of himself.
"HA! AND PFEOPHLE TELL MEF TFFERE IS NOHF SUCHF TING AS MAGICH." Bipper said, his mouth full with sugary ceral so nobody could really quite make out what he was saying.
"Dipper you really shouldn't lean on the table." The father told him, just noticing the chair standing on its two hind legs.
"WHY NOT? NOTHING BAD IS GOING TO HAPPEN I'VE HAD GREAT LUCK TODAY." Bipper boosted leaning back further.
"Your father doesn't want you to fall and hit your head that's all Dipper."
It was like the words she had just said had put some kind of curse on the chair, because soon after she said that Bipper lost his balance and the chair he was sitting on went toppling over creating a very large bang on the floor. Both parents jumped out of their seats and rushed to the site of the crash. They both saw Dipper push himself up off the ground, it looked as if he was rather dizzy, he made his way onto his feet and stood there staring at the two adults holding his twisted grin. All of them stood in silence staring at one another, until Dipper finally broke the silence with his gut busting laughter that filled the house with chills.
"SEE? TOLD YOU I'D HAVE NO BAD LUCK TODAY." He laughed.
Both parents stared at one another their stares could speak for themselves.
"Who is this kid?"
