Before a sobbing Dipper knew what he was doing...he was hugging Wendy...and confessing everything...his 'first' summer here...failing to save the world...dying...coming back...as a videogame character...all he'd been through...and now Grenda...one of Mable's best friends...was dead...
"Please...please Wendy...join my party...I need my friend back! I- I can't do this without you!" Sobbed a desperate Dipper...
Wendy...Wendy was completely lost...it all sounded insane...true, she knew that having just seen bigfoot she should be more-open minded...but this...this was BEYOND insane...but still...he looked desperate...
beep!
Also, a large digital screen had just popped out of nowhere, kinda proving what he was saying...
Join party?
Y/N
Wendy looked this in disbelief...she reached her hand...but hesitated...she gave another look at the poor, sobbing boy she barely knew...then steeled herself, pressed yes...and REMEMBERED
Who wants a Lamby, Lamby?
I think I'm gonna go stare at a wall and rethink everything.
"But Dipper, they're so...(holds up corn dog to the end of the sign that says "DELICIOUS")delicious?"
Lemme tell you something: this summer was SUPER boring until you showed up. I have more fun with you than, like, practically anybody else; and if you ever stopped being my friend, I would, like, throw myself into the Bottomless Pit!
You can't force someone to love you. The best you can do is strive to be someone worthy of loving
...
And like that...all the memories are returned to her...and now...now her eyes are tearing up...she now turns to the person who she now remembers as one of the most important people in her life. "Dipper?" She squeaked out...and like that Dipper was hugging his FRIEND again...
...
"man that's messed up...but I think your being WAY too hard on yourself...you were just blowing off steam after she RAPED you...and come on...killing someone by shattering a flask no where near them? How could ANYONE possibly predict that?"
"But still...Grenda is dead...she was a good frien- "No, OUR Grenda was a good friend." Interrupted Wendy angrily. "This videogame version...whoever she was...she was A Grenda...but OUR Grenda would never do this." Said Wendy sorrowful...the memory of that crazy, wonderful, younger girl who beat up unicorns with her was still fresh in her mind.
Dipper sighed..."Still...if she were alive...we could've added her to my party and restored her memory like it did to you apparently, if only-
DING! NEW MISSION! REVIVE GRENDA!
Reward: (locked), gain Grenda as a party member and love interest.
"Love interest?" Thinks Wendy confused. Dipper frowns, "Um...okay...I guess were going to do that then." He says as he tries to get his mixed feelings under control. He turns to Wendy. "So...your really okay with this?"
Wendy shrugs; "Okay with what? The insanity, the life-or-death struggle? So what else is new?" She said with a sarcastic chuckle. Dipper sighs, "Quite alot actually, whoever is making this 'game' has retconed everything, I doubt what we know of the first time around will be alot of use...plus, he seems to have made it his life purpose to make me and those I care about suffer."
Wendy just smiled, Come on dude, video games don't exist to solely torture the players. You always start of with a tone of crap, but as the game progresses you get better equipment and abilities or get to remove hindrances...so Just chill and keep playing the game, and in no time you'll be a seven foot tall five star bad a** with world class brains, washboard abs and swinging your sword everywhere." She said with a smirk.
"You really think I can, wait...a sword? Why would I need a...ooooohhh. You mean my..." Said a flusterd Dipper, suddenly VERY self-conscious that he was still naked. He quickly used his hat to cover himself.
"Heh heh. Yup." Teased Wendy as he gave him a wink...and mercifully, her coat to cover his shame further. Dipper desperately tried to recompose himself, "Okay first...I'm probably going to need you to go to town and buy me clothes."
"Done and done." Said wendy sincerely, she joked...but it was seven shades of awkward having him like that...especially with his ...(cough) shortcomings visible for all to see.
But also...you'll probablly need to fill up and organize your stats before you do anything else. But i gotta warn you...I know your nonchalant toward this- something I've alway admired about you -...this game really won't pull any punches to make you beg for mercy.
Wendy snorted as she brought up her status screen, "Buddy, I- briefly -survived weirdmagedon...I think I can handle...she trailed off when she saw her 'perk' selection...
Feat: old blue eyes: all you have to do to get what you want as for the Old eyelashes, and whoever looks at you will be lost in your sweet baby blues. Wrapping them around your finger, baby doll.
Effect: dramatically increases charisma and all associated a day you can automatically win a charisma related check.
Negatives: If you keep giving people the eyes, they start to form opinions. People will now, regardless of evidence to the contrary, treat you like a sweet l, innocent and utterly helpless, pink loving girly girl. Your physical attributes and related skills are reduced to 1. Cannot increase for as long as this feat is active.
Brawn Hilda: Your the daughter of an upright walking bear! It's time you looked the part!
Effect: Your physical attributes and related skills are increased dramatically.
Negative: this is not unnatural strength. You look every bit as strong as you are. You gain the cliche appearance and accent of a strong, intimidating Eastern European woman. Reduce charisma attribute and related skills to 1. Cannot be increased as long as this feat is active.
Babewatch: Yooou'll be there! To do what you don't know. But you look good.
Effect: Increase Luck attribute to a ridiculous degree.
Negative: You'll never be appreciated for you mind that's for sure. You gain the cliche appearance and accent of an air headed valley girl. Reduce wisdom and logic attributes and related skills to 1. Cannot increase as long as this feat is active.
Wendy then TRULY made good of her lumberjack heritage by swearing up a storm that would make even a sailor blush...
...
Dipper calmed her down by explaining to her that the next time they found a 'power to the people' item he'd give it to her to negate the downside...in the meantime since all the other perks seemed to have been locked(until they access the 'day of the Devourer' DLC for some reason), he advise to skip the perks...for the moment she'd have to just forget about using perks and just allocate her-
"1900 PRIMARY STATISTIC POINTS!?" Shots Dipper in disbelief.
DING!
As an anti-frustration feature- "HA!" Mocked Dipper -any new party members will be given the combined total of the main player's(you) current primary statistic's as well as perk points How do you like that, all your hard work, blood, sweat, and tears...and I just handed it to all to someone else on a silver platter...that must feel good, doesn't it?
Wendy looked over expecting to see a devastated Dipper...but was surprised to see him smile! "Actually...it dose feel good! Wendy is now very much protected from the horrors no doubt sneaking around, I couldn't be happier!" He shouts sincerely.
DING!
...spoil sport...Anyway! as a secondary character- "HEY!" Shouts Wendy -Shut up Wendy! You stopped being relevant after the bunker, and you know it! Anyway, she won't have access to any of the secondary statistics you do- except Nemamancy of course-although she has a more specialized set of secondary statistics...they won't become unlocked until AFTER the above mentioned DLC is accessed Dipper will also get first dib's on all loot she finds and it will be DIPPER that controls where her primary statistics get located.
Dipper looks to Wendy. "Soooo...that bother you?" Wendy shrugs, "Nah, I trust you..." She said with indifference.
Ding!
...Just get a move on, darn you!
Wendy also took a look at Dipper's statistics to get a firmer grasp on the situation..."Whoa! You own two planets! And all you had to do was...Oh." She went scarlet as turned to her increasingly unfortunate friend.
Dipper covered his crotch all the more tightly. "Please...don't abuse that power." Wendy looked at him horrified, "What!? No! Dude, I maybe a prankster...but- Just no! There are some lines that shouldn't be crossed!...by the way what's nemamancy?"
Dipper sighed, "Power over clothes...I can only assume it's to give my love interests the power to humiliate me..." Wendy rolled her eyes, "Relax dude...I know this is a serious situation, I won't do that to you...yet." She said that last part quietly to herself.
Wendy had talked with Soos enough to know that she covers a lot of the dating sim tropes. She's a none-related girl who hangs out with the main character (i.e Dipper), She's 'the first girl', The fiery redhead, The cool older girl, The tomboy with a girly streak, The action girl...she wasn't 100% onboard with this...she'd do what she could to help him find the 'right girl'(something, looking back, she wished she'd done the first time around) after they weren't dying...but for now...she was going to do what she could to get ride of those 'lover defects'- they were messed up! Also, she knew that they needed every advantage they could get against Bill...even that Pyronica...thing.
Deciding she'd focus on this later, she helped Dipper decide where to assign her points:

Wendy shakes her head, "I take back what I said...this video game IS out to torture us. They then decide to head off before the Big-foots return and see what they did to their daughter, they first wrap up her body and put it in Dipper inventory...and they leave in the golf cart...
...for a moment...silence reigns in the forest...then out of the shadows...a young person...clothed in black ninja garb appears...the person walks through the clearing...then stops...she gets on all fours and smells the ground...she throws some dust...and sees an ethereal vision of Grenda's still body...
the ninja gasps..then gets on their hands and knees and sobs. But the ninja composes them self...and searches the ground for clues...and then it's found! a lock of brunette hair! The ninja leaves the area with purpose...she is on the hunt!

Wendy looks at the fork in the road that's popped in front of them in disbelief, "wow." She says in horrified amazement. "I know." Groaned Dipper in affirmation. "I'm going to regret joining this adventure aren't I?" "I'm surprised your not already..."

AN: Okay, what would you guys like to see happen next?
AN: I know it says "in-progress" but really I just don't like boxing myself into a corner. For now this is more of a one-shot that I might continue one day...but probably won't.
But, hey. Feel free to use whatever elements you want from this, if you want! Or maybe give me ideas?
Love me, flame me, review me
