Shipping Queen 477: Yeah, so, more Dipper and Pacifica bonding is likely, but they won't be full blown romantic for a while. Which is fine because this story takes place over a large time period in my place, not yet of course, but soon.
A very angry ravage: YEP. I entirely agree with you, the way I wrote that chapter was rushed and wasn't genuine or emotional, I rushed through it, the ending wasn't great, to be honest I was reasonably tired, and I wanted to have a Pacifica and Wendy bonding chapter, because I could. I failed to set up Gideon as a villain properly. I'm going to try and write up the rest of it to work better than that, but then again I'm insane so we never know? Cool.
REVIEW please, I need advice, what should future chapters include?
UPDATE: I'm going to pull back on the updating of this story setting it to once a week because my life is chaotic, when my life is more orderly and I can figure out how much time I have I will either return to two a week or confirm almost permanent once a week stories.
Other random bits. I mentioned earlier on in the authors notes that there was a Star Wars Gravity Falls crossover story I was doing, the first two chapters of that are up sooo if that interests you go check it out. It will be updated every other week.
The Tales we Tell
Pacifica looked through the book in her hands, it was from the large library in her old home, Northwest Manor. The books words were useless to her, the knowledge was unimportant and tiny where it was speckled throughout the story. The books contained very little on the Fae, other than mentions of them being from early French myths, and appearing in celtic stories, along with later King Arthur Myth's, specifying that it referred to Morgane, the sorceress, who was Arthur's sister.
Still it didn't bother her. She had rather enjoyed reading as a child, growing up in a large mansion with only her parents, and the serving staff, a group of people who she'd been taught to treat as sub-human. Pacifica shuddered at the thought of that, she had been an awful person once upon a time. She had been doomed to be like her parents, until she wasn't, until a party a little under a year ago, until a golf tournament barely a year ago. So much had changed. The world had burnt, and she'd lived through it. They had all become monsters in a way. In some odd ways she was a completely different person, and in some ways that made perfect sense to her.
"Pacifica did you find anything?" Dipper called from across the room.
"I would have told you if I did. All I've got are brief half-references, and a couple of notes refering to the world of the Fae." Pacifica replied.
"Same, I think there may be nothing on them, which really sucks, but hey, I guess that's how all important questions go, you can never find what you need." Dipper said, looking around.
"How are you so mellow about this? We are Monsters! Literally. We've lost almost half of Summer, and we've got no leads." Pacifica yelled at Dipper.
"Well, in short. Last year I panicked over finding out who the author was, and the more I worried the less I found, it wasn't even me who brought Great Uncle Ford back, it was Stan, so I mean, I figure that if we just relax things will go better. It worked last summer?" Dipper replied.
"When did you relax last summer? You went looking through bunkers, and then you were trying to figure out the laptop, and then he showed up right after, I don't see any time for relaxing." Pacifica said, one eyebrow raised at Dipper, and a hand on her hip.
"Well, er, there wasyourparty. Anyway, since we found nothing you want to go see if we can find Mcgucket again? He's vanished once more." Dipper said looking away from Pacifica.
"Wait, you said that really fast. My party. Oh. Yeah, that. Where we got chased by ghosts, and I lied to you. Wait, that was the time you found relaxing? Really?" Pacifica said, she blinked at Dipper who had turned a shade of bright red resembling a tomato.
"Errrr. Yeesss?" Dipper said stretching out each sound for at least half a minute.
"You are not normal Pines." Pacifica replied heading out the door of the library.
Mabel laughed splashing through the water of the lake, she moved easily through the dark murky water, and discovered that one of her 'mermaid super-special powers' was being able to see underwater just as easily as she could above the water. She swam with ease through the lake, enjoying her time by leaping through the water. She laughed, swimming and twirling through the water. As she arrived at the edge of an island a strange figure appeared, beautiful and shimmering, like sunlight captured in human form. She was smiling, but Mabel couldn't describe her, she had hair, it was of no color though, and the same was true of her eyes. Mabel sat stunned by the creature who approached with a small smile, it was motherly in some ways, but in other ways completely its own thing.
"Hello Shooting Star." The creature said, her voice was soft and smooth like velvet.
"Why'd you call me that? Are you psychic? Oooh, are you a witch, or a wizard, or something?" Mabel said, youthfully enthusiastic.
"In some ways. But I have known something of you more recently. Your deeds have not gone unnoticed, not even by the fae-ry. I have had some plans for you little one, not as planned out as your brother, but you shall not be forgotten by me, remember that." The women said, with the same faint smile.
"Oh, um okay? Sooo, why are you in Gravity Falls? And are you like super magic? Wait you said you were a fae-ry? Like a Fairy? Cool, your super pretty, and nice, not like those Unicorns." Mabel said still smiling brightly.
"Yes, I am like what you call the Fairies. I am much more like the Elves, but still what you refer to are Pixies of many different sorts, sprites as well. I am old, but not like stone, I am the old willow tree. The unicorns are rash and arrogant, and youthful. Like you. So small a thing to have slain a demon. So small a thing to have thrown apart the universe. You matter for you are insignificant, remember that." The strange woman said with a smile, before stepping away and disappearing into a wave of mist.
Wendy was napping, at work. Again. She was awoken by the sound of movement, as a form appeared out of the corner of her eye. A strange figure, her clothes were woven of twilight, her eyes ever changing, as was her hair. She was Lady Willow, the Fae. Wendy grabbed her axe from her side swinging it into the Fae's shoulder. Willow simply laughed and smiled at Wendy as she removed the axe flinging it aside.
"Surely you know no blade of that make would kill me, Magic, Demon's Fire, and a thousand other things certainly, but not that." Lady Willow said with a smile.
"What do you want then? Why are you here?" Wendy asked snarling.
"Someday you will understand. You will never be the hero, never be the savior, you have a quest, a purpose singular, but it is not you whose purpose is served in the destruction of evil, in fact, some might say you free evil. Oh someday you shall understand Ice, for someday you will melt." Willow replied to Wendy.
"What's that even supposed to mean?" Wendy's reaction was sheer surprise the strange ramblings of the Fae passed over her head.
"So young. So rash, so angry. Anger wears thin, and Rashness fades. Someday you shall understand, for you shall be alone someday, cursed by yourself and yourself alone into fear, you will flee the home you have here, you shall flee your actions. You are significant, but not so much that you shall be noticed. You are useful." Willow said, smiling at the girl. Who still seemed confused. Then Lady Willow turned, and strode out the door, Wendy was about to grab her when she went flying back, she looked around to that she had been knocked back by a couple vines, and small hidden creature that had emerged to protect the Fae woman, who disappeared out the door, as Wendy ran outside she was gone, leaving only unanswered questions.
I apologize for the Short Chapter, but I didn't really have all the story elements for the story I was going to do, and didn't feel like showing Pacifica and Dipper training, so I just threw together some meetings with Willow that I felt worked, and that's what this chapter is mostly made of. We're going to drop a lot of the Fae stuff for a while-ish? Well... actually, based off how much story I have left to work with up until the next Fae appearance... You might just get more Fae relatively soon? Three or Four chapters most likely in actuality. UNLESS... Someone can give me some Filler Story stuff to do?
Anyway, just because there is more Fae stuff don't presume that we are anywhere near the end of this story, Hint, we aren't. At all. I think most of my story has yet to come. This might have been the first... eighth of the Story? In actual time... well depends on the character, for Pacifica and Dipper it's not even been an eighth, probably a tenth or less? For Wendy, maybe a thirtieth? For Mabel... An Eighth. For the Stans... wellllllll... They haven't appeared yet so none of it, but theoretically a fifth at most.
Anyway, PLEASE REVIEW. That's all, now that I've gotten my insane rambling out of the way.
ALSO if you are interested please check out my other Fic, the Title is Force Falls: Legacy of the Empire, it's going to be as mentioned updated twice a week, and is if you hadn't guessed from the Title a Star Wars/Gravity Falls fic, set in the Star Wars universe, but not as a major part of it. For example the stuff is happening, but it isn't like the characters are Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewie... That is also a Dipcifica ship story.
