Soos nodded, "Thanks for the offer."
Bill smiled, "You know.. I have an extra room in the Shanty, I never go in it. Say, I'll clean some of it out and you can hang out here whenever." He nodded
Soos smiled, "That'd be so nice."
"That way you can watch over the kids when I'm not around... I'm not asking you to make them dinner or like literally baby sit them. Just you know... it'll be nice for them to have a friend around."
Dipper smiled at the suggestion, "I second this motion." He butted in, pulling his blanket over his shoulders more.
Bill tightened his lips, "Go back to sleep. It's twelve am." He ruffled Dipper's hair.
He whined, "I'm not a little kid.. I can stay up." He scowled
Bill frowned, "Yeah but it's not good for you. Especially for a young person." He mumbled, "see even Soos just fell asleep." He pointed over to the sleeping man.
Dipper frowned, "I can't fall asleep with the faint sound of screaming coming from upstairs... how comes Mabel doesn't have to go to sleep?" He huffed, tugging on Bill's sleeve like a toddler would.
Bill sighed, hanging his head down a second, "Fine.. let's clean out that extra room for Soos... come on." He got up and picked Dipper up with him.
"H-hey!" He whisper yelled, and put on an unhappy face.
Bill laughed, setting him down once they got into the room. Dipper hadn't really wondered what was in it before, it was always there, unhidden, "Nice room, right?" He smiled, picking up a pair of chattered glasses on the floor, putting them in his pocket.
Dipper looked around the room, adjusting his shirt from being carried, felt knelt down and felt the carpeting with his hand, "Yeah.. it's nice." He smiled up at Bill.
He rolled his eyes, "That carpet sucks, we should get rid of it." Bill grimaced
Dipper frowned, laying down on the carpet, "Can I keep it?" He tilted his head.
Bill snickered, "Heck no, now get up." He held his hand down to help the boy up, a blue flash fell through the room.
Dipper blinked a few times and held his head, "Ugh... what happened...?" He sat up, "these aren't my..." He looked over and screamed
"Oh. My... I think I'm gonna barf.." Bill held his stomach, which was now in Dipper's body, "oh shit..." He whined, running into the bathroom and throwing up.
Dipper was too busy panicking, just staring down at himself, he felt lightheaded. He stood up and focused on balance, he whined, "I want my body back! Oh god oh god." He gripped his shirt, it felt good to be a little stronger, and taller. But this was utterly disgusting, "I need to throw up too." He went into the bathroom and did so.
Bill cried, "It's the carpet you ding dong. Quick quick quick before I throw up again." He crawled out of the bathroom, rubbing his hands on the carpet.
Dipper anxiously touched his hand again, "Oh thank god it's my body. Burn it Bill. Burn it!" He shook his shoulders and got off the carpet.
Both rolled it up frantically and took it outside, "I might get a fine for his but it's worth it!" Bill took a lighter, the carpet caught aflame.
Both sitting nearby, just watching it, both thinking about what the hell they just experienced, "I wish I would have gone to bed..." Dipper mumbled
Bill shivered, "Shh... we don't tell your sister, and we never switched bodies." He put a finger to the boys mouth, Dipper gave a small nod.
"Can we... go to sleep now?" He asked, furrowing his eyebrows.
Bill nodded and went inside with Dipper, where they fell asleep in the living room with Soos.
Morning came in a few hours, and work in the Shanty began. Mabel; had convinced Bill to give her the day off to see a concert with her friends. While Dipper went to Bill about a problem with Robbie, "Hm, definitely mind control... I'll get my CD player. We play it slowed down, then backwards.. either are possible."
Dipper blinked, then nodded in determination, he was gonna expose Robbie, and win the girl. Bill returned with his player and popped the CD in, "Okay, so when he expose this guy we should probably help Wendy with their soon to be break up..." Bill frowned.
He tilted his head, he hadn't thought of that, Dipper bit his lip, "Right... right... comfort her." Dipper sighed, well, I guess his objective would take longer than wanted.
Bill frowned, "Oh I see... you like her huh? Well... Dipper, if you really like her, you'd set her feelings before almost everything else... it isn't just about what you want. It's about what both of you want, and you need to work that out together. Not exactly directly.. you have to be patient, and you have to hope things will fall into place. But, if they don't, then you aren't meant to be." He patted the boys back and smiled
Dipper smiled weakly and looked down, "Thanks Gother Bill... I'll keep that in mind." He blushed, feeling his cheeks heat up.
Bill sighed, "Dipper... I know parents are usually supposed to do this, but I think we should talk about the birds and the bees." He got out a book.
The boys eyes widened, "Um I'm fine." He chuckled, but was pulled to sit down.
"This is the pituitary gland, he may be little, but he has big plans." Bill waggled his eyebrows.
Dipper whined, "Help!"
Bill rolled his eyes, "Oh come on Dipper.."
The boy sighed, "You're not even used to being human.. how could you be giving me the talk." He grumbled and folded his arms.
Bill grinned and chuckled, "Oh, you're in for a wild ride now. Get ready for the talk of your life. Because of that little comment, I'm going into extreme detail. Buckle up Pine Tree."
Dipper gulped, and Bill's explanation began. He thoroughly explained details he had seen from being an omniscient being. Dipper almost cried at one point, he didn't like it one bit, and he wanted to throw up.
Once Bill finished he closed the book and watched Dipper rock back and forth, "Good bye childhood."
Bill smiled wide, "Oh come on Dipper, it didn't sound that bad." He rolled his eyes.
The young boy whined, "I feel gross, I think I need to take a shower... then we play that CD and save Wendy from make out point.." He shivered, "ugh, I don't think I'll ever be able to kiss someone now." He mumbled, exiting the room.
Bill looked at the book, yep. He was a good God Father.
