Chapter 4: Hand That Creeps Emily Out.
(Emily's P.O.V)
Well it's official...I'm sleep deprived. I could barely focus during work today and Wendy had to shake me awake...12...no...15...times? I don't know...the point is I'm scared that Bill could do something terrible to me if I sleep. I napped a few times but it's obviously not working too well for me. Now Stan was outside giving a tour while the twins, Soos and I were watching the tv.
"The tiger was badly injured in the explosion, but we repaired him with a fist." The TV Narrator said and the tiger on the screen punched itself as Dipper Mable and Soos cheered. Wait...is this an episode day...or I'm a mixing it up...with a normal day...?
"Tiger fist, will return after these messages." The narrator said as a commercial came on the screen. Are those birds?
"Hey, look. It's that commercial I was telling you guys about." Soos said and I rubbed my eyes to focus.
"Are you completely miserable?" A voice over of Bud Gleeful asked.
"Yes!" An over the top crying actor exclaimed.
"Then you need to meet...Gideon." Bud continued, whispering the last part.
"Gideon?" Dipper asked in confusion.
"What makes him so special?" Mabel asked.
"He's a psychic." Bud unknowingly answered.
"Aroo." Mable asked as she cocked her head.
"So don't waste your time with other so-called 'man of mystery'." Bud said as a screen showed a clip of Stan coming out form an outhouse and a stamped the word 'FRAUD' in red letters.
"Learn about your tomorrow, tonight! At Gideon's Tent do Telepathy." Bud finished and speed spoke the subtext for commercial that no one understood. At least I didn't.
"Wow, I'm getting all curiousy inside!" Mabel said excitedly as Stan walked in.
"Well, don't get too curiousy. Ever since that monster Gideon rolled into town, I've had nothin' but trouble." Stan huffed angrily.
"Well, is he really psychic?" Mabel asked.
"I think we should go and find out." Dipper said thoughtfully.
"Never! You're forbidden from patronizing the competition. No one that lives under my roof is allowed under that Gideon's roof!" Stan demanded before walking off.
"Do tents have roofs?" Dipper asked.
"I think we just found our loop hole...literally." Mabel then held up a string with an actual loop in it. "Mwop mwop!"
"Where you carrying that the whole time?" I asked.
"That's my secret." Mabel winked as we turned back to the t.v.
"So come down soon, folks. Gideon is expecting you." Bud said. I let out a single laugh.
"Cue theme song." I sighed.
"What?" Dipper asked. Oh gosh darn it, why'd I say it loud!?
"Uh...nothing..." I said quickly and acted like nothing happened.
That evening Dipper, Mabel, Soos and I entered the Tent of Telepathy and sat in the audience. I glanced around at the people and fiddled with my necklace.
"Whoa, this is like a bizarro version of the Mystery Shack. They even have their own Soos." Dipper said and pointed to worker that looked a lot like Soos. I noticed him glaring at his doppelgänger while eating an empanada. The lights then started to dim.
"It's starting! It's starting!" Mabel said excitedly.
"Let's see what this monster looks like." Dipper said with determination. A shadow appeared bending the curtains and it opened to reveal Gideon.
"Hello America! My name is Li'l Gideon." He greeted and clapped his hands, signaling doves to fly out of his hair and the crowds cheered.
"That's Stan's mortal enemy?" Dipper asked in shock.
"But he's so wittle!" Mabel gushed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is such a gift to have you here tonight! ...Such a gift. I have a vision I predict that you will soon all say, 'aww.'" Gideon then turned around and gave a cute pose causing most of then audience to gush happily.
"It's came true!" Mable said in awe.
"What? I'm not impressed." Dipper said.
"You're impressed." Mabel said.
"Just keep watching." I whispered.
"Hit it dad!" Gideon cried as Bud began to play the piano as his son started singing and dancing.
"Oh I can see, what others can't see. It ain't some sideshow trick, it's innate ability. Where others are blind, I am futurely inclined. And you too could see, if your was widdle ol' me!" Gideon sang happily, I found myself tapping my foot and laughing at his dance.
"Come on, everybody, rise up! I want y'all to keep it going!" Gideon said as he clutched his bow-tie and we all stood up, not controlling our movements.
"Wha—? How did he—?" Dipper asked in shock and confusion.
"That felt weird." I added, not kidding even though I expected it, being controlled felt weird and unnatural...creepy...
"You wish your son would call you more." Gideon sang.
"I'm leaving everything to my cats!" The cat lady cried as her cats on her lap meowed.
"I sense that you've been here before." Gideon continued. Sheriff Blubs was sitting with a bunch of Gideon merch.
"Oh, what gave it away?" He asked obliviously.
"Come on." Dipper rolled his eyes. Gideon then came up next to us.
"I'll read your mind if I'm able. Something tells me your names Mabel." Gideon sang. Mabel then turned, eyes widened, not realizing her sweater actually said 'Mabel'.
"How'd he do that?" She asked.
"So welcome all ye...to the Tent or Telepathy. Thanks for visiting...widdle ol' me!" Gideon finished as he did a few turns and posed as the crowd cheered.
"Oh...oh my goodness." Gideon panted and took out a bottle of water and took a few sips. "Thank you! You people are the real miracles!" He exclaimed.
"Woo, yeah!" Mabel cheered happily. We soon came to the exit and I felt my eye lids get heavy...I just need some soda or coffee...maybe both.
"Man, that kid's an even bigger fraud than Stan! No wonder he's jealous." Dipper said.
"Oh, come on. His dance moves were adorable! And did you see his hair? It was like, whoosh!" Mabel said excitedly.
"You're too easily impressed." Dipper said smugly.
"Yeah, yeah." Mable said playfully and they started heading back to the Shack. I then looked behind me and caught sight of Gideon looking at us. His eyes widened when he saw me. I gave a simple wave before turning back around.
When we got back I yawned tiredly and flopped on the couch and turned on the television.
"Uh...Emily...shouldn't you be heading to your treehouse?" Dipper asked.
"Nope...me watching tv now...night night." I said and Mabel laughed.
"Haha, night night." She said and walked up stairs. Dipper gave me a worried glance and followed his twin. Okay, I just need to stay up for what...haha...I can't count...Hey is that a dancing bunny!?
About 2 hours later I was still up and staring blankly at the tv. I heard foot steps and saw that Stan entered the room with a lantern.
"Hey Stan, how's the portal?" I asked casually...oh crap did I actually asked that!?
"What!? How'd you know about that!?" Stan asked in fear...come on, get your self out of this...
"The portal the invisible wizard asked you to make, because his magical banana got sucked through, who is also Gomper's second cousin." I blurted out without even thinking.
"Uh...Emily...when was the last time you slept?" Stan asked. I thought for a moment.
"Not since Mabel made the magical wax twin! I can't let him back inside." I said and Stan raise an eyebrow.
"So why haven't you slept?" Stan asked, huh...I think I hear concern in that gruff voice of his...weird...
"Crazy person entered my brain and I ain't letting him back in!" I said before laughing and Stan then grabbed my arm and dragged me to the kitchen.
"Okay...sit." He commanded and I sat on the chair and he passed me a glass. "Relax and drink this." He said and I drank it up...wait...warm milk...he wanted me to sleep!
"Oh...I see what your doing...you want me to sleep...let my guard down..NOT HAPPENING...St-Stanly!...no need for sleep...birch trees..." That's the last thing I remembered before my eyes closed and I fell asleep.
When I woke up I was on the couch and gasped before making sure I wasn't floating in the mind-scape.
"Phew, I'm still me...and I feel great." I said and stretched my arms up.
"Good to hear." I turned and saw that Stan came in.
"Oh...hey..." I said awkwardly and I moved so I was sitting down and Stan sat next to me.
"Look kid, you haven't gotten sleep for a while and you were purposely trying to stay awake. Wanna tell me what's going on?" Stan asked worriedly. I sighed...I couldn't tell him the full truth, but maybe I could twist it.
"Alright...the truth is...I had a bad dream. There I said it." I blurted out and Stan blinked and raise an eyebrow.
"Really? You act tough almost everyday. How can a silly little nightmare get in the way of you sleeping?" Stan asked, giving a chuckle as well.
Dang I really needed him to understand without explaining Bill...that wouldn't end well...since Stan only had journal 1 I couldn't really explain it.
"Well...it's hard to explain...but the dream made me think I'm gonna lose everything. Not just my stuff, but you, Soos, Wendy even Dipper and Mabel...I guess after losing Georgia...I'm just scared I'll lose you guys too." I explained. Stan was quite.
"Aww kid, I know it hurts to lose someone, but you won't lose us anytime soon. I promise." Stan said and I smiled.
"Thanks Stan...for that and for getting me some sleep." I laughed and got up to make breakfast. As I entered the kitchen I felt my necklace glow and looked down at it and cupped my hands around it.
"Your secret is safe." An unfamiliar voice whispered before the necklace returned to normal. It sounded warm and soft. I knew that it couldn't be Bill...but who was it?
Later I was sitting on the couch looking at the Gravity Falls Newspaper when Mabel ran over to Dipper.
"Check it out, Dipper! I successfully bezazzled my face! Blink!" Mabel said as she actually blinked her eyes and a few sequins fell off her face. "Ow." She muttered.
"Is that permanent?" Dipper asked. "How'd you even do that?" I asked.
"I'm unappreciated in my time..." Mabel sighed and, right on cue, the doorbell rang.
"Somebody answer that door!" Stan called. I then shot up.
"I'm closest, I'll get it." I said as Mabel wiped the sequins off her face. I opened the door and looked down to see Gideon.
"Oh...hi?" I said.
"Hello ma'am. Nice to see you've gotten some rest..." He started but I cut him off.
"Okay weird, how'd you know I was having trouble sleeping?" I asked suspiciously. Gideon clamped his mouth and started to sweat.
"Why, I'm a psychic, it's my job...tehehehe..." He said and I raised an eyebrow.
"Uh...okay...just I know you and Stan don't..." I started.
"No, don't you dare tell Stan I'm here!" Gideon whispered darkly then suddenly replaced it with a happy smile.
"I mean...I just wish to speak with Mabel..." He said.
"Yeah, next time open with that instead of commenting on someone's sleep. Mabel, it's for you!" I called and Mabel rushed over to the door.
"Howdy." Gideon greeted.
"It's wittle ol' you!" Mable exclaimed happily. Gideon then laughed nervously.
"Yeah, my song's quite catchy. Now, I know we haven't formally met, but after yesterday's performance, I just couldn't get your laugh out of my head." Gideon said and Mabel let out a nice smile.
"You mean this one?" Mabel asked before laughing as an example.
"Oh, what a delight! Now, when I saw you in the audience, I said to myself, 'Now there's a kindred spirit! Someone who appreciates the sparkly things in life.'" Gideon continued to woo. Or at least tried too.
"That's totally me!" Mabel laughed and started to cough and sequins flew out of her mouth and landed on Gideon's suit, giving it a nice shine.
"Okay, how'd that happen?" I asked. "Another one of my secrets." Mabel winked proudly.
"Enchanting. Utterly enchanting." Gideon whispered in awe.
"Who's at the door?" Stan called from inside.
"No one, Grunkle Stan!" Mabel called back.
"I appreciate your discretion. Now, Stan's no fan of mine. I don't know how a lemon so sour could be related to a peach so sweet." Gideon said causing Mabel to blush.
"Gideon! Aha ha!" Mable gushed.
"What do you say we step away from here, and chat a bit more? Perhaps in my dressing room?" Gideon asked. Though I could tell he wasn't going to let 'no' be an answer.
"Oh! Makeovers, yahoo!" Mabel cheered and poked Gideon in the stomach.
"Hahaha...ow." Gideon muttered.
"You won't tell Stan, will you Emily?" Mabel asked and I smirked.
"Lips are sealed, as long as you make me that green and yellow sweater later." I winked and she gave me a hug.
"Thanks Emily! I'll be back soon!" She promised and ran off with Gideon. I closed the door and Dipper was giving me a look.
"Did you seriously let Mabel run off with Stan's mortal enemy?" He asked in a concerned voice.
"What, she's was going to sneak out either way. Besides it's nice she gets to make friends. I won't lie and say Gideon is a bit suspicious, but I shouldn't get in the way of Mabel's friendships." I explained and went into the kitchen and grabbed a Pit Cola can.
"Well...maybe you're right..." Dipper said and sat on the couch reading Journal 3. I sat at the table and thought on how many ways the day could turn out...
When Mabel returned she almost caught me off guard, man that's a lot of makeup.
"Hey Dipper. What's goin' oooon?" She asked as she dangled her new nails over Dippers head.
"Whoa...what is going with your fingernails, you look like a wolverine." Dipper said, sitting up on the couch.
"Hair looks good though." I commented, walking over to them.
"I know right?" Mabel then roared and acted like she was scratching something. "I was hanging out with my new pal, Gideon. He is one dapper little man." Mabel explained.
"Mabel, I don't trust anyone who's hair is bigger than their head." Dipper said.
"Oh, leave him alone! You never want to do girly stuff with me; you and Soos get to do boy stuff all the time! Emily and Wendy aren't into the girl stuff I like." Mable said.
"What do you mean?" Dipper asked and a Soos ran in holding a sack of hotdogs.
"Hey dude, you ready to blow up these hot dogs in the microwave one by one?" Hen asked.
"Am I!" Dipper exclaimed excitedly and they ran off and popping sounds are soon made as they start laughing.
"One-at-a-time! One-at-a-time!" They chanted and I rolled my eyes playfully before turning to Mabel.
"Hey if you are in the mood to do something 'girly' and Gideon isn't around, come to my treehouse." I said, ruffling her hair and Mabel have me a smile.
"Thanks sis." Mabel said and covered her mouth. "Oh...I Uh...sorry it just slipped out." She sputtered and I smiled.
"Eh, I don't mind." I said and ruffled her hair. Then walked out before she saw tears rolling down my eyes.
A while later I was folding laundry and Mabel walked in.
"Hey...Emily...how would you handle going on a date with someone that you only considered a friend?" Mabel asked and I looked at her and raised an eyebrow.
"That's a specific question...everything okay?" I asked and Mabel gave out an awkward laugh.
"Well...Gideon asked me out and I don't really feel the same way, but I don't want to hurt his feelings." Mabel explained and I sighed.
"Well it's nice that you agreed to go on a date, but make sure you two stay in the same page. If you're not ready he has to respect that if he doesn't then...well you'll know what to do." I said as I placed a sweater on a pile of many sweaters.
"Huh...thanks Emily!" Mabel said and ran off.
"Mabel wait, you forgot your sweaters...and she's gone." I sighed and shook my head. Kids these days...gotta love 'em.
Later, when I was done with my chores, I came into the family room and saw Mabel and Dipper playing some sort of video game.
"It's not a date-date, it's just, you know, I didn't want to hurt his feelings and so I figured I'd throw him a bone." Mabel said as I came in.
"Mabel, guys don't work that way. He's gonna fall in love with you." Dipper said all knowingly.
"Yeah right, I'm not that lovable." Mable scoffed as she fluffed her hair and shot Dipper in the game. "Kaboom! Yes!" Mabel cheered happily.
"Okay, we agree on something here." Dipper said and the doorbell rang.
"Sounds like your date is here." I said and Mabel ran over and opened it to reveal a horse that caused Mabel to scream and stumble back. The horse then backed up to reveal that it was being ridden by Gideon.
"A night of enchantment awaits, m'lady!" He said, reaching a hand out.
"Oh boy..." Mabel said with slight worry.
"Who brings a horse to someone's house?" I wondered allowed.
"Me, that's who." Gideon said and gave a tip of his hat before leaving with Mabel.
"Well...that happened..." Dipper commented.
"Indeed it did." I replied.
Now we are in the gift shop and hanging out when Stan comes in holding a newspaper that has an article about Dipper and Mabel.
"Hey, hey! What the jackal is Mabel doing in the paper next to that crazy pickpocket Gideon?" He asked.
"Oh, yeah, it's like a big deal. Everybody's talking about Gideon and Mabel's big date tonight." Wendy said, holding up her phone.
"WHAT?! That little shyster is dating my great niece!?" Stan yelled angrily and crumbled the paper.
"I wonder what the new name will be for the power couple. Mabideon? Gideabel? Magidbeleon!" Soos said thoughtfully.
"Uh...maybe the first one, if it even becomes an actual thing." I said and Stan marched off.
"I didn't know! I didn't hear about it and plus, I told her not to." Dipper called back and Stan came back in wearing his suit.
"Yeah, well it ends tonight. I'm going right down to that little skunk's house; this is gonna stop RIGHT now!" Stan declared and slammed the door behind him.
"Dude, wouldn't it be funny if that was a closet, and he had to come back out again and go out the real door?" Soos asked and the three of us stared at him in silence. Soos then opened the actual door.
"Nope, real door." Soos announced and I let out a laugh. I loved that line.
"So what are the odds he comes back unharmed?" Dipper asked.
"Depends on how much Stan tries to or does harm Gideon." I said. Wendy and Soos nodded in agreement. About two hours later Mabel came back holding a lobster that was somehow still alive.
"Hey. How'd it go?" Dipper asked as Mabel walked over to the tank.
"I don't know, I have a lobster now." Mabel said as she put the creature in the tank.
"Who serves live lobster at a restaurant?" I asked Mabel just shrugged.
"Well, at least it's over and you'll never have to go out with him again." Dipper said happily and then saw that his twin was looking at the tank uncomfortably.
"Mabel? It's over, right? Mabel?" Dipper asked in concern. Mabel then turned around.
"BLAARRGG! He asked me out again and I didn't know how to say no." Mabel cried, flailing her arms around.
"Like this: no." Dipper said.
"Sometimes it can be hard to say no." I said.
"She's right, it's not that easy, Dipper! And I do like Gideon, as a friend slash little sister, so I didn't want to hurt his feelings! I just need to get things back to where they used to be. You know, friends." Mabel said.
"Well if you really think you can, it can't hurt to try." I said shrugging. Dipper sighed.
"Yeah, what's one more date right?" Dipper asked and part of me wanted to run to the center of the Earth and scream.
After Mabel came home from the dance, Dipper and I found her pacing worriedly in the family room.
"..I mean, he's so nice, but.. I can't keep doing this. But I can't break his heart. I have no way out!" She cried.
"What in the heck happened on that date?" Dipper asked.
"I don't know! I was in the friend zone, and then before I knew what was happening, he pulled me into the romance zone. It was like quick sand! Chubby quicksand!" Mabel explained and gripped her brother tightly.
"Okay, take a breath Mabel." I said and Mabel inhaled deeply.
"Mabel, come on. It's not like you're gonna have to marry Gideon." Dipper said and Stan then came in wearing a 'Team Gideon' shirt.
"Great news, Mabel. You have to marry Gideon!" Stan said happily.
"WHAT!?" Mabel asked horrified.
"It's all part of my long term deal with Buddy Gleeful. There's a lot of cash tied up in this thing. Plus I got this shirt." Stan then looked down at what he was wearing.
"Ugh, I am fat." He muttered in annoyance. Mabel then screamed and ran out of the room, heading to sweater town no doubt.
"Bodies change, honey! Bodies change..." Stan called after her. I then turned to Dipper.
"You go take of your sister, the grown ups need to talk." I said and glaring at Stan. Dipper didn't need to be told twice.
"Okay, let's me get this straight you agreed to let your grand-niece marry a PRACTICAL STRANGER!?" I exclaimed in anger.
"Well when you say it like that it sounds like a bad thing." Stan said.
"It is a bad thing! You can't just tell your niece that she HAS to marry someone because of money. It would have been perfectly fine if you didn't make it seem like Mabel is forced to have you chose her life!" I exclaimed. Stan got all quite.
"...okay...maybe I took it a little too far...I'll talk to Bud about it." Stan said.
"Thank you." I breathed and walked to the kitchen.
That little outburst felt good. Now that I think about it, Georgia went on a similar rant when we watched this episode. Huh...I can't believe I didn't realize it sooner. Maybe I should keep that in mind for future episodes.
The next day, Soos was tucking a pillow under his shirt and extended his arms out.
"Hit me dude!" He said and the twins charged towards Soos and bounced of his stomach, before laughing happily.
"Feels good." Soos said.
"I'm so glad everything's back to normal!" Mabel said happily and relieved. Three, two one...and phone!
"Your turn." Mabel said quickly.
"Your turn...aw man." Dipper said before realizing that Mabel beat him in whatever that was. He walked past me and answered the phone as I walked outside.
"So, hows everyone doing?" I asked casually.
"Great, now that I don't have to worry about being forced on dates!" ,Abel said and lunged and Soos again. This time Soos fell down when she hit him and Mabel lay of his stomach happily giggling. I couldn't help but laugh myself.
Later, Wendy and I were chatting at the gift shop when we decided to walk outside finding Mabel chewing on her hair.
"How's that hair tastin', buddy?" Wendy asked as we sat down next to her.
"Guys, I need some advice. You've broken up with guys, right?" Mabel asked.
"Nope, I've never dated." I admitted.
"Oh yeah, Russ Durham, Eli Hall, Stoney Davidson..." Wendy started her list of guys she's broken up with.
"I don't know what's wrong with me. I thought everything was back to normal, but I still feel all gross." Mabel explained.
"...Pysche Wirley, Nate Holt, oh, that guy with the tattoos.." Wendy continued, now lost in thought.
"Maybe letting Dipper do it for me was a mistake. Gideon deserves an honest break up." Mabel said.
"That's what I would want if I was dating. I would want them to be honest." I added and Mabel smiled.
"...Danny Feldman, Mark Epston... Oh man, I'm not sure I ever actually broke up with him. No wonder he keeps calling me." Wendy said in realization.
"Uh Wendy, you good?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She said half-heartedly.
"I know what I've gotta do. Thanks for talking to me, Wendy." Mabel said and ran to get her bike and rode off.
"Hey, wait up Mabel!" I called and ran after her as Wendy got a text from the last guys she listed, though we were already out of hearing range.
I had to pick up the pace to keep up with Mabel, since I didn't have a bike of my own. Man, I should have grabbed the golf cart! We soon made it to the old factory and Mabel threw her helmet off and peered in the window to see Gideon attacking Dipper, who was being held by the pendants powers, and shears were floating towards him.
"Oh no!" Mabel cried.
"That pendant must be what's causing it!" I said and Mabel ran to the doors. I quickly followed behind.
"Gideon! We have to talk!" Mabel said as she opened the doors. Gideon turned around happily.
"M-Mabel. My marshmalla. What are you doin' here?" Gideon asked as he dropped the shears, but still held onto Dipper.
"I'm sorry Gideon, but I can't be your marshmallow. I needed to be honest and tell you that myself." Mabel explained.
"I-I don't understand." Gideon said, squeezing the pendant, that unfortunately caused Dipper to choke.
"Uh, Mabel!? This probably isn't the best time to be brutally honest with him!" Dipper choked out. Mable the walked up to Gideon and held each of his hands.
"Hey, but we can still be makeover buddies, right? Wouldn't you like that?" Mabel asked.
"Really?" Gideon asked hopefully. Mable then eyes the glowing pendant and yanked it off him.
"No, not really!" She cried and Dipper fell to the ground and I ran over to him.
"You okay?" I asked and he gave a thumbs up.
"You were like, attacking my brother, what the heck?!" Mabel shouted.
"My tie! Give it back!" Gideon cried and Mabel tossed it towards us and Dipper caught it.
"Ha! Not so powerful without this, are you?" Dipper taunted, but Gideon screamed and charged at us and shoved Dipper out the window. I just got pushed into the wall. The pendant fell by Mabel's feet and the two plummeted down.
"Dipper!" Mabel cried and grabbed the pendant and a glow surrounded her and me. We flew outside and Mabel caught the two in a green aura and the were floating just inches from the ground.
Mabel then lowered us down and released the hold on me. Unlike when Gideon controlled me, this felt much nicer and softer when Mabel used it.
"Listen Gideon, it's over. I will never ever, date you." Mabel said sincerely.
"Yeah!" Dipper said and Mabel dropped the two on the ground and smashed the amulet on the rock, destroying it.
"My powers!" Gideon cried and stood up, backing away in the deep forest.
"Oh this isn't over. This isn't the last you'll see of wittle... ol' me!" Gideon warned.
"Looks like we won this round." I sis dead the twins cheered happily.
"So...what now?" Dipper asked.
"Now we go home and take a break." Mable said.
"Yeah, let's get your bike too." I added and we walked up the hill to grab Mabel's bike and trudged back to the Shack. The twins laid on the couch while I sat beside it. Stan soon hung up the weird clown painting and sighed.
"I coulda had it all." He said and turned to us. "What the heck happened to you three?" Stan asked.
"Gideon." Mabel sighed. "Gideon." Dipper echoed.
"The white haired creep." I muttered out.
"Gideon." Stan glared and walked over to the couch. "Yeah, the little mutant 'swore vengeance' on the whole family. Ha, I guess he's gonna try to nibble my ankles or somethin'." Stan joked and we laughed.
"Oh, yeah. Yeah, how's he gonna destroy us now, huh? Try to guess what number we're thinking of?" Dipper asked playfully.
"He'll never guess what number I'll thinking of. Negative eight, no one would guess a negative number!" Mable cried happily.
"You got that right." I laughed.
"Uh oh. He's plannin' on destruction right now!" Stan laughed and laid on top of the twins as we all laughed happily.
Later Stan and I waked in the family room to see Mable on a step stool with Soos facing her.
"You done?" Soos asked.
"Not yet." Mabel said.
"How about now?" Soos asked
"Almost. And...there." Mabel said and Soos turned around, now covered in sequins. I burst out laughing.
"Let's do this." Soos said and Mabel turned off the lights. Dipper turned on a flashlight and Soos was transformed into a disco ball. He then spun around as music played from nowhere.
"You're all fired." Stan said simply, but I was still laughing.
