Okay, something I glanced at on the internet said Lilo was 6 in the first movie, but I'm going to continue to take artistic liberties and say she was seven like they said she was in one of the sequels (Not Leroy and Stitch, because that was three years after Stitch! The Movie).


"You're right about this town being strange. There's some weird crap you really, really need to know about."

"I'm listening, you can tell me anything." Lilo's whole life had been weird crap. She could lecture on aliens and interplanetary laws. She could explain things about the galaxy people would never expect. Abnormal was her normal. But she wasn't expecting demons.

"Just a few weeks ago, a demon from another dimension attacked our planet. Everything that's happened this summer has been a little, well, off. Some friends visiting for the summer found this weird book that detailed much of the weirdness in Gravity Falls, and we followed it to shapeshifters and unicorns and Bill."

"Bill?"

"The Demon. The one thing in Gravity Falls you absolutely cannot mess with. The world almost ended. People almost died. My family almost died... Bill is beyond powerful. We tried to destroy him, but the truth is, we don't know if we did. We don't know if he's still lurking in the shadows, waiting for someone else to puppeteer. Bill can possess you, can infiltrate your brain and trick you, can turn you into statues, and values no one outside of himself. He's the definition of evil."

"I'll stay away from him."

"Okay, well he looks like a triangle with a top hat."

"That's what's so dangerous?"

"Trust me, he's a sadist with an agenda. The only thing he wants is world domination and he'll use anyone to get it."

"You're pretty brave, Wendy, taking on a demon."

"Well, Corduroy's are tough, and I wasn't alone. I had my friends. It was surreal, fighting for the sake of the whole entire world."

"I kind of know how that feels," Lilo admitted, causing Wendy to look over in surprise.

"Are there interdimensional demons in Kauai?"

"No, but there are aliens." If Wendy was going to be so open about Gravity Falls, Lilo might as well return the favor.

"Aliens?" Wendy seemed a little bit surprised, but only a little given what she'd lived through.

"Surprisingly, Kauai is a kind of hotspot for aliens. Mainly just the experiments-"

"Experiments?" Wendy interrupted.

"I'll explain. Stitch, and 620-ish more creatures were designed by this somewhat evil genius, Jumba, who is kind of like my uncle now. At first Stitch and the other experiments were evil, but after Stitch became a part of my family, the Galactic Federation saw the experiments could be reasoned with if they only found the place they belonged. And so it became my full-time job to rehome the aliens released upon Kauai, which I've been doing since I was seven." Wendy gaped at her.

"I guess it's a little weird..." Lilo confessed.

"Weird? It's awesome! When I was seven I was still eating fireflies."

"One of the reasons I came here was because aliens visited this place once. It might be one of the reasons the town is so strange, in fact, it probably is. That, or the whole interdimensional thing. Before I met Stitch, I never thought that there might be life on other planets. And now to think that there is life in other dimensions? That's wild to me."

"Yeah, it's pretty weird. My friends Mabel, Ford, and Stan have all visited these alternate dimensions, as for the rest of Gravity Falls, well the dimensions kind of came to us when the apocalypse began."

"That's crazy... Thanks for telling me about that. I'll have to talk to the Galactic Federation about other dimensions. See if that's something I should look into."

"If I were you, I'd avoid other dimensions. That kind of thing is dangerous. And I'm like, the queen of doing dangerous things for fun around here, so I really mean it."

"Thanks, Wendy, but I'm going to talk to the Galactic Federation anyway, just in case. Hey, didn't you mention that there was a book about all the weird stuff in this town? Do you think I could see it?"

"Man, I'm sorry Lilo, after the apocalypse the author deemed the journal too dangerous and got rid of it. I don't know if it even exists anymore. I wish I had more for you to go into your research with..."

"Oh, it's okay. I know where to start. Maybe after the tour tomorrow..." Wendy leaned against the wooden wall, glancing at a little bit of moonlight peeking through the cardboarded up window.

"It's kind of cool to know that there's something up there. It does make me feel a little small though. You know... You feel a little inconsequential when you know you're not the only dimension, or the only planet, or even the only Wendy Corduroy." Wendy confessed.

"Even if there were a hundred million Wendy Corduroys, you'd still be perfectly unique, and uniquely important. Not many fifteen-year-olds can say they helped stop the apocalypse."

"Not many seven-year-olds can say they became ambassadors for outer space."

"It's not a competition," Lilo laughed, nudging the other girl. Wendy smiled gratefully at the encouragement.

"Thanks, Lilo. I don't usually get the chance to talk about this kind of thing. People usually expect me to be so put together, and I appreciate that you don't have those expectations."

"No problem, Wendy. You can come to me anytime." Nani had always supported her, always been there to listen, it felt good to give that to someone else.

"Thanks. You've had a long day, and you'll have a long day tomorrow if I know my brother, so I'll let you sleep."

"Good night!" Lilo lay back when Wendy left, not bothering unpacking or even changing, she was just so tired. When she'd drifted off, she heard something akin to laughter, saw glowing eyes... But surely, it was just the wind... Surely there was nothing in her head that wasn't supposed to be there...
