"Alright, wellness check! Are either of you experiencing any portal sickness?"
"I'm feeling great Doctor Pines. Dipper, are you okay?"
"Feeling great, thank you Pacifica. Great Uncle Ford, are we where we're meant to be?"
"...Yes. All environmental conditions match the projections the scanner made within 98%. That means we're going to need the anti-arcane radiation pills. One moment. After taking them, initiate weapons check."
"Ugh, I hate those things. Tastes like horseradish and goes down like a marble."
"Here Pacifica, take it with a little water, goes down easier."
"Right, that's mine, one for you Dipper, and here's yours Pacifica. I'm going to survey the area from that hill while you two get these down."
"Yes Doctor Pines."
GULP
"Thanks Dipper, that made them a lot more palatable."
"You're welcome Paz. Now, let's see what's going on here... Hey Great Uncle Ford! ...Oh no."
"What is it Dipper?"
"Based on that expression on your face and the fact that you didn't put the binoculars down to answer me, I'm guessing we have company?"
"Astute as always Dipper."
"So, what is it this times boys? Angry natives with spears, more bug aliens with lasers, or has Bill Cipher decided to just cut to the chase and drop a building on us this time?"
"...None of the above. Everyone brace yourselves!"
"Ack, my hat!"
"If anything's broken I'm suing!"
"Hi there!"
"Oh geez, Paz I think I hit my head because I'm seeing double..."
"I saw the portal you guys came through a mile away, you must be interdimensional travelers! So, who are you, where'd you come from!?"
"Great Uncle Ford?"
"I... think we can give a little information, we are the visitors here. Hello young lady, my name is Stanford Pines, and these are my research assistants, Dipper and Pacifica. We've traveled to your world from a place called Earth. We would appreciate it if you could tellUUGGGGHHH!"
"Great Uncle Ford!"
"Personal space mean anything to you lady?"
"YOU'RE FROM EARTH!? Oh my goodness I didn't think that was possible, this is amazing!"
"Hey, crazy girl, could you let go of the old guy before you break his spine?"
"Oh, hehe, sorry, of course! I'm just so excited!"
"Doctor Pines, are you alright?"
"I can see the light Dipper..."
"Can... can you tell us who you are, exactly?"
"Oh, right, I should introduce myself. Mom always tried to teach that was an important courtesy..."
"I'm a magical princess from another dimension!"
AUTHORS NOTE
Yep, we're going there.
I'll admit, when I started writing this story, I didn't really have an endgoal to it. I was intrigued by the possibility the actual ending to the show shot down, so I figured I'd write a story about it. That being said, I didn't really have an end point to it, outside of the Pines Family fighting the Bill fragments over and over. This partially accounts for why it took me so long to update at certain points. However, while I was writing this, I was also trying to fill the Gravity Falls shaped hole in my heart with Star Vs The Forces of Evil, and at some point it just seemed natural that the next step of the story was to visit Mewni and inject my versions of the GF characters into that show's season 3.
If anyone dislikes this as a direction to take the story in, I understand and realize I probably could have foreshadowed this better, and hope you have enjoyed yourself up until now. For those who wish to keep reading, this story will continue in "Three More Can Keep A Secret," published in the Gravity Falls/Star Vs crossover section. I submitted the new story before going over to post this chapter, so if you're reading this as soon as it pops you'll probably need to wait a bit for "Three More" to show up, I apologize. I can only hope you give these further adventures a try and that you've enjoyed yourselves so far. Thank you for reading.
