Watching the Moon and Sun.

Rated: K+

While still very young, Soos is asked to watch over the two royal twins. Should be simple, right? Not even close...

Outside, in the palace of the Royal Twins, a serious conversation was going on in the castle courtyard.

"… Alright, and you're sure you can watch them?" The King asked his head guard, Soos. He looked much like Dipper, with his brown hair, teal eyes, and smile. The only difference was his thick stubble and crinkles around his face, showing he smiled a lot. His crown and robes were black as the night he ruled, his dark wings folded back. His cape was a very dark blue, with hints of white that fluttered around like stars.

"Yes sir!" Came the every loyal reply. Soos still looked the same, except with his large gold armor fit his size and bright green plume on his helmet.

"You're positive? I don't need to pack them extra blankets?" Ah yes, you could definitely see where Dippers worry for every outcome came from between the two parents.

A female laughed and patted her husband's shoulders. Her long, brown hair that went to her waist framed her slender figure, with streaks of purple, blue, pink, and green. Her dimples were obvious because she smiled so much. Her long, white dress that trailed behind her shimmered and glowed, echoing the golden cape and winners laurel she wore. Her belt was a solid gold sash that draped down, and her pure white wings were totally different then the stark blackness of her husbands.

"Honey, it's fine." She chuckled. "I trust Soos completely. He's the head guard after all." Now you can see where Mabel got her carefree spirit.

"Well…" After a long thought, he smiled, his teeth as white as the stars he raised. "Alright. We really do appreciate all the help, Soos, while we're going away. You know the time to feed them? Put them to sleep?"

"Jason!" She laughed, playfully flicking his shoulder. The man laughed in response to her action.

"I'm sorry, Kristen." He said. "I'm just worried. They're the heirs to the thrones- and our powers."

"It's alright, hon." She said. "We'll cross that bridge when we get to it, but if we don't leave now, we'll miss the Council!"

Jason seemed to remember this, and with another smile, both husband and wife took off into the night. Soos looked on with a smile, as he walked back inside. He thought about his task as the Sun slowly rose up.

Taking care of two toddlers, should be easy, right?

Within 24 hours, Soos had never been more wrong in his life.

Dipper and Mabel Pines, twins and soon heirs to the throne, were quite a curious case when they were young.

Before they even knew about magic, each one had been fascinated by the time of day: Dipper slept through most of the day, and stayed awake all night, while Mabel did the opposite.

Dipper and Mabel knew they were somehow related, because they simply didn't understand being alone. When one the twins parents took them out of their playroom, the other burst into tears and didn't stop crying until the missing link was back.

They still had their wings, but they were much tinier then they are now. Mabel's were slightly bigger and pure white, while Dippers we're slightly smaller than Mabel's, still retaining their navy hue.

The pair of twins were inseparable.

Until Dipper found out about magic.

He was playing with Mabel in the large plastic castle like they always do, Mabel being 'Pwincess Spawkwe Gwitteh Giwl' And Dipper being a wizard. They were fighting a 'dragon' (made out of foam blocks) when Mabel accidently pushed him off of the castle.

The prince of the night didn't know how to work his wings, so they were useless. Dipper's face was about to hit shag carpet, and he had a random fear burst, as he waited for the 'FOOM' of his body making contact with the ground and ready to burst into tears when-

Nothing happened.

Dipper looked at the ground, and noticed he was hovering an inch above, his body's frame surround by a mysterious silver-blue glow. Mabel was staring in shock at her brother, thinking he really was a wizard. Dipper gently dropped himself to the ground, and the glow disappeared.

He stared fascinatingly at his hands, wondering what on earth that glow was, but ever since then, Dipper was obsessed with finding out.

He quickly made the connection in his tiny brain that the glow appeared when he was concentrating very hard, or in a random burst of fear. So whenever Mabel was asleep and his parents weren't around (which was often, considering they had a kingdom to run), Dipper would go into the play area and find your average, small, wooden block, with a triangle on it with a single eye.

He would focus very hard at the block, attempting to make the glow appear. On the first night of trying, he could barely make the glow appear without breaking out into a sweat and tiring. The night after that, he learned to just lift the block a small bit, just barely turning it over to another side, but two and a half weeks later, Dipper could not only lift the block, but also move it around as he saw fit.

Coincidentally, his sister had her own run-in with magic the same day.

He was playing with his sister, and was trying to grab a toy from a shelf, the same toy Mabel wanted. He tried to take it, but Mabel tugged harder. At last, not willing to give it up, Mabel screamed "NO!" as loud as she could, sending a wave of golden energy at Dipper, sending him flying along the shag carpet.

Dipper stared at Mabel, shocked at what she did. Never in his life had he been shouted at, much less upset his sister. A second later, he began to sniffle, and then to softly cry.

Mabel stared, horrified. She didn't know what just happened, but it made her extremely upset that she attacked Dipper and regretted doing so. She waddled over to her brother, and hugged him.

Well, it wasn't really a hug, since she just wrapped her arms around him, and in a soft voice said 'Path Path'. Dipper sniffled, but smiled, and did the same.

'Path Path'.

That very night, Dipper woke Mabel up, (who could barely keep her eyes open), and walked her over to the practice area he used. He gently lifted the block with his magic, and made it zoom around. Mabel stood there, enamored by the glow on the block and how Dipper was able to move it without picking it up. The glow illuminated the dark room, making it look like a shooting star indoors. He gently placed it down and nudged her forwards.

Mabel was confused. What did her brother want? She couldn't replicate that.

But within a week and a half, under the cover of night, and with Dipper's gently coaching, Mabel was able to replicate the result.

But this isn't about the twins back story- it's about Soos facing the Moon and Sun.

Soos quietly walked into the play room, making both of the twins heads turn to him.

"Zeus! Zeus!" The said, running over to the portly head guard.

"Heh heh. Wassup, doods?" He asked the twins, each with big, shining eyes.

They leaped on him, letting them hug him, and then set them off to play on their own. He watched them contently, only scolding them when necessary, and helping them along as they needed.

"Can you read us a story, Zeus?" Dipper asked the man. Soos smiled and replied "Sure, dood! What book do ya want me to read?"

"I- I was - could tell us a story - instead of reading?" Dipper shyly requested.

"Hmm, only if you say the magic word!"

"Abracadabra?"

"No?" Soos was startled how Dipper even knew that word.

"Pwease?" Dipper asked

"Alright-y, dood! You think Mabel might want to hear it?"

Dipper nodded eagerly, and called for his sister, who promptly came over as soon as possible. They each sat in front of Soos, waiting for the words to come tumbling out of his mouth.

"Once upon a time…" He started, trying to think up something as it came along. "There was… a princess!" He couldn't help but notice Mabel instantly perked up at this, but Dipper hung his head low.

"And… a wizard!"

Dippers head shot up like a rubber band.

"And… the princess and the wizard were twins!"

"Like us!" Mabel said.

"Heh heh, yeah, doods. And, and they lived in this big palace, that was big and white and very pretty."

"How pretty?" Mabel questioned the head guard.

"VERY pretty, Mabel." She seemed satisfied with this answer.

"The ruled over an EQUALLY pretty village, in a faraway land. One day, an evil dragon came, and he didn't like the village or the castle. He wanted it GONE!"

The twins gasped at the thought of the perfect kingdom gone by the mean dragon.

"Why?" Mabel asked.

"Because the dragon thought the princess and the wizard were too nice. The dragon wasn't nice at all. He went stomping all over the village, destroying it. He was going to destroy the castle with his great, blue fire, when-"

"Cookie?" Mabel asked him. Whenever Soos came to visit, he always smuggled some cookies from the kitchen.

Soos checked his pockets, but came up with a frown. "Sorry doods, I guess I forgot." Both twins frowned at this, and Soos immediately felt bad- he knew the twins liked him, but they loved the kitchens chocolate chip cookies (and secretly- so did he). An idea quickly formed in his mind about what to do about this cookie conundrum.

"Doods, wait!" he said, making both of the twins look at him, curiosity sparked in their eyes. Soos looked back and forth, like he was going to tell a secret, than whispered. "Come closer."

Both twins looked at each other, but curiosity shining bright, they advanced to the man-child. Soos looked around again, then huddled with them.

"I know a secret place to get lots of cookies. But in order to get there, you need to be very quiet."

Both twins looked at each other, then smiled and nodded, showing they followed. They thought Soos just magically appeared with cookies. They never actually thought about where they come from, though.

"Ok, I'll bring you to the place, but in order to do that, you need to do what I do, alright?"

Normally, the twins would've lost interest by now, but the prospect of so many cookies kept them hooked. They nodded, they're faces serious.

"Alright, doods. Follow me, and be very quiet." He whispered, as he slowly opened the door and tip toed outside. Mabel and Dipper shushed each other, and followed Soos's example.

Now do bear in mind the twins never left playroom except during important meetings, so the castle was a whole new, uncharted territory to explore. They looked around in wonder at the white, marble hallways, casting light from the windows the twins couldn't see out of.

Soos lead the twins down the corridors, making them stay on task when they seemed to drift off. He finally saw the kitchen, but a guard was near by, standing by the entrance. Soos backed up, and with a guiding hand, back the two overly excited twins up.

"Ok, there's a guard there. I'll distract him while you slip inside that door. Ok?" Soos pointed out the plan, and the twins nodded vigorously. Soos walked by the guard who stood at attention.

"Soos, sir!" The soldier stated. "The kitchen is safe. Beg my pardon, sir, but, shouldn't you be watching the twins?"

"Stand down, soldier." Soos said in a firm, but gently voice, smiling. "I put the twins to sleep, so they should be conked out." His smile grew wider when Mabel took Dippers hand and they ran towards the opposite wall as fast as they could. They slid along the wall and entered the room as the guard replied "Uh, yes sir. Is that it, sir?"

"That's all, soldier. Anything else unusual?"

"No, sir."

"Very good. Now if you excuse me, I'm going to get a cookie from the kitchen." With that, Soos slipped into the kitchen, leaving the guard slightly confused, but resumed his position.

Back with the twins, never before had they ever seen the kitchen. The sights, the smells, everything enticed them. They quickly hide under a table cloth as Soos walked in. The kitchen was empty, all the cooks were on break, but left the pans sizzling and food cooking in the oven. Soos scoured the counter top, and found the target:

The cookie jar.

"Ok, doods." He said, leaning down under the table cloth and lifting it up. "The stash of cookies is right over there. If something bad happens, just help me, ok?" The twins nodded again, excited that the plan was going well.

Soos ambled over to the cookie jar, and attempted to get it opened. The lid was stuck on tight, and Soos had to pull hard against it, making a pan bang against a hook.

"Is someone in there?" a women asked, sounding rather old. Soos panicked, looking for some kind of escape, and found a place under a table cloth. He dived under, just in time to see a women open the swinging door and look around. She had grey hair, lipstick, a mole on her chin, and one eye shut. Lazy Susan might not have the best vision, but she could sure cook well.

She let her good eye wander around, noticing something underneath a table cloth. She walked over towards Soos's direction, making him hold his breath, but let it go once she passed him. He suddenly feared for the twins as Lazy Susan walked over in that direction.

"I finally found you two rascals…" Soos held his breath, and the twins held each other, quivering in fear. She quickly revealed the table cloth to find the twins-

Of raccoons.

"Ya varmints been eating all the gosh darn food in this place, you two are gonna get me fired!" She scolded, walking out proudly while two raccoons dangled limply from their tails in her hands. When she shut the door, everyone finally let out a sigh of relief, and escaped their hiding spots.

"Doods, that was like, super close." Soos said with a smile. The twins nodded vigorously. He triumphantly held up the cookie jar, and the royal duo smiled as well.

Heading back into the playroom, Soos let the two kids munch all they wanted on the cookies, but he soon realized why they're parents struck a deal with only one cookie per child.

Mabel was going insane, running everywhere, screaming "COOKIES!" And Dipper was using his magic (which Soos found out about after trying to take the cookie jar away. Getting nailed right in the face with a wooden block hurt more than he pictured) to build the tallest tower out of seat cushions- and then try to climb on it.

While Soos was attempting to catch Mabel, Dipper was cheering her on in pure joy. When Soos was just about to catch her, though, Dipper nailed him every time like a professional baseball player.

"And… gotcha!"

"WAH!"

Soos had succeeded in catching Mabel but lifting her off the ground and flinging her onto his back. Dipper, seeing his sister, readied another small volley of building blocks, until Soos speedily grabbed him, too, making him lose his concentration. He was sweating from effort, but he was happy for the exercise.

"Alright, you two doods need to calm down and, like, chill." Soos said, carrying them gently into the crib.

"So, what do you doods do to fall asleep?" Soos looked around the crib for something, until he found a small mobile with a moon, sun, and star on it. He hung it up, made sure the night-light was on, and he cranked it up. He felt the soft melody float along as Mabel and eventually Dipper closed their eyes, and slowly drifted to sleep. The melody softened, signifying it was over, and Soos slowly cranked it up again. He sighed contently, and was about to leave when-

"Zeus?" a small voice asked. The leader turned around to find Dippers piercing blue eyes. "The stowy- how does it end?"

Soos completely forgot the story, but smiled when the young boy said that.

"The wizard and princess made a gigantic cookie shield, and they defeated the dragon. They rebuilt the kingdom, and they lived happily ever after."

Dipper nodded, accepting the story, and turned around in the big Sun and Moon blanket.

"Goodnight, Dipper."

"Goodnight, Soos."

Soos stopped short.

Dipper called him by his real name. He whirled around in the doorway, and softly asked him "What did you call me?" But the boy was already asleep. Soos quietly closed the door and went outside in the hallway, going outside in the castle courtyard, and staring up in the sky.

"Were the kids good?"

Soos whirled around and saw Kristen and Jason standing there. Soos smiled in relief and in joy, and said.

"They had a blast.

YAY!

I wanted this chapter to have some craziness, some brother/sister fluff, and some humor.

Hope this delivers!

And, yes, that is the origin of the awkward sibling hug!

And also, yes, I made the parents myself, but Jason and Kristen and Mabel and Dippers voice actors – the more you know.

But here's the thing, guys: I can't do requests unless you PM me, or else my comment section is gonna be spammed with requests (like the first four are. LOL.) So, if you guys could just PM me your request instead of commenting it, I'd be super happy. (And super thankful!)

(And, yes, I'm doing a Mabill, so the person who's spamming me with that can stop. You know who you are.)

Don't worry, though, the next few Oneshots are gonna be Halloween themed, so WHOOP WHOOP!

Also, pick up your Kristen and Jason Action Figures as well! That way you have the whole family!

Of course, Favorite, Follow, PM me requests, and of course, REVIEW!
