Might as well.
Dipper was sitting on the couch, Mabel on the floor, just chilling on their first full day back in Gravity Falls. Mabel's phone rang and she ran off to answer it, leaving Dipper to ponder of how Pacifica perceived their date last night.
Flashback
Dipper was at Northwest Mansion at five o'clock on the dot, in casual but fancy clothing. Pacifica had chosen a pink and black knee-length dress and a pair of silver flats to wear.
"Wow Dipper, you sure clean up nice." Pacifica joked as he helped her into his car.
"Eh I try." Dipper said, trying to hide his blush.
Dipper focused on the road, hoping the blush that was seemingly stained on his face would go away. He had planned out the entire date, with Mabel's input so he didn't make a plan only to mess it up in the end. Pacifica's face showed her awe at his choice of restaurant and her delight of how the night went. They had spent the last couple of hours looking at the stars and just talking. It was just after 10 when Dipper dropped Pacifica off at her home, being rewarded with a kiss and a promise of her stopping by the next day. Dipper, blush now back on his face, stutter his agreement before slipping back into his car and driving back to the Mystery Shack.
End Flashback
Dipper was suddenly jarred from his trip down memory lane by a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" Dipper yelled to Mabel when he heard her starting to move for it.
There in all her purple glory, was Pacifica.
"Hey Dipper!" The teen greeted the man with a kiss on the cheek.
"H-Hey 'Cifica. Come on in." Dipper replied, stepping to the side to let her in.
"You're blushing bro." Mabel said from the top of the stairs.
"Am not." Dipper replied, trying to push said blush down as he followed Pacifica into the living room.
The trio spent the day just chilling out in the shack until Pacifica had to leave in the late afternoon.
"I'll be in our room, bro, if you need me." Mabel said, escaping to said place.
Dipper chuckled at his sister's antics before grabbing his bag, which contained the journals his Great uncle Ford wrote and the one he begged, not that he would admit he did it, Ford to make for him. Dipper kept a slow but steady pace as he walked through the woods to an open meadow, where he settled on a log. Dipper began to compare the notes he had taken in his journal to the ones in the third journal when he saw the cyan glow of a portal opening behind him. Dipper slipped the journals into the bag, slinging it across his shoulder, and waited, watching to see who emerged from the portal. To his surprise, it was Gideon, donning an outfit similar to his own, and Pacifica, wearing an outrageously colorful outfit that even Dipper was sure Mabel couldn't describe it.
"Gideon, are you sure it was safe for us to go through? I mean this world could be really different from our own." "Pacifica" said, tugging on the bottom of her jacket.
"Yes Pacifica, I'm sure. Its the only way to keep the Gleeful twins from winning. But where are they? We followed through the portal." "Gideon" replied, sounding like he had this conversation with her before.
Dipper shifted his weight, accidentally snapping a branch under his foot.
"Who's there?" "Pacifica" instantly called out.
"Has that ever worked before for you?" "Gideon" asked, rolling his eyes.
Dipper, quickly and quietly, made his way out of the bushes when "Gideon" and "Pacifica" turned their backs to him.
"Who are you two? You aren't people who I know." Dipper said, watching as the duo jumped before whipping to face him.
"I'm Gideon Pines, this is my cousin, Pacifica Southeast. Who are you?" Gideon called back, eyes scanning the teen before him.
Dipper's brown eyes seemed to set Gideon at ease before he responded.
"Dipper Pines. Who were you looking for?" Dipper responded.
Before Gideon could respond, Mabel's voice called for Dipper.
"DIPPER! DINNERTIME! Where are you, bro-bro?"
Dipper turned slightly and saw his twin sister struggling to climb over a fallen tree, which he helped her accomplish before turning back to the duo in the meadow.
"Who are they?" Mabel whispered to Dipper, standing slightly behind her twin, so she could retrieve her grappling hook from the pocket of her pink jacket.
"Gideon and Pacifica from another universe. I think the Gleeful they were talking about earlier must be our other versions." Dipper responded.
This got a snort from Mabel before she was leaning into her brother for support as she laughed.
"Why is she laughing?" Pacifica asked.
"Sorry but its kind of hard for me to imagine me and my brother as the villains. Come on. I'm sure if we explain this to Stan and Ford they will understand." Mabel said, wiping a tear from the corner of her eye.
Mabel kept a constant stream of chatter with the reverse version of Pacifica while Dipper and Gideon fell behind.
"You know I don't trust you right?" Gideon asked.
"Glad the feeling is mutual. After dinner, you can explain why you are here in the first place, and hopefully Mabel and I can help you two fix whatever you are dealing with and you can go back to your home." Dipper said, holding a branch out of the way.
Meanwhile...
Dipper Gleeful growled as he watched his other self converse with Gideon Pines and Pacifica Southeast.
"Don't growl. Its not a good look on you." Mabel said, as she pressed her fingertips to his forehead, pressing out the wrinkles.
"Do you prefer me purring to growling?" Dipper asked, turning to look at his sister.
"Very much so. However, we have a much bigger problem now. How are we to get close to our other selves with those idiots near them?" Mabel asked, wrinkling her nose at Pacifica.
Dipper placed a light kiss on the tip of her nose before pulling her up with him.
"Lets find a place to hid before coming up with any plans just yet." Dipper said, holding his sister's hands in his own.
"Fine. You're the boss for this operation. Lets just get it over with fast so I can watch the horror in Gideon's eyes when I gut that brat of his cousin and see the light dim in her eyes." Mabel said, her blue eyes now glowing cyan to accompany the smirk on her face.
"Of course, darling." Dipper purred, his eyes responding to hers.
The duo ran off in search of an acceptable hiding place.
Meanwhile again...
Bill Cipher growled when he felt the power of the Gleeful twins enter his dimension. He might have been weakened in the final fight against the Pines family and their friends but he was the reason the universe remained in balance. He needed to gain back his power so he could contact the version of himself that was responsible for the Gleeful twins. Bill watched as the duo ran off before he shut down the connection. He had to make plans to protect this universe. He may be a demon, but sadly he has grown fond of the exact people who beat him. If he played his cards correctly, the universe won't be ripped apart by the forced entry but he needed Pine Tree and Shooting Star to help when it came to returning it to it former state.
'I need to get enough power to send a message to my other self and to the twins. I hope this won't be more trouble than its worth. Dangerous things could happen if they aren't careful.' Bill thought to himself.
DONE! Finally! I am not dead but I haven't had the time to write and I was stuck for an idea of how to integrate the Reverse characters. I also like the idea of Bill being fond of the people he has constantly harassed through out the series. Speaking of which, I'm sad its over. Anyway, here you all go and soon I'll be adding an interaction between the two sets of twins and Gideon and Pacifica and their counterparts. I think the first that is to come is going to be Pacifica, since she and Dipper are dating so his disappearance or her appearance will raise questions with the reverse characters.
Until I update again, btw I would like to get my review count up to 40 since it is already at 24, Ciao!
Catherine: I'm amazed that she updated at all. Normally she leaves stories hanging.
Catherine Tyler: Rude.
Tyler: Not really. You have been lazy.
