Chapter 6: McGee Makes Candy Think About Kissing
"Alright, so who is next on the list?" Lefty said.
"Well, I did say that Team Supernaturals is going first, and since Gretchen is out, Candy Chiu is up next." Edward said.
"I hope the wheel lands on Dipper Pines, the twin brother of Candy's best friend Mabel Pines." Atlas said. "People are saying that he and Candy are meant to be."
"We'll just wait and see." Lefty told Atlas.
"Alright, guys. Come closer so that you can see the results." Edward said as Rye, Lefty and Atlas came closer to his direction. Edward then types Candy's name on the screen. The image loads and shows the head of a light-skinned girl with black long hair and glasses. Edward then presses the button to spin the wheel. The wheel rapidly spins until it slowly lands and stops. Much to Atlas' disappointment, the wheel on an image showing the head of a light-skinned boy with spiky brown hair.
"Well, would you look at that? The wheel landed on McGee, Gretchen's cabinmate." Edward said.
"Aww!" Atlas exclaimed in disappointment. "And I thought the wheel was gonna land on Dipper."
"Well, it didn't. And it's a good thing it didn't happen." Lefty said. "I believe McGee is more suitable as a boyfriend for Candy Chiu than Dipper."
"That's right, Lefty." Edward said. "And do you want to know why this is the case, Atlas?"
"Yeah!" Atlas responded.
"It's because throughout Candy's time on Gravity Falls, she is shown to be romantically interested in handsome guys, and McGee is one of those examples. Unlike Dipper, who has a thing for older girls like that Wendy girl, McGee seems interested in girls around his age, as shown when McGee attempted to kiss Gretchen on their last day at Camp Lakebottom, only for her to sneeze on him. If Candy and Gretchen were to switch places, then instead of sneezing on McGee like Gretchen did, Candy would kiss McGee if he attempts to kiss her first since he is a handsome boy and that his personality and appearance kinda reminds her of Dipper a little bit. Not only that, but Gretchen would have made more human friends than usual since the only human friends she truly had during her time in the show were her cabinmates McGee and Squirt. Also, Candy's character would play out slightly different from Gretchen's in that Candy would end up falling for McGee, knowing how attractive he can be in her perspective. Gretchen, on the other hand, wouldn't be as competitive to Pacifica like she was to Suzi since Mabel is Pacifica's main rival in her view. Candy wouldn't fear chipmunks the same way Gretchen did. And every other role that Gretchen and Candy played in their own universe would play out differently in each other's universe." Edward explained.
"That includes Candy's involvement in McGee's rivalry with Jordan Buttsquat, right?" Lefty said.
"Yes, that includes her involvement in the rivalry between those two." Edward said.
"I certainly do believe Candy and McGee would make a great couple because McGee would've made Candy his girlfriend by the end of his time on Camp Lakebottom if she was there." Lefty said.
"Me too!" Rye exclaimed in agreement. "It's not like McGee would break Candy's heart like Dipper did in that episode."
"It really isn't. McGee doesn't like to break people's hearts, and since Candy is an ideal match for McGee, he would try in his heart everything to avoid doing that." Edward said.
"I wonder what Suzi, McGee's older sister, would think of the idea that her brother is in a relationship with a girl like Candy." Atlas asked.
"I'm pretty sure that she could care less about her brother's love life and more about herself and ruining his life." Edward responded.
"That's exactly what I expected!" Lefty exclaimed.
"Do you think the creators and voice actors would approve of their potential relationship?" Atlas asked. "I'm worried that McGee and Candy would be made fun of as a couple due to them having different backgrounds."
"Of course, Atlas. There's nothing wrong with interracial dating. If two people from different backgrounds love each other so much, then everyone, including family members, must tolerate it or else chaos will erupt from all parties. If Niki Yang, Candy's voice actor, supports Dipper and Candy as a couple, then she should have no problem supporting McGee and Candy's relationship as a couple. The same can apply towards Scott McCord, McGee's voice. Am I right?" Edward explained.
"Right!" Rye, Atlas and Lefty exclaimed in unison.
