The Prompt Jar gave me “Eyes” earlier this month and somehow, this is what came out.

The first clue they had that Dipper wasn’t just a ghost came the first time he sneezed.
They’d been sitting and watching an old movie with Grunkle Stan (their parents had arrived the day before but they didn’t understand the way Grunkle Stan did, thought Mabel was imagining Dipper to try and cope with whatever had happened, so the twins were sticking around their Grunkle as long as they could) when Dipper sneezed, just as tiny and cute and kittenish as ever.
And accompanied by a burst of blue, demonic flame bursting out over Dipper’s entire body.
