A/N: Call this a one-shot dark AU of TAU, based off of a previous canon-compliant (as much as there is a canon) one-shot I wrote called The Offer. In the original, a demon offers Dipper a deal that he refuses after a flash of insight as to what accepting would ultimately mean.
In this version, he doesn’t get that insight. He has to live it.
Be warned, it really is dark, and though I skip sharing any details it is understood that intercourse happens, as well as blood and death and various horrible things.

couldn’t be twins then father and daughter would do just as well)…“Do we
have a deal?” the succubus murmured, her face a scant inch from his. There was
no further thought, nothing but Mizar and his pain, and if this was the answer,
the way to break that endless chain of agonizing loss—“Yes,”
he said, and held stock-still as she kissed him to seal the bargain.For
Mizar.
