Ahha… puns

Did Preston Northwest ever try his luck with Dipper/Alcor as he did with Bill?
Psychic Singularity Ch 19
Hank had lost track of how long they had been walking and just what
direction they had been going in. The nightmares were leading the way,
while he and Gravity Falls were distracted keeping Uncle Dipper’s
Curiosity and Adventurer under control.Despite the whining of
both aspects Hank had kept the child leashes, and they hadn’t managed to
get out of them yet. Hank wasn’t questioning how the two aspects hadn’t
managed to wiggle free yet, all things considered – well, okay, he was
questioning, just not out loud where they could hear him and get ideas.It was a good thing that they hadn’t been attacked yet, and Hank was grateful for that, when he had a chance to think.
Still, with all the noise they were making, that was a bit of a miracle.
Gravity
Falls, for their part, was still apparently amused by Curiosity and
Adventurer’s antics, and Hank suspected it was distracting Gravity Falls
from the discomfort or downright pain that came from the circumstances
they found themselves in.Gravity Falls seemed to be extra amused
by how often Curiosity tried to climb trees, resembling a giant cat on a
leash as he did. If it weren’t for the leashes, the two of them would
have lost the aspects long ago.Up ahead, That of Teeth and Bessie
went still in the way only a supernatural creature could, as quiet and
frozen as a statue. At the ends of their leashes, halfway up a tree and
inspecting a bush respectively, Curiosity and Adventurer mimicked them,
all four looking in the same direction.Sharing a glance with
Gravity Falls, Hank shifted his weight to his good leg, hefting the
staff Aunt Candy had given him that he’d been using as a walking stick,
getting it into position for an attack.Hank didn’t allow himself to relax when two more of Uncle Dipper’s sheep shoved their way through the underbrush.
Psychic Singularity Ch 13
When the wind hit, Pacifica somehow found herself sandwiched between two of Dipper’s nightmares.
Erschreckendmörderdesgrasderamflaumigstenist
Irreaffentittenturbosuperdupertyp Bammelbegierdedergoldenehufe dug
claws and wings deep into the pavement on one side while Steve 2 did the
same on the other, skidding down the sidewalk and leaving grooves in
the concrete until they hit the side of a building.When
the wind stopped and the world went back to as close to normal as it was
going to get today, they were the only ones left on the street.Slowly
they inched their way out away from the concrete wall, still feeling as
though the ground was going to drop out from underfoot at any second.Finally
Pacifia stood, giving her hair a quick flip. “Ugh, seriously? Fine.
We’ll do it alone. Just me and a pair of nightmare sheep.” She looked
over at the two nightmares flanking her, raising a critical eyebrow.
“Okay, who’ve we got?”The two nightmares puffed up with
indignation, following with offended huffs when Pacifica started
walking. “Look, I don’t remember the names of all Dipper’s pets, all
right?”The nightmares exchanged looks, proud, smug looks, as if reminding themselves that it was true, they
had names, unlike every other nightmare out there, names their master
had…well, not always approved of, but accepted. A look that quickly
turned disgruntled as they realized they’d been called ‘pets’.“Steve 2”
“Erschreckendmörderdesgrasderamflaumigstenist
Irreaffentittenturbosuperdupertyp Bammelbegierdedergoldenehufe” they
said, and Pacifica paused, turning to look at
Erschreckendmörderdesgrasderamflaumigstenist
Irreaffentittenturbosuperdupertyp Bammelbegierdedergoldenehufe blankly.“…I
remember hearing about you,” she said, manicured hand on outthrust hip.
“You’re still getting called Ershie. Not even remotely sorry.”

Three Year Anniversary
It’s three years since the end of the world and- what is that?
Mabel Pines takes a deep breath. It is not enough, she has to take another and another. In the corner Dipper Pines has forgotten how to reform himself into human shape. He is a mass of black bile, a thousand eyes, and glowing gold areas of energy leaking out from every curve.
“We’ve got brown hair, brobro. Remember?” she says finally. The mass, Dipper it’s still Dipper, writhes in unreality. She smiles at him. “We’ve got brown hair and brown eyes.You’ve got a birthmark on your forehead.”
As she speaks Dipper closes his many eyes and shifts to match her description. The skin is a little too waxy. The suit is a little too clean.
Dipper mimics her deep breath. “I think I just had a power up.”
“Awesome!” says Mabel. “But you made yourself waaay too tall.”
Their conversation is punctuated by a small explosion in the subbasement.
It’s the end of the world and Candy Chiu holds the fire extinguisher high. They have just prevented a being from another reality from mating with Dr. Pines face.
She isn’t sure she likes Interning with Dr. Pines. He doesn’t seem to believe in the laws of physics or OSHA compliance. He seems to be taking the existence of aliens in stride. She’s not sure what he’ll write on her letter of recommendation to be an engineer. It is however a great chance to try out all her different ideas for weapons. The extinguisher she’s holding also doubles as a flame thrower.
It’s the end of the world and Stan Pines is sitting in the corner of the lab laughing at both of them. He appears to be rooting for the monster. When Dr. Pines finally pulls it from his head Stan punches it back through the newly made portal. They tease each other. The brothers are comfortable enough to joke again.
Candy can’t wait to see what happens next.
It’s the end of the world and Tad Strange has replaced his arm with a lobster claw. Whoopsyadaisy!
It’s the end of the world and Pacifica Northwest is braiding Old Man McGucket’s beard. She’s starting to think she likes helping people; likes taking care of them. If only she were any good at it- the braid turns into a tangle and gets all sorts of hair in his soup. He plays a song for her on his banjo.
“Oh my darlin’,
Oh my darlin’,
Oh my darlin’, Pacifica~
She’s gainin’ her independence-
‘Cause she’s really terrifica~”
Pacifica covers her mouth but still can’t stop the giggles.
It’s the end of the world and Grenda is kissing a vampire. He’s a little bitey. If kissing every kind of cute boy IN THE WORLD wasn’t on her bucket list she thinks she’d probably deck him. She thinks it over and decides to deck him anyway.
It’s the end of the world and Wendy’s back in town. It looks smaller somehow, now that she’s been all around the country beating down nasties. She finds the people here seem kinder where before she’d found them boring. Most of her old crew has gone on to their next thing; Robbie and Tambry went off to different colleges, Lee and Nate wanted to be cops which still blows her mind, even Thompson is in some kind of SynthCountry Pop Group touring round Sacramento.
That’s okay. When it matters Wendy always knows where to find the beating heart of Gravity Falls.
She wanders to The Mystery Shack, ignores the ‘Closed for Honeymoon!!! :)’ sign on the door, puts her muddy feet up on the counter like she used to. “Can I get some service here?” Wendy shouts as a cool as she can. “How’s a girl supposed to get ripped off around here?”
“Wendy!” Mabel levitates down the stairs. Her hug feels like it comes with an extra unseen weight. “Dipper’s here too. He’s just a little tired out today.”
When Wendy closes her eyes she’s sure she can feel the beating of wings, smell the copper tang of blood, sense an eye looking at her. She ignores those instincts and high fives the air.
“It’s okay, dudes,” says Wendy. “It’s not the end of the world.”
Perhaps she’s right.
We’re still here.
Taming the Wild Pt 3
Steve Cordawin had seen the episodes of both Behind the Myth: Gravity Falls and Taming The Wild
(at least, the obviously heavily episode that had been released and
then immediately pulled from the air) set in Gravity Falls. He had heard
of the difficulties Kurt was having shooting any more episodes (or
anything at all) in the small town after the disaster that was his first
and about the lawsuit from Pacifica Northwest over the interviews he
had planned to air that had somehow been replaced by the uncut versions
at the last minute. He had heard of how Dr. Gallucio had so easily slid
into the Falls like a missing puzzle piece, a fact reflected in the
episodes of Behind the Myths set in the town. Admittedly, the
episodes didn’t go in depth yet, but they showed a level of love and
care beyond what even Dr. Gallucio usually allowed onto the screen.And
he wanted in. The ultimate challenge, an amazing adventure, and he
would get to see what Dr. Gallucio was up to. No downsides!Not
even the demon – that was the most exciting aspect of all! A demon
wandering around town, and everyone just…lived with it? It didn’t want
to attack and kill and cause chaos? It was unheard of, it was amazing,
he wanted to know more and he wanted it on film!And there
were so many animals in Gravity Falls that didn’t live anywhere else!
…Steve hoped they had a good hospital there, because he could see
needing it quite a few times.Grinning, Steve sent off a
text to Dr. Gallucio, who he had in his contacts as a research option –
with all the new supernatural creatures coming out of the woodwork, it
was good to have someone around he could ask about them, and about which
ones were sentient and which were actually animals, so he wouldn’t go
stalking people just trying to live their lives.He sat
back to wait…Dr. Gallucio was always slow to answer texts…with
bouncing knee and filled with nerves. Waiting was the worst part.
Taming the Wild Pt 2
Dipper looked down at the video in his hands, turning it over and
over in obvious confusion. “Jamie…how did you even get this?”Jamie
shrugged nonchalantly, though his cheeks were dusted with pink and he
was fiddling with his glasses. “Kurt might…be trying to brag,” he
said, free hand gesturing vaguely. “That he, you know, managed to make
an episode about Gravity Falls before I did? Even though I’ve been here
longer? And wanted to rub it in?”“And he just…gave you
the video he made?” Dipper asked incredulously. “Of the unaired episode?
Of the show he made that he thinks is competing with yours?”“Well,
just a copy,” Jamie modified. “I just…he was bragging about getting
‘the Dreambender’ on film, so I figured all of you should watch it with
me, and see just what he’s planning on before this gets out. Sort
of…ah…early damage control? I didn’t watch it yet, I don’t know just
what he saw. He doesn’t do the research I do, so he pumps out episodes
faster, but…and he can be pretty arrogant about the quality of what he
does.”“The big problem is if he found out names or how
we’re all related,” Dipper said honestly. “I…if he found out mine it
would be a problem and no mistake but…if they find out about Mabel and
everyone else…”“Let’s just watch, yeah? And worry
after,” Jamie said, wilting when Dipper looked at him. “I…might have
already been worrying about it for a few hours? And maybe panicking?
Just a little?”“…yeah, you get the notebooks and popcorn and I’ll round up everybody else,” Dipper said.
Richard and Pacifica
Snippets of their Friendship.
Richard had always had a bit of an admiration for Pacifica Northwest –
just about everybody knew where she had come from, what she had given
up for her ideals (even if it was unlikely she was going to be cut off
forever, Northwest pride in bloodlines being what it was – her point
remained, and she was stubborn enough to continue to say no, no matter
what her parents promised).For Richard, the admiration was a little more personal. Vixen,
the show that had catapulted Pacifica to stardom, had been predicted to
be a failure. It was Pacifica’s acting that had saved the show from
being the mess everyone had expected, and Richard had always hoped that
he’d someday have it in him to save a show the way Pacifica had.Well, his curse was that apparently, his ‘I hate everything about
this and pray for everyone involved, including myself, to find the sweet
release of death’ portrayal of Alcor (which was only about half acting)
meant that the show he was saving was Twin Souls. Twin freaking Souls.Richard never thought he’d get to meet Pacifica…but then again, how
could he ever have imagined the circumstances that lead to it, meeting
her through his friendship with the Dreambender, of all creatures?Richard really hadn’t expected to see Pacifica again after that
impromptu dinner with her and Alcor, even though they had exchanged
numbers. That was practically professional etiquette, bolstered by the
fact that they both knew and got along with a demon and therefore might
need that backup.Still, Richard was very surprised when he did get a text a few days
after meeting Pacifica, asking him to come meet her at another out of
the way diner if he were free.
The Twin Souls Premiere
Of all the things she could have worn to the premiere of the Twin
Souls movie, somehow Richard wasn’t surprised that Crystal chose to put
her Mizar knitted sweater on over her designer gown.Little
wonder people kept getting her and Mizar confused. It would have been
amusing…if people hadn’t kept confusing Richard and Alcor.Seriously – human, demon. Why were they so hard to keep apart for some people?
Richard
was standing firm that he wasn’t wearing the sweater Mizar gave him to
the premiere. He hadn’t sold it yet, but he still thought he would. Not
that he didn’t appreciate having a hand-knit sweater, but one with
‘Alcor’ across the front?He didn’t need any more fuel to
the fire that he was really Alcor in disguise, ridiculous as that was.
Richard had hinted his thoughts to Alcor, and gotten an equally vague
go-ahead, although he had a feeling Mizar might be a tad disappointed he
broke up the set. Or she might be amused. It was hard to tell
sometimes, with Mizar, when she was teasing and when she was serious.Richard
also stood firm that he needed two invitations to the premiere. It
would have been four, but Pacifica had her own through being a financial
backer, and Mizar’s husband, though willing to put up with quite a bit,
drew the line at actually attending the premiere of the Twin Souls
movie.Richard had told Crystal and Pacifica that he was
inviting Mizar and Alcor so they wouldn’t also invite them, and swore
both Crystal and Pacifica to secrecy when it came to his invites.Perhaps
it was a bit petty and mean of him, but after the hell that was
shooting this movie, he wanted a little revenge. And he had a feeling
watching this movie with those two was going to turn it from painful to
hilarious.
