Long in the future, after Alcor has come and gone, the souls of Dipper and Mabel are closer than ever, usually reincarnating in the same family, and often as twins. And, at least once, because the universe has a sense of irony, they are joined by a familiar third soul. Triplets – two boys and a girl.

The two brothers squabble constantly, each calling the other his “greatest enemy” – they trick each other, prank each other, try to make the other accept one-sided deals, steal each other’s things, sabotage each other’s plans, collaborate together when they discover a new mystery or code and then try to keep the answers for themself. Their sister is loved by them both, and is often torn between trying to mediate between them or just letting them get on with it because nothing stops them.

Despite outside appearances, the siblings are actually very protective of each other, because no one messes with their greatest enemy except them, and no one, NO ONE, messes with their sister, period.

HC: I just thought, what if one of Bill’s reincarnations is Reverse!Bill? Like, William or something, and he actually makes friends with Alcor or RMabel. And he’s shy and maybe he actually helps or something?

Sounds a lot like Toby, the precious cinnamon bun that he is. We are going to give Alcor emotional cavities if we keep this up. 🙂
