"Dipper, I've come with news."

Mabel Gleeful stood in the doorway to the Gleeful Twin's dressing room. She was wearing a light blue jumpsuit and a deceptive smile on her face.

"What is it?" Her twin brother asked, using the thick southern accent that the twins shared. He didn't even bother looking up from his journal.

"There's a new kid in town." She sat down in front of her mirror, playing around with a curling iron. "Going to stay over at the Mystery Shack for the summer."

"And why does he concern us?"

"I think that he could be the one."

Dipper sighed. He was used to his sister talking about love, but it was distracting her. "Mabel, I know that boys are important to you at this stage of your life, but-"

"Not the one to fulfill the love plan." Mabel grinned evilly. "The one to fulfill the real plan."

"We need somebody fully powerful." Dipper stated, the same way he had hundreds of times before about the other possible candidates. "Somebody who can give us what we need. And every other time, the boy just didn't fit."

"But this one is different." Mabel insisted. "This one wouldn't be staying that the Shack if he weren't supposed to fill the prophecy."

"Alright." Dipper agreed reluctantly. "I suppose we could try this new boy."

Gideon Pines POV

"I'm heading out." Aunt Stephanie adjusts her fez. "You kids can order pizza or whatever. Soos and Robbie will be here to work in a few minutes."

"Bye Mom!" Pacifica waves and flashes a brace-face smile. "I hope you have a good time!"

Stephanie grunts and walks out the door.

"Where is she going?" I whisper.

"It's better not to ask." Pacifica answers. She pulls out a pile of cardboard disks, stacks them into a neat pile, and then knocks them down with another disk.

"What are you doing?" I ask after being hit by one of the disks.

"These are my POGS!" She says, like that makes things clearer.

"Come again?"

"Oh!" She laughs. "I forgot that most people don't know about all of my 90's stuff. POGS are these little disks, and you stack them up, and you throw another at them…"

She stares at the blank expression on my face.

"It's more fun with two people. Wanna play?"

"No, thanks." I keep reading through a mystery book.

A few minutes later, the door jingles open.

"Dude, I'd be sort of scared of her if I were you, dude." A male voice says.

"I am scared of her!" A younger voice clarifies. "But she just sort of…likes me!"

"Soos!" Pacifica jumps up and hugs the man-child. The other boy is skinny and wearing dress clothes.

"What's up, kid!" Soos does the Zack and Cody handshake with Pacifica. "So I guess you're not going to Camp Anawanna this year."

"Maybe next summer." She giggles. "Hi Robbie!"

"Hi, Pacifica." The guy (Robbie, apparently) notices me sitting at the counter. "Who's this?"

"I forget to introduce you. Sorry!" She points towards me. "This is Gideon Pines. He's my cousin, and he's staying here for the summer."

"Hi." I force a smile.

"So, Robbie." Pacifica stacks her POGS into a pile again. "Who are you scared of?"

"Wendy." He says quietly. "She's been really crazy about the relationship lately."

"Dude, if the scares you, just break up with her." Soos nods. "Easiest solution."

"Great idea, Soos!" Pacifica grins.

"My wisdom is both a blessing and a curse."

"Who, exactly, is Wendy?" I ask.

"She's this girl in town, and she-"

"Robert!" A voice booms from outside.

Robbie sighs. "Speak of the devil!"

The door bursts open. A girl with red hair, a green plaid dress, and a ticked off expression walks in.

"Robert, where were you?" She barks. Robbie shrinks down in his seat. "You were supposed to pick me up!"

"I…I…" He stammers.

"Look, if we're going to be boyfriend and girlfriend, we have to do this right, okay?"

"I'm just, gonna…" Robbie stammers, "Polish the…Sascrotch."

"We'll go with you." Pacifica and I say in unison.

Once we're in a small room filled with fake oddities, Robbie sighs and collapses.

"This is exactly what I was afraid of." He says. "Her, I mean. You guys can go now."

"It's okay." Pacifica sticks her hand over my mouth. "We'll stay here. There's no customers anyway."

"Thanks, guys." He looks up. "And I think you're going to like this place, Gideon. Did you know about all of the crazy stuff going on here?"

"It's all fake, right?" I ask. "Like the stuff in this room."

Pacifica shakes her head. "There's real stuff out in the forest. I can show some of it to you tomorrow. I think this summer is going to be super 90's-ly awesome!"

I think for a second, and then answer. "It just might be."
