Yes, I know, I should be finishing my other stories...
BUT WHO CARES I AM RETURNING FROM THE DEPTHS OF WRITERS BLOCK.
so here I present to you for the approval of the Midnight Society of the Blind Eye:
Gravity Falls: RoleSwap AU.
"UGGGGGGHHHHH." Stanley Pines made a loud groan as he collapsed into his brother Stanley's lap face first. His face was buried in his twins' thighs but he still continued to moan. "I'm so borrrrreeeeedddddd." He continued, voice muffled. "Are we there yet?"
Stanford Pines rolled his eyes as he put a bookmark in the book he had been reading. Stanley could be so immature sometimes; You'd think he was actually 6 years old instead of twelve. "Yes, Lee, we're almost there. Look, you can see the town coming up down that hill."
Stanley hadn't moved, his face pressing painfully into Stanford's right leg. "What's it look like?"
"Maybe you'd find out if you freaking GOT OFF MY LAP." Stanford gave his brother a light push, successfully getting him off of his lap. Stanley gave a humph that he didn't mean and acted like he was angry, pouting and turning away, crossing his arms. "Fine, Bro-Bro. I can take a hint."
Stanford smiled and rolled his eyes again as he returned to his book. Sure, it would only be ten minutes or so until the bus they were riding reached the little town of Gravity Falls, but a lot could happen in ten minutes. He and his twin would get off the bus, but then what? Their dad hadn't said much before they left to spend summer vacation with some family member, but Stanford may not have been paying attention. He has been known to get so lost in thought that-
"Ford!"
Stanford was brought back to earth with a start. He blinked behind his Wayfer glasses. "Huh?"
His twin pointed out past the bus windshield. "We're here."
Gravity Falls, Oregon was a small valley town with little shops clustered together in a circle surrounded by a large forest. There was one building in those woods farther away from the others- it looked kind of like a tree house but on the ground. Stanford was immediately intrigued. "Hey, Lee. See that brown building in the woods?" The bus was getting closer to the town, making the brown house easier to see.
"You mean that brown smudged-thingy? Bro, that's the Mystery Shack."
"What?"
"Jeez, were you paying attention at all when dad told us about the plans for this summer? That's where we're staying. With our great aunt Mabel, remember?"
Just then the bus stopped by the nearest shop. "All off for Gravity Falls!" The bus driver called. Stanford stood up, pulling on a wheeled backpack and grabbing a duffel bag that read "GLASS SHARD BEACH". Stanley grabbed his suitcase and backpack as well, grinning and running ahead of his brother to get off the bus first.
Only one person stood at the shabby bus stop. It was an old woman, older than 50 but not older than 65, stood straight up with her hands on her hips. She was wearing a light pink fez decorated with a black tassel and a Shooting Star, and a blue pantsuit with a tie that matched her hat. She wore square glasses, which were covered in fingerprints, and, for some reason, glitter.
The woman gave a grin with the siblings got off the bus, taking note of their appearance. She knew she was going to need to know which twin was which.
One kid was slightly taller than the other. He was giving a huge, kind smile that showed silver braces, had traces of freckles on his cheeks, and had the traditional messy Pines hair, though it looked like he attempted (but failed) to tame it. He wore a red and white striped tee shirt with the sleeves rolled up, as well as overalls (with a red Nintendo DS in the pocket, she noticed), and red sneakers. At least this kid looked happy to be here.
The other looked a little more nervous. Observance and intelligence clearly showed in his chocolate brown eyes, which were surrounded by rounded Wayfer glasses. He had freckles as well, but his hair was messier and he didn't seem to have braces like his brother. This kid wore a white tee under his overalls, and light blue converse sneakers. Several books were under his arm; he seemed like a real Poindexter. There was something...off...about his hands... The boy noticed and quickly hid his hands behind his back.
The woman grinned at the pair of twins. "Hey there kids! I'm your Gruantie Mabel!"
Stanley grinned back and cheerfully returned the greeting, while Stanford gave a small smile and raised a brow. "What's a Gruantie?"
"S'Called a Portmanteau. Great and Auntie, y'know? Makes it quicker to say- an' time is money you know!"
"Cool." Commented Stanley. "So are we going straight to the Mystery Shack?"
The woman smirked, nodding. "And you'll be starting work there, too."
Stanford blinked. Work? At a place called the Mystery Shack? For a whole summer? Oh man, was this gonna be a lonnnnggggg summer...
This is gonna be an AU parody of the actual show WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME
