[The video coming on is somewhat accidental. Whoever is fumbling with it was clearly trying to get it out of wherever it was--a pocket? A bag?--and they must have flipped it on in the process. After a few seconds they manage to get it out of wherever it was stuck and the video goes a bit crazy as the ‘gear clatters to the ground.

A soft glow illuminates the room briefly as a Minior comes into view, the red little star Pokemon smiling dumbly at the screen before it’s suddenly grabbed--well, more like hugged, actually, as a little girl comes into view.]

Did it break, Little Dipper? Oh, hey, I think it’s recording--hi everyone that can see this!!

[Mabel grins and picks her ‘gear up with her free hand, her Minior currently tucked underneath her other arm and looking rather pleased about it.]

I’m Mabel and this is Little Dipper! Oh and this is my brother Dipper!

[Cue her turning the camera on her brother.]

Dipper say hi!

[There’s a boy in the background, with a Phantump floating next to him. They seem to be studying where they are. At least they were, before Dipper turns to see the gear pointed at him.]

Mabel! What are you doing? No one needs to see this!

Don’t be such a spoilsport, Dipper! It’s just a new adventure!

[Under her arm, Little Dipper thrummed though whether it was in agreement or just because he could was hard to say.]

Plus we can’t be the first people to end up here…

[By now it should be clear that they are in a jail cell. Dipper folds his arms]

For trying to steal an old ladies kittens? Or should I say, accessory to SOMEONE trying to make off with a bunch of kittens?

If you had helped we totally could have gotten away but noooo!

You shouldn’t have been doing it in the first place! Now we have to break out of jail! ...uh...ignore that last part people ….. I meant serve our time….

[Whispers to Mabel.]

I really think you should stop broadcasting this now….

[Insert a snort from Mabel as she turns the ‘gear back on herself properly and playfully rolls her eyes.]

Don’t mind him! He’s just nervous because the Jenny ladies said we have to stay here for a few days. Anyway, maybe someone out there watching knows how we can get out of here, Dipper! Did you ever think of that??

[Cue her sticking her tongue out as Little Dipper thrums again.]

Yeah and their advice is probably going to be, you got arrested, do your time.

[Meanwhile his own pokemon is examining the bars and lock. Dipper is just going to move to hide the pokemon from the view of the gear.]

Maybe, maybe not! Only one way to find out! [A pause as she looks over at them and narrows her eyes, slowly grinning.] What’s Crafty doing?

Uh...nothing...nothing...just um looking around! Right Crafty?

[The Phantump looks over and nods...very normal]

...You two are trying to break out aren’t you??

Mabel turn the gear off!

Oh you are so going to break us out of here! Go Crafty go! You can do it!

Mabel!

[There is a sudden child scramble for the gear and in the chaos it gets turned off.]

[ooc: replies will be from both Dipper and Mabel. Threadjacking is a possibility.]

Uh....Let's go with that first one.

[Whatever that means.]

I KNEW IT!

[She fingerguns right back showing off her metal arm.]

Well once you're out make sure you keep moving! Those Officer Jenny girls don't mess around. One time I got chased for like three towns because of a little breaking and entering. It's like every time I turned around this one Jenny and her Growlith was there! So I did some community service.

Alright I'll give it to ya this time.

Did she get all the cats or did you get one too?

That's not happened to me... Not since I was a child. [ It was only the very young children at the Orphanage who decided that they were steadfast friends within a day. And he had been one of them once; it was how he and Bob had met, with Bob wanting to take him to see the things he had found in the forest. ]

Do you feel that often?

oh

never heard of that

afraid to ask what else you guys consider bonding time

I wasn't trying to steal any of them. Besides at that point Mabel had all of them shoved into her sweater and we were running.

Yeah it's just a word he came up with I think...or was it Mabel.

Anyway it's a lot shorter then saying Great Uncle Stan all the time.

[Mabel lets out a loud gasp.]

YOU HAVE A ROBOT ARM! That is so weird! Are you half robot or something? Did you lose your arm in a robot war? Does it do any cool tricks?

[Sorry she's thoroughly distracted.]

OK that's fair.

Then again it's not like focusing on running away worked all that well for ya. Gotta get faster little dude.

So she's into animals. Perfect for this world. What's your deal? Who are you? what do you do?

[She beams because she LOVES getting that reaction. Stepping back from the camera she holds it up flexing and showing off the dexterity of her fingers.]

NAH! If anything I'm gonna WIN the robot war. I was designing this super awesome robot for my school science fair and I needed a way to digistruct him into existence and control him easily. The rod I was using was too bulky and weird and it didn't look cool. Then like I got this cut on my arm while working with the power saw and I was like BOOM! Problem solved! I chopped off my arm and created the perfect robot arm to control my new robot buddy! I mean there was a ton of blood and my dad totally freaked out but like...totally worth it!

This is actually like my fifth arm. The ones I make here aren't as durable as the one I had back home.

Yeah well it won't be for long.....

[Not that he's breaking OUT...NEXT SUBJECT!]

What's with the interrogation? I'm Dipper Pines, I like solving mysteries, exploring the unknown, the paranormal and the strange.

And jail or not. This place is awesome! I got a ghost when I woke up here! Back home it would take hours of searching to find a monster and half the time it would just a gnome and most of the ghosts were either annoying or trying to kill you....or both.

Dude haven't you ever played one of these games before? You gotta get as much info as you can sometimes!

Also, you sound like an awesome little dude! Where were kids like you when I was that short? I had to freaking go off world to another planet to find anyone who liked paranormal and strange stuff!

You went to another planet!?

[This is amazing.]

I wish I knew, the only other kid my age who even listened to my ideas on monsters and the paranormal was my sister.

[And half the time she made fun of him. Though Gravity Falls had changed that....somewhat.]

I was more confused than mad.

[You know McGucket, Dipper, you know how that can happen.]

He gave him back after I talked to him for awhile and showed him how to use his Pokegear.

You just..chopped your arm off so you could control your robot????

[Okay that's a little crazy. And a little cool. Mostly crazy.

But Mabel can dig it.]

That is super hardcore. You are totally going to win the robot war.

ARE YOU AN ALIEN?

Yeah....that sounds like him.

Will you ask for this one instead of stealing it?

[That use of 'get' is very ambiguous, young lady.]

I see. So I'm still the furthest ahead. For me, your birthday was several months past by the time I arrived here.

[He'd already been on the boat. He'd been able to get a taste of that life he'd come to realize he'd wanted all along before he lost it. But, y'know, he's fine.]

Really? ....oh wow. That must be frustrating.

I still have to talk to Mabel more to figure out what she remembers last. But we're going to talk about that later. Once we get out and have some privacy.

A class what now?

[Cue an eyebrow raise. That's a new one. Interesting all the same, though.]

And... yeah, you pretty much hit the nail on the head. Name's even a pun on golem.

Oh the journal I had back home had all the ghosts sorted into different types based on levels of danger. Like a Category One would be pretty harmless but a Category Ten might try to kill you.

Ghosts that becomes pokemon would be a totally new classification.

[Once he gets a journal he's going to be doing a lot of writing.]

....wait really? What's it called? A ...stonelm?

Yeah. Then he stayed up on the roof for awhile and used his Pokegear on random people to find out their secrets. It was a good day.

You're damn right I am!

But don't worry human! If you curry my favor I'll spare you from the fate the corrupt meat sacks in suits and ties will share when my robots overtake the planet!
