Summary: Dipper and Mabel reunite with their Grunkle Ford as they celebrate their technical 14th birthday

Rating: Probably PG at the worst?

Log:

[Birthdays are important to some people. Especially when you've shared every single birthday with one other person for as long as you both can remember. That's why Soos has spent approximately all his remaining Pokédollars on a slightly-temporally-questionable party for Dipper and Mabel.]

[Set up on the beaches of Cherrygrove are a few cheap tables of food - sheet pizza and chips and trays of that salad nobody really likes, and Pecha Pit Cola, and later in the day, of course, a cake. More notable is the rented PokéPetting Zoo, featuring a large pen of rideable Skiddo, with smaller pens of Buneary, Tepig, Swinub, a few Seel, one Snorlax pulling double duty as a trampoline bean-bag chair, and, perhaps regrettably, a small swarm of Drifloon.]

[There haven't been invitations or anything, but the beach is hardly a private area, and the more the merrier, right?]

Comments

OTA harass the birthday boy

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Dipper is actually quite impressed with what Soos has thrown together on such a short notice just for the twins.

Of course food is his first stop. How can a kid pass up pizza? Or soda? OR CAKE? He's not going far from the table when eating. Wish him a happy birthday all you want to, or come chat?

Otherwise he will be visiting the various Pokemon in the petting zoo. The Skiddo seem to be harder to ride than he thought since he keeps falling off of them. The Buneary swarm Dipper, so you might hear a screech for help as he's being just... well, probably cuddled to death.

And then there's the Drifloon. Just... why is something so dangerous so harmless looking?]

I'm watching you... You're not dragging anyone off today!

OTA!

[It might be strange for a grown man to be so incredibly hype about a petting zoo, but Ford Pines is not your average grown man and he has never seen most of these Pokémon before. He has his breeder's notebook out and can be seen sketching the various assembled 'mons with great interest. That is absolutely not what this notebook is intended for but until he can get himself a proper high-quality journal it has to serve as his sketchbook. It's fascinating to him that some are so clearly analogous to Earth animals, and yet others are clearly their own organisms.]

Now, hold still -- I'm almost done.

[It's funny how quickly he's fallen into speaking to Pokémon like people, but if his partner is any indication than many of them, if not all of them, are very intelligent indeed.]

Harass the birthday girl!

[Mabel wasn't sure how Soos was able to get everything done so quickly but whatever he did? She was sure impressed by it! Especially when they arrived not too long ago and were slowly getting the hang of everything!

But as Mabel wandered around, she could be seen eating as much food as she possibly could! After all, it was her birthday and she was going to party like there was no tomorrow! Come and chat? Or watch her shove as much candy or pizza in her mouth as she could?

Outside of that, she could be seen at the petting zoo and making sure she got to pet all the Pokemon over there! Watch her jump on the Snorlax? Or have a swarm of Drifloon hovering over her face? Or even watch her Eevee not getting along with a Tepig?

Or one could just watch her dancing in the middle of the place while she hums a certain song in the background.]
