I won't! It's a twin's honor and I promise I'll be super duper careful around here!
[Especially now she made it her mission to make sure her brother get out of Cerealia unharmed. Although, how far she was going to go was another problem]
But you promise that you won't get hurt again right? Like, you don't end up what happened back there?
[ What had happened to him before...it had taken not just a toll on himself, but on his friends as well. He'd never forgive himself if he put Mabel through that kind of pain.
No, he would just have work extra hard, be extra smart to make sure neither of them get hurt again. ]
[She said before walking straight to the kitchen. As she opened the fridge, she started to look around for a certain magical item that lurked around in such a cold container! But she managed to get it out? Behold, the most amazing thing that Dipper as ever seen!
...Which was a box of ice cream really]
Who wants a midnight snack? You know you want to, it's so written all over your face!
Whoa, whoa, whoa - [ Hers isn't the only voice that's gone higher. Dipper abandons the ice cream scoop to wave his hands dismissively. ] I never said anything about - uh - it wasn't like that!
[ His face has also now turned a very obvious shade of red. ]
I just liked her, okay? If never really went anywhere beyond that, and...she's gone now. [ A beat. ] I think you would've liked her a lot, though.
Well...she was pretty great. [ Said a little sadly, but fondly, too. He still misses Xion a lot, but if anything good came from dying, seeing Xion in the Nexus gave him hope that maybe she would return one day. After all, Mabel had, and he'd seen her in there, too. ]
Her name was Xion, and was kind of...the nicest, kindest person you could ever imagine. She was always so happy to just talk about whatever and never, ever judged me even when I was sort of being stupid.
[She said with a giggle before nudging him. Despite her jealously, it was nice to hear that he found someone here. She might have gone home but it was good to hear that he had someone]
But I'm glad she was happy around you! She seems like a really sweet gal, although I kind of wished I could have met her.

I'd have to be crazy to say no to midnight ice cream.

[She said before shoving said ice cream box over to him before getting a bunch of bowls and spoons out!]
Besides, it seems like you really deserve it and let the ice cream take you on a magical dream into rainbows and sunshines!
no subject
Ooor maybe just to dreams of capers and mysteries. I think I'll pass on the rainbows.
no subject
[She said before trying her best to scoop out said ice cream! Although, it didn't take long before she gave a small frown!
Why yes, the ice cream was totally frozen and it was being very mean right now!]
no subject
[ BUT ONLY ONE. And as he watches her struggle with scooping the ice cream, he can't help a snort of laughter. ]
It miiiiight be just a bit frozen still. Want me to try?
[ LET HIS (puny) ARMS DO THE WORK. ]
no subject
[With that, she gave said box of frozen ice cream to the poor boy]
But I got to warn you, it's a lot harder than you think scooping all that ice cream! It's practically like a brick!
no subject
That girl I mentioned? She worked at an ice cream parlor.
no subject
[Then suddenly she said with a smirk]
But look at you, Dipper! You went out and got yourself a girlfriend while I was gone, didn't you?
[Again, her voice just a tiny bit higher! Although, at the same time? She couldn't help but feel a hint of jealously there
Just...a tiny bit]

no subject
Not that she'll say anything about it. It was probably better to talk about the more happier things after all that sad stuff!]
Then what was she like? It sounds like she must have been really great if you liked her that much! And especially if she managed to top Wendy!

[ And even if Xion didn't remember, like Mabel didn't...he'd make it work. ]
no subject
You think she'll remember? If not, I could always play matchmaker for you!
no subject
Youuuu really don't need to do that. Hopefully she'll just remember.
no subject
Because we gotta be prepared should a date happen! And make it the most romantic thing ever!
[Complete with candles in the moonlight and long walks on the beach! ...Or the pool around the garden. That works too]
no subject
[ He can at least TRY to put off Mabel matchmaking for him. ]
no subject
It's not an if but a when! Because true love conquers all!
no subject
Of course you'd say something like that. I guess we'll just have to wait and see, huh?
