Dipper and Mabel where assigned Pen Pals. Surely something they'd enjoy. Mabel seemed to enjoy the idea of talking to strangers despite all of her online accounts in which she chats with them anyways.

Dipper was in hopes for a smart girl. Somebody who liked mystery and lead a sort of interesting life. A person he could tell about his Gravity Falls adventures and NOT think he was a lunatic.

Mabel just wanted to use glitter pens.

And of course her puffy scratch and sniff stickers that she'd gotten from Candy last year on their birthday.

Excitedly the twins opened their envelopes with their pen pals information within. Mabel shreiked with excitement at hers, dancing around the room with glee.

"Dipper, he's older! And cute! " She screamed in his face, making the envelope crash to the floor, exposing the information card.

Frisk, a orphan from Mt. Ebott Ireland. No last name, no specific gender and a picture including a small scraggly haired person wearing a blue and pink stripe sweater. Their eyes where closed in the picture of all things.

"I think it's a girl, Dip are you into orphans? " Mabel teased.

With a groan Dipper snatched Mabel's card from her hands. I'm it was a picture of a boy with a mop of black hair and a red shirt with a star. His name read Steven Quartz Universe and he was from Beach City, Washington.

Dippers only thoughts where on how much Mabel would swoon over the kid. Mabels included that, but also the thought of what sticker to put on her first letter.

With a sigh Dipper grabbed Mabel's only black pen and began on a letter to... It.

Dear Frisk,

I would say that's a strange name, but I do go by Dipper and know of a kid named Gideon. I live in California, but in the summer I reside in Gravity Falls Oregon. It's a small town just west of weird, and I know for a fact you've never heard of it.

I'd never heard of Mt. Ebott either, but stranger things have happened. Really strange things. Like realizing you have a great uncle that your parents or other great uncle had never mentioned.

Anyways Frisk, I'm a twin. My sister Mabel is almost the polar opposite to me and I'm pretty sure she's gonna include a smelly sticker. Bewarb of its smells, one of them smelt like eggs...

I hope you'll return my letter, being that you live in Scotland I do know it will take a while.

With best regards,

Dipper Pines

Mable deadpanned at her brother, " That's a boring letter Diplet. I hope next time you include more about me.. And the mystery shack... Or ya know, me! Steven's gonna love mine. "

She handed him a card full of glitter and a smelly star sticker at the top next to a drawing of her and Steven.

" Why does the star smell like burnt rubber? " Dipper asked her as he wiped the glitter from his clothing.

She shrugged, " I donno. It's what stars smell like I guess. C'mon we have to start unpacking I wanna go see Candy and Grenda!

With two stamps on each envelope. Dipper shoved the two into the mystery shack mailbox, trailing behind Mabel in hopes of an even better summer than the last.
