(y/n)'s p.o.v.

"The tiger was badly injured in the explosion, but we repaired him with a fist!" The tv exclaims as the logo Tiger Fist appeared on the screen, all of us shouting happily for him. That's when the ads started playing and a familiar one came on, Soos speaking up as he pointed at the screen. "Hey look! It's that commercial I was telling you guys about." "Are you completely miserable?" We hear the narrator ask as the images switch to a man crying on his bed as he shouted "Yes!" "Then you need to meet... Gideon." 

A silhouette of Gideon with his name under him and a question mark above his name showed on the screen. "Gideon?" Dipper asks before Mabel chimes in. "What makes him so special?" I roll my eyes at the commercial guess this fraud is really back in town. "He's a physic," The commercial says, piquing Mabel's interest more as she tilts her head to the side making a confused dog noise. "So don't waste your time with other so-called man of mystery," A video of Grunkle Stan coming out of the outhouse played before bolded letters slammed over him reading FRAUD.

 Ha! Like they had room to talk. "Learn about tomorrow, tonight at Gideon's Tent of Telepathy!" A few messages came up that we ignored before the ad actually ended. "Wow! I'm getting all curiousy inside," Mabel says excitedly when Grunkle Stan walked into the room. "Well don't get too curiousy. Ever since that monster Gideon rolled into town I've had nothin' but trouble!"

Soos and the twins look at me for confirmation and I nod my head slightly in slight agreement since technically the only trouble Gideon has caused was his tour bus taking Stan's parking spot at the mall earlier. "Well is he really physic?!" Mabel asks. "Well, I think we should go find out," Dipper says getting up.

"Yeah, why not either way we'll be entertained," I say getting up as well when Grunkle Stan steps in our way. "Never! You're forbidden from patronizing the competition. No one that lives under my roof is allowed under that Gideon's roof." "Do tents have roofs?" Dipper asks and I smile and shake my head no. "I think we found our loophole. Literally," Mabel exclaims pulling out a string that was tied to itself creating a hole. 

Dipper's p.o.v.

That night (y/n), Mabel, and I went to give Gideon's Tent of Telepathy a visit. It looked like the whole town showed up. "Step right up folks put your money in Gideon's Physic Sack!" Bud Gleeful, Gideon's father shouts as we place our money in for admission. We get some snacks and sit down and I start to look around. "Woah, this is like a bizarre version of the Mystery Shack. They even have their own Soos," I point to the guy that looks almost like Soos but his name tag read Deuce.

"It's starting. It's starting!" Mabel exclaims, shaking me as the lights dimmed down and we all faced the stage. "Let's see what this monster looks like," I mutter crossing my arms when (y/n) mutters "Not exactly what you'd expect, and he's worse than Stan."

 A tall shadow looms over the curtains before they rise to reveal a small kid wearing a baby blue suit with a sparkly white cape his hair was big and it was lifted, just why? I make a face and (y/n) smirks muttering a told you. "Hello, America! My name is Little Gideon," He claps and doves fly out of his hair, and the crowd cheers.

"That's Stan's mortal enemy?" "But he's so whittle," Mabel says. "Ladies and gentlemen it is such a gift to have you here tonight, such a gift. I have a vision. I predict that you will soon all say awwwww!" I raise an eyebrow. "Here we go..." I hear (y/n) mumble and out of the corner of my eye, I see her roll her eyes. Gideon turns his head around before facing the crowd with a puppy dog pout, almost everyone awed as (y/n) let out a sigh shaking her head and I give him a really face. "It came true..." 

Mabel said, star-stricken by this sham. "What? I'm not impressed," I say. "You're impressed," Mabel argued and I shook my head no. "I told you he was worse than Stan," (y/n) tells me and I chuckle, nodding my head in agreement. "Hit it, Dad!" Music starts playing and Gideon throws his cape into the crowd. "Oh I can see what others can't see~ It ain't some sideshow trick it's a natability~ Where others are blind, I am futurely inclined~ And you too can see if you was whittle old me! C'mon everybody rise up! I want y'all to keep it goin'!"

He sings and suddenly everyone including me and (y/n) who wasn't falling for his act stood up. "Wha?! How did he?" I start to ask when he starts another verse. "Keep it goin'! You wish your son would call you more~"

Gideon points to an old lady who shouts "I'm leaving everything to my cats!" "I've sense that you've been here before~" I look at Officer Blubs, he was wearing and holding a bunch of Gideon merch. "What gave it away?" He asks and I roll my eyes mumbling "Oh come on." "I'll read your mind if I'm able, somethin' tells me yer name Mabel~" He points to my sister who asks in shock "How'd he do that?" 

(y/n) and I stare blankly at her, her name was stitched onto the sweater she was wearing. "So welcome all ye!!! To the Tent of Telepathy~ And thanks for visitin'...Whittle old meeeee~" Gideon finally finishes his song and the crowd goes wild. "Thank you! You people are the real miracles!"

After a few more tricks the show ended and we left the tent. "Man you were right (y/n) that kid's an even bigger fraud then Stan, no wonder our uncle is jealous," I say on the way home. "Aw come on his dance moves were adorable and did you see his hair?! It was like whoosh!" "You're too easily impressed," I tell Mabel and she punches my arm jokingly and we start tickling each other.

Mabel's p.o.v.

It was the next day and I was bored so I looked at my bedazzle gun. Hmmm. A few minutes later I race downstairs and find Dipper and (y/n) flipping through the journal again. Man those two have spent a lot of time together...It's adorable! "Check it out you two! I successfully bedazzled my face! Blink. Ow..." I say blinking, the fake diamonds on my face hurting. "Is...That permanent?" (y/n) asks worriedly while Dipper shakes his head no. "I'm unappreciated in my time."

We hear the doorbell ring Grunkle Stan soon shouting "Somebody answer that door!" "I'll get it!" I shout wiping off the diamonds before opening the door to see Gideon. "Howdy!" "It's whittle old you!" I exclaim excitedly. " Hehe, yeah my song's quite catchy...Now I know we haven't formally met but after yesterday's performance I just couldn't get your laugh outta my head," He tells me and I smile asking "You mean this one?" I start laughing. "Oh what a delight when I saw you in the audience I said to myself now there's a kindred spirit, someone who appreciates the sparkly things in life."
