The White Eyed Twins

In Which We Set Up The Story [Prologue]

When Marinette, later known as Mabel, and Marri, later to be known as Mason or Dipper, were born, they had these gorgeous white eyes. A pale grey rim around their iris, and a sudden switch to the black pupil. Mrs. Pines loved their eyes, she always said they were the most beautiful things in the world.

The nurse who delivered Marinette and Marri agreed to keep it secret so the poor kids didn't become government test subjects, and when Mrs. Pines left the hospital, she kept both children close, safe. She raised them, home-schooled them, and never let them leave the house without a pair of sunglasses.

Over the years, she saved up the money to buy a pair of brown contacts off the black market, permanent ones. When Marinette and Marri were seven, they started their first year of school. Marinette was a bit behind the other kids, and Marri seemed to be exceeding thanks to the homeschooling.

When the twins turned eleven, Marri had the guts to come out as transmasculine to Mrs. Pines, with the name Mason. He said he thought that, despite knowing he could've chosen any name, it felt right to keep an 'm' name to stay close to his sister.

[that definitely wasn't me justifying him being born with an M name and then picking an M name cause I know not all if not most trans people don't stick with a name similar to their birth name]

Later that year, Marinette came out as Genderfluid, said they wanted to be called Mabel, and told Mrs. Pines they wanted to buy pronoun jewelry.

Mrs. Pines supported both of them wholly, they all went out clothes shopping the next day and Mabel went online and bought all the pronoun jewelry they could [Pines, necklaces, bracelets, hairpins, rings] without blowing their allowance.

It was somewhere between their eleventh and twelfth birthday that Mabel began calling him Dipper, and it just stuck for some reason. It felt right, so Mason found himself with two names.

On top of that, Mrs. Pines got married early that year, and Mr. Pines was the most supportive man Dipper and Mabel ever thought they'd meet.

The day they went to Gravity Falls for the worst best summer ever, Mrs.and Mr. Pines gifted them each a binder, Mabel's was a pale pastel rainbow, and Dipper's was skin-colored. They made sure to tell them binding rules, don't sleep in it, don't exercise in it, avoid getting it wet as it's not a swimsuit binder, and don't wear it for longer than eight hours at a time.

Then summer came and went, Mabel and Dipper came back with trauma.

Mrs. and Mr. Pines didn't let them go back for the summer of their fourteenth birthday when the twins began having nightmares about a month after they returned, and when it was obvious Dipper's anxiety and paranoia were severely worse and he refused to let anybody touch him.

They convinced their parents to let them go back the year of their fifteenth and things were significantly less traumatizing. Mabel and Pacifica started dating, Candy became the gnome queen, Dipper and Ford bonded and Grunkle Stan almost lost the Mystery Shack like three times.

Our story begins the next year. Dipper's on T now, Mabel has fallen into a punk aesthetic and new powers are emerging for the White Eyed Twins.
