Don't Mess with Curses

The Twisted Pasta Conversation and Other Important Things

Dipper's pov

       I met up with Wendy and Mabel as planned at the designated spot. I helped them cary the supplies to the place I had picked out and built my fort and Wendy made the pack mule joke wich I disliked very much. 

       As soon as we walked into the clearing, we set down our stuff. Wendy handed me the tent bag and I held it open and they grabbed the tent, steaks and, rods. Mabel and I connected the rods together as Wendy unfolded the tent. Mabel dug around in her bag and Wendy thread the rods through the tent. We pulled the tent up and clipped the rods in place. Wendy put in the tent steaks after I tried jamming them in with my cleaved hoof and ended up giving myself a lot of pain. Not fun, would not recommend doing that. Mabel finally found what she was looking for. Matches. 

        "Fire!" She said with a crazy look in her eyes. 

        "Uhhhhhhh, how bout I deal with the matches," I said, "remember what happened last time you used fire?" 

         "Oh, heh heh yeah," she handed me the matches.

       "Wait, I want to know what happened last time," Wendy said with t b a smile. 

       "You don't wanna know," I said. Mabel nodded. Wendy gave a half nod slowly and dropped the subject.

       We layed out the sleeping bags inside the rent after sweeping out the dead bugs and other things left behind by Wendy's family. Mabel and Wendy made their beds and I explained my fort.

      "Is it like stable? At all? Because as of right now I'm in charge of you two," Wendy said scepticly.

      "Yes I checked," I responded, "you can come see it." Wendy shrugged. 

     "Yay, forts!" Mabel yelled. I rolled my eyes and started walking to the fort. 

     "Alright, here we are ," I anouced extending my arm towards the fort. 

     "Nice," Wendy said entering. 

     "Sweet," said mabel doing the same.

    I waited outside because there was not enough for all of me and them inside. Wendy came outside as well and inspected and the support beam and the infrastructure. 

   "Seams secure but if falls on you just yell as loud as you can."

   "Ok," laughed. We walked back to tent.

   Wendy began to dig a hole for a fire pit. "Hey can you two go find some rocks to put around the pit?" She asked.

    "No problem," Mabel said.

    We walked off through the forest side by side and that's when I noticed something.

    "Hey Mabel."

     "Yeah Dip?"

     "Ya might want to check our height," I said with a smile.

     "No!" She ran over to me on disbelief. She ripped off my hat and she stood up straight next to me. Sure enough I was right. I was two millimeters taller than her.

     "Noooooooo!" She fell to her knees dramatically, "whyyyyyy!" I stiffed a laugh. 

    "Mabel? Uh you ok?"

     "No, you're taller than me now," she said standing back up, "I'm not the alfa twin anymore."

     "Hey, at least you're still human," I said elbowing her arm a little. 

    "Don't say that," she said taking my hat and shoving it down over my eyes when she put it back on my head. 

    We walked for a few minutes on silence and then I noticed Mabel staring at me weirdly.
