School work, snowball fights, and simple games

Bill:

~Bill shows up again the next morning, but just goes and watches tv in the living room while Dipper is still sleeping. He's avoiding having to talk about the night before. Mabel happens to come downstairs first and recognizes him, sitting with him and starting up a conversation. She still has no idea it's Bill though, he tells her his name is Will.~

Dipper:

~Dipper comes down to see his sister and currently residing demon engaged in an argument about who's the more worthy to wield Mjölnir out of the two of them. He is surprised to see Bill here, seeing as he had left so suddenly the night before. He can't help but wonder why the demon didn't come to his room first thing but he decides to give the boy some space for now. Dipper shakes his head, gets a cup of coffee, and heads straight back to his room. Bill excuses himself from the lighthearted discussion and follows Dipper up the stairs.~

Bill:

Come on, kid. Let's do something fuuuuuun.

~The two are in Dipper's room; Bill sitting at the desk, swiveling in his chair, as the other teen sits back on his bed with his computer and headphones on his lap.~

Dipper:

No can do, Cipher. I'm listening to a lecture.

~He sets up his computer and headphones, scattering books about himself.~

Being the great scholar that I am, I chose to start on an online college class even during the summer. But that was before I knew that instead of learning, my entire break would be spent watching out for such a careless demon, ugh.

Just pretend I'm actually at school right now, not like you would understand...

Bill:

School? I've never seen you do that before... How's that going for ya?

I would love to keep you entertained! Cause apparently that school thing is boring, heh.

Dipper:

I'm here to learn so leave me alone.

And it's an online lecture so I'm not going to school, it's on my computer.

Bill:

Oh, so since it's on your computer, I can still play with you?

It soooo boring with nothing to do in here. Your grunkle is taking some other meat sacks on a tour through the woods I see, and who knows what Shooting Star is up to by now. We could just go downstairs and I could watch tv again.

Dipper:

No, I'm gonna stay in my room and finish this lecture. I would rather you stay in here too than risk letting you out of my sight. Just sit down and be quiet.

~Dipper gets out the snow globe from his bedside drawer and tosses it to the demon. See, when Bill decided to take the toy in the first place, just in case he ever got bored, he kept it on him for a while until Dipper noticed him playing with it and made him give it back. From then on, Dipper said he can play with it only when they're in his room. But Bill still thinks the snow globe belongs to him.~

Bill:

Oh!

~He catches the toy and starts shaking it vigorously.~

No snow, then snow! It's like magic!

I'm gonna finally find out what's in it!

~He sets it on the floor and gets down cross-legged beside it, finger pointed and charged with a bolt to break the force field holding in the magic snow. As he's about to break it open so the mysterious contents could be discovered, the teen laying on the bed speaks up~
