Life In Gravity Falls

Meeting People

You yelp in surprise as you wake up, staring into the faces of six teenage boys each with identical blonde hair and blue eyes. You then realize that you're staring at one of Mabel's boy band posters that hangs from the ceiling.
Alone in the room, you start going through your luggage trying to find something to wear. You then remember that you slept in your clothes, and decide that it couldn't hurt to wear them for one more day.
You walk down stairs to see Mabel and Dipper sitting at the kitchen table, eating pancakes.
"Good morning," you say and sit down.
"Hey, y/n." Dipper responds.
"Did you sleep well?" Mabel asks.
"Yeah, it was great, thanks." you smile.
You start eating, and soon Stan walks into the room.
"Today's a Shop day, and I expect all of you to work your shifts."
"What about me?" you ask. "What should I do?"
Stan looks at you. "Oh yeah, uh, you can just follow these two knuckle-heads around and help them with their jobs."
"Okay, cool." you say.
"Wendy and Soos should be here any minute." Stan says as he sits down. You look up at the mention of unfamiliar names. "Who?"
"Two employes I hired, to help around the shop. Mabel and Dipper can introduce you once they arrive." Stan gets up and walks out of the kitchen.
You've finished your breakfast, so you get up and follow him, along with Mabel and Dipper. You enter the shop, which has many strange  and obviously fake attractions such as The Six-Pack-Alope and The Corn-I-Corn, which is being gnawed on by a small pig at the moment.
"Uh, Stan? Are you aware that there's a pig in your shop?" you ask, pointing to where the pig has now ripped off a piece of corn and run off with it.
"Huh? Oh, that's just Mabel's pet, Waddles. He likes to roam around." Stan looks at his watch.
"We make DJ shows and funny videos!" Mabel says proudly.
"Here they are. Its about time." Stan mutters as two cars pull up to the shack.
Out of one steps a rather large man with a Mystery Shack shirt and a brown hat, while a pretty red headed girl steps out of the other, wearing a green flannel shirt and lumberjack hat.
They both enter the shack.
"Wendy, Soos, this is our newest employe, y/n. Shes staying at the shack with us for the summer."
"Cool!" Soos waves to you. "Nice to meet you. 'Sup Dipper, 'sup Mabel," Soos waves.
"Thats cool. I think you're really gonna like it here." Wendy smiles and fist bumps Dipper and Mabel.
"Alright - here they come. Get to your positions!" Stan calls out. A ton of buses come speeding into the parking lot, obviously ignoring the speed limit. Mabel pulls you over to the cash register.
"You can work here with me for now, and help Dipper later." she tells you.
"Alright, sounds like fun," you nod as the first customers come rushing in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Later, after helping Mabel work the register and hand out sparkly stickers, you walk around and help troubled customers with Dipper. You notice Tyler in the corner who can't seem to decide between two shirts.
As you approach him, you hear him muttering, "Puma shirt? Panther shirt? Hmm."
"Need some help?" you ask casually.
"Yeah. I can't figure out which shirt I want, the puma one or the panther one." He frowns.
"I hate to break it to you, but those are both the exact same picture of the same animal. So instead of choosing between puma and panther, try choosing between green and blue." you inform him.
"Oh. Well that's easy!" Tyler exclaims, " I'll get the green one. Thanks!"
"Happy to help," you say as Tyler puts the blue shirt back on the rack and walks over to Mabel at the cash register.
"Not bad, kid." You whirl around to see that Stan has somehow snuck up on you. "I'm honestly impressed. Tyler's been trying to make that decision for over a week now, and no one was able to sway him. How on earth did you do it on your first day?"
"I just told him tha-" you're cut off by Wendy sprinting down the stairs, holding a can of silly string in each hand and spraying you both with it. She's followed by Dipper, who also has a can and is trying to catch up and spray her.
You laugh and wipe the string off of yourself, but Stan just stands there looking furious, and you can see why. Along with spraying each other, the two kids are also spraying some of the merchandise and customers.
"Wendy! Dipper! Get over here, now!"
The two kids freeze, looking up and realizing just how angry Stan is. You decide that it's a good time to go help Mabel again, so you slowly back away until you get to the counter.
"Uh oh," Mabel says, chuckling, "They're in so much trouble."
"Do you think he's gonna punish them?" you ask.
"Nah." Mabel shakes her head. "He seems tough, but he's just a big softie. I'd say the worst punishment they could get would be having to clean up their mess and apologizing to the customers."
"Oh. Okay." you say, as you get back to work.
