"The animatronics are honestly terrifying," Dipper had to admit. Mabel shook her head. "Bro, you're just paranoid! I mean, look at them! They're adorable! Especially the... bird-person-thing! And the Neko! Ooh, there's even an Inu!," she squealed as she looked around for more animatronics. Dipper sighed. 'She'll never understand.'

"Hey, kids! I heard there's a special person in the roo-oo-oom today! Happy birthday, Ju-Julian!" All the kids cheered when the big yellow animatronic announced the kid's name. The purple animatronic stepped forward and took the microphone. "Well, today's your l-l-lucky day Julian! We ha-have a special song we would like to play-play!" Dipper rolled his eyes at the animatronics' speech. Just as he thought about suggesting to Stan that he get new ones, the blue animatronic stepped forward. "W-would all adults 18 a-and older come backstage? Yes, even th-the employees. We have a special a-anounce-announcement for you." Dipper stared at the animatronic before doing as instructed.

The bird-like appearance was even more impressive up close. Every detail was spot-on. Dipper was honestly quite impressed. The blue feathers shone as it instructed the adults to pair up. Dipper was the only one left, so the animatronic came over to him. Bowing, it introduced itself. "I-I'm Will Cipher. Looks like y-you need somebody to p-pair up with. I hope I'll do." Will stood up straight again, then turned its head to address the other adults. "This is an e-exercise to build up your trust and help you earn s-some new friends. Dipper and I shall d-demonstrate for you." 'How did it...?' Will turned and looked straight at Dipper, then smiled and started to demonstrate.

Dipper was glad that it was finally over. Will had him do so many things that tested his mind. Most of the time he was scared that the animatronic would randomly crush him, but he slowly learned to trust Will and became more comfortable with what he was doing. Still, it was a living hell. Will kept gripping him too hard, sometimes even making him bleed. He turned to leave, but Will gripped his shoulder before he could. He turned his head to see Will staring at him with a serious expression. Its eyes flickered before it said, "Be careful tonight," then let go of Dipper. Dipper was stunned until Will pushed him towards the door. It nuzzled his cheek before he exited the backstage and went to go search for Mabel.

Heart beating in his chest, Dipper closed the door for the 10th time. "Go away, Tad!" Shuffling could be heard before a muffled, "I'm afraid I can't do that, Dipper!" Dipper sighed and tried again. "Please?" "Nope." "Why not?" "The same reason you're not letting me in!" Dipper paused. "And that reason is?" Tad chuckled. "Well, we don't really know each other! I just wanna get to know you and be friends!" Dipper huffed. He surveyed the cameras again, only to see Will right by the door. He quickly shut it, but not in time. Will slid under the door. Dipper backed up and accidentally hit the other door's button, resulting in it opening. Tad grabbed him and squeezed him hard. Will glared at it and ordered it to let him go. Tad laughed and pushed Dipper towards Will. It caught him and gave Tad one last glare before hugging Dipper. "I-I told you to be careful." Dipper shuttered. "U-umm..." Tad rolled his eyes and left. Will nuzzled Dipper's cheek. "Maybe you'll listen if I do this!" Will lifted Dipper up, then set him onto the desk. It leaned close and whispered into Dipper's ear, "You're mine now~".

If you're confused, annoyed, or something else, I've been referring to Will and Tad as 'it' because they're animatronics, meaning they have no gender.
