Gravitytale

Chapter 4 - Friendship

It was a cold, snowy day in Gravity Falls, and when it's cold, the weird and wonderful creatures of the land also stay inside to keep warm too.

Unless you're Frisk.

Frisk was outside. In the snow. Thinking as usual about the many things they could do in the snow as well as things they could have done at home.
But of course. Frisk was happy to be alone and in a quiet area to think to themselves. No one has ever known what they think of, but it makes them happy so nobody really questions it.

Unknown to Frisk, they had just walked past the Mystery Shack.
And someone noticed.

"FRIIIIIIIIIISK!"

Well. Now Frisk definitely knew.

Frisk turned their head to see a pink blur running at full speed towards them.
Oh. Wait. No. It's just Mabel.
When Mabel got over to Frisk, she tried to stop after running at a high speed, but ended up falling over.
"Oof." muffled Mabel, face first into the snow. Frisk extended their hand, and when Mabel lifted her head up from the snow, she accepted.
"Sorry about that." she giggled
"I just saw you out here at 6 in the morning, alone. So I thought I might as well talk to you!"
Frisk smiled at the thought of Mabel staring out of her window, seeing them and then dashing outside without any reasoning.

Then, they took out their notepad and began writing.
That is very thoughtful of you Mabel. I appreciate it a lot!
She responded with a giggle, and then "Oh Frisk, you're too kind. Hey. Are you doing much today?"
Frisk shook their head and wrote down something.
Never am. I used to do a lot every day, but now I am used to occasionally doing something. It gets boring sometimes, but I prefer it. Why do you ask? Was there something you'd like to do?

Mabel grinned, "Well... you could always come over to the Mystery Shack and hang out with me and Dipper!"
Frisk smiled, nodded and wrote
That sounds like fun Mabel! I'll ask my mother first though. I should be allowed to. Should I ask now or later?
"Ask now! The more time together we have, the more time we can spend doing things!"
They nodded and again wrote
Sure thing. Ill be back soon. I'll meet you... Here?
Mabel agreed and the two went their separate ways.

Mabel dashed into the Shack and went upstairs into Dipper's and her room. She found Dipper awake, lying on his bed looking at a book that surprisingly wasn't journal number 3. Or any journal at all.

When Mabel entered the room. He snapped to attention.
"Mabel! Oh my god are you okay? Are you hurt? Where did you go?"
Mabel laughed, but appreciated her brother's concern for her.
"I'm A-Okay Dipdots! I am not hurt and I was pretty much outside the Shack with Frisk. I asked them to come over and they agreed to it! Isn't that exciting?! The savior of an entire race, being our friend!"
Dipper relaxed, knowing his sister wasn't in danger.
"Yeah. I have to admit Mabel. That is pretty exciting. I have so many questions! But next time, could you tell me when you decide to vanish? Or maybe bring me along?"
"Sure Dips! Whatcha reading there anyways?"
"Oh, this? It's a weird book Ford found, it's locked up though.
"Wow."
"I know! Ford didn't write it, so how did?!"
"You think the time traveler has something to do with that?"
"Most probably."
Suddenly. The door to the Shack knocked. Mabel looked out the window to see Frisk at the door. Waiting patiently.
"I'LL GET IT!" shouted Mabel.
Mabel bolted down the stairs and opened the door to see Frisk outside. Cold from all the snow and winter weather.

Frisk smiled at Mabel, as she let them in.
"Ehehe. Sorry. I was talking to Dipper. You were quicker than I thought." apologized Mabel.
It's okay Mabel. Besides. I am rather nimble anyways. This place looks bigger on the inside too. How strange. Wrote Frisk.
"Now that you think about it. It really is! Hey. Wanna go upstairs with Dipper?" asked Mabel.
Frisk agreed and the pair went upstairs.

When Mabel entered the room, she saw Dipper writing on a notepad. No doubt full of questions for Frisk to answer. Frisk entered shortly after Mabel did. She knows they're shy.
"Dip dots! I have brought back with me, a wild Frisk!"
Frisk smiled and waved at Dipper.
"Hey Frisk."
Replied Dipper.
"Okay! So. What should we do first? OH! Idea! Spin the Bottle!"
"Mabel. Frisk is new to us still. They might not be comfortable with this."
They looked over to see Frisk writing.
I don't mind. I had to flirt a lot during the underground to not get hurt anyway. This won't affect me considering I have flirted with and "dated" a skeleton. As well as flirted with... my own mother back in the undergrou- Frisk couldn't finish their sentence before they began to laugh. Not a lot. But a small giggle.
"Awww. That's the cutest thing I've heard! Your laugh is adorable Frisk!"
"Okay, yeah. I'll admit that's cute as well."
Both the twins agreed that Frisk's laugh is cute.
But yeah. My mother is from the underground and I have flirted with her before she was my mother.
"Amazing." agreed Mabel. "Soooooo... SPIN THE BOTTLE?!"
"Eh. It's not like we can do anything else. We could maybe search for this time anomaly, traveler person. Besides. I forgot where Stan stashed the board games. But what happens here, stays here. So, what do you say? Time traveler hunting, or spin the bottle?" asked Dipper.
I think I would choose spin the bottle. I have had enough of the cold for one day. I wouldn't know how to help without any knowledge of this traveler. Wrote Frisk.
"Fair enough. I'll have to show you sometime." replied Dipper. "Remember Mabel. What happens here, stays here. Nothing gets said about this."
"You got it Dips!"

And so. The trio played Spin the bottle. Mabel allowed Frisk and Dipper to not kiss, but to preform a dare instead. The day was going amazingly. Until the wrong dare was said.

"Dipper. I have to say, you sung Disco Girl fantastically."
Frisk nodded and gave the thumbs up. Then they span the bottle again. It landed on Frisk. Which means the person to the left gets to dare that person. Unless you're Mabel. She just kisses.
Mabel got to dare Frisk.
"Okay! Hm... We've done so many already. I guess I could... Ah! Frisk. I dare you to talk to us!"

Uh oh.
