"Please don't try to eat the seed this time..." Dipper begged as he handed a can of pitt cola to the demon. "No promises," Bill pulled the tab backwards and started to chug down the soda. The brunette chuckled and shook his head in disapproval. "If you choke and die it's not my fault." the brunette shrugged and drank a bit of his own soda. "How long do you plan on staying?"

"Until someone kicks me out, I guess. We don't have a place to go." Bill ran his fingers through his blue hair and set his pitt cola aside. "Why can't you just make a place for you to stay?" Dipper, too, set his drink down and sat cross legged beside the demon. "And why is your hair blue instead of blonde, like Will's?"

"Dipper... I don't have much of my magic anymore. After weirdmagedon, I regained all of my power. But after I saved Will not too long ago, it's been slowly fading away. Will started out without magic, though he and I can still read minds. They've been chasing us on and on and on, so I finally decided that it would be best if they captured me instead of my brother because I would have an easier chance of getting out of their mansion than he would. So boom we swapped clothing and a few other traits from one another." he took a sip from his soda and set it back down. "Oh. Who were those people going after you and your brother?" he asked, yet again, another question. "Mabel and Dipper Gleeful, known as the reverse twins. Let's not talk about them though. Will is still... Sensitive about the topic."

"Right. Do you by any reason know why he called me-"
"Don't say it." Bill cut him off. Dipper nodded and looked away from the demon. "And yeah. I do know why. I've told you enough about Will. I doubt he would be okay with me telling the world his past life." he mumbled with a frown creeping onto his face. "Any questions you wanna ask me, to make us even?" the brunette rested his head in his hands.

"Yeah, actually." Bill sat up and turned 90°. Felling it was necessary, the shorter male did the same. "Ask away." Dipper smiled, not at all worried about what kind of question it was. "Why do you think so much?" he asked with a poker-face. The brunette blinked before making a 'pfft' sound, then realizing he was being serious. "Because doing things without thinking will end badly. Were you thinking when you were falling off the stairs rails?" he removed his hands from his face in order to sit up straighter, showing he was just as serious about the conversation.

"Yeah. Though I don't think about it as much as you do. It could've broken my leg or arm or any other body part, I could've busted my head open, but it was fun and it made my brother smile. If you're gonna live life, live it with no regrets, kid!" he grinned. "So what you're suggesting is that I don't think as much?" Dipper tilted his head in confusion. He clearly didn't understand the point in not thinking. There's a reason he has barely broken a bone in his body or-
"See! You're doing it right now," Bill crossed his arms. "Trust me. Things will work out in the end. They always do."

Mabel was instructed by Stanley to get all the boys for dinner, so the two had no other choice but to go inside and eat. Dipper was currently preparing himself to get yelled at by his grunkles for bringing, not one, but two demons into their home.

All three of them waited in the living room before going into the kitchen, finding Ford and Stan already eating at the table. When they heard Dipper enter the room, they stopped eating and looked up at the brunette and two strangers. "Hey, kid. Who are your two friends?" Stan spoke first. He took a deep breath and sighed. "This is William." he pointed to the blonde, who waved shyly. "And this is..." he gulped while gesturing to the other demon. "This is Bill."

"Sixxer! Fez! Long time no see." he said nervously. "Bill! What are you doing here? And what have you done to Dipper?!" Ford suddenly stood and pulled out what seemed to be a gun. "I expected that exact reaction." Bill admitted with his hands up in defense. What surprised Ford the most was that Will stood in between the demon and he in attempt to stop him, which worked. "Will! Stop being a human shield!" the blue haired demon exclaimed in a whisper. "I will when he puts the gun away. As in out of his reach." he said sternly, glaring at the man in front of him.

This surprised Dipper. Why? He didn't think Will would be brave enough to stand between his sibling for that long without flenching or starting to breathe heavily, but he thought wrong. He didn't mean that he seen him as weak, it just surprised him that such a cinnamon roll would do such a thing. Here the blond was, standing in front of his older brother when he had a gun aimed at him, and wasn't even blinking. That takes guts.

That's when he realized that these two demons care about each other as much as the mystery twins did. "Put the gun down." he told his grunkle, who had just loaded the gun and aimed it back at the demon siblings. "You have one last chance to tell me what you did to my nephew before this bullet ends up in your shoulder!" he threatened. "Put the gun down!"

Dipper hated telling his grunkle what to do, but if it meant that Bill didn't have to live without Will or Will without Bill, then he guessed it was worth doing. "I didn't do anything I swear!" Bill yelled before getting his brother out the way. "Fine!"

Ford shot at him without a second thought, and guess who jumped in the way?
