The Soul Eater reference in the last chapter is when Mabel was talking about how she and Dipper didn't know 'how to deal with that'. It's an iconic thing Crona says a lot in the series!

I've been so caught up in my own things lately, you've all been probably wondering why it's taken me so long! And for that, I apologize! Enjoy!

Questions will be answered down below!

I get jostled from my sleep from Dipper's constant mumbling to no one in particular. "Eugh! Pleh!" A shrill cry of disgust causes me to sit up in bed way too fast for my liking. I see that Dipper has chewed through one of his pens, the ink spraying and staining everywhere. "Not again..." he mumbles to himself.

I lean on my railing, "Why are you so hel- heck- why are you so heck-bent on finding out who the author is?"

"Well, wouldn't you like to know?" Dipper smirks.

"Yeah. That's why I asked."

The boy sighs as I look on clueless, "Macie, that's the joke, because you should already know!" 

I make an 'O' shape with my lips in realization. Dipper only laughs and shakes his head, turning back to his work when our bedroom door flies open. "Hey, bro-bro, Mace. Look what I got!" Mabel squeals and jumps onto Dipper's bed, sitting down and waving a green bottle in the boy's face.

Sarcastically, Dipper waves his hands, "Yay, a filthy green bottle!"

"It's a bottle message from Mermando, remember? He was part fish, part shirtless guy," she gasps, "What if he wants to get back together?"

"Oh yeah, did not... Care. For. Mermando..." I smile and roll my eyes. Dipper splutters for a minute before settling back down.

"Har, har, very funny Macie." Dipper looks un-amused. He faces Mabel again, "I wouldn't get your hopes up, sis."

While I climb out of bed, Mabel excites, "Too late! Hopes are way way up!" I land on the floor with an oomph and place my hands on my hips as I watch her open the bottle. "'Dear Mabel...' So far so good! 'It is with a heavy heart...' So far so good! '...that I must inform you, I'm getting married'?!" The slip of paper falls out of her now limp hand and flutters onto the wood floor.

"And there it is," Dipper states, shuffling around with his papers.

I grab the note before Mabel could and read the rest, "'In order to prevent an undersea civil war... arranged wedding... Queen of the Manatees?!'" I show her the picture and she only sighs harder.

"She's so beautiful! This can't be happening!"

"Oh, Mabel. You'll get over him eventually." Pine Tree finally puts his attention back on our sister and consoles her. Then he looks to me for help. I shrug and he glares back, 'probably thinking that I know what to do right now, when I don't really...'

"You don't understand, guys." Mabel sullenly pulls out her scrapbook. "On my first day here, I made this page for summer romances. Look at my luck."  She points to separate pages dedicated to her 'boyfriends'. "Gnomes, child psycho, made out with his own puppets...I wish I could just forget about them forever," she finishes and closes the book sadly, putting it to the side and sighing, once again, depressingly.

I open my mouth, but Dipper decides to butt in, "Hey, if it's any consolation, my summer mission isn't a huge success either. I'm still trying to find the author of this journal, but with this laptop smashed, I've lost any lead in finding him."

"Yes, because you had a lead in the first place. That laptop was gonna self-destruct..." I state blandly, but smirking in my mind knowing that this will irk at the young boy.
