In the Cipher house (Published on July 5)

Chores

Today Is Dipper's once a week chore day where She gets one day off and the children take over her house responsibilities each having a specific chore to do every time.

"So the chore list is divided evenly and no chore is worst or better that the rest?" Bill questioned doing a crossword with his wife who nods.

"Yeah cleaning and maintaining a house this big and having this many children really takes a toll on a girl." Dipper said with Bailey on her lap who tries to eat her pen "No Bailey I learned a long time ago to not chew on pens!" 

"Ha! You still do it!" Bill teased causing Dipper to growl at him , so he pits his hands up in defense "Woah! Never said it wasn't cute!" He looks down at his crossword "By the way I'm a head of you pinetree!"

"Not for long!" Dipper challenged and started to scribble down some answers when she hears a commotion upstairs, she and Bill sigh and go upstairs to investigate.

"1,2,3,4 we won't do your stupid chore no more!"Chanted the children holding up signs specifically to what chore they do.

"Kids you've done weekly chores for years what brought this on?" Dipper asked confused and of course they respond with chants.

"5,6,7,8 give us cash that'd be great!" The kids chanted getting in Dipper's face who backs up.

"Okay then how much?" Bill asked holding up his wallet ,but his wife slaps his hand "What they wanted cash I'm giving them cash!" He defended. Dipper growls in annoyance and gives Bailey to Bill.

"Okay do any of you think I get payed to do what any of you do?" Dipper asked.

"9,10,11,12 get father dear involved!" They chanted pointing at Bill with their signs.

"We heard protestors wanting more money and Father does make a fortune which he gives to you! Like a paycheck!" Blaine said with his siblings nodding at his statement.

"Bill don't give them any money!" Dipper yelled at Bill who was taking out his wallet again "Real talk! I need some time away from doing all the work everyday! If no one does it then balance will fall and chaos will follow!" She explained but the kids were about to chant again till...

"No more chanting!" Bill yelled shutting everyone up and now a little scared "Okay I'm done! If you want to protest then fine by me! Let's see how everything turns out! Cause were out! Come on Mason!" Bill dragged Dipper's arm away ,but stops to take Bailey into Brooke's arms "Were going out! Watch Bailey!" He proceeded to drag Dipper outside where they hop into a car and drive away.

"Poo-poo!" Bailey whined waving her arms and legs around wanting her mom.

"Not the reaction I expected." Blaine said voicing his thoughts.

AFTER DIPPER AND BILL LEFT
"I knew you'd blow it." Brooke said to Blaine.

"Were going off the grid."Brian said into his headset "For something silly Janice just do it while I'm still young." The lights went off when he said that.

"Fish , our cat Hera, dog James, bird Will and hamster Theo's poop where will i put them now!" Boston said holding bags of poop.Bailey poops at this moment "And Bailey's too!"

"Is mom and d- I mean father going to be away forever!" Bell asked scared clutching her face.

"I nose just what to do!" Laughed Brett putting on his funny nose and glasses.

"What we going to laugh them back home so they can give us money for chores?" Brooke asked Brett who sulked but then grabbed his fake cigar.

"Aw don't be a Groucho!" Laughed Brett then went serious "What I meant to say was we need to do something for them! To make up for our behaviour!" His siblings agreed.

"That's actually not a bad idea little bro!" Blake said putting an arm around him and swirled his guitar alive " I say we make a song for them!" He strummed his guitar.

"No! I think we should put on a beauty pageant!" Bonnie said then realized "Sorry bad idea we can't do that in a day ,and you boys have leg hair!"

"Hey I'm quite proud of that!" Braden said showing off his legs "Besides we should do something like showing them we defend ourselves in a remake of old action films!" He performed some large kicks and punches.

"We could cut our losses and eradicate them." Brain said making his siblings stare at him in shock "Uh sorry I'm giving Janice financial and economic advice."Brian went back on his headset to continue his conversation.

"Anyway we could just give them a romantic dinner for two!" Brooke said getting starry eyed "Light music , dinner, candles, moonlit night oh! I can just die from happiness!" Her siblings don't look intrigued.

"No way! We have to do something to fix the relationship between us and mom and father! Not theirs but ours as children and parents!" Blaine said then took notice of the house getting dirty "But first we really need to clean up better than mom ever did then make them a gift they'll love!" Everyone cheered and got to work.

WITH BILL AND DIPPER
Bill and Dipper are on Gravity Falls docks with their feet in the water "Geeze Bill if you drove a little faster we would've of either crashed or gotten a ticket." Dipper said putting her fingers through her hair.

"Pinetree you should learn to live a little! I mean even if I only have an hour of free time I use it! Like going out partying or play stupid games! Something to keep you pumped up and alive for another day!" Bill said arms extended for emphasis then put an arm around Dipper "Or just to be with a lover in moments like this!" He kissed her cheek.

"That's not why were here! Were here to think of a solution to the kids protesting!" Dipper said leaning in Bill's chest for comfort.

"I could just give them money?" Bill said but Dipper looked at him harshly "Well what do you suggest?"

"I don't know!" Dipper said hand under her chin "We could make them spend the weekened at Grunkle Stan's!"

"That's overdoing it. We could just let them not do the chores." Dipper looks at him questionly "Hear me out! You don't don't the chores and neither do the kids! And in time they'll learn that what you everyday is something important."

"Live a little huh!" Dipper said smirking pushing Bill in the water laughing at him "You got a good idea! Let's do it!"

"Okay but will you help me!" Bill said ,so Dipper offers a hand only to be pulled in as well "Got you!" Bill laughed.

"Oh its on!" Dipper said splashing Bill who does the same making them both laugh.

"Just like old times huh!?" Bill said chest on Dippers who looks him smirking.

"Yeah except this time your not getting me pregnant!" Dipper said blowing a raspberry at Bill pushing him Deeper in the water.

BACK HOME
"SURPRISE!" The kids yelled when the parents came home soaking wet."Oh!"

"Hey parents wets up!" Brett laughed but his siblings groaned at the pun.

"Where were you guys anyway? Doing something groddie!?" Boston asked making the older kids crinch at his words.

"We just needed some time to think at the lake." Bill said taking in the scenery with Dipper. The house is cleaner than ever and smells so good. The kitchen is candle it and macaroni is set on the table along with some petals from outside.

"Oh it's beautiful." Dipper said looking at the candles "And the house looks great! You all did this in less than a hour?" 

"It was easy when we did chores together instead of 40/40!" Bell said smiling brightly and hands Bailey to Dipper.

"Yeah anything for you mom! It was worth it!"Blaine said arms folded.

"My sole never felt happier." Babs said stoically placing her hands on her heart.

"That's really saying something! Ha!" Braden said pointing at babs.

"Well we better not waste the macaroni Dipper! Let's eat shall we!" Bill said handing Bailey to Brooke as he and Dipper go to eat "By the way still no money!" Bill yelled.

"Awww!" The kids whined slouching and walking away from their parents romantic evening so they can be in peace.
