Monster Falls. It's okay to be a freak.

Look through a stranger's lenses

Dipper and Willow awake at the same time. They rush gently upstairs gently. They spot the journals with the strange one with a six finger hand that held a letter tied to it. Dipper unties the rope tying the letter down as Willow reads gently.

Dear Dipper,

This journal holds the mysteries and knowledge on the creatures living in forest of Gravity Falls. This journal was written by my brother who was Sphinx just like you. This is a piece of his work that he did here before I settled here. By the time he finished this journal, he went missing. Please listen carefully, in this journal I believe my brother misunderstood a person. Bill Cipher. Read with caution, this book holds many knowledge on your species but I'm sad to say the written slowly changed from the brother I once knew and still love dearly.

Forever,
Your Grunkle Stan

There was silence as wet tears fell from Willow's checks. Dipper stares at her gently; worry burning in his eyes. She grabs her guitar and shows the engraving in it. Dipper was silent and shocked.

Bill watches them with soft tears leaking down. She kept it. She actually remembers a piece of him.  He was glad.

Ford watches in silent. No. No. Bill out all creatures gave a little girl a guitar. What sick manipulation is this?!

"He was the first nicest person I ever met. He was a peculiar tall man in a yellow and black suit with a cane. He had a top hat too that always held jokes inside. One time he joked about a dead chicken in his hat. It was always funny even if the chicken was dead. He always protected me from bullies and the cruel people that made me hurt go away. He was there until a sphinx, not like you in anyway, in a lab coat, with cracked glasses and he had six fingers took him. He gave me this guitar on my birthday. It helps me hold the first person who shown me the world wasn't all dark and cruel close.", Willow says softly through her tears. Dipper was silently shocked. "We're going to find him.", Dipper says with determination. He doesn't care they were going to find this nice man.

Willow pulls out inks, and invisible ink, with a freshly blank journal that she had saved for a while.

Dipper places his paw on the front for Willow to trace on before using gold ink to fill the tracing in.

They wait it to dry before they write the simple words in the golden paw.

Three Truths

They open Journal Three and start tearing apart its lies. Even the invisible ink lies. They take turns writing. They smiled softly. As they broke apart the lies and the truth of Journal Three.

Ford is silently fuming. Bill they can't remember you and they are going to find you!! I can't let them set you free!!

Dipper and Willow silently read shivering feeling a cold dread as they read. They managed to convince Stan to let them walk through the forest. They have chatted with many of creatures in this journal. Half of everything written in here was a lie. Their journal that they were writing was much different. It wrote the truths of these creatures and how to not infuriate them to make them want to kill you. Pheo-Pheo behind them protecting them as they walked through this forest.
It made them shiver the more they read through the journal. It felt someone was forcing them to wear a lense of a stranger that made them sick.

Eventally Willow starts coughing up blood in disgust. Dipper slams the journal shut. They had enough for today. They were at a river. Willow smiles softly. She decides in that moment to show Dipper. He was silent as she weakly shifts into a glowing white bird that Dipper knows too well.

Sky Phoenix

She shifts back gently laughing at Dipper's smile of shock. "Why did you think I was peculiar?", she says perfectly healed. Dipper smiles. "We all have our own lenses.", he says softly.
