Mabel was pretty easy to spot. She was standing in front of a floor-length mirror, fiddling with the band in her hair. "Took you long enough," she remarked in her cold voice. "Did you get distracted by something?"
"Uh... no," you responded. "I just don't know how to teleport."
She scoffed and stopped her preening. The smile that had been on her face throughout the show had faded almost completely. "You should probably learn how to if you're going to keep up," she said. "Did you enjoy the show?"
"It was far better than what I had expected it to be," you said. It was the absolute truth. "I'm not normally interested in things like this but it was amazing and you look absolutely stunning in that outfit."
Mabel smiled properly at your flattery. "I know. It's one of my favorite things to wear. I only wish that I could wear it all the time. It really accentuates my best features, wouldn't you say?"
"Completely," you agreed. This was a game you had played since you were kids. You appealed to Mabel's vanity and she pretended to like you for a few hours. It kept your parents off your case for the most part and made sure Mabel liked you at least a bit. Never worked on Dipper though. Speaking of which... "Where is Dipper anyway?"
Mabel pulled a face at the mention of her twin. "He's dealing with the secret to our show," she said but it sounded more rehearsed than what she had been saying up on stage.
"A secret?" you asked. You cursed how easily your tone betrayed the curiosity lying underneath. "What kind of secret?"
"A magical one," Mabel responded. She was taunting you. "Everybody has at least one right? I can imagine you have quite a few that you wouldn't tell me about. Dipper and I agreed that this would remain family only."
"But I am family," you pointed out. "I'm your cousin so technically I should be allowed to know."
Mabel laughed. It was cold and sent shivers down your spine. "Of course," she said. "You are family after all and it would irritate Dipper to no extent. Besides, even if you did tell anybody, I doubt they would believe you."
"Of course not," you agreed. "You're the one that people believe. You got all the talent and the showmanship that makes them want to listen to you."
"I got the looks too," she added on. She sighed. "I suppose it really wouldn't hurt as long as I make you swear not to tell a soul." Her tone was mocking and patronizing but you were relatively sure it was aimed at Dipper as opposed to you. They never did get along that well.
She led you further into the tent while stopping occasionally to run her fingers through her hair or adjust her clothes when you went past a reflective surface. She brought you to a door and gestured for you to be quiet while she knocked on it. "Dipper," she called in a sing-song voice. "You have to come and say hello to (y/n)!"
The door opened and you were greeted by the thoroughly unimpressed face of your cousin. "Mabel, I'm busy!" Dipper snapped. "I don't have time for this now!"
"Hey Dipper," you greeted. He glanced over at you for a second before turning his attention back to Mabel. He never had liked you.
Mabel flicked her knife at him, missing his face by mere inches. Dipper didn't flinch. "I told (y/n) that I'm going to introduce her to Will," Mabel cooed. "And you're kind of hogging the door. Could you disappear for a bit?"
His eyes narrowed. "There's not a chance. I told you that I wanted to limit the amount of people he interacts with."
The female twin rolled her eyes and held her knife up to Dipper's cheek. "Oh come on. She's one person and she is family after all." Mabel chuckled. "Besides, what's the worst that could happen? She's going to meet him sometime."
"Because you've decided on it," Dipper summarized. He glared at both of you before taking a step back into the room and leaving the door ajar. Mabel always seemed to win these things if you were going by her past track record.
"After you," Mabel teased. She gave a small bow and held her hand out to the door.
You hadn't really been expecting to see another person standing in the room with Dipper. He was standing at quite a distance from your cousin but they appeared to be the same height. His hair and the suit he was wearing was blue. An eyepatch sat over his left eye and he wore a top hat. He only met your eyes for a second before turning his attention to the floor but it was enough for you to notice the unnatural color.
Mabel broke your concentration before you could properly register it. She seemed very smug about your blank stare. "Tell me (y/n), have you ever met a dream demon before?"
A what exactly?
