One of Them?

Chapter 9: Recognition

Alcor POV:

Maybe they won't recognize me? No, they'll recognize me if I stick around to long.
"Hello." I say. Maybe I can escape before they notice.
"Ah. Hello. Alcor, right?" Ford said.
"Yep. You found the rift, then?" I ask.
"Yes." Stanley said.
"Well then I'll leave you to it." I say, walking away. Im nearly out when-
"Hey wait a minute!" Ford shouts at me. Uh oh. That can't be good.
"Yeah?" I ask.
"You look a lot like,.. ohhhhhhh" Ford says, realizing. Stanley has no clue what's going on.
"Surprise?" I say.
"That's all you have to say!?" He said.
"Yes?" I'm not sure how to react.
"What's going on?" Stanley asked.
"What's going on!? Stanley! Look!" Ford said.
"What is it- oh Shi- mebulock. Shmebulock." Stanley said. I knew I had been recognized.
"Well I'm gonna go,...." I say, taking a couple steps back.
"No, I think it's best if you stay."Ford said. They couldn't stop me from leaving. But maybe I didn't want to leave. Maybe I wanted to explain. I looked at him expectantly. He stared right back.
"So. Dipper." Ford says.
"Yes. That. Uhhhhhhhh, I died?" I said.
"And?" He said.
"Let me SHOW you." I say. I give them the same flashback I showed Bill.
"What. The fuck." Ford said.
"Weeeeeeeel. There may or may not have been a demon civil war and I fought in it and died but then been rencarnated" I say.
"A demon civil war?" He asks.
"Yep." I agree.
"Well then. We'll leave." Stanley said, grabbing Ford and running away. I groaned. What a disaster that had been.

Ford POV:
It clicked. All at once. The way he looked, acted, talked, he wasn't LIKE Dipper, he WAS Dipper. Oh, how did I not recognize this before? We had a conversation, apparently there had been a civil war? Well, Stanley pulled us out quickly. We watched to see if we could see more details. He just groaned at muttered to himself before inspecting the rift, patching it up and leaving.
