first sweater (✿◕‿◕) video + action for new bark town

[idkmybffwaddles]

[The feed opens with very shaky camera work, because Mabel is currently circling Dipper and zooming in and out erratically. Dipper, of course, is being all serious and stuff and has his nose buried in his Trainer Handbook. He's sitting on a bench somewhere in New Bark Town and Mabel is sufficiently bored.]

Mabel, cut it out—

What? You said we need to document everything, so I'm documenting!

[She switches to a fake Australian accent, zooming in close to Dipper's face.]

Croikey! Lookee what we got 'ere! A wild Dipper in 'is natural habitat. I wonder what'll happen if we poke it?

[She drops the accent and pokes Dipper repeatedly.]

Poke fight!

[Dipper frowns indignantly, pushing Mabel's Gear away with his hand.]

Seriously, Mabel, I'm trying to read.

[She pouts and climbs up on the bench and films from above.]

Come on, Dipper. You've read that thing like five times now.

I just want to make sure we know what we're doing before we wander off into the wilderness, okay?

[At this point, Mabel starts singing. Belting, really. And dancing. On the bench. The camera's pretty much all over the place with her crazy jiving.]

WE'LL MAKE IT THROUGH THE WILDERNESS, I KNOW WE'LL MAKE IT THROUGH OOH OOH! I DON'T KNOW THE REST OF THE WORDS DO DO DO DO DO DO!

Random dance party, yeah!

[Except it's really just Mabel dancing to the New Bark Town music. She's done documenting for now because Dipper's being Lamey McLameShorts. Be prepared for threadjacking!]

[Oh look, children having fun in the starter area. Nevermind he just lost his wife, because this is something that calls for him.]

Those're some re~al nice lyrics you got there, kiddo. Your friend's right though, there are some bi~g Pokémon out there.

[Mabel swipes her hand at the screen with her sleeve and looks somewhat bashful.]

Aww, they're not that great. They're not even mine. I heard them in Shrek!

But how big are we talking? Are there, like, giant unicorn dinosaurs out there?!

[She would totally catch one of those.]

That was still some mig~hty singing. [He liked it!]

Not quite... [He looks off-screen, putting out a hand as if serenading whatever was there.]

Snappin' up a Snapdragon!

[And then it comes on. A Dragonite just a little taller than he is- and Father's pretty damn tall.]

[idkmybffwaddles]

Aw, thanks. I almost won this karaoke competition, but then Pacifica beat me by, like, one clap.

[SUDDENLY DRAGONITE.]

Holy moley! Is that a dragon? Does it breathe fire?

[She punches Dipper in the arm, pointing enthusiastically at the screen.]

Dipper, look!

[The Post In Which Dipper Gets Punched A Lot. Dipper's gotten used to this by now, so he just leans over, his Gear still in hand, and his eyes widen.]

That's...that's a dragon, alright.

[Other Father's smile widens at the enthusiasm of the kids, giving a semi-circle wave to the conversation's newcomer.]

Not just yet, but I'm sure I could teach him if you'd want?

[He just needs to get ahold of the Flamethrower TM, then it's firebreathing dragons ahoy!]
