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

[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!]

[offscreen] What? Mabel are you serious? [He's more referring to her doing the worm than he is being able to get information.]

[He sighs and takes the Gear from her. For a second he's viewable, and he's just kind of. shocked.]

Is...your giant blue turtle breakdancing?

Yes. Yes she is.

[And right as she does another spin, Zen spews water out of her canons and strikes a radical pose!

Riku just snickers.]

Anyway, if you want a serious guide, I've got one written up. I'll even slap it on as an attachment.

[Hopefully Dipper won't mind a wall of text. Riku is kinda ridiculous in his knowledge.]

ATTACHED:

Training Guide.txt

[Aaand back to video.]

And if she really wants to show off her dance moves, I say go for it.

[Shrug.]

[Riku you have made Dipper the happiest boy in the world. He's grinning and everything.]

Wow! Thanks, man! [He looks over at Mabel.] Mabel! You have to send me this file later, okay? [Sooooo excited.]

Yeah! Okay, yeah, [turns the camera on Mabel] you're up, Mabel!

[Mabel throws a salute Dipper's way.]

Aye, aye, Captain Dippingsauce!

[Okay, you ready to see her SWEET MOVES, Riku? You best be prepared. The salute turns into a fist pull... thing. What the hell do you call that action, I don't even know.]

Yes!

[She grins widely at the camera, brushing up the sleeves of her sweater determinedly.]

Let's do this thing!

[And she throws herself to the ground and... does the worm. I'm not even sure how to describe it. She's not really doing it properly, though, she's just kinda flailing her body in a squiggly motion.]

[...Wow, that's... special. Riku and Zen both stare in awe at this mysteriously bizarre sight.

And stare...

And then Zen proceeds to bump Riku to the side and pull off some radical spins in her shell! Dance party! Totally.]

...Well, I think she appreciates it.

[Heh.]
