Journal Entry # 1 [Video/Action]

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Anyone who walks by or happens to be watching the network feed will see a frustrated kid siting on the grass and flipping through an old, battered journal.]

There isn't anything in this book about 'Pokémon'! Or how a sheep can produce electricity! That mom lady must have been a shape-shifter who didn't look anything like my mom... and that professor makes McGucket look sane...

[The gear moves towards the boy before it's tossed to the ground. Unfortunately, it lands face down, obscuring whatever threw it and the boy.]

Hey! Don't break that. We might need it later.

[Dream demon is a better term for what Bill is. A nasty dream demon who was bent on destroying the world apparently.

Wait...]

You're a twin, too?

[sneezelikeakitten]

That seems like cheating if I use my sheep against her.

[THIS MIGHT JUST BE WORSE THAN HE THOUGHT]

... are you saying this might be a dream? Or that we're dead and this is supposed to be some weird heaven?

[Destiny. Nope. Everything happens for a reason, and it's not destiny.

Also, you sound like you're from California.]

Right... so... deja boo? Is that like deja vuu?

If there's a killer robot on the loose, I don't think anyone will really care if you're "cheating" or not.

And no, I don't think it's anything like that.

I just think we might all be trapped in a video game.

[HOW IS THAT ANY BETTER?]

[veggie_vamp]

Is that what you normies call it? How cute!

[Hey, he beat a giant robot with a tiny man inside.]

Killer robots aren't that hard to fight if you know where to hit them.

[WHAT WHAT WHAT WHAT]

A video game?! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?!

[Video]

[monge]

[...wat.]

I- Wha- N-No, there's nothing wrong with them, zura! They're very fashionable shorts, r-really, zura! [HE DIDN'T MEAN TO UPSET HIM, but gosh he's never met someone so defensive before.] I know it's not cold now, but I said it will get cold later, zura. You...you can get really sick if you don't put anything on, zura!

[OR, LIKE, MAYBE EVEN DIE???]

Video

[sneezelikeakitten]

What's a 'normie'?

[Are you insulting him?]

[Video]

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Doppler, stop being so defensive.]

You can't get sick from the cold. You're just more susceptible to getting one. [This is a California boy. Nice weather all year round.]

Why do you keep saying 'zura'?

[Video]

[monge]

B-Because it's nice to meet you, zura...

[Don't expect an actual explanation, Dipper. Komasan has better things to worry about. LIKE THIS GUY'S HEALTH.]

But...you know there are other sicknesses other than a cold, r-right, zura?

Video

[veggie_vamp]

A normal! Um, what's that other word... oh, human being!

[Text]

[doesntdomuch]

Point. Still it never hurts to be on the safe side.

Maybe a weird glitch or possibly someone made an invention that lets you go inside of a video game and it went awry.

I wasn't present for it but I have heard something like this happening before.

[Video]

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Meting is a face-to-face thing.] How'd you get my number?

[Because this is not okay.]

Of course I do. There's things like the plague, or becoming a zombie.

Video

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Duh. He's very human.]

You're talking like you're not one.

[Video]

[monge]

[...Just what the heck kind of person did he contact here?]

You called everyone at the same time, zura...

[Granted, Komasan did the same thing when he first got here, too, but he doesn't recall being this...paranoid.]

Video

[veggie_vamp]

That's because I'm a vampire!

[Mom will now be put down as potential robot.]

If this is a video game, it's a pretty convincing one. We're not pixelated at all.

[fatalissimo]

Well, yeah, but a lot of us have been here for years, you'd think she would've learned by now.

[...Although given the general state of the NPCs, maybe not.]

[Video]

[sneezelikeakitten]

I did not! The sheep must have done it...

[That poor Mareep is hanging its head. I'm sorry I upset you, trainer.

Welcome to the world of Dipper Pines.]

Video

[sneezelikeakitten]

[Wait...

WHAT?!

He narrows his eyes in suspicion.]

You don't look like a vampire...

[sneezelikeakitten]

She might have a long-term memory problem.

[Mystery solved.]

Video

[veggie_vamp]

[She sighs at that.]

Yeah, this world took away my vampire powers... I guess you could technically say I'm sort of human now, but my heart will always be that of a vampire!

Video

[sneezelikeakitten]

So this world made you reverse to being a human?

[What a powerful world. He'll make a note that vampirism is curable.]

[fatalissimo]

Or maybe she's not a damn shapeshifter, because nobody's powers work around here.

[veggie_vamp]

I know, but despite that, it's a really cool place sometimes!
