Hey guys! Dipper here. Now that we're finally catching a break for once, my sister and I have decided we're taking this chance to officially celebrate our thirteenth birthday! Since if we were back home, it'd have already passed.

[ And from parts unseen (behind Dipper’s back, basically) out pops a girl with her cheeks puffed out and fist to her mouth, mimicking a blaring trumpet. If you’ve met them separately perhaps you never made the connection, but when put next to each other it’s inescapably obvious. Damn near identical: you’ve got two Pines for the price of one. ]

Brrph-drr-drr-drrrrph! Twins extraordinaire! And now, reckless teenagers on the loose!! Also hi I’m Mabel, I just got here. If Dipper gave you any trouble please message me privately, and I’ll be sure to deliver the appropriate amount of punishment noogies.

—What? Not before I noogie you first. [ Dipper shoves her gently back over his shoulder, good-natured and not without a brief flicker of a devious grin. ] More importantly, though—sooo we asked for a cake from the kitchens and it's pretty big! Y'know, the kind that's impossible for two people to eat alone. Anyone want some? It's all we can offer instead of a real birthday party, but hey, we're not against improvising!

The only thing we’re against is party poopers! [ She slams a surly fist down to the floor. ] YOU’RE BANNED! But everyone else! Come on down and bring your appetites! And your musical instruments if you have any! What’s a party without music? [ With a spoon, she deftly carves out a chunk of the cake (it’s chocolate on the inside, and it looks as if the jam between the layers might be strawberry) and shoves it into her mouth. She speaks thickly through the mess, beaming. ] Plus I gotta dance all this cake off! Mm-mm-mm!

Isn't that kind of like asking someone to bring a real trumpet? [ He eyes the camera, grimacing slightly. ] You're also banned if you plan to play a trumpet down here. Iiii think that's it before our banned list grows any longer!

Eh. Works for me. [ She swallows at last and waggles some jazz hands at the camera. ] Come cake with us!!


( BOTH PINES WILL BE TAGGING feel free to hassle them over the network or in person down in the dining hall, we're not doing a separate log for this silly nonsense. )

[She was going to hesitate to comment, seeing as what happened last time she saw the boy in this twin set, but.

But-]


You have cake for your birthday?That is how it is celebrated in the outside world?You're thirteen?

[It accidentally tumbles out in one big jealous blur.]
ackingcraycray: (046)

this is the saddest response i've seen to a birthday in my life

[personal profile] ackingcraycray 2016-03-02 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Mabel laughs.]

Of course there's cake! What else would there be!

I mean usually there's other stuff too like pinatas and punch, and presents. Friends and family....but we don't have that right now so, so cake it is!

[She takes a scoop off, one with a really good chunk of icing, and moves it inexorably towards the camera. Magic bracelet. Thinger.]

You want a piece? Eh? Eeeeeh?
grunehexe: (temper)

she's so jealous hers happened during a firestorm ok thats all this is JEALOUSY

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
What are pinatas? And punch? I know one is supposed to be gifted things on the day of birth, but-

[She's getting puffier and puffier in the face as this goes on. How cruel fate had been, that the snow moon had risen during an accursed rain of fire, and- !]

Do not taunt me with your cake so!

[How dare they be a whole year older than her, to make this worse!!]
ackingcraycray: (009)

amazing, is there a firestorm every year or was that the defining moment of where it all went wrong

[personal profile] ackingcraycray 2016-03-02 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Pinata's are boxy paper donkies! You beat them up with sticks and candy falls out! And punch is the funner version of juice.

[Wow, this girl is intense.

BETTER COMBAT IT WITH EXTRA SUNSHINE!]


I'm not taunting, I'm inviting!! [Mabel throws her arm out to show the empty expanse of room around her and Dipper.] Come eat with us, total stranger! You know you wanna~
grunehexe: (crutches)

just the one spent in oska so bummer

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
What is a donkey? [She knows it, just... as "ass"] Why is there candy within the donkey? Why is punch fun? You are not making any sense at all-

[WHY IS THIS HAPPENING, WHY CAN'T SHE JUST BE NICE AND ACCEPT THE INVITATION]

I shall not be shown up in this manner!
ackingcraycray: (059)

if it makes her feel better that's probably when their real birthday happened too, burning buddies!!

[personal profile] ackingcraycray 2016-03-03 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa whoa whoa! Slow down. Deep breaths. Nobody's showing up anyone.
grunehexe: (admission)

it probably does sadly

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-03 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
I beg to differ! What is all this then?

[She gestures to... all of. This. Like that makes sense at all.]

A big empty room with a whole lot of cake.
grunehexe: (grumpy)

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
I can have cake prepared for me by my manservant whenever I please!

[... That doesn't answer the question but.]
grunehexe: (temper)

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
Is there something special about it?

[It sure sounds special if it's a type of cake one can only eat once a year...]
grunehexe: (support)

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 04:44 am (UTC)(link)
... you would share it with me, given freely? What is wrong with it?

[Why would you give away cake that was for you to eat otherwise???]
grunehexe: (stare)

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-02 05:24 am (UTC)(link)
Is it not time for friends and family to give gifts unto you, not the other way around?
grunehexe: (dirty thoughts)

[personal profile] grunehexe 2016-03-03 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
... I see.

[No she. Didn't. But. She'd like to appear like she knows what is going on, at least.]
