Hello! I hope you're all doing well! The Timeline has finally computed your mission objective — sorry it took so long! Sometimes he gets a little slow. Now, I know he may seem— different, but he's always been correct! Just... ah, be careful when talking to him? He's a learning machine, and all he really knows is about missions, so sometimes he says some strange things when he goes off topic. But don't worry! He tries his best. I'll connect you to him now.

TIMELINE.EXE IS PROGRAMMED TO RELEASE MISSION PARAMETERS. MISSION OBSERVATION IS COMPLETE AND RESULTS FOR MISSION: Nalawi ARE AS FOLLOWS:

Hello World ( ゚▽゚)/ Take the hassle and confusion out of the
Mission,
Try this One Weird Trick!

To help NALAWI, you will need to DEFEAT the GODDESS NALANNI so the energy can return to the world.* In doing so, the people of NALAWI will LOSE THEIR POWERS but the world will continue on. If this objective is not reached, NALAWI will BURN OUT PREMATURELY.

*NOTE FROM TIMELINE.EXE: Giant squid of the Sea, too
2 or 0 Not 1! Thank you

Probably for the best.

[She's not sure she ever wants to deal with more after this, tbh. But, hmm.]

What about giant sea creatures?

We saw a giant lake monster before. Does that count?

[ ... Okay, no, and even Dipper knows that. ]

Not that they're... comparable or anything. Every creature or monster or whatever tends to be different, and, well—most of the stuff we deal with is really different from the things I see back in Gravity Falls.

[What use are you, Dipper!! Answer: actually very useful, given the point he brings up.]

I suppose you're right. [There's an edge to her voice, defeat mingled with frustration. Why can't any of this be easy?] Still, there has to be some sort of experience we can draw on, when it comes to both the goddesses.

[ He feels you completely, Riza. Dipper isn't unlike a deflated balloon at this point. ]

Especially since we're going to be winging it from here, huh? How many of us have done this sort of thing before? [ Not many, he'd wager... ] But, uh—hey, from experience I can think back on, we could at least draw them somewhere they'd be more vulnerable at. Tip the odds in our favor and all.

[It feels like they've been winging all their missions since the very beginning, but that's not a very motivating thing to say.

On the bright side, Dipper seems to be holding his spirits relatively well. It's an encouraging sight, enough for Riza to smile and sidetrack the conversation ever so slightly.]


You really are quite like your great uncle.
