Mabel and Dipper are exploring the forest, having fun as Dipper writes in his journal he was inspired to start by Ford. Mabel skips along happily catching glimpses of Gnomes running about with other creatures and side eyeing them but carrying along. They go to the Mystery shack and meet up with Stan, Ford, Soos, Wendy, and Melody!

Stan: “hey, goobers! It’s been a while, eh?” he tussles Dipper’s hair and hugs Mabel

Ford: “Dipper! I see you’ve been working on your journal!” he smiles, proud of his great nephew

Dipper: “Yeah! It’s been a fun project while I’m in boring ol’ Piedmont California! I’m so glad to be back in Gravity Falls though”

Mabel: “We both are, Dipstick!”

Wendy: “Mabel! Rockin those overalls, love it. Dipper, still wearin’ my hat!”

Soos: “Yo, dawg! It’s so good to see you two again! Boosh!” he gives both Dipper and Mabel a fist bump

Melody: “Yeah, great to talk in person again, it’s been so long!”

after some catch up, Soos and Melody open up the Mystery Shack, tourists come in and chatter… this is where you come in~
