VIDEO; a public service announcement

[Aw, look, it’s a cute little preteen! And she is definitely not in jail. Though she does look very serious (in her very serious sweater) as she addresses the camera.]

Hi! For anybody I don’t know, my name’s Mabel! Mabel Pines. And today I have good news and also bad news that has some good news? The totally good news is that I’m doing sweater commissions! So if anybody needs a last minute Hanukkah gift or something for Christmas or any other holiday, just let me know. All I need is a size and what design you want and you’ve got it! My rates are very reasonable.

Now the bad news! So... people might have seen that video on the network last week? The creepy one where the guy who looks like my brother was all like today I’m gonna walk on glass and freak everybody out? Well-- long story short but that’s actually not Dipper! That’s a demon. His name’s Bill and he’s pretty evil and also he can take over people’s bodies. [She looks off camera for a second before continuing.]

Which is all kinds of freaky, right? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! There're ways to tell if you're dealing with him or not.

[She holds up a pair of visual aids to the screen. Marvel at this 13 year old's artistic skills.]

And I’ve got these in helpful pamphlet form, too, for anybody who wants. See, I told you there was more good news! So, just to recap-- creepy wrong pupils is bad, triangles are extra bad, and please don’t just punch Dipper or anyone else you might suspect before you check for the warning signs.

--oh and if you’re gonna call us probably don’t call Stan first? It’s bad if his communicator thing goes off during one of his [Airquotes:] “business deals.” It scares the pugs.

[Mabel gives the camera a thumbs up!! Before turning it off.]

Uuuuuh. Because we're not just built, we're copied, and the source we're copied from is a real fucking person! You know, a human being, with hangups and history and Hanukkah memories that don't make any goddam sense for a robot, alright? What the hell do you want from me!

I'm sorry! It's just weird to copy a person!

[Says the kid who's literally done just that.]
bestever: (POINT;)

[personal profile] bestever 2015-12-05 06:11 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, is it? And I guess you can write a whole person from scratch, huh?

...Okay, you have a point. It's a lot easier to just photocopy myself.
bestever: (SULK; what does it matter anymore)

[personal profile] bestever 2015-12-05 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, see? See? Nobody wants to mess around wi--

... Wait a second. That smells like you're talking from experience.
ursawhiner: going like what up, I'm ghostbustin. (Walking around with my dick out)

[personal profile] ursawhiner 2015-12-05 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
What? You can't photocopy people! That's crazy!
bestever: (DISTANT;)

[completely flat:] Right. Absolutely nuts. Not like I just said that's pretty much how it was made or anything. You know.
ursawhiner: You leave them, you have to burn them. (As with all friendships it ends in fire.)

[personal profile] ursawhiner 2015-12-06 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Right!

--Okay, no, I totally made paper copies of myself once.

[RIP Tyrone.]
bestever: (SHINE;)

Yyyyyuuuuh huh.


And where is he now, if I may?
ursawhiner: (Pianos can definitely explode.)

Turns out paper isn't very durable. They all disintegrated in a soda shower.

[His eyes look a little haunted.]
bestever: (Default)

[personal profile] bestever 2015-12-06 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Dis-- Oh, holy shit. Are you... Did you make paper copies?
ursawhiner: (I spilled Capri-Sun on my jam-jams!)

[personal profile] ursawhiner 2015-12-06 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
That's what I said! A photocopier can't do much else.
bestever: (CONSIDER; it's why i never sympathize no)

[personal profile] bestever 2015-12-06 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I honestly can't even begin to put into words what a terrible idea that is.
ursawhiner: (Wiggy wow. Wiggy wiggy wowie wow.)

I figured that out after they locked me in the closet with a snack pack of cheese and cracker sticks.
