[As soon as he knocked on the door, he will be able to find one Mabel Pines with scattered candy wrappers all over the floor! Don't ask how many she ate or how they got there. ]

Hey, Superhiro, long time no see! It's certainly been quite the wait, eh?

[Ehhhhh?]

[zerotohiro]

[Annnd he raises an eyebrow.] You think it's really been that long? [He's onto you, Pines. Kinda.]

[meowbel]

Yeah, why not! I mean, it's been a while since we saw each other in person! What better way to catch up until now?

[Why no, she definitely isn't hiding something. What are you talking about?]

[zerotohiro]

O..kay...[This is still something he's Mildly Concerned about.] Let's catch up. You've been here for a few weeks now anyway right? There's probably a whole bunch of stuff you've got questions on and other stuff you've seen around here.

[meowbel]

[As Mabel let Hiro in, she tried her best to clean all the candy wrappers up! With all this mess, she needed to do her best to be a good host for her brother's best friend!]

Kind of? My brother did tell me that Cerealia is really dangerous and that I should be super careful. But he really didn't tell a lot outside of that.

[Well...there was that one little mention how about he died buuutttt maybe it's better to keep that to herself for now]

[zerotohiro]

He's not exactly wrong. [Considering that Dipper got killed...and also followed an illusion of his family that made a whole group of them entangle themselves with a monster in the jungle...and a couple of other things. Still, he watches her as he enters the apartment and he can't help but cant his head again.

Stress-eating. Maybe it was just a thing girls did.] There's a lot about this place we still don't really know either, including how people can get teleported out of here. We've got theories but nothing solid yet.

[meowbel]

[That and he should have seen some of the stuff she ate! Between inedible leaves, a gallon worth of sprinkles and scratch and sniff stickers? This was nothing!]

Oh yeah? What kind of theories you and my brother came up with? [She said before popping another candy into her mouth. At the same time, she looked down at her collection before handing one right toward him]

You want some? There's no need to be shy, I got a ton where that came up if you want one!

[zerotohiro]

[There's a pause as he just...stares.]

I'll get back to the theories in a sec once you explain how you managed to get this much candy when you just got here.

[meowbel]

Oh, that's easy! I just bought whatever candy I could find at the market! And when most of them were on sale, how could I resist?

[And especially the pink ones!]

[zerotohiro]

Dude you're gonna make yourself sick. [He sounds more impressed than anything.] ...got any you can share?

[meowbel]

That's the point! And what makes it fun!

[She said before grabbing a handful and shoving it straight to Hiro]

But of course! Take as many as you want, there's sooo much more where that came from! Seriously, I got like a ton back in my room! And Sophia Elizabeth is helping me eat some too!

[zerotohiro]

Hopefully you're saving some for when Dipper comes back. [...but that doesn't stop him from unwrapping a candy and shoving it in his mouth.]

--And who's Sophia Elizabeth?

[meowbel]

Oh, that's my robot! Why don't you say and say hi to her!

[The moment Sophia Elizabeth happened to hear her name, that's when she smiled and waved right back at him!]

What do you think? She looks pretty awesome, don't you think?

[zerotohiro]

She's...something. [That's something. He's raising an eyebrow and soon he's approaching to get a better look at the robot.] I didn't know you activated yours too. What're you gonna do if you get bored with her?

[meowbel]

What are you nuts? Of course I'm never going to get bored of her, she's awesome! And she's an amazing friend! Anything I want to do, she wants to do it too! And especially with her drawings, you can say that she's a ...!

[With that, she breaks out what she's been hiding all this time! As she placed her hand in front of Hiro, she gently blew some glitter and thus...!]

Glitterature!

[zerotohiro]

[There's glitter on his face.

There is glitter on his face and he blinks, watching the sparkles fall from his lashes and float in front of his eyes. He shakes his head, some loose glitter sprinkling from his bangs and he laughs incredulously.]

Glitterature. [Oh man.] Please tell me you guys aren't going around decorating the whole colony with vats of glitter. [That's clearly more important than Mabel possibly growing bored with Sophia-Elizabeth.]

[meowbel]

[He wasn't the only one with glitter all over their face! Mabel did but that didn't seem to bother her! Instead, she just laughed even more!

Who doesn't want a sparkly and glitterified version of themselves anyway?]

Maybe I am, maybe I'm not! All I know is that we're totally going to make sure we rain candy for everyone! What do you say? You want to come and join us? Because I know you do...!!

[zerotohiro]

[...what a thing to debate.]

Depends. How're you gonna make it actually rain candy?

[meowbel]

By dumping some of them when we're standing on top of a building!

How else are we going to make it run candy?

[This is Mabel you're talking to, Hiro. Just don't ask]

[zerotohiro]

You know my robot flies, right? I don't do the "standing on stuff" thing anymore.

[meowbel]

But that just makes it even better! We'll just hop onto him and make it rain candy!

[Pause]

...Literally!

[zerotohiro]

If we do that, we aren't getting glitter on his armor or painting spots on him. Deal?

[meowbel]

[In that moment, Mabel thought long about this. While she gave a small pout, she stared at Hiro before giving a sigh]

Deal. But we gotta make it the best candy rain ever though! Because I want to see nothing but smiles on everyone's faces here!

[zerotohiro]

All right, all right. I think we can agree on that. Grab as much candy as you can. Baymax and I gotta suit up if we're doing this.

[meowbel]

You got it! I think we should meet straight up in the gardens in 10 minutes! You suit up and the both of us will get the goods!

[Mabel, what are you talking about? She certainly looked like she was about to operate a heist]
