It hits him halfway through a bite of the greasy, over-priced pizza slice he'd stood in line an hour for at the fair - not the realization that he loves her. No, that one he knows. This realization is a lot more terrifying to think about. (Or, Dipper gets hit by a truck. Metaphorically.)

Realizing your the boy you counted as your best friend is the same person you've been trying to murder for the past year isn't the way Valerie expects to celebrate saving the world, but it's what she's stuck with. Now she just has to find a way to fix things. Saving the world, it turns out, was the easier part. (Post-PP).

Mabel Pines is a star pilot with a mission. Pacifica Northwest is a soldier turning traitor. Dipper is a scavenger who just wants to find his family. (Or, the Star Wars AU no one asked for.)

Weirdmaggedon may have ended, but it's a long way to go before everything's fixed. Stan and Dipper are just learning that the hard way.

Dipper finally gets that Valentine's card - even if it's going to give Pacifica gray hair in the process.

Fancy parties with the obscenely rich and her hovering parents are a part of her life Pacifica's come to expect by now. Fancy parties with her now 6-foot-tall boyfriend in a tux? Not so much. Dancing would be so much easier if she didn't have to look up at him now.

It takes Dipper three days to find Wendy. Three days alone. He's never missed Mabel as much as he does now. (spoilers for Weirdmaggedon Part 1)

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. It's a rare occasion that ends in the apocalypse, but the Pines family has always been an exception. Maybe it's a good thing, then, that the rules have never applied to them. Two siblings and the end of the world. One falls, one finds. (post DAMVTF)

It sneaks up on him in the slowest, most innocent of ways, which is probably why he doesn't see it coming. Dipper can be pretty oblivious, but it's hard not to realize that you're falling in love with your best friend. Even harder is getting said feelings to leave you alone. (Companion piece to Let Me Clarify).

The disaster that was nearly wiping his uncle's memory aside, at the end of the day Mabel came through and the protective circle is up - they're safe from Bill for the time-being. So Dipper should feel fine now, right? (Post-The Last Mabelcorn fic.)

"Huh," Dipper says, turning to her. "So what's that say about us?" "Probably something deep and philosophical we'll just forget." As another summer draws to a close, the Pines family takes a final trip to the beach - courtesy of Pacifica, who is not melancholy at all, thank you very much. She's actually quite happy - having a family will do that to you.

After the events of Dungeons, Dungeons, and more Dungeons, Dipper has a lot to think about. Or, as much as he can before he crashes, because wizards really wear you out, apparently.

Despite the fact that it's a prestigious affair that marks the end of her high school career, Pacifica would really rather not attend her graduation today. And no, that has nothing too do with the fact that her parents bailed again, or that the two people she really wants to see go to school a state away. Okay, maybe a little bit. (Older Dipifica).

After a ghost hunt ends in disappointment, all Dipper, Mabel, and Pacifica want to do is make it home and forget about the supernatural for a night. Unfortunately for them, this isn't exactly an option, as they find themselves face to face with some of the forest's older, more malicious inhabitants.

When a letter from her mother brings back memories Pacifica would rather forget, she's faced with confronting the past she's been ignoring for far too long. Luckily for her, she's got another family who isn't about to let her try that alone.

In the aftermath of the portal, Dipper finds himself struggling to pick up the pieces. Fortunately for him, former rich snobs whose house you helped exorcise can make pretty good friends, in these situations.

It's the Pines twins' fifth summer in Gravity Falls when Pacifica feels the need to defend herself: she does not have a blatantly obvious thing for Dipper Pines. Honest. Who likes nerds who wear the same hat for five years anyways, no matter how tall they've gotten?
