Last Chapter-

Dipper explains, "Summerween is like Halloween but in the Summer." Mabel continues, "The people of Gravity Falls love Halloween so much that they celebrate it twice every year! And they chose June 22 to do that!" They both gasp, "WE WILL NEED TO GET COSTUMES FOR YOU!"

Ford asks, "So it's basically Halloween but in the Summer?" Mabel chuckles, "Yes!" Dipper states, "We're masters at dressing up!" Ford considers, "Sounds interesting... But I'm in my 60s, don't you think I'm a little old?" Mabel says, "Grunkle Stan dressed up as a vampire last year..." You chuckle, "Eh, you might say you're masters, but I'm awesome at dressing up." Mabel chuckles jokingly, "Hey! We're the masters of Summerween!" You chuckle back, "I will become your greatest nightmare, it's a deal!" You and Mabel shook hands. The bet was set.

You walk around town with the adventure group looking for stores. There was a smell of roses with a weird tint of coffee. Mabel says, "Ooh!.. These stores are pretty!" Mabel whispers to Dipper loudly, "What if I'm Red Riding Hood and you're the wolf?" Dipper whispers back, "I had to dress as a wolf once, I was knawed on by a wolf once, so I don't like wolves." Dipper looked back at Ford as Ford looked away and pretended not to hear that conversation. You all stopped. Dipper said, "Let's split. Mabel and I are going to do our own thing. And you will do yours. Make it a surprise for each other." Ford stood there, then remarked, "I guess I'll go with Y/N. There are two of you in your team, so there should be two people on Y/N's team too." Dipper stood hesitant about leaving Ford, but he nodded and said, "I guess it's the only fair way."

Dipper and Mabel walked away. You couldn't see them after a while. You then turned to Ford, "I use Halloween as an opportunity to get myself clothes I otherwise wouldn't get." Ford thought about it, "Hmm... That certainly gives me more ideas. But I think I'll stay in my clothes." You shrug, "That's fine. I was thinking, since I moved to Gravity Falls. I have a casual outfit, a summer outfit, but no formal outfit." Ford shrugged, "So are you going to get yourself a suit?" "Yeah, I'll get myself a suit," You articulated. Ford chuckled, "Sounds like a plan!"

You went inside the tailor's store. You walked up to the counter with Ford behind you and the person said, "Hello, two fine suits for two fine gentlemen?" You cleared your throat, "Actually I'm a woman and I'm the one getting my suit." The person excused, "I-I'm so sorry for that, ma'am. Come in..." You nodded and went inside, Ford said, "I'm going to wait out here..." He sat on one of the chairs and sighed. He grabbed one of the (outdated) magazines and started to read it. He wasn't in this dimension for 30 years, so reading about the past on Earth was still interesting to him.

The tailor took you behind. After eyeing you for a bit, he finally asked, "Excuse me, ma'am, but are you that girl from the news?" You responded, "Oh, yeah, I am." "F/N L/N, is it?" He asked. You nodded, "Indeed, that's my name."

He gestured for you to stand in front of the full-body mirror. You stood there, and the tailor measured you. He started up a conversation, "Business has been going not good..." You ask him, worried that he might not be a good tailor, "Why is that?" He picked out some clothes, and started adjusting them to your body shape, "Two things happened: My customers received good clothes, and never had to come back again. And people started having more informal parties..." You sighed, "That's not fair, perhaps there could be a formal party this year! You could never know!" The man shrugged, "I guess you're right, madame..." You looked back at the young man as he was making your clothes. He then explained, "Is it okay if I make a bit of a surprise for you?" You said, "Sure, why not? As long as it looks good and proper." He then explained, "I haven't been able to get white fabric lately, is it okay if I use golden yellow?" You thought about it, "It's a yes with me."
