Dipper

I stood there, frozen in my thoughts, trying to process what I had just heard. Didn't he just call me Pinetree? Isn't that...no, it couldn't have been. Right? I pulled the radio from my backpack, and took a breath, then spoke. "Ford, I-I'm on my way back." "Good, good! I can't wait to see the sketch of this creature you were talking about!" As I walked back, I debated about keeping that little interaction to myself, or telling someone about it. Once I reached the door, I decided that it'd be better to keep it to myself. Maybe the guy saw the tree on my hat and just said it. But he did have an eyepatch...and Bill only has one eye...but he didn't have a human form, the last time I checked. I made my way to the basement. It couldn't have been him! The guy was too...pretty and handsome...to be the floating triangle. Wait-did I just call a stranger pretty and handsome?! What is up with me today? "Ah, Dipper-how was it?" I snapped out of my thoughts. "It was fun! And here's the information I dug up on it." I said, handing him my journal. He took it, and looked at the sketch I'd made. "Nice." He held his chin, and read all the information about the creature. "Its eyes change color depending on its mood? It can be invisible?" He turned to me, excitement in his eyes. "This-Dipper, this is incredible!" "I know! Oh, and I, uh, have something else." I sat my bag down on the ground, and pulled out the weird fruits/vegetables on the table. "You were able to gather these?" "Yes. I was hoping maybe we could run some tests and see if any of them are posionus?" "Of course, of course! But you'll have to wait until tomorrow for the results. I'm a bit busy today." "I can wait! It's not a problem! Thank you, Ford!" "You're welcome!" I then went upstairs, threw my bag on the floor, and flipped onto my bed, staring at the ceiling. It couldn't habe been him. He must have just been a random teen exploring the woods. I held my hands up in the air, pretending that I had caught something, but then I saw what was on the back of my hand. A circle, with different symbols in the squares, and inside that circle was a one-eyed triangle. It looked to be engraved in my skin.
