[Closed to Mabel]
[It happens very suddenly. One minute, he's running around with his twin sister Mabel and their friend Soos, tackling yet another one of the many mysteries Gravity Falls has to offer (in this case, a secret society of mole-like mushroom people living under the bowling alley that presumably mutated from the foot fungus from all the discarded bowling shoes that were tossed into the pit in the basement) and the next he's falling down a hole in the ground into a very, very strange place. For a moment, he wonders if Gravity Falls is home to a very literal hole to China (it wouldn't be that out there, despite being scientifically impossible) but upon looking around, he realizes that while this place has some similarities to cultures back home, it's definitely not of his world. For one, he's pretty sure he'd have heard about a place that has giant vines like this and for two, it seems almost like a blend of multiple cultures and also very...nineteen-twenties? He knows his history and social studies pretty well and he's almost positive this place doesn't correspond exactly to any specific place on Earth. It seems like a mix of different places and even times.]
[It's a new world altogether.]
[...one with hazardous traffic and possibly no posted speed limits, something he he quickly realizes as he darts out of the way of a old-timey looking car.]
[Unlike some who would perhaps find it shocking to be suddenly transported to another dimension, he's not surprised at all. He'd been expecting to fall into some random other universe any day now.]
Had to happen sometime.
[Of course, like many strange things that happen to him, this particular happening has turned out a little...unpredictable. After all, those spirit wilds are all over the city, include the not-so-nice areas of town. Right now, he doesn't realize that the very capricious whims of fate have made it so that instead of running into other displaced people and potentially helpful sorts, instead of landing in a place where he could have had all kinds of cheerful meetings and introductions, he's going to get into a wholenew world of trouble first.]
[Naturally, he's oblivious to all this, but he still does know he's up to his neck in a whole lot of something, and he really hopes he doesn't have to do any of this alone. So starts meandering around the vines trying to find his sister, who he's almost positive fell in with him.]
Mabel!
[It's only halfway to a shout, loud enough for her to hear but hopefully not loud enough to attract any undue attention from strangers. This...doesn't look like a nice area of town.]
Mabel! Where are you?
[She did fall down with him, right?]
