Alex and Dipper followed Mirra out to her trailer. But it was different. Not exactly normal. The bathroom was completely gone, leaving the interior bedroom exposed.
"What the?" Dipper and Alex asked. Mirra was already examining the trailer.
"Yep." Mirra said. "I totally jinxed it." She frowned. "I hope it's not exactly like Eureka." She shuddered.
"Ok, so what is Eureka anyway?" Dipper asked.
"A town. In Oregon. Where weird things happen...A fictional town." Mirra answered.
"Like Gravity Falls!" Alex offered. Mirra ignored him.
"We need to stop this. This can't happen again." Mirra looked down at the floor of the trailer. "A Mr. Adequate bar?" She muttered something unintelligible.
"What was that?" Dipper asked.
"Nothing. Just that a couple people who shouldn't exist have been eating chocolate in my trailer. Also this is getting more like Eureka."
"I don't like any of this. I wish you guys hadn't told me about the show." Dipper said, looking at the ground. "And now the universe is falling apart."
"Oh, Dip." Mirra said. 
She paused for a second. "You know, I think I might have more amnesium somewhere, if you really want to forget." 
"Amnesium?" Dipper asked.
"It's like this powder stuff that makes you forget. I guess I might as well be honest and say that I used it on you before."
"You WHAT?" Dipper asked. 
"It's nothing, really! You found out about something that might have caused you or someone else to get killed so I put some in your lemonade when you weren't looking. Nevermind, I was just saying it was an option."
"I am never drinking lemonade again." Dipper muttered.
"Dip, I'm really sorry."
"How many secrets have you kept from me? How many important secrets that could mean something important like the difference between life and death?"
"For the record, I know more about Gravity Falls than either of you." Alex mentioned.
"That's great, Alex. But none of us know what's going on right now, and there are a few monsters that you don't know about that could eat you if they got the chance!"
"How do you know I don't know about them?" Alex asked.
"Oh, so now you're Mr. Omniscient, huh?! Well that's great! Then why don't you tell us what's happening right now and everything can go back to normal!"
"I really appreciate knowing that my life is entertainment in your universe." Dipper said, glaring at both of them. 
"Maybe if someone hadn't- ok, you know what?! That sentence isn't even worth finishing! I'm done with you people!" Mirra said. She turned to storm off but was stopped by Mabel.
"CUPCAKES!!!!!" Mabel yelled, holding a plate with fresh cupcakes. "You guys should have helped decorate though." Alex, Mirra and Dipper looked at each other before grabbing a cupcake from the plate. Mirra and Dipper both took a bite, but Alex gave it a weird look and just held it in his hand.
"Thanks, Mabel." Mirra said, apparently relieved that the argument had stopped, at least temporarily.
"What were you guys arguing about?" Mabel asked. "Scientific-y things?"
"Yeah, kinda. Also that." Mirra said, pointing at the trailer.
"Woah, what happened?" Mabel asked. 
"A paradox, I guess." Mirra answered. "Oh, yeah. Mabel, did you get my note about Fluffy?"
Mabel nodded.
"Oh good. He was acting weird earlier so I wanted to make sure you were disciplining him."
"Wait, who's Fluffy?" Alex asked.
"HA! Told you you didn't know!" Mirra said. "He's a giant bird."
"Oh. So...wait, how does it work that there's a creature in Gravity Falls I don't know about?" Alex asked. Mirra looked like she was about to change the topic. Instead Mabel did.
"You didn't eat your cupcake..." Mabel said to Alex. She looked sad. Mirra glared at him.
"Eat the cupcake. NOW." Mirra demanded.
"Ok, fine!" Alex said before taking a mouthful of cupcake. He gave Mabel a thumbs up before swallowing it. "They're good."
Mabel smiled, satisfied. Mirra looked back at the trailer.
"We should leave before the rest of the trailer reappears." Mirra suggested. "But I need to get some stuff out of the trailer first." She hopped into the trailer through the nonexistent back wall and Alex and Dipper followed.
"Mabel, go ahead and put the cupcakes away." Mirra said. Then she went to one of the cabinets and started rummaging for things.
"Let's see... sound grenade, earplugs, random crystals, feathers... oh well here's the amnesium." She tossed the vial at Dipper, who flinched and caught it but then threw it on one of the beds.
"I don't need the amnesia stuff." Dipper said. 
"That's fine." Mirra replied. "I'll just take the sound grenade and the earplugs in case we need to scare off a monster."
"What is a sound grenade?" Dipper asked.
"You'll find out if we need to use it." She jumped out of the trailer and Dipper and Alex followed. 

this part ends slightly more abruptly than i'd like, but whatever.
