Log:

Finally! Jake had been so psyched to get to Violet City ever since Hope mentioned the Ruins of Alph. He probably missed that shindig, but it didn't matter. After all, he had two pals to join him on an epic adventure through some old ruins!

He'd just sent Mabel a text telling her he'd gotten there. After a bit of planning, they decided to meet up at the Pokemon Center. Heck, it was one of the few buildings Jake could easily recognize in that strange new city. He was surprised that it was pretty small and quiet. If all cities were like this one, then maybe it wouldn't be so bad.

Anyway, the teen was waiting outside. Maybe he was a little early, but he didn't like to keep a girl waiting!

[Mabel is excited. More excited than she usually is about things. Because this time it involves a boy who isn't totally crazy and doesn't want her to be any sort of queen or bride or whatever. Ugh, it still gives her the willies sometimes just thinking about Gideon. And those gnomes.

But Jake is different! Jake is normal. At least, she really hopes he's normal. He could've been lying, but she gets a really good truthy vibe from him, so he probably wasn't. Which is good!

Dipper isn't all that excited, but she guesses that's okay because she's probably more than excited for both of them. She just wishes he'd stop being all paranoid. Gosh, Jake isn't going to kill them, sheesh.

She's bouncing up and down with Pogo when she spots Jake in the distance. She grabs Dipper's arm and tugs at it, screeching, pointing frantically at the figure she's recognized as Jake.]

EEEE!! Look Dipper! It's him! It's him!!

[She lets go of Dipper's arm to wave with both arms at Jake.]

JAKE!!

[She nudges Dipper with her elbow.]

C'mon, Dipper.

[Which is a signal to RUN AT HIM FLAILING YOUR ARMS that Dipper will probably miss. Because he's lame.

But Mabel isn't. And is indeed running at Jake and flailing her sleeves and when she gets close enough she LEAPS AT HIM.]

HI!!

[I really hope he catches her.]
