”Yeah, sure thing, dude.” She wrapped her arms around him and squeezed gently. “You okay?”
“…this past week, I’ve run into a Bill Cipher alternate. Uh…he looks like a floating Dorito.” He attempted to explain. “Made a deal with him if he left Mabel alone, but he tricked me and almost fed me and my sister to some other demon as sacrifices.
The journal protected us. On top of that, some of my alternates I’ve recently met are just…unsettling.”
"Yeah, I’ve run into him before. I didn’t know Cool Ranch had a name.” She’d have to keep that information in mind. "Is there no way to just beat the heck outta him? Maybe you can hold him down and I’ll use my ax on him.“ It sounded too simple even as she was saying it, but a girl can dream.
Wendy gave a hesitant pause at the mention of alternates. "Unsettling? How so?”
