None Like it Hot [closed]

“But who cares about the gnomes?

Am I right?”

Dipper grinned and shook his head. He hated those creepy little creatures with every fiber of his being- but strangely, he didn’t really feel any negative emotions thinking about them right now. He just felt amused, and rather bubbly, even. No, really, he did feel bubbly. It started as an odd popping sensation in his gut but gradually began to build up in his throat, like he’d been drinking something very fizzy.

Had it been from swallowing the water earlier? It had to be, he hadn’t eaten anything else. All he did know was that it was starting to make him feel a little sick, and yet he still couldn’t worry about it. He just laughed, and laughed, and laughed- and then swam to the edge of the pond and laughed- and then began to cough and retch painfully between fits of laughter. It would have hurt, if he didn’t feel so numb, he was sure. The fit of coughing was enough to again momentarily snap him out of his daze, feeling the slightest twinge of panic in his chest.

What was this water doing to him?

Before he could lose this train of thought he tried to pull himself out of the water again, fingers gripping to the grass, but his hands were too slimy and his muscles too weak to pull himself up. He felt even weaker than usual.

“T-Togs.. something’s.. not right..”

Why were there so many rocks at the bottom of the pool? Were all of them even rocks? He couldn’t tell if he was just dizzy, but looking down through the surface of the pond now, he thought he could see a lot of oddly shaped ‘rocks’ that looked fairly white…

Dipper listened to the other, paddling around him a bit, keeping his body active.

Why did he feel he needed to move around? His body was getting sore, wanting to lock up… Shouldn’t he want to stop swimming around? No more thinking, just fun.

The boy perked up as Beans pulled himself out of the water, the boy stopped swimming looking at the other, still a wide smile on his face

“Beans?

Nothings wrong! everything’s great!” He said in a loud tone, waving the other back to the water, “Come on, you’ll burn up out there…” He trailed off shifting his arm a bit, his shoulder giving a discomforting pop, “Ow…” He stated, his mind trying to switch into survival mode, almost to far gone to do it on its own, but Beans’s outburst had helped.
