Circus AU
After 16-year-old Dipper and Mabel come out of the closet, they get into a huge fight with their homophobic parents. They want to send the two to Conversion Therapy, and so the twins take all the money they have and run away from home. They get to Seattle where the famous international circus Mindscape is. Mabel convinces Dipper to buy tickets and hope they have a chance to talk to one of the employees and ask for a job. And actually during the show, Dipper is noticed by a hot handsome 18-year-old guy doing a show with Aerial Silk - Bill.
He takes the twins to his caravan after the end of the show and hears their story. He agrees to help them get a job in the circus, because they need performers on the trapeze, and he thinks the twins would be perfect for that. Dipper and Mabel sign a contract with the ringmaster and become official members of the circus.
For the next 6 years, the twins travel around the world with the circus and train hard to be ready for their big premiere. Dipper has suffered from fear of heights since he was a child, but with the help of Bill, he overcomes his fear after a few years and becomes very good on the trapeze. Well, as Dipper experiences its premiere at age 22, he notices that ... well, Bill likes Dipper... in a romantic way. And he found out by that after his performance in his caravan, Bill visited him with a bouquet of roses and with saying a simple nice compliment he kissed Dipper.
The two then become a couple (just as Mabel starts dating fire performer Pyronica) and continues to travel around the world till one day they arrive in Oregon. And to their dismay, not only the grunkles but also their parents will come to their show, noticing them right away. But as soon as the show is over, parents not argue or are angry, they just pounce on their children, crying and apologizing for being so cruel and regreting what they have done. And later they also want to know who the handsome blond man and the cute pink-haired girl behind them are...
