Psychonauts x Gravity Falls crossover/something in that âMystery Kidsâ vein, except on specifically the Psychonauts end Gravity Falls is treated as a weird nightmare Twilight Zone place bc. What do you mean psychic powers âarenât a Thingâ here- Hello? What??
And like- Raz is plenty happy to infodump about Psychic Science to this random 12 year old boy/these twins who admittedly kinda creepily stalked him around but seem pretty open to the idea at least (also ngl his sister has the best stuff to talk about when it comes to scrapbooking/journaling, and she thought Harold was cool so thatâs an automatic point for her in both Raz and Liliâs books-), and even if Liliâs more annoyed by the questions/on edge in general about this place, it did feel kinda cool showing off her pyrotechnics and having them react like its something theyâd never seen before (plus, Dipper did seem pretty interested in the whole idea of herbaphony/what plants had to say- also it was pretty funny seeing him freak out when she asked about that journal he was trying to hide- maybe if you didnât want it known about you shouldâve had better mental defenses, or at least not pulled it out in front of her, doofus!), but like. Itâs still weird as hell that theyâd be considered âan anomalyâ by the standards of this place (also, the fact that the maps they see donât even match their idea of Earth in the slightest- where are they?!)
Also- Raz/Lili accidentally blowing up Gideonâs whole shtick mostly on accident/mostly on purpose respectively bc on Liliâs end this guy is the biggest insult to psychics since the âPsychics are Satanicâ panic/ the âCuring-Psychics Snakeoilâ stuff, and on Razâs end- listen, heâs a circus performer, normally he has a respect for the act + even if his family never partook he knows from other carnies heâs met what it means to have to play into the kooky mysticism if it means getting enough attention to have a show, but also- like! This guy clearly is not struggling for money at all, what heâs doing is just unethical and embarassing, and like. Heâs just cold-reading/hot-reading people. Heâs just cold-reading/hot-reading people?? Heâs not even being subtle about it Raz can see the friggin cameras!!
(Aaand apparently thereâs also some freaky weird memory-deleting cult they have to worry about too, which. Yeah no THATâS a job for the Psychonauts if theyâve ever seen one, and some kind of dream-creature in the collective unconscious- just. and they think theyâre the weirdos?! What the hell, man. What the hell-)
