Another five - yes, really, FIVE! Chapters are now live for The Historic Horrors of Family Northwest, the 6th Episode of Return to the Falls, my surprisingly acclaimed Dipcifica / Next Summer Gravity Falls Fanfiction Series.
This episode features nymphs, gnomes and destruction at the hands of Kevin and Mabel, but it's far from the end for Dipper and Pacifica's worries. We learn more of the Northwest's corruption, and a dapper, triangular nemesis makes his dreaded return.

It's nearly halfway through Summer, and Preston Northwest is acutely aware that an old 'friend' will be visiting any day now to negotiate a deal. Meanwhile, Toby Determined, haunted by the judgement of his Great-Grampy, finds himself at the discovery of a scandal.
With Dipper growing ever-desperate to ensure their relationship will last past the summer, and Pacifica growing increasingly perturbed by the true role of her family in Gravity Falls - egged on by the Grunkle's own investigations - something has got to give.
How far has the Northwest family's power truly declined? How much influence did the family truly wield? And how does Pacifica herself key into the family's legacy?
