Chapter 1

17 year old Dipper moves to a new town as his parents are in the middle of a messy divorce. His dad already has custody of his twin sister and between his mom working to support the both of them and trying to keep custody of him, she isn't at home as much as he would like. It seems like he'll have no one to turn to until he befriends their angry, drunk next door neighbor who doesn't like anyone and no one likes him. Or so it seems so at first.

Author note: This story is heavily influenced by the netflix movie St. Vincent. So go watch that first. It is great and has Bill Murray and Melissa Mcarthy in it.
