[The screen boots up, blipping out of focus ever so slightly, as the happy titles for a DRAWING TUTORIAL make their way onto, and occasionally fizzle off, the display. Distantly, this 'tune' can be heard in the background, distorting the music with its impossible, never heightening decibels.]

1.) Put THREE DOTS on YOUR PAPER or whatever object YOU'VE CHOSEN TO DEFACE!
B.) DRAW A LINE CONNECTING THE VERTICES!
3.) LAMENT your COMPLETE INABILITY to draw a SINGLE STRAIGHT LINE (Hey! No cheating, I SEE that STRAIGHT EDGE, BUB!)
4.) ADD A DOT AT THE MIDPOINT of the RIGHT and LEFT LINES!
5.) QUESTION WHAT TRULY IS RIGHT AND LEFT when perspective and YOUR LIFE are both ABSOLUTELY MEANINGLESS!
VI.) Use the midpoint to draw an oval YOU CREEPS!
7.) ADD a dot within the oval at wherever you'd like to SUBJECT YOUR JUDGEMENTAL stare first. GO ON, YOU'VE EARNED IT!!
∞.) Fail to realize you just STARTED FOLLOWING THESE INSTRUCTIONS without thought like THE SHEEPLE you are!

[All at once, the screen flashes with an obscenely bright light, aiming to seer the videos completed after image into the watchers retinas. After all, it's much easier for Bill to enter the minds of people, when they already have his image imprinted somewhere in their brains! The static emits one more alarmingly loud hiss before the picture dissipates entirely.]

the hell.
It can't be here. It can't be here. Alex's breath tightens in his chest, tighter and tighter, and he can't breathe. His fingers fist into the sheets of paper scattered over his desk, wadding them into crumpled balls.
This isn't real. This isn't real. It's not real it's not real it's not real. Keep saying it in his head. Maybe it'll come true. Maybe.
It's static, glaring into his brain. It's blank faces and arms that reach on forever and the bark flaking from trees and he can't breathe and this is too familiar. The varying pitch, the sputtering imagery.
He can't muster the musculodexterity to text. He switches on audio instead, the feed fitzing with static. He's shaking. Fuck, he's shaking.]
This isn't funny.
[Video]
"ACTUALLY, IT'S PRETTY HILARIOUS!! Big, TALL GUY like you, SHAKING LIKE A LEAF!"
[Alex may have switched their video feed off, but Bill hasn't. Rather than show himself, however, the screen instead fizzles to life with one static-filled big, yellow eye. It gazes eagerly, looking around, as if it can actually see beyond the screen it is encased in, who knows, perhaps it can.]
"But you've watched a lot of LEAVES SHAKE out in those ROTTING WOODS, HÁ̧V̢ÉN͟͠'̷T̨́ Y̕͢O͠U͘?͘"
voice
[It's easy to read the terror in his voice, the racing thud of his heart. Might be easier still to hear the swelling, creaking, splintering horrors carving through his head. He stares at that great yellow globe of an eye, hating it. Hating himself for hating it. It's not the faceless thing in his dreams. He should just turn it all off, back away. It's not what he thought it was. It can't be, because that thing doesn't have eyes.
But it's still there. Staring at him. Watching him. Shredding his mind with its static. Attacking his sense of reality, already frayed to the bone.
He wants to rip, tear, burn the thing until there's nothing left.]
You're not real!
[Deluding himself again.
What a tired coping mechanism.]
[Video]
[If you can't tell, he's mocking you.]
"HATE TO BREAK IT TO YA, SHIVERS, but YOU'RE NO SHINING EXAMPLE OF EXISTENCE YOURSELF!"
[The eye blinks as Bill reaches for the tattered shreds of Alex's remaining psyche, sifting through the foreign influence there. It's almost as though this mortal has already been tainted by something else. Interesting..
"THIS the same way you TREAT your SLENDERFRIEND?"
voice
[Ha-ha, wow, he's...he's trembling like a leaf. Like a leaf on a tall, skeleton tree. A not-tree.
This is all wrong. He's sifting through his brain, like River could. This is bad, shit shit shit shit -
Wait a second, hang on. He's...
Things with one eye?]
Oh god - Dipper said - are you the thing with one eye?
[He rasps the word out, barely coherent, too stricken and startled and struggling to make some sense of what's happening.
Doesn't even occur to him what he's saying.]
[Video]
"WHEN GRAVITY FALLS AND EARTH BECOME SKY, FEAR THE BEAST WITH JUST ONE EYE!"
[HEHE-- It's funny that anyone could ever think the prophecy was about someone other than he! But never mind all that-- this person just said something far more enlightening.]
"WELL, WELL, WELL, So PINE TREE'S been TALKING about me, has he?"
[With Stanford's mind blocked and the kid's thoughts encrypted, Bill hadn't been able to get a good read on if the twin was even here.]
"What else did he say?"
voice
It is, admittedly, not a whole lot.]
How 'bout that's none of your goddamn beeswax.
[Video]
[A beat. Other than that little tirade, Bill seems hardly nonplussed.]
"But SUIT YOURSELF. If there's ONE THING I KNOW-- AND I KNOW LOTS OF THINGS-- IT'S THAT PINE TREE GOES CRAZY WITHOUT ANSWERS. He'll come to me eventually. IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.”
voice
[Christ he's still shaking. This thing can clearly dredge up all the worst parts of himself that he keeps shoved into the posterior. How does he not give him fuel for the fire?
How does he keep this thing out, more importantly?]
Tell you what. How 'bout you take all your freaky psychic shit and cryptic code talk and ram it up your triangular anal sphincter, okay?
[Audio]
[Though usually when his vict-- business partners get to the vague swearing and semi-amusing insults, the negotiations are over. Bill will let the kid off the hook, for now.]
"LOOK, if you don't WANT any of my CRYPTIC HINTS for what LIES AHEAD; be my guest! BUT KNOW THIS-- Just because you don't SEE ME-"
[The feed glitches, the eye as gone, but the voice still remains.]
"T H A T D O E S N' T M E A N I W O N' T S E E Y O UUUUU"
voice
[For the moment oblivious to the horrible irony of his words, Alex cuts the feed and then spends the next twenty minutes trying not to have a panic attack and failing.]
