Note: This is a partial backstory for my oc Mirra. I will answer questions if you ask them.

But keep an open mind. Because truth is hiding in between the lines.

You may know me. My name is Mirra. Sometimes I wish my life were normal. Sometimes I'm glad it isn't. But I have to warn you: don't think that you're not like the main character in that story you just read. Don't think that magic doesn't happen in real life. It does. And the magic that makes you realize this tends not to be the good kind. I admit, strange things did happen to me before Gravity Falls. I've survived countless earthquakes and several wildfires. I was attacked by a ghost. I watched someone take a picture of a ghost. But ghosts and stuff aside, my life has not been normal. On July 28th, 2012, my parents decided to take me to my godparents' house instead of my grandma's. All the way there, I watched and listened to My Little Pony related videos and songs. I really liked the show. I had heard of Gravity Falls, and it looked like something I might like, but I had never found time to watch it. My "godsister," I guess you would say, was super into introducing me to her new favorite show,Gravity Falls. I was very excited at this opportunity, and we watched all seven episodes in a row. I loved it. A few days later, I met a kid (who's name I have forgotten) who also liked Gravity falls. He drew several pictures of the character's, sang "Disco Girl" and a few other songs (which was a bit annoying) and mentioned that there were secret codes in the end credits of every episode. Another few days later, my parents and I took a trip to England. I didn't expect so many things there to remind me of Gravity Falls. There were senior bird-watchers who would NOT stop talking about dippers. There were old, mysterious ruins. I heard someone who sounded like Soos, and drove through a town that I think was called "Mabelton." Some amazing things happened to me in England. A wild horse walked up to me and touched my hand with it's nose. But one thing that happened in England, one thing I will probably never forget, was when I found the Keystone. The rock was grayish green, an almost perfect triangle, about 4-ish inches wide. A slit about an inch long cut through the bottom of it. It looked amazing. Beautiful. I picked it up and hid it in my jacket pocket so that my parents wouldn't know that I had kept something I had found at a famous, ancient, mythical castle. Tintagel. Where King Arthur and the wizard Merlin supposedly lived. I had taken something from that castle. After that, my memory is pretty sketchy. I think Bill might have messed it up so that I would have less proof of what I know is true. So it would be harder to get others to believe me. But I might as well start with what I remember:*the number 618 is everywhere. It shows up in my life more than twice as frequently as it does in Gravity Falls. I'm obsessed with a bird known as a Phoebe. I like calling them "phis" or "Phi-bz" because it sounds cuter. It turns out that phi is also a greek letter that represents the golden ratio and the number 1.618. I found a Gideon bible in my attic that had a bookmark on page 618. My parents were married on 6/18. I would tell you more, but then you would know who I am and where I live. I did the math. There's a less than a 1/327000000000000000000000000000, one in three-hundred and twenty-seven octillion, chance that it's a coincidence. That this was just some random thing that occurred and that means nothing. The only other possibilities are that Gravity Falls is real and/or someone is messing with my head. I can't keep living like this. I have no one to talk to. I don't want to tell people in person and none of the fans online believe me. I hide the information secretly. In places where no one will notice. I don't think anyone has. After I watched Irrational Treasure, I stopped watching Gravity Falls for fun. I started watching it because I had to. Bill will probably kill me for this. Last time I did something like this he confiscated the keystone and made my day miserable. I guess I should explain what the keystone does.It gives me visions. Not really long visions, just flashes of things. Faces. Creatures. Bill...It makes my face go numb. It affects my dreams. I'm not in Gravity Falls yet, but once I am, I'm going to prove this. To anyone who asks why I'm so odd.
