Why Didn't Dipper and Pacifica Ever Date?

with so many unanswered questions and mysteries to explore and gravity falls to the stay there's only one that really keeps me up at night why didn't differ in Pacifica ever date now I'm sure we can come up with a plethora of answers but trophy toad I truly believe it was just a matter of time gravity falls only ran for two seasons and Pacifica's Redemption arc I guess fully manifested right before the mid-season finale it would have made absolutely no sense to give dipper a girlfriend in the final quarter of the series although it would have prevented dippers cringy plot and roadside attraction so I guess it's worth lamenting after all there's no denying that sports are beginning to fly at the editor West's mansion mystery but because her she's ready for the series to wrap up with there being so much ground to cover it really didn't make sense to include Pacifica in the episodes leading up to we're mageddon because the team behind the show would have had to work with the new dynamic dipper on good terms with Pacifica and getting a little flirty and it likely would have just taken away too much time now this is somewhat rectified and gravity falls lost legends as the first story is centered on Pacifica dipper and Mabel which kind of shows off the new dynamic but mainly further specific OHS development in a very cool way you see in this story face-off Pacifica shows up to the mystery shack for help wanting to search through the journals for anything that can help her look great for her family photo shoot however she ends up somebody in the face stealer who steals Mabel's face dipper and Pacifica then had to travel into gravity falls his underground black-market confront the face dealer Pacifica learns a valuable lesson about how looks aren't everything and how she just has to worry about looking like herself and ends up even hugging dipper and Mabel for teaching her that lesson although it does yield a family photo shoot that definitely embarrasses the hell out of her parents badass who cares eat the rich what's great about this canon adventure is not like they just flipped a switch and suddenly Pacifica was dipper and Mabel's best friend she does behave much more like a friend to them but her Achilles heel is still prevalent the superficial tendency that she adopted from her family however dipper and Mabel hubber break away even if it's just a little bit but let's take it a step further if gravity falls ran on for just a little bit long let's say if the story was expanded to one more season this hypothetical means we're magetta and all that would be in a season three what else could have transpired between the relationship of different Pacifica how would have that change gravity falls as we know it in what ways could it have benefited the story these are the questions I want to give answers to first off why do different Pacifica even need to date why can't they just be good friends I hang out with each other well to that I say they don't I think a lot of the hypotheticals I'm about threw out would work if they were just friends but one I would hate a will they won't they or maybe I like him but I don't know and dipper being like oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh but one socially I think dipper would have appreciated a win and for Pacifica I think not just a friendship but an actual romantic relationship of someone who wasn't stinking rich would have done wonders for her character in a way we're putting a friend label on it wouldn't have been nearly as impactful come on think of the North West family what would injure their ego and pride more Pacifica being friends of people not in the same tax bracket or Pacifica dating someone not in the tax bracket I think Nathaniel Northwest would have literally had a heart attack and I think saying that would have greatly benefited Savickas art have her completely Center ground against her parents and all facets for her to truly embrace every part of herself would be loved having someone who loves her for who she is and not just her materialistic possessions I think Pacifica would have been completely willing to try anything and everything even if it didn't previously sue her lifestyle I want to see dipper and Pacifica at the gravity falls diner eating flapjacks made by lazy susan I want to see dipper Pacifica Mabel engage in water balloon fights and even embark on more mysteries together which is also another big status quo change I think would accompany this relationship not that every adventure would include Pacifica we would still have a lot of vintage mystery twin adventures but every now and then Pacifica tags along maybe it's a dipper Mabel I'm Civic adventurer maybe it's just different Pacifica maybe the whole gang is there but with Pacifica coming from a very powerful and influential family in gravity falls I think tipper could uncover some serious secrets about gravity falls imagine the Northwest attends some annual rich people only banquet and much to the dismay of Pacifica's parents dipper is her plus-one however dipper does his thing and notices that something is super off unravelling deeper conspiracies and grabby balls things that go all the way up to the top wouldn't that be fun a few episodes sprinkled in here and there we're differ on masks all the villains on the rich side of town this gentleman isn't just a snake he's a literal snake from outer space and not that dipper or Mabel would ever use Pacifica for her money but I think Pacifica would be willing to use her resources to dipper and Mabel's advantage that monster just kidnapped candy and Grenda and now he's halfway across the ocean onto that deserted island Pacifica comes in clutch we can use my private jet are you sure Pacifica all right fine we'll use the jet ski or staying on brand with the cynical humor of gravity falls at the end of an adventure we're a mystery solved but now dipper and Mabel are in deep [ __ ] and they don't know how they're gonna get out of this one until Pacifica whips out a stack and pays off whoever is giving them trouble oh yeah I guess money can solve all of our problems thanks Pacifica but outside of changes in the adventures and dynamics I think it also would have just brought more fresh interactions that we didn't know we needed imagine Pacifica giving San advice on how to make even more money or Pacifica knowing that Stan is driven by money and family purposely let some infiltrate Northwest mansion under the guise of a rich successful businessman complete with from the old school disguise that we saw anatella to Stan's there's just so much potential with Pacifica as not just an ally but as dippers girlfriend that it pains me that we did not get to see the relationship blossom I truly think it would have made a big difference and gravity falls for the better not to mention it would have been great to see Dipper have a proper summer romance it would have been great for him able to come to gravity falls wanting a boyfriend wanting the greatest romance of her life but constantly striking out because of whatever reason and ultimately coming to the conclusion that she just needs herself as shown at the engraved tree that reads Mabel Plus Mabel encased in a heart in the credits of rumor getting 3 whereas dipper comes to gravity falls wanting to uncover the secrets wanting to learn every there is to know pining for Wendy the girl who was way older than him and out of his league to instead learn a valuable lesson not just about family but about romance about growing up I feel as if dipper really needed to learn more lessons in love and I think having that off of an actual relationship that he worked towards and grew from along the way learning not to judge a book by its cover just because it's a rich cover and Felicity would have came out an even more well-rounded character roadside attraction probably wouldn't have happened not to mention when the North West family lost her mansion and I imagine a decent chunk of their money Pacifica would have already knew that she would have been okay because she already made friends in the middle class who accept her for who she is who never cared about her money and already showed her a better way of life I can see her befriended candy and Grenda so when dipper and Mabel depart from gravity falls and return home she still would have been okay maybe they decided dipper doesn't need a date Pacifica because he's gonna go home eventually anyways but I don't know for everything I presented today I think it would have been a great development for these characters but as always these are just my thoughts and I wanna hear yours what do you think would you have wanted to see more from a
