What happens when you see your teen crush again, after you've both grown up?
Let's brush off some nostalgia, and make old dreams come true.
This is Gravity Falls, after all - weirder things have happened!

Mason "Dipper" Pines turned his car into the empty gravel parking lot, and parked. The Mystery Shack looked just the same - maybe a little cleaner around the property, but the S on the sign was still fallen, and the roof was still missing the same shingles. There were some new hand-drawn signs advertising new ridiculous exhibits, but it still felt as though he could've gone back five years, to the day he turned thirteen, and nothing would be different.
Soos has done a good job with the place, Dipper thought, crunching toward the gift shop door. He'd thought about this moment for half a decade: coming back here after the summer of life-changing adventure, and what it would be like to see his friends again.
To see... her.
The same old bell rang when the door closed after him. The same cheesy merchandise; the same smell of forest must, old wood, and low-quality vinyl. His throat choked with nostalgia. Nobody was at the cash register - the room was empty.
No, wait, it wasn't. A very familiar blue and white cap rose from behind the counter, where its wearer had apparently been squatting. Long red hair rearranged itself. Gray eyes stayed locked on her cell phone. She was so much shorter! No, Dipper was the one who had gotten taller...
"Hi and welcome to the Mystery Shack, let me know if you have any questions." She recited. And then she looked up.
Wendy Corduroy's mouth corners curled slowly into a grin. Her eyes showed no surprise - how did she always stay so cool?
"Hey, Dipper. Finally. Shit. You grew up, dude."
For his part, Dipper felt his heart leap into a gallop as he stared back, trying to keep his eyes at face level. "Uh... you did too, Wendy. I mean, hey. Hi. I was hoping you still worked here. I, uh... want my hat back."
She slid over the counter and walked past him to the door. She was wearing short jean shorts now instead of her usual long jeans, and her legs were pale and smooth.
"Cool, dude. I want mine. C'mon, I was just about to take a break. There's a sweet spot in the woods out back that's good for, you know, swapping hats."
Dipper swallowed, remembered to breathe, and followed her, the bell ringing behind him.

Two static scenes and two appearance presets included. CUA of the Mystery Shack is low poly and probably only good as a background.
Also included: Plugin preset for using Naturalis, and a 2nd torso texture if you want smaller areolas.
NOTE: If you don't use Naturalis, then Contortionist plugin is a must for her boobs to hang properly.
If you add her to your own scenes, add Contortionist to her and

Not included in this resource because it's not Hub-hosted, but it works fine in place of Dipper's hat (which has clipping problems of its own, despite my efforts to keep her head shape "normal" and re-wrapping it.)
The fully made-from-scratch skin is 8K and in JPG for size considerations; let me know if you have a need for the uncompressed PNGs for something and I'll throw them up on Mega for you.
Some pics to give an idea of the detail level, with no ReShade applied. Click for full size:
