**Gideon Gleeful** is a minor antagonist in the 2016 limited series, *Cartoon Parody*, though originally the major antagonist from Disney XD's *Gravity Falls*.

He is a fraudulent child psychic, whose hunger for ultimate power motivates him to manipulate and intimidate others into giving him what he wants.

He first made his debut in the episode "Disney Channel's House of Villains".

## Personality

Li'l Gideon is a self-proclaimed television psychic whose real mission is to take down his competition, the Mystery Shack. He uses his "cuteness" as an advantage to get what he wants and admits that people have a hard time saying "no" to him because of it. It seems that he can be kind when he needs to be, as seen with most of his dates with Mabel.

He is manipulative, cunning, and sly, tricking Stan in "The Deep End" into getting glued to the deckchair. He speaks with a Southern American dialect. He is spoiled, ungrateful, bratty, selfish, and abusive towards his parents in ways such as throwing ice cream, yelling at them, making a fuss, and breaking lamps. His mother appears to fear him. He's also very vengeful and jealous, even to the point of trying to murder Dipper, and then Mabel in "The Stanchurian Candidate" after being rejected by Mabel once again and losing the debate to Stan.

He can also be very rude, obnoxious, and argumentative; an example is shown in "Little Dipper," where people are buying cars from his dad and he calls them "Mouth-breathing fools" behind their backs.

He is deeply arrogant, believing himself to be above everyone else in Gravity Falls, at one point claiming that they are "sheep" who need him.

He is enemies with Dipper because he believed Dipper got in between Mabel and him during "The Hand That Rocks the Mabel." He is also enemies with Stan Pines, being a competitor towards the Mystery Shack.

He also seems to be completely obsessed with obtaining the power that the journals would give him, going so far as to attempt to track down Dipper and Mabel when they were leaving Gravity Falls and ignoring their claims to not have the first journal.

He is extremely manipulative, lying to the residents of Gravity Falls to get them to do what he wants, such as telling them Dipper and Mabel blew up his "statue" with dynamite to try to get them arrested.

Due to getting almost everything he wants, Gideon can become severly unhinged when something is beyond his reach.

He refuses to accept the fact that Mabel wants nothing to do with him, being in complete denial about him feelings; At one point, he claimed she loved him, but just didn't know it yet (which may have been incited by Bill telling him they were "destined" to be together).

## Appearence

Li'l Gideon is a short, stout kid with white pompadour hair bigger than his head. His hair is naturally white, although it was speculated that the color was the cause of the amulet. This is proven wrong in "Blendin's Game" where he appears as a baby with white hair on a defaced poster. He has an upturned nose, blue eyes and three freckles on each of his cheeks. He wears a baby blue suit, a black shirt, and an American flag pin on the left side of his collar, with brown, polished shoes.
