video } entry 2

[Dipper looks even more frazzled than usual. The stress lines that always surround his eyes are more pronounced than usual.]

So, you might have noticed a really strange transmission that went through? That... that's from my world. His name's Bill Cipher. He looks like a surprisingly well dressed triangle, and he's... some kind of demon, I guess. He can get into your head and mess with your dreams and just be creepy.

[He leans in closer to the camera.]

Whatever you do, don't trust him. Really, it's probably best to run as far away as you can if you see him. And let me know if he somehow gets into your head. I've gotten him out before, I can do it again.

[He sits back a bit.]

...that's about it. Any questions?

[He squints at her, trying to tell if she's being sarcastic or not. He's very used to not being taken seriously.] Yeah. You'd all be in a lot more trouble if I wasn't here.

[ for once, absolutely not sarcastic ]

I should think so. When dealing with such creatures, someone with experience is quite an important thing.

Yeah, it sure would have been nice last time. I ended up walking around with a hole in my chest for fifteen minutes before I learned that in the Mindscape you can do anything.

...considering I was walking around with a hole in my chest, I probably should have figured that out more quickly. The rules of the physical world definitely weren't in play.

I'm very tempted to ask if you shall indulge me and tell me what the Mindscape is - it sounds almost like the concept of a dream.

[ at least in the philosophical way. ]

That's... really pretty much what it is. A mishmash of dreams and memories and... I dunno. Your mind? [The real answer is, Dipper doesn't know. He doesn't know nearly as much as he wishes he did. What kind of expert is he?]

Let me see that I understand - the demon you're speaking of can enter one dreams and mind? and you have - you can manipulate said mind?

[ so very curious, you might be her new favorite ]

Not exactly. I mean... sort of. It's complicated? [He grimaces. It would be so much easier if he actually understood this stuff himself.] You can't manipulate other peoples' minds, exactly, but you can manipulate yourself within the mind.

The mind can be a complicated and quite terrifying.

[ slowly. ]

You're quite brave to face that.

You really think so? [Dipper smiles slowly, bolstered by the praise.] I mean, I do what I can. It's not like I could leave my great uncle's head to be invaded by a demon.

Of course I do. If we didn't have your advice, how could we hope to know how to deal with that being? We should be grateful for even that.

[ never let it be said elphie doesn't count her blessings. ]

[Dipper doesn't know how to deal with people actually thinking his advice is a good thing, but he likes it.]

Yeah. Cool. Well I'm happy to help. I do this kind of thing a lot back home.

You battle the supernatural at home?

Sure, there's all kinds of weird stuff back in Gravity Falls. My sister and I are great at fighting it.

No school?

[ she really has to ask ok ]

It's summer. [He doesn't have to think about school until September.]
