OPEN } what if i'm far from home? oh brother i will hear you call
Who: Dipper and OPEN
Where: His rooms, around the mansion and grounds, the caves
When: 6/8 and the week after
Rating: Probably no more than PG
Summary: Mabel is gone. Dipper, of course, takes the loss totally reasonably and calmly. HAHAHA yeah, no, the opposite.
The Story:
6/8
[When Dipper first wakes up and sees that all of Mabel's stuff is gone, his first thought is that she's playing some kind of weird joke on him. It's a little crueler than he'd expect from her, but really, if your sister can't be cruel to you sometimes, who can be? He rolls his eyes.]
Very funny, Mabel. Come on out. [After all, her playing a mean trick on him is a lot less upsetting than the other possibility. That her stuff is gone because she is. Dipper's read enough that he knows what to look for. Missing stuff. Missing person. Not coming back any time soon.]
Mabel?
[He looks in the closet, under his bed, everywhere. Then he starts getting nervous, but he still doesn't want to admit it. He doesn't want to believe that his sister could be taken from him just like that. He rushes from his room.]
MABEL!
[For the rest of the day he can be found tearing his way through the mansion, searching everywhere. He knows, logically, how all the pieces fit together. He's always been smart. Good at puzzles. And this is an easy one. An easy puzzle that he refuses to accept the solution in front of him. There has to be more to it. She can't just be gone.
Evening finds him on the edge of the forest, a bag full of provisions on his back. There's only one place he hasn't looked. And he's not giving up. No matter what people have told him.]
6/9 - 6/11
[Mabel is gone.
Dipper had to admit it eventually. And thankfully he admitted it before going in the forest. But admitting it isn't the same as accepting it. In the days that follow, Dipper won't be approaching people with his usual cheer. He eats meals with his nose buried in a book, either his Journal or something he's taken from the library, something, anything, that might be useful.
He isn't sleeping much. His half empty room hurts too much. He could change it, make it just his room, but that would feel too much like giving up, and he won't do that.
So instead he spends his nights down in the caves, holding a flashlight and reading. Journal 3 might not have an answer for how to travel between different worlds, but surely somewhere in all the books on Wonderland he can find some answer.
This just can't be it.]

[Dipper clenches and unclenches his fists, frustrated. He knows that there was nothing he could have done. But he's never been satisfied with being helpless, swept along by the whims of fate. He likes being able to change things. Even if that means going into the past and actively doing things differently. Nothing is worse than not having a solution. He's smart. Smarter than pretty much anyone. Usually he can figure out lots of stuff no one else can get. Why did this of all things have to be different?]
no subject
The more Wirt listens to Dipper, the more it seems that's...not really the case for him. Maybe he misread things, a little.]
Um, well...it's not like you have to stop trying to figure things out now that she's gone? You couldn't keep her from leaving but...I-I dunno, maybe you can figure out how to leave? You don't exactly have a time limit here - she could always come back and then you'd be like, a Wonderland expert by then.
no subject
He misses his sister.]
I just have to find the pattern. [He looks up at Wirt.] I bet there are answers on the other side of the Mirror. Have you ever been there?
no subject
No. Back when I first got here something happened over there though? Everyone said the Jabberwocky attacked, and I guess some people went to go fight it.
no subject
[What doesn't around here?]
no subject
[Instead of jumping through the rabbit hole to go join the fight, which a lot of Real Things did during that event.]
no subject
And then he thinks about... every other conversation he's had with Wirt and drops his hand.]
...yeah, that sounds about like what you would do.
no subject
What? I'm pretty sure it's not unreasonable to not want to get eaten by a giant monster. That's definitely not worth it.
[Which is a valid point, except that Wirt probably wouldn't have done it even if there wasn't a giant monster at the time.]
no subject
[But then he breaks off because it won't be him and Mabel, it'll just be him. And exploring the Mirror side just won't be as fun without his sister.]
no subject
...Maybe she'll be back before a chance like that comes up.
no subject
no subject
...So, it's only called not taking a risk when I don't want to get eaten by a monster then?
[He has kind of a sympathetic smile though. He's kidding. That was a joke, Dipper.]
no subject
no subject
...I hope you're reunited soon.
[It's not like he can say more than that, really. He can't promise Dipper that she'll come back or that she's in a place where he's protecting her already. There's no evidence of either of those things.]
