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 is not very strong. This summer has been good for Dipper, partly because his life (or Mabel's) has been in danger so often. He's capable of throwing a punch, though Mabel's still the physically stronger twin. Dipper prefers to fight smart. Dipper prefers to do everything smart.
Dipper is not very smart when he's this mad.
Being sworn at makes his stomach curl up uncomfortably. He's still young enough and sheltered enough that he never gets sworn around. But it's the other words, calling him selfish when he does everything for Mabel, saying she'd be better off without him around when having her gone feels like having an arm cut off.
In this moment, he isn't smart. He isn't eloquent. He still isn't very strong, but that doesn't stop himself from launching himself at Tommy with all the power his fury can grant his noodly arms and trying to punch the other kid.]
You don't know anything you... you... asshole!
[The swear feels strange in his mouth, but he's too angry to care, or to think about how his voice is cracking or whether his vision is blurring with rage or with tears. He's never wanted to drag Mabel through hell. But when she was here, it was an adventure that they were running into headfirst, together, because it was fun. With her gone, it does feel like hell. And that's the whole problem. They're a pair. Being apart from each other is just wrong.]

Somewhere, Bill is watching, and a single proud tear escapes his single eye.]
no subject
But he is smart enough to know when he has screwed up.
And he is pretty sure he just screwed up.
The feeling is only cemented by the fact that he can pick Dipper up by the back of his shirt and hold him at arms length, letting the small fists wail on what they can reach. Shit, this boy is tiny. Like, has he even hit puberty yet? Damn it, he just cussed out a little kid.
The anger disappeared as quickly as it came, leaving him to try and figure out how to fix the mess he had just made. ]
Shit. Yeah, okay, you're not wrong. I'm a jerk.
no subject
Let me go!
[It just makes him feel even more helpless, another way he's failing Mabel. He should be able to figure this out. Make it so that the two of them can come and go at will. And he can't even hit the guy who's badmouthing their relationship.]
no subject
So you can headbutt me in the balls or something? No. I'm not that apologetic.
[ Oh. Right. Apologetic means he should actually apologize. ]
... I didn't really mean what I said.
[ He had just been angry, and reacted by trying to hurt Dipper. Which had worked a little too well. ]
no subject
You've never even met her. You don't know what she'd want or what's best for her.
[Mabel would want to be with Dipper, whether here or in Gravity Falls or who knows where else. If they were together, they could take on anything. Alone, they were just... half a pair.]
no subject
So maybe Tommy is not so good at apologizing. ]
No, I don't. But since you're a twin, you should know that telling someone they're a crappy twin is hitting below the belt.
[ In his mind, he had just hit back. ...significantly harder. ]
no subject
[Dipper scowls and makes a grab for his vest. He's not going to apologize. He's still mad. He's going to stay mad until Mabel gets back, probably. Also, he's not convinced this guy is a good person, let alone a good twin.]
And give me back my vest!
no subject
[ Nuh-uh, he is not giving it back that easy, not if this kid is going to keep being an ass to him. ]
Which is why I was trying to help you! But instead you're just being a total jerk.
[ You know what? Maybe he will give it back. Dumped straight on his head. ]
I'll tell your sister you're looking for her if I see her.
no subject
I don't need your help. I'll find her myself!
[And with that he storms off in the opposite direction.]
