IC Perspective: Dipper Pines (second year)

Character: Dipper Pines
Mun: Takato
Plot related: not really (backdated to the event)


Soooooo I guess it goes without saying that there's weird things happening around the school again. Well, I mean it is a magic school so I guess I'm stating the obvious here.

This is like last year.

Um...if anyone sees multiple mes around, could you direct them to the library? I'm looking up spells that could've caused this and the more hands the better it'll be.

I think.

I just wanted extra help with my homework. I wasn't expecting this to happen!

[brokethecycle]

Oh boy. How many Dippers should I be looking for?

[mysterytwin]

...I lost count at 14.

They all have numbers on their hats though! I used the same system I did last year.

[brokethecycle]

...This has happened before?

[mysterytwin]

Um...

Yes?

[brokethecycle]

[SIGH.]

I'll try to find them. They're ...just copies of you, right? They act like you and everything?

[mysterytwin]

Kiiiiiiiind of? They're more like...different parts of my personality or something I guess.

[brokethecycle]

Huh. Okay. I'll do my best.

Um- Which might not be a whole lot...

[right, he hasn't told Dipper what the castle did to him.]

[mysterytwin]

...Wait, don't tell me something happened to you too.

[brokethecycle]

About that...

[mysterytwin]

Oh jeez...what happened?

[brokethecycle]

I um.



I'm kind of a ghost.

[mysterytwin]

Wait, what?

You mean, like, spectral-y and stuff?

[brokethecycle]

Yeah.

[mysterytwin]

Oh my god.

[brokethecycle]

I don't think I actually died!

I can't find my body anywhere!

I'm just ...a ghost, I guess.

[mysterytwin]

Oh...well that's...good?

I'm not sure what to say right now.

[brokethecycle]

Its okay. I'll ...float around and try to spot your clones.

[mysterytwin]

And I'll continue to look through the spell books in the library. Both for me and you now.

I'm up to Standard Book of Spells Grade 5 and nothing.

[brokethecycle]

It sounds to me like this is something a little higher than standard.

[mysterytwin]

That's why I wanted to find my clones. I can only look through so many books at once.

[brokethecycle]

All right, I'm off then.

[And its probably a little while- he didn't find all of them, but he's got a line of about five Dippers trailing after him into the library. He glides in, looking around for Alpha Dipper.]

[mysterytwin]

[By the time Norman floats into the library, Dipper is already partially buried under a pile of books, ranging from thick old times to newer books. His face is currently buried in a book titled Curses and the Effects They Bear.]

[brokethecycle]

[Not surprising. Norman gives a fond eyeroll before he floats a little above him. He checks behind him to make sure none of the other Dippers have wandered off again.]

I didn't find them all but...

*tomes. goddamnit spellcheck

[mysterytwin]

[Dipper looks up when he hears Norman speak, about to respond before he lets put a small, girlish squeal, book dropping from his hands to the table. After a moment of remembering that his friend was somehow a ghost now, he gave a small sigh, scratching the back of his head.]

Sorry about that. I kind of forgot you were...y'know.
