I don't know if she liked it or just wanted my attention. She stopped after the first few messages and started writing mysterious couplets. And then threatened to cut my tongue out. [He grimaces.] Pleasant girl.
Maybe he's a purple circle or octagon or something.
[Dipper snickers because making fun of Bill is a good way to pretend he isn't terrifying. And thinking about what his Mirror would be is better than thinking about the terrifying possibility that he might not have one. If he really is working with the Queen of Hearts, there's no reason he would follow the same rules the rest of them do.]
[He grins, imagining Bill with a googly eye. It's... not really less scary, just disturbing, but Mabel is trying to help.]
The good news is, we don't have to worry about them until we cross over to the mirror side, and even then, it won't be us dealing with them. You can't meet your own mirror. You just switch places.
So we should figure out a plan if one of us ever gets switched without the other knowing. I mean they're creepy and they look just like us, right? They could probably fool us.
They don't seem all that much like us, but it's better to be safe than sorry. [He frowns, then snaps his fingers.] Oh! The Notebooks! We'll get James to give you one. That way we can let each other know right away.
It's-- well, I can't actually show you because it's super top secret and there are curses on it if I do, but I can get you one. There's this--[He pauses and turns up the music a little louder. Just in case.] A resistance. People who are working to find a way out of here. And they have these magic notebooks which are pretty much the only way to communicate and be sure the mirrors won't eavesdrop. James'll give you one if I ask him to.
[Because she's his sister and she's going to know everything dipper knows either way.]
it's cool, though. You write in it and everyone who has one can see it.
There really are. I love it. [It's like Gravity Falls, only better, even though it's missing a lot of things that make Gravity Falls so great. Like Stan and Soos and Grenda and Candy. But she still lives in hope they'll show up here too.]
Yeah, me too. [Now that Mabel's back, at least. He sure didn't love it for that stretch when she was missing.] All I have to do is figure out how to come and go at will and it'll be perfect.
Right? It'd be great. [There have been plenty of times Dipper wished he had more time in the day/week/month. Now he could have all the time he wanted always.]

[she taps her chin.] And maybe a monocle, but if he only has one eye, would it be a monocle or would it just be glasses?

Guess this place isn't so different from Gravity Falls, after all. Except everyone knows things are weird.
