Hey, you've reached Dipper Pines! I can't talk right now, but leave any questions and information after the beep and I'll get back to you. Hopefully.

Even with a team you shouldn't fight the military. No matter how big your head monster is.

[amadaman]

I'm not just going to leave it to other people to get you back. But I can't get you back if I'm gone.

I'm getting you back. And we're getting home. And Mabel will be with us.

[ursawhiner]

This is really crazy, okay! Super scary stuff!

Just... be careful.

[Then Ken loses focus for just a moment so instead of being able to collect his thoughts into a text, his voice blurts out the first thing that comes to his head]

Nothing's scarier than not doing anything when I might lose you.

[ursawhiner]

My brain wouldn't be itchy if you hadn't said something!

There's only ever one guard that we can see, but they rotate. They don't really let us see into the hallway or whatever.

I didn't speak to the AI myself. Seemed like a bad idea to draw attention to myself.

[ursawhiner]

[Dipper's silent for a long moment, surprised by Ken's honesty.]

...We're fine. For now. I don't want you to get hurt rescuing me okay?

[glitterateur]

you can't blame me for everything your brain does!!!



except we totally have twin telepathy now so I guess you kind of can??

That may be wise. Pay attention to anything you overhear. What it says to others can be just as valuable.

Observation is your most powerful tool here, Dipper. Be vigilant. Look for anything unusual. We're doing what we can, but we need your eyes and ears.

[ursawhiner]

I'm trying to make you itchy.

Is it working.

[ursawhiner]

I'll do my best. It's not like there's really much else to do in here.

Let me try something...

[Dipper concentrates for a moment, and a wavering image of a large, bare metal room appears. There's a crowd of fifty or so imPorts milling around and far off there's a lone guard standing sentry by the door.]

[amadaman]

[...]

I can't promise that I won't take risks. I can't promise that I won't, because there's something I have to do.

But I promise, when you get back home, I'll be with you. I can heal my injuries, but there's no replacing you.

[Dipper gets something better and more meaningful than a single pig valentine-- he gets all three valentines, plus a big ol' sign stuck on a pile of clean laundry that says THIS IS CLEAN, WEAR IT!!!!!!!!!!! TODAY!!!!!!!

And of course a little thing of heart candy with the note: For the best brother ever.]

[amadaman]

Dipper. Dip. Are you free on Sunday?

audio;

[ursawhiner]

[Dipper has been determinedly ignoring Valentine's Day, and thus doesn't immediately realise the significance of Sunday.]

Sure. I guess I can clear my schedule for you.

[amadaman]

... What sort of response is that.

You guess you can clear February fourteenth for me?

[ursawhiner]

[ABORT ABORT.]

Uh! I mean! For you every day is free?

--Sorry. I didn't realise what day it was.

[amadaman]

Oh, I don't know... I was thinking about making some plans, but maybe you're too busy.

[Can nothing go right. Ken lets the silence sit briefly.]



But anyway, it's okay. I had to get reminded a few times too. Do you want to go to that new dinosaur exhibit at that one museum in De Chima?

[ursawhiner]

[Dipper lets out a sigh of relief when Ken apparently forgives him for being the worst boyfriend ever.]

Yeah, that sounds awesome. I've been wanting to go to that, actually.

[amadaman]

Okay. I'm glad. I thought you'd like that one -- there was a bunch, but--

[He spend hours lying in Minato's room on his laptop doing research. He's glad he chose the right one.]

So, um. Sunday. Whatever time you want.

[ursawhiner]

Do you want to grab lunch first? That way we can spend as long in the museum as we want.

[amadaman]

Yeah, I'd like that. I'll come get you at your house -- we can walk. Eleven, maybe?

[ursawhiner]

Sounds like a plan.

Sorry again for forgetting. I've been mostly trying to ignore Valentine's Day stuff.

[amadaman]

Ah, it's okay. Like I said, I had to be reminded, too. Is there something wrong?
