Day 1 Morning

[photonement]

[Somebody made sure to get up bright and early this morning and is waiting outside the hamster dorm. There's not enough sunlight to gleam on her Mary Janes.]

Good morning, Dipper! How are you doing? Ready for breakfast yet?

[Her voice is bright. Too bright, as she works harder than before to curl her lips around the phonemes of his English name. She's self-conscious about whether people will see them together, or if she's somehow misunderstood the rules and he'll think she's crazy.]

...I wasn't going to lead a witch hunt or anything, I just want to make sure Mabel'll be safe. [He twiddles his thumbs a little, awkwardly.]

He wouldn't go after her if he had to kill someone, would he? I mean she's cute and seems like an easy target........ [Just thinking about it makes his insides feel all twisted up..]

[photonement]

Chivalry is the name of the yakuza's game. Literally, ninkyo's another name for 'em. So... they'd go for conversion at least; I think they know it wouldn't look good... unless she had a special role.

[Looking at Dipper resisting the urge to outright ask but the question's written on her eyebrows]

[terci]

I don't know if she has a special role or not, but I don't think she'd let anyone else know about it besides maybe me. [She's silly but at least she has some common sense.]

[photonement]

Good! That's the safest way to go about things. Little by little you get a whole chain of people who can rely on each other.

[terci]

[He nods.]

Hopefully no one will get any ideas about targeting her, with or without knowing her role.
