When the words weigh heavy on the heart
Who: Dipper and CR
What: Dipper is back from the dead! Everything sucks
When: mid-to-late December
Where: Mostly around the Pines House.
Content Warnings: post-death trauma, possession, PTSD, mentions of child death
Revival [CLOSED TO PINES FAMILY]
Death this time around, is so starkly different, that any of it hardly feels real. In fact, it's just one long disjointed nightmare until consciousness is finally able to grab him from the void.
He remembers very little for a long time, just bits and pieces here and there. He remembers the words he spoke before it all went black and the subsequent glimpses afterwards. His sister screaming at him, mingled in with flashes of Oscar's face, followed by bursts of searing pain and red. He thinks he can pinpoint the moment it all ends; when the sound, the images, all of it just goes dead silent, and he's basked in nothing but inky darkness, letting the nightmare fade away into nothing. It feels floaty, like he's bobbing about in an endless ocean.
Awareness jolts through him a moment later. The ocean is no longer endless, it's actually very small and cramped. He's got to get out, and that is how he finds himself writhing on the ground of the living-room, a mass of awkward teen boy and tentacles. It then that the weight of the entire past two months really hit him, with the sudden, suffocating feeling of clarity that comes with waking up from the dead.
Visitation: Winter Mourning [OPEN]
Dipper's first day alive was kind of a mess. Turns out, dying violently and then reviving out of a squid tank sort of scrambles your brain and motor-functions. He's doing much better by the second day, though he's opted to stay in bed for the most part. While he does have a great deal of his journals and notes out, it's probably pretty telling that he has just spent most of the time watching TV on his Omni.
He will not turn down company, of course. Especially since he knows he's given people a fright when everything spectacularly blew up in his face. Just mind the ...remarkable amount of Winter Mourning ornaments laying around the place. Mabel has been coping in the way she knows how, which is to say, their bedroom is covered in bones and glitter.
Winter Mourning Options
Canon Flavored:
- Dipper fist-fighting a giant robot and winning.
- Bill Cipher, possessing Dipper's body, getting the shit kicked out of him by Mabel while on a stage full of sock puppets.
- Defeating the Shapeshifter in the bunker. (complete with horrible AND THIS IS THE LAST FACE YOU'LL EVER MAKE taunt from said Shapeshifter)
- Catching the Lumberjack Ghost
- Getting chased by a two-story-high nightmare version of Bill Cipher through the Fearamid.
Deerington Flavored:
- October, and old but fun classic.
- Fighting some bullies with Syaoran.
- The Contract with Bill
- Standing up to Bill and then dying in the portal event
- Mercy Killing Cynthia

"All right. Good. So we'll just have to make sure that next time, if you ever do this, there's a backup plan. This corruption stuff is getting way worse now, especially since this place is starting to turn the heat on how it affects us. I was silly enough to think I could avoid corruption and, well..."
Luz gestured toward her pointed ears and the fangs coming in.
"No one's immune."

But, addressing his Hero Complex is something of a work in progress.
"We need to be better about documenting signs," He points out. This was a better topic, and he opens his journal up to some early pages in November. "Because the physical stuff, I've noticed, doesn't show up first. It's the harder tells that are easy to miss, that get the ball rolling."
He gives Luz a very pointed look.
"So, why don't you sit down and talk with me about what's been going on." He says without an ounce of yield in his tone. This is not a suggestion, Luz. This is a threat.

Like Dipper though, Luz was a doer and less inclined to think at times, so she knew it wouldn't be right to criticize him too much.
She nodded, agreeing with him that it would be helpful to know what the signs of corruption were, and if there was a way to stop it before it went full on into corrupt features.
"W-what, me? Oh well. I guess it started because of the farm. I was around all of this blood, the air was practically saturated with it, you know? It was pretty rough. But the actual signs started when I was in the farm the second time. When that happened, I was actually taken and starting to get drained of blood. I don't know how long I was there, but by the time Rose found me, I was weak and barely able to move. That was when the corruption started to full swing."
