Alice registers as a name that Ford is passingly familiar with - probably from Dipper reporting back about his haunted house adventures.
Mabel's question is unsubtle and leading, but fortunately even Ford could have gotten it without that much. He grins at Mabel's question and digs into his pocket, withdrawing another talisman. It's a plain stripe of journal paper inscribed with Darkblood ink, though not in any sort of coherent language. He reaches 'up' to pass the talisman to Mabel.
"Just rip it in half and get ready to flip over, though it should reverse slowly enough to not be an issue."
As for the change in Mabel's habits, it's the sort of thing Ford has noticed without being consciously aware of it - but he doesn't seem taken aback that Mabel is interested in his work, just pleased to be able to share.
