[Dipper looks away from her as she speaks, staring at his knees with cold indifference.
You're not that bad of a person, Dipper.]
Would I be bad if I told you I've contemplated murder, on many occasions?
[He whispers, pulling his legs a bit closer to the edge of the bed. Of course he'd outwardly threatened the lives of Gideon, Pacifica, and both of their respective families before, but he'd never actually acted on his threats. It was hard to ever tell if they were empty or not, since he had never actually killed someone before.
..Well, he almost killed Gideon that day. He probably would have too if the boy hadn't figured out how to use the amulet at the last possible moment. If he had been a second later, the knife would have plunged deep into his heart, more than likely killing him instantly. If asked outright, "Would you kill him, given the chance?", he would probably give a definitive answer of yes. Absolutely. Anything to rid himself of that thorn in his side for good.
Or would he? Murder was the one thing Dipper always threatened but never seemed to do. Kidnap? Yes. Torture? No problem.
.....But murder?
His head bows slightly, his eyes drifting shut.]
It's a miracle that I haven't tried to kill you yet, Pacifica. ...And yet you still keep coming back. Checking on me. ...as if....as if I'm worth the effort.
...and I...I can't really decide if you're incredibly stupid...
