*He makes a slight noncommittal noise when he's asked the question, but doesn't respond otherwise. A door in his head creaks open to reveal a reel of him wiping his own memories but it's brief and very fragmented. He's unable to respond consciously, though.*

HI THERE! BIG-ME SAID TO HELP YOU GET YOUR LOST MEMORIES BACK! DO YOU MIND IF I POP IN AND HELP OUT IN THERE? (-|

--- BILLY BILL ( @prognostictriangle )

Oh! Uh, h-hi? Good to see you? I'm, uh, not sure. If I want my memories back. If I forgot then there's probably a good reason for that. I'm, uh, not sure. Also maybe meddling in my head might hurt you? Because, uh, I might have used a memory gun? Not sure if you know but those aren't... safe.

*He swallows slightly and tries to keep very still.*

Yeah. Yeah. Just anything. Whatever you touch first. I don't care.

[cervitaur-dipper]

Trust me. It would hurt me as much as it would hurt you. And as long as you don't hurt me deliberately, I won't use it. It's probably fine. I'm just a little paranoid from time to time. I genuinely don't believe you want to hurt me, so think of it just as a little... extra security blanket. For my own peace of mind. I won't use it.

[cervitaur-dipper]

Depends. You don't want to hurt me, right? Because if you don't want to hurt me you can do it, I guess, but if I even think you want to hurt me...

*He pulls the memory gun out of his vest and enters his own name into it, leaning forward slightly.*

I won't hesitate to erase you.

What he... wanted? And a big you...

Oh. Oh no. It's him isn't it. I don't- oh no it better not be the version of you I'm thinking of. The one who- nope, nope, not thinking about that.

*He shakes his head and stamps his hoof anxiously.*

Not thinking about that. Listen, how about we do something else? Like not go into my head.

Letting Bill get close to me. Or make that deal with me when Mabel was putting on that puppet show. Or really just anything with Bill. I regret Bill.

*He takes in a deep breath and fills out the paper.*

1. Do you think life has a meaning? No. I think life is pointless and painful and nowhere near worth anything. I think that if there is a meaning, it's pain, and that's too sad to believe and it's less painful to believe that there is no meaning.

2. Do you think you are a good or bad person? Bad person. I'm not a good person. If I ever was, I'm not anymore.

3. Are you happy? How are you feeling right now? Not happy. Scared. Want to use my memory gun again. I won't, though. Scientific integrity and all.

4. What is your biggest regret? Letting Bill get anywhere near me.

5. What does "love" mean to you? Do you like love? I'm honestly not sure. I guess I think of platonic love first. Familial love. That sort of love. And I guess I just haven't thought about it in a while.

[cervitaur-dipper]

About as good as I can. With all the memory loss that's pretty good, honestly. I could be doing much worse, and I'm glad I'm better right now. I'm still scared and I still want to grab the memory gun I got from tt and wipe a few memories, but honestly? Right now I'm not bad.

[cervitaur-dipper]

Morality is relative and there is no such thing as a good or bad person. Being a "good person" is far too complex to be summarized in a yes or a no. The closest you can get is whether or not you want to hurt people. And I don't. I do not want to hurt other people for my own gain. I might hurt people. I have hurt people. If you think that hurting people makes you a bad person then I'm a bad person, but if you think it depends on context then no, I don't think I am. Really depends on how you look at it.

[cervitaur-dipper]

*He tilts his head and thinks for a second before replying.*

I think it really depends on how you choose to look at it. Personally, I don't want to assume that there's some sort of grand design for everything, because that takes all the fun out of it. If there's nothing in the world to try and discover, then there is no point. But I also believe that it can be really hard and painful to search for meaning in life, so sometimes it's just easier to pretend there's nothing.

*He shrugs.*

In the end, I subscribe to the idea that searching for meaning is, in itself, the meaning. It's just a little hard to look for meaning beyond surface level right now.

Okay, well, then ask away I guess. I don't know what it's supposed to feel like? Am I doing something wrong? I- I'm freaking out a little, sorry, haven't really had much conversation with people who aren't Bill recently and-

Great! Okay! That went better than I expected. I'll, uh, be ready then. Whenever you need me. I, uh, don't have much going on. Anyways, just call me up.

How's... how's testing so far? Any deaths or grievous illnesses? Good data or something?

projects...ooo...

soooo, dont tell anyone i told you but. Me and dipper are working on something. the truth telling teeth came out of the bottomless pit so...

thought i'd try something.

dipper's been doing some weird sciencey stuff and i've been melting things and adding glitter. we have the first prototype of Dip n' Mabe's (thats what we called our team (my idea >:3) Truth Telling Serum! if you would like to try it...let me know! we're testing it as we speak and would LOVE lab rats.

[cervitaur-dipper]

I, uh, I would like to volunteer for testing? If you'll have me, of course. Can't remember if I've ever spoken to you before but I'm more than happy to help! And if it goes bad I don't have to remember.
