Yeah. Something like that. Like my brain hiccuped.

Can you stop it? Like use determination to make it not happen?

[Or recognize it happening and change your own plans?]

Yeah, that's it. They set you back. It was easier to keep track before there were two of us.

Honestly, I don't know. I've only managed to SAVE over them once. I don't know how it works in other worlds. If you can keep track of when that feeling happens, maybe then you'll have a better chance?

And don't mention this to Chara. If they know you know about it, they might try to set you back, or worse.

Believe me, I'm not telling them anything.

[Especially since them not knowing he knows could come in really handy.]

So what are they? It's pretty clear they're not your twin.

[determinedest]

...I don't know.

[Maybe at one point they did, or might have, but it's hard to say now.]

They were human once, I think? Now they call themselves a demon, but I don't know if that's true either. They came to the Underground before I did. They were dead by the time I fell.

I've met demons. They weren't like that.

Are they still dead, then?

[determinedest]

I don't think so. Determination can help someone persist after death.

But I don't know what they are now. We used to kind of share a certain insight.

[Along with...certain bodies.]

Like a ghost.

Would you help us? I don't want to hurt them but I really don't want them to hurt Max. But I can't do anything if they'll just undo anything I do.

[determinedest]

[They waver for a long time, uncertain. But ultimately, there's really only one choice here, isn't there?

*Will you help?

-No.            >Yes.]

I'll help. I don't want to hurt them either, but I don't want to see anyone else go the same way.

I don't think they can set things back if I'm there.

[That little hypothesis is...untested. Maybe it's time to test it.]

Cool, thanks.

Hey, maybe we'll be lucky and they won't do anything.

[Dipper just... isn't going to count on it.]

[determinedest]

Maybe.

[If ever a complete lack of conviction could be conveyed purely over text.]
