3rd Floor Boys' Bathroom, Monday Night

After he visited Alluka, Anders had gone back to his room to tidy as a way to stop him from thinking so bloody much. And, at the bottom of a pile of papers dating back to the summer before, he found the heavy gold earring he hadn't worn in ... it had to have been at least since before the spring cruise. Maybe longer.

And when he went to put the thing back in, he found his earlobe had sealed clean over. It was almost as if the hole had never been there at all.

Having a nice hoop earring and no pierced ear to wear it in was a sad state of affairs, wasn't it? Clearly it had to be remedied. The first time he'd pierced it, an older girl in the Circle dorms held the needle. This time ... he didn't know who to ask. He suspected his friends would tell him to go get it done in some shop, which seemed vaguely excessive. So he took the supplies as he remembered them -- rubbing alcohol, needle, and block of ice -- to the boys' restroom and set up to quickly put a new hole in his head.

He had forgotten that the first time he'd had it done, they'd used whiskey instead of rubbing alcohol, and he'd been fortified by three or four generous pours before the needle touched his flesh. This time, he was sober as a stone. Anyone walking past the boys' bathroom tonight would get quite the education in rude comments that could be made about the Bride of the Maker, her underthings, and her personal proclivities.

[OOC: IDEK, man. I thought of this and it made me giggle so I posted it. Open, though.]

Dipper let out a little sigh. "My sister and I fell down a hole which brought us here," he explained. "I was a little freaked out when we found the school and learned we were already enrolled. How would anyone know we would fall down a hole and end up on an island in an interdimensional nexus?"

It also should be noted that Dipper seemed more freaked out about already being enrolled in school than falling through a dimensional portal.

Gravity Falls was a weird place.

"I guess," Dipper said running his hands through his hair with a sigh. "I just don't like the idea of my future being out of my control. Plus it's a mystery so part of me just wants to dig in and figure out how this happens."
