[After taking care of checking in on her two fellow Sailor Senshi, taking at least six lengthy showers to wash out the goop, Rei starts making the rounds, calling people up.
There's a sizable list, but there's one name in particular that stands out. Because she feels it now. The mental connection she'd had to Mabel is gone. And that can only mean one thing...]
Dipper-kun, can you please call me back as soon as you are able? I want to check in on you.

[ Of the sizable list of people Yu decides to check in on, Dipper is the very first. ]

[Jack is a spirit with a mission: to bring fun to anyone bored out there. And who can be having a worst time than people stuck studying? They need to get out and see the sun!
And he has the perfect method for that: pulling the fire alarm. Old fashioned? Perhaps, but he adds his own twist - a slippery floor. He covers it entirely with frost, so when the alarm finally rings, the obvious thing happens...
People falling on their butts is always fun, right?
If there's anyone smart enough no to panic, they'll notice a white haired boy perching on top of a bookcase, laughing his ass off at the messy scene he's created. Man, he's just that good.]

Hey, Dipper. How are you doing?

[Hi, Dipper. Guess who's finding things to be suspicious and is being huffy about it.]

Dipper! [Hear that? It's the sound of an excited, borderline-manic (and probably sleep-deprived) Hiro who's talking over the sound of a small drill in the background.] Dude, you've gotta--where are you? Are you busy? Tell me you're not busy right now.
[The end of prom had been kind of draining and left him with a lot to think about. However, when he woke up the next morning he realized he wasn't really in the mood to think about it. That's the case still even the day after the day after and it's for that reason something Very Important occurs to him.]
How'd the rest of your prom night go anyway?

Yu will be in the kitchen making breakfast. Once Yu sees that Dipper is awake, he'll hail his friend over. ]
Morning, Dipper. You didn't happen to see a post that went up pretty late last night, did you?

Hey, kid.
[ when's the last time you heard someone call you kid, dipper?? this is happening. ]
I need your opinion on something. You're... young, right?
[ this is safe. ]

[ The night of the 21st felt long and quiet. The ambient noises drifting in through Yu’s open window were strangely calming. They weren’t the sounds of Inaba, which he constantly found himself missing. They were a lot more similar to the sounds of Tokyo. He supposed sometimes he should have found them nostalgic, or familiar, but instead they just felt foreign. Alien. As alien as they really were. But still, they were enough to lull at least some of the tension from his aching, tired shoulders.
It had been a long day. It had been a long few days, really, as things progressively went off the rails. From Rise, to Kaz, to Hiro, to Dipper, and everything with the masks in-between, as he tried to handle the investigation and all of his friends besides, making sure they were all alright, trying to discover the truth behind everything, and still coming up short…
He’s running on very little sleep, having been up since 4 AM. He’s already in pajamas, thinking of just giving up early on his day as he putters around his room, when his CereVice gives a ping. It’s a notification. Not one from a text or an incoming call.
Yu’s head snaps up. That’s a notification from the app Tadashi sent him just a few days ago.
In his haste to snatch his device up he knocks over his desk chair. He can’t even bring himself to wince over the crash. The name he sees makes his heart stop, and a shout tears from him before he can think to stop it. ]
No!
[ Rise and Dipper will hear. They’ll worry. His legs are moving before he can make himself acknowledge the reasonable thought, and he’s tearing out of his room, in front of his best friend’s door. ]
Yosuke…!
[ But there’s a helplessness to his voice. He knows Yosuke was in there earlier. He knows. And unless his partner has gained powers of teleportation…
Yu doesn’t knock. He opens the door.
There’s no one in the room.
Letting his CereVice drop from suddenly dumb fingers, Yu braces his hands on both sides of the doorframe and breathes out low and slow and a little shaky, bowing his head. He says and does nothing more, simply standing there, completely out of words to say. ]

[ as promised, the next step after figuring out that someone else is going through the same... weird consequences dipper is it to let him know after things have winded down. unfortunately, he's kind of also heard the reasons behind the glitching.
... it's a little awkward and sad knowing that someone so young who you don't know at all has died, so adrien's not sure if he should mention it. he gets that the situation must be jarring and he wants to help, but at the same time... what exactly could he do? ]
Hey, Dipper. It's Adrien, from the... tree.
I said I'd let you know if I met someone else with the phasing through stuff, and I did. This is... me letting you know?
[ .... ]
So, you're not the only one.
Are you okay?

You on your way home?
[ Just ... checking in. It's been some time since his talk with Hiro, and while he trusts Dipper to take care of himself, he does want to make sure his friend is coming home soon. It's getting late. ]

[The four pings on the app Tadashi created happen in tandem. One after the other after the other after the other. He doesn't look at it immediately, finishing the step in whatever he'd been working on before looking at his device to check the notifications.
He wishes he'd checked sooner.
It takes him a little while to gather the courage to text Dipper. He'd been staring at the device hoping the names would pop back on, but there's no such luck. So instead, he shoots his friend a text.]
Hey.
[That's all it says. Just a small message to see where Dipper's at and to see if Dipper already knows.]

[It doesn't take long after his conversation with Mabel to understand that his sinking suspicions are right. Dipper, like some of their other friends, must have gone someone similar too but unlike Hiro he didn't make it out alive (just like some of their other friends.) It's...scary, isn't it? Realizing just how mortal they really are.
And just like that, it's scarier to think that Dipper and Tadashi now share one thing in common. They've both died on him twice, both in similar fashions both times, and both out of his sight.
Funny, isn't it?
So he knows Dipper won't be responding to his texts. That matters very little and he texts away.]
Hey...you're not gonna believe what we found. It's pretty crazy.

[It’d been three days by her CEREVice’s clock since the incident. It wasn’t something Rei was particularly upset about, all things considered. What had happened was just something that had happened, and it was her fault for not weaving tighter defenses, really. It was not a pleasant feeling, knowing that she’d been gone, but it was less the actual cessation itself and more the ripple effect it would have on the people who knew her. She’d always been the strong one, someone that the colonists could rely on and take comfort in. Now she wasn’t sure how they’d react. Could she be that person, or would their viewpoint change when they learned what happened? Hopefully not.
Like always though, she isn’t going to do things by half measures. So once she’s changed into comfortable shoes she heads out to see friends and compatriots, arriving with just a simple text to let them know she’s on her way.
Dipper Pines was another stop, the text requesting that he meet her at their usual ice-cream parlor. It’s important she says, and when he does show up (if he does), then he’ll find her sitting at one of the outside tables with a gigantic bowl of vanilla ice cream covered in pistachios. Because look, even magical girls overindulge sometimes.]
Dipper. I’m sorry to call you out here but…it is important. [She offers a slip of paper to him, a gift card for one cone however he wants it.] Go get yourself something, and let’s talk.

[Because if you think he has either the will or power to face the so-called team immediately after having air in lungs again, you're sorely mistaken.
So sure, he'd visited the oldest man in their group. Learned his name. Learned maybe a couple of other things, and that'd been on the day of Neji's own resurrection. But gods, he swore he would not be so hasty to get in contact with the rest of the motley crew. Still, Neji Hyuga did know that he must and despite the weight of dread of facing yet another unknown, it's only a handful of days later that he slips from his apartment yet again to track down whoever must be next. And it so happened to be who he figures is the youngest boy, his face and likeness still entirely too easy to recall.
Neji's a ninja, and an elite. It doesn't take that long to find and track the boy.
It does take a little longer to convince himself that this was somehow the right thing to do. But he'd already done that. All that's left is the actual-- approach. Fuck. Ninjas knew stealth for the sake of quick kills not
and if he could quit thinking of death and dying and killing, for a minute, Neji figures that'd be great.
Wherever Dipper finds himself this afternoon, Neji will suddenly be by his side- though a respectable (ha) distance off. Alright, well, no use dawdling-] What's your name? [If that could have come out a little less sharp? Also would have great.]

[Phoenix leaves a message soon after returning from his own trip and talking with Mabel.]
Dipper! Dipper, are you there?
They might have taken you too. Wherever you are... just stay safe and let me know when you get this message. Your sister's worrying about you. [There will also be some attempts at texts to check in on Dipper sent over the next few days.]

[Sometime at night, Mabel got a little bored and decided to spend the rest of her night drawing away! As she got out a couple of crayons, she thought it would be a wonderful idea to draw herself as a princess! With a bright yellow crown on top of her head, she could be seen holding hands with a certain knight!
Believing that nobody was around, she started giggling to herself. The more she drew, the more details she added in the background! There was a castle, a garden, and even a pretty horse (Not unicorn!!) too!
Oh if only such a dream were to come true! But alas, it simply just wasn't met to be! ..That and she couldn't stop giggling at this point.]
