No, I think I'd know if my twin sister had some weird, abnormal power or something.

And, uh... [It was honestly kind of really surprising, and left Dipper feeling scared and uncomfortable. And the thought that it was a memory...]

Well, there was a lot of... [Should he even bring up something so gruesome?]


... Blood.

[psycholawgy]

[ Well, she's a lawyer so she's seen scene of the crimes with blood splatters and whatnot.

She cocks her head to the side, but the mention of blood makes her tense, and Dipper can see it as her shoulder stiffen. ]

Was there a body?

[terci]

Yes... and no. I-it was kind of a blur, and I don't remember everything that happened. [Seeing her tense makes him feel all the more guilty for bringing this up, but.. it's probably something she needs to know, right?]

But- but I remember you being pretty young while it happened? Like maybe around my age?

[psycholawgy]

Oh no...

[ Looks like she already knows. ]

Was there a man in a mask?

[terci]

Man in a mask? [He thinks for a moment, before shaking his head.]

I don't remember seeing anyone like that. But I did see a guy with black hair? I think he was being convicted for... murder, and you tried standing up for him.

[psycholawgy]

... You didn't see the real thing.

[ That just makes her really sad, and her necklace turns into a deep blue colour. ]

I see.

[terci]

Real thing...? [That's a little.. strange. Both her words and her necklace changing color like that.]

...what really happened?

[psycholawgy]

There was someone who killed my mom. A guy wearing a Noh mask.

... But I couldn't remember things properly. What you saw was the memory buried in my unconscious, and not the truth.
