Okay, my family and I am Escape Room enthusiasts and have currently done 200 Escape Rooms around the world and now I am just imagining Dipper and Bill going through some of the less fun experiences XD
Dipper is working hard to solve a puzzle while Bill riles him up from within the room the demon has locked himself inside.
This puzzle took a moment for Dipper to put all the pieces together, but he finally got the final hints needed and now the answer is absolutely clear to him.
From inside his room, Bill is laughing tauntely, shaking his head at Dipper getting something so simple wrong.
Dipper can feel his annoyance rise, but it is still clearly within the horny zone. He checks the puzzle again.
Hmm, same answer? Maybe he put it in wrong?
Is there a certain order he has to add the solution? He looks over all the hints, but nothing stands out to him. He still tries to add the solution in different orders.
After 6 or 7 attempts and no reaction, the annoyance is moving dangerously close to the horny-line. Clearly something isn't right here.
Bill has been taunting him all the while, bragging about just how clever a demon like him is compared to a feeble human (sexy talk), when Dipper interrupts him.
"Is the solution [this]?"
"Ha, Pinetree, you think I will just give you the answer that easily? If you think you got it, just try it and see if-"
"No, I am asking you if this thing is broken. Is the solution [this]? Nothing happens when I try it"
Bill hesitates. Asks Dipper to turn the puzzle towards the mirror to his room so he can see. Dipper does and he checks the answer.
He asks Dipper to pull at the puzzle. Dipper does and it is like it is nailed shut. Bill urges Dipper to pull harder.
When nothing continues to happen, Bill curses and kicks open the door to his room to go solve the puzzle himself. He changes the solution back and forth just to make sure he places everything correctly.
When nothing happens, Bill himself begins to check the hints to the puzzle to make sure he got it right. At this point Dipper has sat down, back against the wall to Bills room, head in his hands as he waits.
After way too long and mood properly ruined, Bill finally give up and turns to Dipper with a smirk and a suggestion that they take things elsewhere. By this point Dipper has already closed the door to Bills room, effective locked himself inside until his stupid demon repairs his stupid puzzle.
The next time they do this, Bill has triple checked every single puzzle beforehand.
Beautiful, amazing, I salute you anon! Both for your expertise and insight, and for this lovely scene.
