[dipper's eyes are wide throughout all of jay's explanation, and then slowly his expression turns into what can definitely be described as "the full yikes". he's cringing because-- first, wow, trusting strangers who can possibly betray him. second, being personable. third, that sucks? this sucks.
it takes him nearly half a minute after jay speaks to just... sigh and droop and PUT ON A BRAVE FACE]
Being personable and analytical, huh. Good thing I've got Mabel.
