Miss, are you alright? Have you been injured?

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

We've never been told. There's theories--one is that our emotions power the clock. That's the ticking you're probably hearing.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Yes. It is constant.

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

Yeah. It gets quieter if you're with someone else, for some reason.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Strange.

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

Very. But it's almost normal for the City.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

It is only ticking.

I am sure it is not difficult to become accustomed to it.

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

I guess. Probably depends on the person.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Does it bother you?

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

The ticking? Yeah, but it probably bothers me for different reasons than other people.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Ah. Why is that?

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

It reminds me of something from my world.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Of clocks?

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

A particular watch.

[voice]

[notaweapon]

Purchase a new one.

[voice]

[tenmorehours]

[chuckles] No, it wasn't mine. Not really.
