I don't hear the ticking. I don't think there's anything new I can say about that.

I'm going out for a bit. Groceries, for the most part. And then I'm going to try to make cake from scratch, so wish me luck.

I don't think a lot of people hear the ticking. It's kind of... you know, concerning.

[unhexed]

It is. I doubt the clock is simply broken, for that matter, since all the other timepieces have malfunctioned.

I feel like people are more worried about their own clocks rather than making sure the big one is still moving and all their home worlds are still, you know, there.

[adamantined]

Need help picking out cake ingredients?

[alittlecredit]

The ticking stopped?

If I wish you good luck and it works, can I have a piece?

[unhexed]

Yes. So did all of the other clocks, as far as I know.

Of course. Do you want me to bring it by, or will you come here?

[alittlecredit]

See, if I'd set my alarm clocks this morning, I might have noticed something like that.

I can come over. You're the one doing all the work.

[unhexed]

All right, then. I'll let you know when it's ready. How've you been, otherwise?

She's never without her fiance/key/axe, so she never heard it

[sulky_skullkey]

It stopped...? Huh....

Mm, cake is... Enjoyable to make...

[unhexed]

It did.

I'm certainly enjoying the process! It's a good way to keep oneself occupied.

[sulky_skullkey]

How strange...

Yeah... I've been learning to cook new things s-since I arrived, it's been very interesting...

[unhexed]

What sort of things?

[unhexed]

Oh? All right. Do you want me to save you any cake? At least I'll have most people in one or two places.

The ticking sound was annoying, but if it really is the clock that counts down to the end of all worlds, I think I'd rather hear it than not.

[unhexed]

Unfortunately, the clock looks dead for the time being. It's not just silent, it's not moving.

[morethanasuit]

Yes. which is a bit worrisome.
