--stay!

[ Is that a distorted, but may be recognizable voice? Why, yes, maybe, to those who know her. There's heavy breathing, but it distances itself from the Gear, and there's surprised sounds from a Togekiss, Typhlosion, and Gabite in the background.

Xion shakes her head. No, no, this can't be happening. Wait, she knew this place might have had a chance for something like this, but... A-Ahhghhh... She holds up hands that aren't human, gold talons moving at her will...

Fix this... Have to fix...

Swish swish swish. Clothes are being put on. Then: ]

I need... I need help. With something. Please.

[ Maybe it doesn't have to be Roxas this time. Maybe it could be Sora. Or Ven. Or anyone. ]

[ooc: 4TH WALL EVENT! GUESS WHO'S GOING TO TRY AND FIND SOMEONE TO FINISH HER? She'll be under her hood, and underneath she'll look... like this. Just maybe not gigantic. And it can be anyone. Corridors of Darkness can be convenient in traveling around, why can't Johto just allow that...

So yeah! If you're up for a fight, or just to convince this derp and stop her dead (hah) in her tracks from setting on a selfdestruction path... by all means! ]

well you just reminded me of kingdom hearts

and i figured why not

having trouble figuring out how to fake the clock anyway

[And poor Sora is sent flying into the clock tower with a SMACK. The tower remains standing, but Sora proceeds to hit the ground with another SMACK, though intact.]

[ She frowns. Hey, that's her heart daddy, and the fact that it's a doll... ]

Could you stop that?

[Should probably clarify that's not quite a doll; rather, it basically IS Sora, but limp and flexible. Somewhat hard to explain in a non-technical manner; might want to look it up.]

why

do you not want to see sora get thrown around

would roxas or donald or goofy be better

should they be subject to such things instead for my amusement

[At this point he's given up thinking of anything good for this (though that's really just because he's not actually that good at construction) and just spawns a ton of (non-functional) wall clocks to just sort of throw on the thing.]

None of them would be okay. Just stop it.

all right fine

i'll just get back to finishing this up

[He begins to place the wall clocks side by side to form the basic shape of one normal clock tower face. It manages to be even less visually appealing then the rest of the clock tower, but you take what you can get out of someone who's as relatively incompetent at this as he is.]

[ She's silent as he does this, watching. She really doesn't mind the state of it. At least he listened. At least he's doing something like this... no matter how strange of a man... person? He is.

Ah, right. ]

... Thank you.

you're welcome

always glad to show newbs how it's done

[He sets the last clock in place, the clock tower now fully assembled! However, there are still things to do. A very slapped together looking gun-like device suddenly appears in his hand, replacing the glowy device he was using before, and starts firing blue bolts at the various objects composing the clock tower. It's done in a very systematic fashion, starting with a single shot on one object followed by a shot on one adjacent to that, then another shot on that one before one adjacent to that, and so on.]

[ She watches his movements with intense curiosity, specifically at that new device in his hand. ]

What is that doing?

welding them together so it doesn't all collapse when i unfreeze it

bit of a pain with this many objects but what can you do

[After a minute or two of continuous firing, the bolts have finally hit every object from bottom to top. He fires a few more pairs of shots at the very top and very bottom of the structure, just to be sure.

The complete structure is, as expected, an eyesore. The stack of dirty dumpsters comprising the main tower, the wooden crates and rusty metal barrels forming the top, the large amount of wall clocks where there should be big, singular clock faces; it is one of a kind, but for good reason. It is only a clock tower in the loosest sense, in that it is a tower and there are clocks. It is noticeably smaller than a clock tower should be, barely reaching a height of five stories. There is no entrance, but that hardly matters considering the complete lack of anything within its "walls." Not that anything could be there in the first place; there's barely enough space for the average toddler in the base of the tower as it is. There are outcroppings around the top the of the structure that people might, in theory, be able to traverse and do some sightseeing from; of course, not only are these "outcroppings" (i.e. tops of crates that aren't completely covered by the crates above) barely big enough to support this, there's no practical way to even reach them, at least for the average human being. Even if someone were to find their way to the top, the safety problems don't stop with a lack of stable standing space; throughout the entire structure, there are visible gaps between the objects used to form it. In addition to being a blatant violation of physics, it makes traversing the structure a dangerous proposition, as legs may easily fall into the gaps, possibly trapping the poor soul who simply wanted to look at the world from up high. Finally, and perhaps worst of all, it is unable to actually tell the time, rendering it utterly worthless for the purpose it should be fulfilling.

In short, it is an abomination of architecture only excused by the fact that it was never intended to be anything but what it actually is (though what the actual intention behind it was remains a mystery to even the man who constructed it). It is perhaps better suited as a piece of abstract art rather than an actual building.

Suddenly, an odd noise rings out and the tower drops a short distance to the ground, the objects rigidly connected to each other despite no visual indication that this should be. It sways back and forth a bit, but it does not fall.]

so do you want this thing put anywhere in particular

[ She looks up at the state of the completed clock tower now. It wasn't like she's expecting an actual one... even though this really is odd. Abstract. Out of place and doesn't fulfill what it should be doing. But it is oddly fitting in that sense, at least for her.

She looks back down, then shakes her head. ]

Just here would be fine.

all right then

hobo clock tower will stand here for the rest of its days

[The tower continues to sway ever so slightly, but thankfully it would take quite a bit more than one young girl to send it toppling. The man once again hovers into the air, static as always.]

anything else you need

[ "Hobo"? What's that?

Xion walks to the clock tower and examines it from the bottom before turning to the strange man and shaking her head. ]

This is it, really. Thank you, um...?

mingebag

usually i go by onewingedgarfield69 but i decided to change it up a bit for today

just a little tribute to the old days of gmod

[He once again takes flight, but stops mid-air. He turns back to face her.]

what's your name

it's not showing up when i aim at you

[action] Sorry about the length, but I felt like I had to describe this thing in great detail.

[action] tis fine!

[action] We never did establish where this was, did we?

[action] Nope. They're in Saffron City.

[action] Really sorry about the delay! At least I came back after the old comment system returned.
