The ticking went off beat. And it was different kinds of ticking. Like a drunk orchestra.

Fascinating. I'll have to monitor it. Obviously I shouldn't speculate without enough data.

[He just arrived. Can't speculate yet.]

[deadmanbusiness]

Not that it wouldn't stop you.

They -the coup people, they're calling themselves Anonymous - have been mucking about with the clock. They say they're better than the old regime but...

[Stick-poke.]

Stop being so vague. But-ominous-ellipse-pause what?

[deadmanbusiness]

I have the feeling that this is just some sort of fake coup. My father would pull something off like this. You know, have a thing then have someone else come in to make it better but they're still being controlled by the old group. Just pretending otherwise.

I'm not sure yet though. Not enough information. They're probably going to be as bad as the last group.

Ave bossa nova, similis bossa seneca.

[He snorts. Thanks, Terry Pratchett.]

But that would make sense, especially if there's been unrest over the old leaders.

[deadmanbusiness]

Considering they make Kari look like a stable individual... Yeah there was plenty of unrest.

[They come to a square with a merry-go-round and a ticking noise. It's hard to miss but people seem to be avoiding it anyway.]

There it is.

[oughtnot]

Brilliant! Can you ride it?

[He heads over, stick at the ready.]

[deadmanbusiness]

Er. No. It seems to have a bit of an aversion thing to it. Everyone just sort of pretends it's not there.

[Theo wonders if he should stop Adrian.]

[oughtnot]

I should probably examine it a bit first.

[He beelines for it.]

[deadmanbusiness]

[Of course he does. And of course Theo doesn't try and stop him. He just follows behind.]

Just... be careful. Anna'd be pissed if you started the apocalypse.
