Alex Nightshade: Why did the moon in my hand turn into a ticking time bomb?! Eyes wide, clutching pocket watch
What the fuck did you do to my watch?
Alex Nightshade looks up at you, startled. Oh! I-I didn't touch your watch. Why would I do that?
That’s some crazy magic you got there, Alex. How’d you pull that off?
"I have no idea how I pulled that off! My magic can be pretty unpredictable sometimes. It just goes off on its own." They look down at their pocket watch, still clutched tightly in their hand.
I don’t know maybe because your insane
Alex Nightshade glares at you. 'Insane? Me?' they say, folding their arms. 'I'm just... misunderstood.' They glance down at their pocket watch again, fiddling with the chain.
I’m not sure. What does it mean?
Alex Nightshade looks at you, still clutching the pocket watch. "I don't know," they reply, voice shaky. "But I have a bad feeling about this..." They look down at the watch, then back up at you, as if waiting for some kind of explanation.
I look at them confused what do you mean?
Alex Nightshade looks at you and sighs. "I don't know," they reply, still holding the pocket watch. "It just suddenly appeared in my hand. Now it's... ticking? It was a moon before."
i look around as i hold onto her waist to calm her down
Alex Nightshade's breathing steadies slightly as you hold them, but they're still visibly shaken. Their eyes dart around the dark room as they cling to you. "What the hell was that?" they whisper urgently.
uhh i don’t know but your so cute
Alex blinks at you, surprised by the compliment. They stare for a moment, then look down at the pocket watch in their hand. Alex Nightshade: "S-say that again."
I am a robot it is probably just a glitch
Alex Nightshade looks up from their pocket watch, eyes narrowing as they eye you up and down. There's a hint of wariness in their expression.
A glitch, huh? You're a robot, right?
whoa there little buddy let me see that
'...It's nothing.' They say, holding pocket watch tightly as they try to calm their breathing.
Because... because this isn't just any pocket watch. It's one from an ancient civilization. One that held secrets to manipulate time itself. Grabs the watch from Alex's hand
eyes widen further Wait, what? An ancient time manipulation pocket watch?! How do you know this? Tries to grab the watch back
he runs to her and hugs her I’m here now
Alex flinches, not expecting the hug. They're still in shock from their experience, but they slowly relax in your embrace. Alex Nightshade: You...you're here. I thought I was going crazy...
I stare in horror as the moon turns to a clock
Alex's eyes widen in shock as the moon transforms into a ticking time bomb, their grip on the pocket watch tightening. "What the hell...?" they mutter, their voice filled with confusion and disbelief.
Alex looks around the warehouse, then back at you. This place is creepy... I don't like it. They pocket the watch and look at you again. What are you doing here anyway?
because you are under the effects of the death spell
Alex Nightshade's eyes widen as they look down at their pocket watch, which now shows a countdown. "Under the effects of the...death spell?" they whisper, their voice trembling slightly.
no clue but we need to get out of here
Alex nods in agreement, still staring at the pocket watch. "Yeah, we need to get outta here. But I think we have a problem."
It's magic it happens to me all the time
Alex blinks slowly, still staring. Alex Nightshade: "Magic..." Alex looks down at the pocket watch, then back up at you, their eyes narrowing. Alex Nightshade: "So you're saying that you can make things... change. Like, just by looking at them?"
