[Does this look like a harassed clock with a human face? Does it? Good, because it's Cogsworth, sitting in front of a window on the Marvisa and he looks like he just swallowed about a half a dozen lemons. In his tiny brass hands he is holding a piece of paper, and he keeps fiddling with it, shifting it between his two hands.

He puts one brass hand up to his mouth, clears his throat, and then fumbles with the paper for a moment. Could he be ... nervous? It's possible.

Lips pressed together, the time hands on his face twitching, he states flatly.]

Hello. My name is Cogsworth and I am a ... [now he has to look at the word.] Ho-mo-sexual. I realize that I am a ... clock, but I assure you that I am not a ho-mo-sex-ual clock, but a ho-mo-sex-ual man. I have been ... told. Rigorously.

[Here he is glowering.]

That I need to ... 'embrace' this. So. If there are any ... individual males who would not mind ... being complimented by a ... human clock, then, ah. Please! Come forward.

[Okay he'll try a smile but it's more of a sheepish grimace at this point. God help him.]

[Goody! Compliments are one of his favorite things! He definitely didn't need his ego fed when he is confident with his looks, but he's looking to have his ego fed anyway.]

Just my smile is handsome?

[timelysteward]

What? Oh no, you seem to be overall quite attractive. You have ... a cheeky rakish air. Reminds me of ... quite a few people actually.

[How did he know so many rakish people already? Sheesh.]

[mrfancyhat]

A few people, huh? You must have excellent taste in the company you keep.

[He didn't plan to give a compliment in return, but that might be as good as it gets.]

[timelysteward]

I do have a great deal of refined tastes. [And have yourself a smug little tipping of his tiny mustache hands.]

[mrfancyhat]

Isn't that great? Even in your current form, you attract the right people to you.

[timelysteward]

I. Well. I ... Yes!

[Now that cheered him up considerably. Even as a clock he drew the sort of gentlemen he wanted to draw.]

[mrfancyhat]

It's good.

[Cogsworth gets a big smile for that.]

Go forth and be an inspiration to us all!

[timelysteward]

[Yes the clock is of course, puffing up again.] I shall for one and for all!
