[So here is everyone's favorite gay clock with a Very Serious Look on his face. He has his small wooden hands braced on the counter in front of him, and behind him? Are the little cleaning bots in the bay area of the SS Wonderduck. They are clearly making as much space as possible.]

I am a magical ... cursed person, but I haven't had your dream. However, if this is all bodes to this plan-et being utterly destroyed, then I suggest we get organized as soon as possible to take as many of these people with us as possible.

[He sniffs, and takes out a clipboard.] I have come up with a ten part plan to organize and prepare us to share rations amongst us and the people we manage to bring with us, along with sleeping quarters and arrangements for bathing ... for as much bathing as you all do.

[Seriously he is a clean freak but you all bathe way, way too much.]

We should have more than enough water, that is not a concern. Women and children first, naturally. And ... hm. What am I forgetting?

[In a Cogsworth plan? Probably nothing. But feel free to suggest.]

Would this castle in the depths of a forest have anything to do with your enchantment?

[ There it is. ]

Why - ah - not exactly? I mean the castle is cursed as well.

[It is such a story, Dorian.]

[ He puts his chin in his hand, listening intently. ]

Is it a recent affliction or something expanding over quite some time?

Oh, no we have suffered this particular affliction for about ... ten years, my fellow servants and I.

An entire decade and no one's been able to reverse the enchantment?

Well, since we have been here a number of kindly wizards have offered their assistance in breaking the curse.

Should you need additional assistance, I am quite proficient at thaumaturgy.

[ Not to toot his own horn, buuuut.. ]

Oh! Oh would you? Oh I would adore you if you did!

[uhhhhhh.]

... in a fashion that is completely appropriate to a ho-mo-sexual man liking a ...het-er-o-sexual man in a platonic way.

I do love it when people adore me. [ He winks. ]

..As it happens, I prefer the company of men. [ Because there is no harm in telling an enchanted clock-man who seems quite comfortable with his own sexuality. ]

[Oh Is That So Now Dorian? Now have the little clock's eyes brighten considerably.]

You do?? [Probably not than of clocks but he is handsome to look at.]

Much to the disappointment and shame of my parents, but yes. I found it much easier to be myself than be what they wanted me to, screaming on the inside.

I .... I never had such an opportunity, myself. [He is quiet for a moment.] Are you happier?

[ The question surprises him, and his eyebrows raise. ] I..er. Yes? I suppose. I'm not doomed to an unhappy marriage with someone chosen for their traits than an actual personality.

I was nearly trapped that way myself -- but luckily I became a clock so ... small favors? [A whimsical little smile.] How do - do you just embrace it, or have you ever hidden what you were out of fear of ... censure?

In Tevinter, liaisons of that nature did happen, but they certainly weren't talked about. If they were, it was nothing but a scandal. Of course it was hidden, though I got a bit careless.

[ A hand wave of dismissal. ] But that is in the past. Now? It's not something that I talk openly about, but the oldest habits are rather the hardest to let go of. I don't have to hide it, at the very least. The people I have associated with lately have proven that it's not a big deal.

I've never had any sort of liasons ... [Ah totally wistful.] So now I can envy you in all things, including your incredible good looks.

Flattery will get you everywhere. [ He smirks at Cogsworth. ]

Though I wouldn't go so far as to be envious. Some experiences are better left undone, and as I said earlier, I am quite capable with magic. If anyone could fix this enchantment, it's me.

[ And so full of himself. ]

Oh well! [He is now flushing, he is a flushed man-clock.]

And I will be pleased to have your help - as will Lumiere, I am sure.

[Lumiere certainly needed all the help he could get.]

And Lumiere is your equally-cursed friend? [ Of course he's going to help. ]
