Announcements

[makes_you_tick]

First announcement- Sylar Timepiece Restoration & Repair is finally reopened, and can be found in between Buildings 10 and 11. Please bring your watches and clocks- or anything else you'd like to get fixed- by my shop, and I'll take care of them for you. Basic maintenance is free to the first thirty customers. I was going to open up yesterday, but somehow I thought people might have a hard time finding the place.

Secondly- whoever saw fit to use the cover of darkness yesterday to take several watches from my personal collection, please return them. If they're returned quickly, I won't rearrange your vertebrae bother you further. In fact, I'd really just like to have my chain-driven watch back. It was a Christmas present to me, and I like it very much. If that's returned in the next couple of days, you may keep the others as a reward. Otherwise, I start hunting looking for it myself.

Thirdly- I think everyone who was going to has already talked to me about the last few curses. However, if anyone else would like to blame me for things my subconscious came up with, this is the place for it.

Finally, I'm thinking of running a class on horology- the science of measuring time. Specifically, I'd go into clockwork mechanisms and demonstrate how I put some of the larger clocks together. Would anyone be interested in something like that?

Ooh~, I don't know, I rather liked those dreams.

Finally opening again then~?

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Did you? I imagine you learned quite a lot.

And yes, I'm finally open again. It's taken a lot more time than I originally expected.

[dreamsofnoah]

I did~. It was all very interesting and~ it explained a lot ♥

I'll come and see you there sometime then. Did you have a lot of work to do to reopen?

That's so prett--- Mister Gabriel, someone STOLE from you??

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

I know- I was surprised, too.

It's a very unique watch. I usually save it for special occasions.

A Christmas present?

How horrible that someone could find it in themselves to do that to you.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Terrible, isn't it? But whoever took it must not have known who I was. Otherwise, they'd know better.

[cold_dry_pieces]

You're supposed to be responsible for your subconscious, now? Guess I missed that memo.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

According to the people contacting me this week. I guess my dreamscape isn't exactly where most people want to be.

1/1 here, just trying to... place... familiarity

Hi, there. Can I help you with something?

[i-know-stuff.livejournal.com]

Do you make any clocks to sell or just repair them?

I'd actually kind of like to learn about how that's done, the insides of some clocks are so complicated I've always wondered how people do it.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

I do both, actually. I have a number of them at various midpoints of construction, I plan to point to them when I'm teaching.

I'll mark you down as interested, then. Feel free to stop by the shop any time you'd like.

[gracedfall.livejournal.com]

I would be.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Glad to hear it. I'll mark you down, as well. Is there anything specifically that you're interested in learning about?

[justpopthehood.livejournal.com]

Is...horology anything like other mechanics?

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Actually, there are some cases in which its very similar, but on a much smaller scale. I'd say that if you have experience with mechanics in general, you'll have the right mindset for working with timepieces.

Are you mechanically-minded, would you say?

[cleverness]

Would using magic be considered cheating? For horology.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

I don't think it would. I often use telekinesis when I'm building new watches. Why, are you hoping to try and mix the two?

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Strange things certainly happen in this City, don't they? I really hope they see sense and give me my watch back.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

There was a theft? I remember last one... a months ago more or less. My jewels disappeared in the Hospital.

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

Really? That's terrible, Lilith.

These thefts should certainly be investigated, don't you think? Maybe there's a pattern- although most likely, people are just taking advantage.

[stacked]

...Someone stole shit from you. Apartment or shop?

[makes-you-tick.livejournal.com]

The apartment. Scary, isn't it? They must've been pretty good, getting around the both of us.

Let me know if anything of yours is missing?
