“Hey, Cleo, help me hang this straight will ya?” Bdubs voice snapped her out of her thoughts. When she looked up, he was holding a golden clock aloft and blinking at her.

“I’m not sure how helpful I’ll be for that, but I’ll give it a go,” they joked, turning to the wall he was eyeing. “Where did you get that shiny thing?”

Bdubs puffed up proudly. “A treasured gift from Scar! Day one clock, I keep it in my pockets when I’m mining. So I can avoid the stupid phantoms. I’m just gonna make a nice hook for it here when I’m running around so I don’t lose it or somethin’.”

They quirked an eyebrow at him. “Don’t worry Bdubs, I don’t want your silly clock. Usually I just look up at the sky.”

He laughed and shook his head. “Yeah, yeah, whatever, just tell me if this is a good height -”
