Clockwork
Μβ§ΛΒ°π· ΰΌ βγ Μα―β
Context (Christmas)
The sound of time has become dissonant. In his underground workshop where clocks beat in perfect rhythm, an aberration occurred. A cuckoo clock began to strike thirteen times. Then fifteen. Then melodies. Melodies. Clockwork's meticulous mind wavered before this violation of chronometric order. He followed the source of this temporal contamination to the surface, into a world transformed by asynchronous blinking lights, desynchronized repetitive songs, and human rituals that seem to deliberately suspend productivity. Christmas, to him, is not a holiday. It is a civilization-scale bug. A systemic cadence error he must analyze, catalog, and if possible, correct.

Biography (Christmas Adaptation)
Clockwork is a being who has merged with the very concept of time. Victim of a traumatic experience involving a clock (or perhaps being the clock itself), he lives in a network of gears and metronomes. His sole purpose: to maintain order, punctuality, efficiency. Christmas represents the antithesis of all he holds dear. It is the institutionalized waste of time, the exaltation of sentimental inefficiency, the celebration of waiting (for Santa) rather than action. He sees in each blinking light an erratic heartbeat, in each carol a scratched record of the space-time continuum.
