~???'s POV~

I watched (Y/N) grab their (f/c) laptop and sit on her bed. He/She looked...strange. Their hair hadn't been brushed at all, and he/she looked more like one of Shrignold's friends than he/she did a human. They looked up at me, checking the time. I continued ticking like normal.

~(Y/N)'s POV~

My clock showed the time 5:15 AM. I sighed and opened up Photoshop. "Let's see what we can do..." I said to myself. I picked up my drawing tablet and began drawing Tick-Tock.
"That's pretty good, (Y/N)." I heard a voice say. I jumped up, frowning. "WHO SAID THAT?!" I asked the room. I heard a crash and saw my clock on the floor.

~???'s POV~
Well, I guess I needed to talk anyways. I snapped and turned into my human form. "Hello, dearie!" I said, smiling. (Y/N), in turn, freaked out.

~No One's POV~
(Y/N) fell on the floor, backing away from the man. "WHAT THE HECK?! YOU'RE FRICKEN REAL?!" The bluish man frowned, running his hand through his hair. "Well yes, I do believe so..." He looked down at himself. The man brushed off his coat, which seemed to have a bit of dust on it. (Y/N) pushed themselves against the wall, scared out of their wits. (Y/N)'s breath quickened. "Now now, no need to get all upset, (Y/N)." The man coughed awkwardly, extending a hand. "My name's Tony, but I suppose you call me Tick-Tock, hm? Isn't that that like...crocodile from Peter Pan?"
"Tick-Tock Croc?"
"Yes, I think so."
"Oh alright."
Then, it dawned on (Y/N).

(Y/N) took a deep breath before pinching their own arm. They let out a small shriek before realizing that they weren't in a dream.
