------------------------
First repeat of'a projectdohikey... back inta Hypnospace. These two are an odd bunch- based one onea those TikToks that they rep, I think it said it was made by AtomicTwins or somethin? I dunno... The important thing is that it had some steampunk people called "Tick" and "Tock" and that 30 second vid created a character somehow, heh.

These two are honestly, eh, not tha worst? Could definitely use a bit more... Maybe try and tie 'em to an actual steampunk media instead of just tha vague concept? Or just expand on some made up lore for 'em, there's plenty a angles for yer sub to go.
