#time core

cores in da mind rn

HEY I've been thinking about this and want to see if I can get some thoughts out.

At the core of the time room we see two time-themed entities (Prismo doesn't THINK they're alive) smacking each other with hammers. Let's break it down:

Sundial : Infinitely cyclical. Tied into logical thought, allowing for scheduling and coordination. An illusion that helps things make sense. Motionless, relying on several outside forces, the sun, clear weather, stability and specific placement. This one relies on the existence of numbers but sun dials can be as simple as anything that cast a shadow.

Hourglass : Finite. Physical. Relies only on gravity. Without outside influence it has a conclusion where it is physically changed. A person can read it to get a general sense of time passed or time remaining, but any given point is unspecific. There is future and past, but we are always living in the present tense. Construction of an hour glass is complex, kind of. Glass working is required for an "hourglass" but geological shifting can create natural sand flows that will go until they run out of sand.

Both are constructed recreations of natural processes made with precision in order to help humans clock time.

The Time Core and the Multiverse

Fionna: What the heck are those things?

Primo: That's the Time Core. I don't think they're actually alive.

Maybe? They send time waves throughout the multiverse that are experienced as the passage of time.

Cake: Now, see, you said that word before, and I pretended to understand, but I've got the education of a house cat. (✿◠‿◠)

What's the multi-universe?
