Cliche Speaks - Tumblr Posts
i keep gaining followers.
is there a reason?
hello!
shout out to my newest (REAL. certainly) follower, who has no posts, no customization, and a rather suspect profile picture
So glad so many people are on board with Sleeping-Cliché despite my utter silence and clearly terminal FNAF brain rot
Shout out to my mutuals for real, though Ill never understand why you follow me
I do appreciate it when someone interacts with or includes me in tags or posts or anything of the sort - though I usually don't respond.
I'm not the type to respond publicly often, and I don't have very many mutuals to include in games, but I do grin every time I'm included.
Just wanted to mention that, in case anyone who does include me is worried I'm not responding cuz I'm seething with rage or anything like that haha. No, I'm excited! Just quiet.
helloo !
i hope you don't mind me sending an ask ( i just wanted to say hello :D )

if this gets one like I might share to you a music box or two from my 'collection'

Here is my second favorite music box of my lot, tune wise (Though it shares a tune with another). I'm mostly certain it plays Love Story by Andy Williams (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtfly9kCzNY - Sorry for the shitty 11 year old video; I could not find a better one with the exact tune.)
It's the sort that will pause if tilted. The governor* is flat and metal. The key is the same plastic as the sides and has an interesting, flat shape. It is entirely a brassy colored metal, save the key and box. There are few marks: "FU(?)JI | JAPAN" on the drum; "WACO | PRODUCT OF JAPAN" on a sticker on it's bottom; "DON'T OVERWIND ->" on the key; "JAPAN" on it's bottom.
An additional piece of hardware is used in the stopping mechanism, a sliding weight which inhibits the governor. It is connected interestingly to the comb's two screws. There's also extra material around the drum's free side. There is also an intentionally cut comb tooth.
It has some damage on the outside plastic but none reaching the box itself, which plays with little extra effort. If jostled, it will often play after stopping. (Might need oil on the governor spot.)
I cannot safely remove it from the container (as I do other boxes), and do not intend to try.
Here is what some of the parts do. You probably know already tho V
1: *Called the Governor. Well, the circle is around the whole assembly, but whatever. It's a sorta fan looking thing which regulates the speed of the music by air resistance. As a sort of 'side effect', it will also pause the music if stopped.
2: Don't think it has a name, because it's different on a lot of boxes, but on this one it's a sliding weight. When you tilt the box, it moves into the way of the governor and stops the music. Tilted back, it frees the governor. It is held in place by the governor's assembly.
3: This is what I called the motor, but it's just the Clockspring. Exactly what it says: inside is a coiled bit of flat metal that powers the box, and is connected directly to the key.
Unlabeled (and much more commonly understood):
Drum, cylinder, etc, which is the big thing with pins on it. That's the music sheet, and will strum the ...
Comb, which is the comb shaped thing with teeth and the only thing that will produce the sound. Fun fact: If you look on the side, you can see varying thicknesses on the teeth. That makes the sound a little deeper, and makes the comb more compact. If they were all the same thickness, the comb would have to be longer. Bonus! If you unscrew it, then you will have a very hard time getting every note to ring the same way as before.

I am brute forcing animation. MS paint frames, no onion skin (that I know how to do), exported, emailed to myself, downloaded onto other device, and then turned into a gif using EZgif maker
color pallets? matching? theories?
