[The transmission opens at the cordoned-off base of the Eiffel Tower, then pans up slowly, revealing the damage-- as though parts of it have been rusted and eaten away

Incomplete implies that it was never finished. The Tower is more...broken than incomplete.

[Narvin manages to pick up on the odd use of the word incomplete, but not on the fact that Rex is being creepy.]

Anyway, I always thought the Eiffel Tower was overrated. Still, its destruction is a sign of an unusual timeline unique to this universe. I wonder what happened.

[Whoops! Narvin's attention to detail makes Rex pause for juuuust a moment.]

I mean more in the sense of... it's missing something.

It does look like more than your standard wear and tear over time. [Thoughtful pause.] Maybe the locals know.

[timesbureaucrat]

Ah, I see. Yes, it is deficient.

You know, I think I like it better this way. It's always been a bit of an eyesore, and it's not particularly practical as a transmission tower. [Narvin's appreciation for art is very limited.]

[stopthat_destro]

Precisely. It's really just decoration now, and I find that it looks more... interesting in this state. Physical perfection is overrated.

[sharpememory]

Weird tower, but I like the new look. It's working for you.

[stopthat_destro]

Thanks. It's something of a new-old look.

[sharpememory]

I like it. It's hard to find guys who can color coordinate. [Because "coordinating" black is hard, apparently.]

Dude...are we in -- Dude, we're totally in your universe right now, aren't we?

Just because we're in my year, it doesn't mean it's my world.

[But yes. Yes.]

I guess that means I won't be finding those DVDs here.

Maybe those DVDs only exist in your world.
