You leave The Figure of Archibald Hood at your location.
A masterpiece is a labor of love an artist must put their life into. As Bryan folds and unfolds his body alongside the focused paper, blood begins to seep through each sheet, turning them a dark red and creating a pool of ichor beneath him as it drips. Once he has bonded his vision into the paper, typically shaping it into the form of the object he's animating, he presses it into the target and allows it to unfold. What remains on the object is a patterned sheet of paper, with each crease being a fold that represents its construction.
This paper moves around the object when it takes action, unfolding and refolding to match its movements-- creating circles around a vehicle's wheels, shooting out through a gun's barrel, etc.

As this activates, the internals of the watch disappear from within the watch case, and reappear scattered randomly throughout the target. The watch and all the parts (now inside the target) still function during this time, as if they were still in their usual place.
