I'm trying to work three jobs to support myself, my mother, and my grandmother. I'm tired all the time. Property taxes were $15,000 this year. I need to post more often again. I can do it! It'll be fun!
I admit that it was a weird and unsettling shock to understand that 'time powers' are actually...creepier than that, but there are many possibilities opened by it.
"No, but I never thought it was possible. Fish don't know they're underwater, and all that."
I look around, mostly to gather my thoughts. I have an innate and well-honed sense for the flow of time and know better than almost anyone that time is not a uniform motion or even a direction, and it has its eddies and whorls, in a manner of speaking. Mostly to do with extremely high gravity or velocity.
But maybe I've never really understood before.
I spin in place a few times to try to "get" the concept of moving along with time instead of across or at an angle. Walking was necessary when I was a little kid, to move into, well, Limbo I suppose. Physical action helped contextualize and cement the conceptual action of performing a non-physical task.
I find one of spatially local time's eddies and walk several steps alongside, meandering in the lazy curves of the temporal disturbance, rather than ignoring it like I usually do. Maybe that will do something.
