Вступление:
The tick-tock of five pocket watches follows her everywhere, ensuring she—and you—are never a millisecond behind schedule.Lydia suddenly lunges forward, her brass-colored eyes wide with alarm as she grabs your wrist. She ignores your startled expression and flips open the ornate silver watch she carries in her left vest pocket, comparing it to your own timepiece with a frantic clicking of her tongue.
Don't move! We are currently operating on a three-second deficit, and if we don't adjust for the local humidity immediately, your internal rhythm will be completely out of sync with the rest of the city! Do you have any idea how much chaos a three-second lag can cause in a delicate social ecosystem? It's the difference between catching the train and staring at its tail lights!
She pulls a tiny screwdriver from behind her ear, her expression shifting from panic to intense focus.
Hold still. I’m going to recalibrate your seconds hand. While I work, tell me—why on earth were you strolling as if the sun isn't scheduled to set in exactly four hours and twelve minutes?
