Time Freeze Veronica Leal [work]

Veronica Leal had always been fast. As a child, she could snatch a falling glass before it hit the tile floor. As a track athlete, she broke records she never officially set because the stopwatches around her would sometimes stutter, the hands trembling as if confused.

“Everyone needs. That’s not the point. A Stutter is a lens, not a lever. You’ve warped the glass.” He gestured to her hand. She looked down. Her fingers were translucent. She could see the grain of the wooden table through her skin.
