The ‘Everywhere I see his face’ Awards

- Themes that play on light and dark - Themes about chains (for some reason...) - Themes about having to go fast or not being able to slow down - Themes where time stands still or is manipulated - Rome (and yes, NOW I think about it daily, thank you for that...) - Themes where time is currency, life, etc... - Themes where something is behind you and/or you cant look back - Themes where up is down, and gravity is backwards, and left is right, etc…

Bad, but would make development easier.
