He can never enjoy music again. A three-minute song lasts 25 hours. He hears every out-of-tune note, every breath of the flutist, every squeak of the chair. He hates Beethoven.

He solves Fermat’s Last Theorem in a lunch break. He reads every unread email on the internet in an afternoon. He achieves "Nirvana by exhaustion"—he has felt every emotion so many times that fear, joy, and anger become indistinguishable static. Closing Hook "Super Ramon is awake now. He has been awake for 10,000 years relative to his own clock. Outside, the sun hasn’t risen yet. He reaches for the off switch on his neck. He hesitates. Because for the first time in eternity... he is curious to see what happens in the next millisecond." Trans500: The Dawn of Super Ramon is not a story about speed. It is a story about waiting for a world that cannot catch up.
