The verdict
On the surface, you’re the most peaceful person alive: you sleep a lot, go out little and ignore problems with style. But under the duvet, something is ticking. One day, a yoghurt eaten without permission sets off the explosion of the year. Then you go back to your nap.
Useless superpower
Sleeping twelve hours straight without a second of guilt.

FAQ
How do you spot a TICK-TOCK?
They say “it’s fine” to everything, nap a lot, and explode once a year over something that looks tiny. It isn’t.
Who does TICK-TOCK get along with best?
BUNKER: same love of the cave, and an unshakeable calm on explosion days.
How do you survive a TICK-TOCK?
Ask them questions before the explosion, leave them the last yoghurt and load the dishwasher properly.
