I was thinking how do you age when you are in a speed bubble. Would you age like if you where not in a speed bubble? Would you age at a normal rate relative to your speed bubble? What I mean is if you where in a speed bubble for 5 minutes would you age by 25 ish minutes or 5 minutes. If you age relative to not being in the speed bubble could that have interesting affects for a savent (probably spelt that wrong)

Yes you are still ageing in time bubbles, time dilation is effecting them etc. If you are out of the bubble, your ageing is not changed, inside it is. Chromium slows down ageing, bendalloy speeds it up. 

So if Wayne makes a bubble, and spends there 5 minutes, from his perspective, form outside's it was 30 sec or whatever short time, but he would age full 5 min, as 5 minutes passes for him.
If Marasi makes a bubble and spends there 30 minutes (her perspective), but for everyone outside, the bubble was there for whatever long hours, she would age only 30 minutes.  

Physics works like it should work with changing of how fast time passes. But it's only affecting what's inside the bubble, because only in the bubble time changes accrues.

When someone is inside a time bubble where time is going faster, do they age more quickly than they would outside?

Yes.

So there's a sort of relativistic effect going on there?

Yes, I tried to keep it as close as possible to the actual effects. The only thing I didn't include, I think, is the red-shift of light when it leaves the bubble, because that would irradiate everything around it.

Essentially, if Marasi had an infinite stock of Cadmium, then slowed down time so a century passed but for her it was only 20 seconds, then when she stopped burning Cadmium, she would only have aged 20 seconds, but a century would have passed.
