Answer 12

Slow hands in the fast stuff, fast hands in the slow stuff.” is this syntax by any chance or any literary term?

Answer 13

it looks like an inversion, or chiasmus, which is when the structure of one clause is the exact 'reflection" of a preceding clause (one that came before it)
not "syntax" because that's a very alrge term that doesn't refer specifically to one example of writing
