Just doing a check - how many of you can make some kind of portable healing item? Like... a potion or stimulant, or, dunno, a cake, or something that'll heal injuries quickly. Missions are getting pretty dangerous, and with it liking to split the teams up so much, I figure it'd be good to start thinking about back-up plans in case a team's healer is taken out of commission or ends up 'visiting the control coach' during mission week.

[ Like her, for example. ]

Just... gimme an idea of what you can make, and what you'd need for it, I guess. Reply to standard coach, or come and talk to me.

[ She reaches towards the screen, then pauses. ] Oh, right. I've finished writing up my notes of the missions so far, so if you want to come and give 'em a look, get an idea of what you'll be doing in the future, that's fine too.

[ Bwip. ]

[ About ten minutes later, she's back: ] Just repeating something Tidus said - it'd be good to know the same for defensive supplies. Stun grenades, nets, deployable barriers. Magic or whatever else that does the same thing.

Perhaps.

[As good a term as any.]

I have it under control, I think, but it would probably be a good idea to have someone else keeping an eye on it. Just in case someone's pet get too close at an unfortunate moment.

[ She makes a soft huh sound. ] Think I've seen her around. Didn't know she was a soldier, though...

I'll speak to Rieper. He's been keeping an eye on the training. [ She hesitates, then reaches up to place a hand on his shoulder. ] Thanks, for all this.

it's not that. I just didn't know we could. So I will at least consider it if it means I can be of use.

[ Light, is this a Soft??

It's not a gesture Tidus was expecting, and he blinks, before laughing a little, embarrassed. ]

Hey, you're the one who made the call! You're the one actually getting things moving. I don't know the first thing about putting into action anything like this.

[ Organising, supplying. Or maybe he doesn't have the right spirit, whatever that is. A level of authority that Light wears in the way she presents herself. ]

I just hope everyone else goes along with it and sees it's a good idea.

[ Don't tell anyone, her reputation will be ruin--- who are we kidding.

She pulls away again after a moment, eyes flickering sideways and down to hide her momentary embarrassment. Over the praise - unnecessary, since she's just impatient - and his own reaction. ]

... Right. Guess we'll find out.

[ HUFF THE AWKWARD AWAY ] Now we just need the train authority to play nice with supplies, and we're set.

Might be that the mission's something that doesn't need healers, but... [ she shrugs!! ] Thanks, even just thinking about it is good.

Well, whatever happens, if we've got people onboard who can cook somethin' up, we'll make it work!

[ She's brought out his full optimism at the very least, and he's even looking at the anti-grav device that just decided to beach ball him with some thought. ]

Show me how this works sometime too! In the gym. [ But for now, he'll hand it back over. ] You don't have more gadgets like it, do you?

... I'm gonna regret asking this, but are you implying it eats small animals?

Sure. I'll get you the manual later, and you can give it a proper try.

[ Hums. ] There's other manadrive tech we could use... strength enhancers, maybe. Some accessories and gear that would be a big help.

[ she'd thought about transgates, but... not knowing how they work, she's not sure they'd work outside of Cocoon. ]

Do you have anything like it?

Not really. I wouldn't know if Zanarkand had anything like that, and Spira--Rikku would know more about the machina. She was one of Yuna's guardians; she still spends time with her.

[ And, well... He looks aside, pressing his lips together. ]

You'd be better asking Yuna. Spira's changed since I last saw it--I got taken two years in the past from Yuna, so.

[ He looks at Light as he says that, but shifts his gaze again towards the end. A brief hesitance before he regains himself. ]

But it could have a lot of new stuff. You've seen her dress sphere, right? She has all kinds of weapons hidden away.

Hey, I resent being compared to a kid!

[ He knows it doesn't exactly contribute to the current conversation, but that's exactly why he says it. They're breaching a serious topic here, and as if to keep Lightning from realising just how truly serious it is, he's bringing this levity to it. Since he can't fully back out of this anymore, he might as well make it seem like a casual of a thing as possible. Something that isn't all that much of a big deal.

Because what else is he supposed to say. That it's a remnant of dealing with an apocalyptic hellscape with limited healing resources? That'd sure ruin the image just about anyone has of him. Inigo can't have that. ]

But I'm fine. Really. Look.

[ He pulls the top of his hoodie to the side, showing his bare shoulder. There's a scar on it - something that kind of looks like a huge claw. It seems to run further down, although the rest of it is obscured by his hoodie. ]

This? Never got it treated. And I'm fine! Didn't kill me.

Well Berserk kind of makes you go crazy, you know? It makes you just want to attack whatever is in front of you without a break. I've actually...haha....fainted from that.

( she hates to admit it, but when she's been striked by it, it isn't pretty.

nonetheless she holds her staff up and casts the spell, causing lighting to slow down significantly in whatever she was doing and will do. )

Alright, give me a moment to transform again.

( reaching for her grid, she held it up and transformed into her white mage outfit. )

[ would that effect even.

change anything............

.......

oh, she was Slowed. She shifted, blinked, and frowned at the light that swept up Yuna's body, although by the time she'd finished that long list of tasks and managed to open her mouth to ask about it, the other woman was already clad in white robes. ]

[ ... ]

Yeah, she 'showed' me earlier. [ by which she means, Light needs to stop allowing people to cast things on her. ] Once she's trained up a bit, she's gonna be a real menace.

[ she shifts, and smiles wryly. ] Not that she isn't already...

You better believe it. When it comes to magic, you can't grumble with Yuna. She'd be unstoppable if she had her aeons.

[ For the belief in his words, he's still not looking at Light head on. Nope, Nothing Going On Here. ]

Then don't act like-- [ She's pulled up short by him baring skin. Blinks at the scar, roping along his shoulder.

Stares at it. And then at him. Her voice goes absolutely deadpan. ]

I'm missing what part of this show-and-tell is meant to convince me you don't need as much help as anyone else.

[ He quickly pulls his hoodie back up again when he knows she's seen it. Despite how confident Inigo tries to act at times, he actually hates showing off skin.. This much was only okay since it was just his shoulder! ]

I'm trying to say that I survived that. [ And plenty of other times. There's a lot more scars hidden underneath that hoodie, after all, but he sure doesn't want to show off the full extent of it. ] So I can handle more than the average person.

[ It might be slightly stubborn, insisting on that even in the face of her deadpan, but Inigo genuinely believes this. No, he has to believe it and live up to it. ]

[A short nod.]

I do have defenses up. But it's the instinct of the Deku Baba to snap, and it can injure small creatures within reach.

( as much as yuna wanted to show off her abilities and look cool at it, she couldn't help but feel bad about putting lighting in such a situation.

no worries though, because as soon as she can, yuna is holding her white mage staff before the other, casting an esuna spell.

after a few moments, lighting should be able to move freely again. )

So, what do you think?

[ She remains unconvinced. She also remains sure that he's gonna keep insisting on this, because he's a stubborn guy if you push the wrong way.

Which, because it's her, she absolutely is. ]

Just... There are people in here that don't wanna see you hurt, okay? No matter how much pain you can take, doesn't mean you should.

[ PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT HER. Obviously!!! ]

[ Why is he acting like that? She narrows her eyes at him, trying to figure it out.

Makes a stab at it. ]

... So, you worked it out with her, yet?

[ Ah- ... ]

There's nothing to work out.

[ A beat. ]

Everything's fine.

[ Huh. Well, Light doesn't look too bothered by that prospect. Maybe it'll encourage people to stop just letting their weird little animals run rampant. ]

Sounds like you've got it under control, at least. Thanks for letting everyone know.

[ The initial moment after a Slow was always the worst, as reflexes switched gears and her perception brought everything back in-line. Still, it was a sensation she was at least used to, so she murmured a genuine 'Thanks' and shook out her arms before answering. ]

I think... that that's gonna come in handy. Here-- [ She shifted stances, and after a moment's concentration, pulled enough magic to form into an Esuna of her own. The magic bubbled in her hand for a moment, then dissipated with nothing to target. ]

Though, yours felt stronger than that.

Hmmm. Perhaps I ought to do that properly.

[Perhaps when ~~her writer is competent~~ there's enough seeds to give away.]

But it will be a resource to draw on, in the future. And I will try to keep it from eating anyone's pets.
