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.

Yeah, no kidding.

[kabe]

Do you mind if I come over to where you are? I'm going to cast a spell on you and then heal you to show you what I can do.

[enthunder]

Thought about going with Blue? They're pretty short-handed nowadays, next to the others.

[ She's not too fussed if she hasn't, but she'll at least try. ]

[shockinglycaffeinated]

Has it really gotten that bad? I knew they'd lost people, but I'd assumed they'd been replaced by now.

[sonoflucis]

Yeah, when I’m not sleeping.

[sonoflucis]

No. I wish it was. I was never as strong as my dad.

[it was frustrating. How was he to carry on his father’s legacy when He was so weak? Still, he could feel more power flow through him. Enough to keep going.]

Thanks. That’s a pretty handy power.

[wisdominshadows]

I'm afraid I haven't.

Being 'good with plants' might be the wrong talent for the circumstances- this one can be a bit troublesome when not kept in check. But I suppose a goddess is unlikely to be harmed by it....

[laurefindil]

"Most definitely. I will get started on the parts I can right now," Glorfindel told her. "Please contact me if there is anything else I can do to help? I spent the last 3000 years serving the pre-eminent Healer of our people in Middle Earth. My own powers are also quite good helping people who suffer from wounds of the mind or the spirit, as well."

[unfavorableinstigation]

[Nita scrunches her face up.]

Kind of unfair, there. Wouldn't talents passed on through generations get more concentrated?

[That was wouldn't as in 'general tendency', rather than shouldn't as in an admonishment for not having that be the case here.]

It's come in handy more times than I can count!

[When you know someone - or something - long enough, it stops mattering whether you keep score.]

[enthunder]

[ Ouch. ]

... Have you thought about going with Blue team on the next mission?

[enthunder]

[ See, she had meant in general, but then he goes and says something like that.

And now she's put her pen down to give him a Look. The Look being that of someone who's used to being on the other side of that dismissive kind of attitude. ] Inigo...

that was glorious

[enthunder]

I've got a manual for it, too...

[ Too late, she's already reconsidered and crossed it off the list. Too much investment. ]

[blitzcheer]

I'll read the manual! [ First, he's getting up onto his feet.

Or really, rather- ] Maaaybe it'll be good with some training first? There's a woman-- Cass, I think? She was with the army. There's a few army people here, now that I think about it.

[ Like. Two? Anyway. ]

It wouldn't be bad asking them what'd be good to equip or get people to learn, right? Everyone I was with... we had our own speciality we were good at, and we got to practice off fiends a lot.

[ Waving a hand. ] I'm worried I won't be able to give a good opinion.

[enthunder]

Last I checked, Blue's got maybe fifteen people. Which seems stupid, given they're usually set to protect somewhere important...

[enthunder]

[ YUNA....................... No, you know what, that's fine. It'll give her an idea of her offensive power, too. ]

Come on over. I'm in the carriage that just looks like a normal train.

[adropofsunlight]

Blue Team? I didn't think about it no. I didn't think about moving teams.

[kabe]

( it doesn't take long for yuna to show up and approach lighting, offering a bright smile and wave to the other when she's near. with a soft bow of her head, she reached out for her sphere grid and transformed into her dark mage outfit.

once transformed, she held her staff towards the other and smiled. )

Have you heard of the spell 'slow'? It won't really harm you or anything, but it will make you move slowly. I figured this would be safer than trying 'Berserk'.

[flatteries]

[ Uh oh.

He totally knows what that tone means, but tries to awkwardly laugh all the same. ]

Yes..? That's my name, don't use it too much!

[ Although he's also aware.. that this probably isn't going to work with Lightning of all people. So he should probably elaborate a bit more. ]

Really. I mean it though. I'm used to a lot. We have a lot of people more vulnerable than me on this train, they need help first.

see NOW she'd call him orz

[enthunder]

She shrugged, a faint smile briefly appearing. "I'll keep you in mind, but sounds like you're managing yourself just fine."

[enthunder]

She might be able to help get it to... behave? [ Is that the right term here. ]

[enthunder]

Might be time to do another check on what people can do. I asked a while ago, got some good answers... But talkings's not reliable on its own. Maybe we need to spend some time puttin' everything through their paces.

[ Hm ] Cass, you said?

[enthunder]

Ah, not moving so much as... I've been thinking, there's no penalty for doing another team's mission, and Blue is half the size of any other team...

But if you've got people you wanna be with on Orange, don't worry about it.

[blitzcheer]

[ A nod. ] Blonde hair, about your age. She was asking about getting guns made and training people with them. But there's the people who run training sessions too, [ he adds, widening that particular net, ] so if you're thinking about getting more active with it...

[ Well. Might get a few hands to help there. ]

i was today years old when i realised ffxiii doesn't have the berserk status effect

[enthunder]

[ She doesn't wave back exactly, but she does lift a hand, and offer a quick smile. Close enough. ]

What does Berserk do? [ She's already nodding assent to being Slowed, though, and bracing herself. ] Go ahead.

[enthunder]

It's not a-- [ Light doesn't know the term 'zero sum game' but that's the concept she's reaching for. ] --a competition, with your health as the prize. Helping you doesn't mean they can't help someone else.

[ She lets him off from the Look, but only to close her eyes and stifle a sigh. ] I have enough of this with the kid, I had to march her over to medical because 'not bleeding' was fine for her.
