imagination 6, video (around w/e you think lunchtime is)

[blitzcheer]

Hey, so, mission time soon. [ Tidus wears a flippant smile at that. Fun, huh? ]

Just wanted everyone to know if you need something to put your food in or drink bottle, there's spare lunchboxes and bottles going in the supplies me, Lightning, and Roland keep track over. We also got some food ready: a lot of it's bear-- real bear, not that other stuff we got last month-- but there's other meat and non-meat too. Plus, if you wanna come and help make more with some of the food we got this month, we can work on that. Make sure everyone's covered. Doesn't matter what team you are!

Speaking of, if any of the teams need any for their groups or food...masters or whatever, you take some too, alright? [ He grins and nods. ] Oh yeah- and you can talk to one of us if you need a weapon, like a sword or dagger, or just a pole to whack with. We have a couple to borrow out, but we'll want them back at the end.

Well, we'll want everything back, but you know. We don't have many, so it's best to see what the missions are first.

[ They don't have enough to lend out willy nilly. ]

Guess this is a good time to say too, [ since he's here already!, ] if you think you can make anything for supplies, like weapons or- whatever magic you have, let us know! Anyone who can help with food, healing, weapons or protection... it's all useful.

And if anyone's thinking about going hunting or collecting materials once we find out more, we have some Arms Bands that'll help for packing away. [ He raises a wrist, showing the one he's wearing now. ] We can show people how to use 'em. Then you won't be carrying anything on your back!

[ He pauses, thinking. Well.. ] That's about it... - oh!

[ His head was about to duck, but then he raises it again, looking into the camera! ]

If you wanna hop around with magic and help out on different teams when they need the extra hands, ask Spider 'bout joining Black Squad! She's cool, and she can send people wherever they're needed! And the more people helping, the easier it is she can move people around!

Okay -- see ya!

[ A small nod. ]

It was early, [ so he's not surprised that Zechs missed the conversations; Tidus just happens to prefer the mornings, ] but it happens before the missions. People get them - dreams. I don't, but ... they talked about a fire breaking out, a red sky. The planet taking a beating, or being...attacked? A natural disaster? No one knows. But there was screaming. Taking place in a jungle or forest.

[ Tidus pauses. And then- ] It's not much, but... we're trying to look into ways to prepare for that. Whatever it is. People on the ground already being in danger, or danger coming.

[zechs_isonfire]

[ Zechs had likely been already working out, he didn't pay much attention to the comms after it'd mostly involved harmless chatter for ages. Clearly he shouldn't have slacked off. ]

[ He went a little still. ]

[ God, but he wished he had Epyon. Tallgeese. Even just a Leo. ]

An attack from space.

What in God's name are they going to give us, that will prevent an attack from space. We'll be useless on the ground.

[blitzcheer]

[ An attack from space? Tidus wonders if it would be that, but then - the actuality doesn't matter more than the probability. Quiet at first, but taking in what Zechs says. ]

There'll be something around if it's that. A weapon on the planet? [ That'll be a change. ] Or- we're just expected to help get the wounded, fix some things, fight off whatever's around.

Terra was like that too, sorta. Purple had to help people in an underground city that got caved in on. Gyueran was fighting day and night. It's gonna be tough, but we've made it this far.

[zechs_isonfire]

[ A breath out. ]

Of course, we will do what we can.

It's simply frustrating to be so ill equipped for what we're sent to, but complaints serve little purpose.

[ He shook his head, and focused. He's got a few more questions, but first: ]

Anything else I should know about the Arms Band? Any limitations?

[blitzcheer]

I'd say wait 'til you're on a mission out in a desert without anything to put water in on the train, but I'm tryin' to stop that happening again.

[ Wryly, but ultimately meaning, he totally gets your frustration, dude. Absolutely. ]

Think you can only carry a few weapons in there at a time, but other than that... not really? I should show you how to use it though, get the hang of it. It sounds funny, but it's really just like...imagining somewhere, anywhere, that you wanna put your stuff to.

[ So: ] I always imagine it's going into a hole behind my shoulder. Nearby...but somewhere secrete. You know?

[ He's not very imaginative. ]

[zechs_isonfire]

Yes, that sounds ... not ideal at all.

[ A brief grimace. Who was running this thing? ]

[ Volunteers, that's who. And most of them likely weren't military. So. ]

[ He nodded. ]

A demonstration would be helpful. Thank you.

... I see, so, I simply use my imagination, and the ... magic of the Arms Band handles the rest?

[blitzcheer]

[ A nod! ] Yeah, how 'bout we meet and I show you? It's not complicated. I can even show you with my own band. I'm hanging out on the second floor music carriage, if you want to.

[ Or they can do it later, nbd nbd. ]

[zechs_isonfire]

[ It's not as if Zechs had a lot going on, did he? ]

I'll head to you. See you in a few minutes.
