I'm presuming and perhaps hoping we're done with the Black Order conga line, for now.

So, I only wanted to say that my Circuits have un-fucked themselves to the point that I'm able to create healing potions--limited in both quantity and quality. Excellent for pain relief, decent for solving scrapes, bruises, and other inconveniences.

Considering 'other inconveniences' crop up at any given moment, I thought it was best to put myself out there as a slightly less incompetent healer than usual.

Let me know if I can help you, Professor.

[fionnuisce]

I think I can manage for a while. It's mostly just a matter of having the correct reagents and enough vials, the magecraft itself isn't something a Caster would find challenging.

[lancernexttime]

Probably not. But the magic here seems to be different from home, so maybe learning something new wouldn't be a bad idea.

[fionnuisce]

You raise a fair point. I don't know that I'll ever grasp the workings of magic here, not entirely. It's been difficult to comprehend, and I can only use what I know myself.

[scryption]

Circuits? Is that how you use magic?

[fionnuisce]

Yeah. Mages in my world are people with Magic Circuits running through their bodies like a second nervous system, essentially. Coming here scrambled something or other and I've been having difficulty utilizing some of my magecraft.

[scryption]

I'd heard that people have ended up here from other worlds, but not that their magic suffered for it.

I was born here, just not in this city, and my magic has remain unchanged.

[fionnuisce]

It seems like a common issue for people like me. A problem, but not a permanent one. I assume something just gets screwed up in the transition from one world to the next, I don't know enough of inter-universe travel to make a more educated guess.

Magic here works differently than I'm used to, so that seems like as good a theory as any.

[scryption]

That seems reasonable enough. I am no scholar, so I shall defer to your expertise.

May I assume your potions are more effective than those sold beneath the city?

[insert potion seller vines here]

[fionnuisce]

Hard to say, I don't know every single apothecary. They're definitely cheaper, for the low price of 'ask nicely if you need one and I have one'.

[gotbadblood]

That offer open to anyone?

[fionnuisce]

I'm not one to burn a bridge before it's even built. If someone's in need of my help, they'll have it.

[gotbadblood]

Alright, I'll take some then. Sounds like they'll come in handy.

[fionnuisce]

To be clear, my ability's still limited. I can't just drop a case of the damn things on you, especially if that would leave me without any in case of emergency. But if you're in pressing need of it, I don't mind handing over a couple.

[scryption]

You would give them away freely?

[Surely there's a catch.]

... Someone may take advantage of you.

[fionnuisce]

Within reason, I'm not quite that careless. [velvet is not getting a 12-pack]

But even taking that into consideration, I would rather someone have one and not need it than need it and not have it.

[gotbadblood]

Can you not make some ahead of time, in case of emergencies? I got plenty of room in my fridge if that's the issue.

[fionnuisce]

That's the plan, scarcity cones from the fact that I only just started.

Far be it from me to pry, but what do you need multiple for? Are you alright?

[gotbadblood]

Right now? I'm fine.

But my job entails fighting. Injuries are to be expected. Better to be prepared ahead of time, wouldn't you say?

[fionnuisce]

Give me about a week and I'll get you four. After that, talk to me when you need them, not before. Fair? It's not going to save you from mortal or serious injury.

[gotbadblood]

Sounds fair enough to me.

Thanks.

[fionnuisce]

Not a problem. We're all in the same metaphorical boat around here, so we're better served cooperating.

[gotbadblood]

For now anyway, yeah.

[Velvet why]

[fionnuisce]

Meaning what, exactly?

[gotbadblood]

The Black Order and Zodiac have a long history of not getting along. They have a common goal right now, but whose to say how long that'll last?
