it's kind of shitty it's all about bribery to get something that'll help us for something we didn't ask for but if it's our only option, i'm considering it
Well, you're not wrong. If it's the only way, though, then we're going to have to work with what the options are for now. What I said before still holds, it isn't enough on its own, but... it could help.
I can try to help you, if you decide to make an attempt, but there's only so much I can do. I've already been working on something else that should be useful.
it's something to consider i might ask the rest of fall what they think and maybe some of spring unless you're going to talk as a group the thing is that we don't know all of the ways it works either but it's worth a thought what've you been working on? something you can tell me?
Go ahead and ask them. We might discuss it anyway, but considering it seems like a competitive sort of situation, some might be less willing to speak up around everyone.

The thing is, it's going to be less useful if too many people know it's a possibility. I've told two, and I would prefer if you kept it to yourself as much as possible.
I have a way to protect others. Only once per day and only for a short time, but it can stop a fatal blow if I use it right.
that wouldn't surprise me it's very winner take all especially when it's a bid we'll see ...what does that mean lucretia? like a one time thing? or is this just a thing you can do suddenly? like a power you bought back
A spell of mine, yes-- which is why I'm a little more limited in ways I could contribute right now.
[sometimes you are broke.]
But it isn't just one time. Once per day, but it also only lasts thirty seconds by default, and it will break if it takes a fatal strike. Upgrading it past that is possible, but it's going to take some time, I'm sure.
nice that's still something though and it's way better than a gamble it's a guarantee that we can strategize with thirty seconds can be a lot longer than you think did you ask about a price for an upgrade yet?
Not yet. I do know that, if what Chad said holds true, I should be able to reduce the time it takes before I can cast it again or strengthen the barrier itself. The latter seemed like the better starting point-- I had someone test its strength, and it can break early with sufficient damage.
It definitely is something, though. All this needs is a way to take advantage of the capability.
...thanks lucretia i need to decide which one's more important or if i have enough to offer to put in bids for both ...what do you think? which would you pick if you could only choose one?
If it were me, then I would choose the second, but that's only because I already have my barrier. I think they could both be well worth it, and
Well, as I said before, just being awake won't be enough on its own. The more people we can protect, the better, though all I truly have to offer in either case is the capability to try to help keep someone safe and alive.
i think i'm still deciding you're right, both are worth it but the situations are all dependent if you get something to help stay awake, you have to know how to fight to protect somebody if you get something to protect somebody, you have to find a way to use it on them in the moments they need protecting that's the whole problem

no sense in recharging it faster if it's not strong enough to hold up against an attack
are you okay?
