Probably, if it's something that anyone could use by picking it up. I thought there was more to it than that?

Well...that depends on what the more you think it is.

What do you know about materia?

That they're crystallized energy cores of some sort, pre-programmed with spells that they can be used to cast.

But that's about all.

That's about right. But- that's the thing too. They can be used by anyone, so technically anyone can be a mage if you have enough materia.

It relies on instead...a kind of spiritual energy that every living thing has- and some unliving things too. I think everyone on the Barge at least has some of that energy.

Ashton was about to use it, for example. And Alexei and Ethan could too.

There's no... activation word? Special technique?

Hm.

Nope. Just intent. There's usually a few seconds between spells too.

And...my set may be the most dangerous because one of them as a very rare materia.

May I ask what it can do?

Gives the option of using all known elemental spells.

Most only do one, with 3 tiers of potency.

I see. I'm not sure it's necessarily more dangerous than a powerful single-element materia, in terms of someone else getting their hands on it... but it could certainly cause problems either way.

I do think it's a good idea to protect them.

And I've been keeping them protected currently by keeping them secret, more or less.

Especially with people not knowing one of the spells is called comet...

Really, it's up to you.

I'll think on it.

Especially since I like sharing it with the others of my world.

Mm.

I do think that there are enough weapons on board that one more isn't a very big problem, personally. But thank you for letting me know about it.

Of course.

Most people wouldn't be able to use it for more then a few big spells, but...well, most people don't realize I can...

What's something people say from Earth? Bring down the pain?

I wouldn't know. That sounds like a Western saying, probably?

[He sounds perfectly cheerful about it.]

I worry about Wardens who don't have any way to take care of themselves. There aren't many of those, though.

It might be!

[She has no idea.]

Should we try to find those? At least to help them figure out options?

I'm not sure who'd be considered uh, well...unarmed. Maybe Samwise?

Maybe? I don't know him.

I suppose it would be a good idea to have a sort of... assistance network. In case of danger.

It might not be a bad idea.

I'm not sure if we should do a network call or have a meeting or something for that.

We could post something in the conference room?

Although honestly, it doesn't get used that often.

It really doesn't.

I think it's the coffee smell? Maybe?

I can make the call, warden filtered, with some sort of...I dunno.

Checking for coverage?

I think we just hate working together.

Yes, that should work.

That too. We're a bunch of ill tempered cats.

I'll get something up once things settle a little more.
