[ He's glad not to see any sign of injury on her; he was a little worried there would be a horrible scar across her (or maybe he just can't see it), but since she appears well overall... It's easy to return the smile back at her. ]

Hey... [ He looks her over anyway when they stop anyway even though they should both look fine. ] You didn't take long.

Same goes for you. [Having Tyr right there with a healing spell right away certainly helped--not to mention having Estelle at home. She had to rest for a day or so, but she's back to normal now.

She does notice Tyr looking her over, though, so she reassures him.] You don't have to worry. I'm fine, okay? [Even if maybe she also glanced over Tyr, just because.]

[ And Tyr wasn't even really hurt - not anywhere as badly as Rita was - so he looked perfectly normal. His smile faltered for a moment when she reassured him, but this time, he knew she was. ]

I know... But... It was so bad before.

[It's good to see him physically all right, though she's still a bit concerned about how he was cursed on the weekend.]

But it's fine now. [Thanks almost entirely to Tyr. She smiles again, but then her expression turns a bit more serious.] Getting that rune was a good idea. With next month and all...

[ Being reminded of next month again, he turns sombre. He knows she's okay now because he healed her, and if he hadn't had the rune...it's still hard to say exactly what would have happened. ]

You need one, too. Even if you don't really use healing magic...

[She's sort of thinking the same thing--trying not to, but it's hard to forget--and she can't argue with him about that. It's the only kind of preparation they can really make...]

Yeah...I know. In case... [If something happens to Tyr again, or Estelle, or anyone.]

I was thinking I might attach that wind rune, actually. Or work out some similar spells for my blastia.

[ He nods, glad that she's thinking about this. He's tempted to tell her to attach the earth rune, too, because of how quickly her shield broke, but holds the suggestion for now. ]

You should try both. You'll probably understand the spells better after you attach it, and then you can work on your blastia... [ As far as he's concerned, the weekend proved they don't have the time to spare. ]

[She hasn't really been thinking about the earth rune, really. The wind rune has two things she'd like. Tyr's suggestion doesn't sound bad, either.]

That's not a bad idea. I've been studying the runes, but I haven't tried the spells for myself yet. And on the weekend...

I was thinking that I need a spell to stop someone without hurting them. [Since all of her spells are offensive--this is becoming a bit of a worry to her, along with being unable to heal.]

Mm... [ Given how often friends end up going insane and needing to be stopped, he agrees that a spell like that would be a necessity. ] Maybe you could find one like you used on Eagle, but that has a longer duration... When you put people to sleep with the wind rune, they're only in a light sleep...

It could become stronger if you practice it, though.

[They didn't have much choice against Eagle, but Rita doesn't know how she would've stopped Euphie if they'd been able to get to her in time.]

Of course I could improve it. [Rita has no doubt about that, even if she's still working it out.] But just how light? Like, they wouldn't wake up if you tried to tie them up or something like that, right?

[ Tyr isn't sure what they'd do for Euphie, either; he wouldn't want to hurt someone who's clearly not a match for either of them. ]

I don't know. I've never tried to do that before... But they wake up if they're hit. [ Which should make sense... But magic sleep would be great if they were unconscious. ] You could run some tests on that to see, too.

[And even Eagle she was sort of reluctant to use her more powerful spells against, but Euphie...]

[If they're hit doesn't sound bad, as long as they don't wake up by hitting the ground, but--wait. Rita raises a skeptic eyebrow to Tyr.] ...You want me to test if I can wake someone up by hitting them?

[ Rita is a better person than Tyr... ]

No. [ That couldn't have been a serious question. ] You should test how heavily the spell makes them sleep by...trying to move them or tie them. That's what you'll want to do after they're asleep, right?

[Or Tyr's tougher than she is...]

[It was totally serious. And Rita would do it to some people. Still, as good of a stress relief that could be, this is more logical...maybe.] Well, yeah...I wouldn't want them to wake up while I'm doing that, but it'd be better if it was stronger, or just longer-lasting. You know, until the end of the curse.

[ A little of both, maybe... ]

Yeah... That would be the best result, if you could manage just that... [ And she's the only one other than Luc that he could imagine being able to. ] If you're going to get that good, though, you'll need to attach it soon and get used to it first.

[Somewhere in between.]

[Tyr's right, of course. She still can't afford to buy a water rune, but the wind rune has healing abilities, and she can afford to attach it.] Yeah...I'll go back to that shop and do it. And I've started working on a formula for my blastia.

[After a moment, she continues.] Once I get it worked out, I'll show you how to do it.

[ Her mentioning the formula again makes him curious. Of course he can wait to see it, but that doesn't change the fact he wants to know more before that. ] What type of formula is it, exactly?

For a sleeping spell, or something like that. [Of course she doesn't mind explaining to him. If they can both do it, it might make upcoming curses easier.]

Oh... [ It's around now he realises she probably just wants the wind rune for its healing abilities. If she could make a formula stronger than Wind of Sleep, though, that would be amazingly helpful. ] Is that what you were working on before? Just now.

[She's sure she could make a formula before long--an improved one at that--but attaching the rune in the meantime isn't a bad idea at all, especially for the healing ability.] Yeah, that's right. It's a bit trickier than elemental spells...Offensive ones, I mean.

I didn't know they were that involved... Is that why you don't have many spells like it? [ He guesses. Aside from the one that restrained Eagle and the shield she created, he hasn't seen her use supporting magic. ]

It's not that I don't have any just because they're difficult or something. [There's other reasons...Like she always preferred hurting her enemies and she couldn't be bothered to come up with anything else when they worked just fine...until now.] Anyway, they're just different. And you actually have to worry about what you do to the target.

Right... [ He nods. If she's just killing monsters most of the time, there's only one thing she wouldn't want a spell to do. ]

... If they're more difficult, though, would...It might take a while for me to learn, wouldn't it?

Well...I don't really know for sure. You might pick it up once you see it, since you did pretty well with the other artes. [Recognizing a formula is generally easier than creating one from scratch, even if it's almost second nature to Rita. But the last thing she wants to do is put a cursed friend into a coma because the formula was too strong.]

[ This is why Tyr thinks a simple knock-out spell would be best... He's relieved that she thinks he might be fine with it, even if he still thinks it being different might trip him up. ] I guess we'll see how I do with it when you're done writing it, then...
