[ Is this how intense it gets when a spellcaster is in the heat of battle? He wonders if his character is getting tired, if their limbs are growing heavy...For a moment, he recalls Evan and Leander casting the most destructive kinds of magic, from light to dark to fire and water, and questions their stamina if a simple fireball or ice trick in this game depleted so much of the SP bar. Leave it to him to overthink a game mechanic, but it does leave an impression. Now he's NEVER going to ask for magic help <3 ]
I see it! Cover me, I'm grabbing it!
[ All that jumping pays off because Roland reaches the drop off point of the floating ether faster than if he ran for it. His avatar glows momentarily before he sees his SP bar rise up, almost full! 88SP was better than nothing! He notices that it's getting pretty close to the end, and he grimaces. Tidus needed to keep shooting his arrows, but whatever health he was able to preserve, Tidus was down to an even lower amount. ]
Wait, let me do the same for you! I got items from the previous room, remember? [ There's some general fumbling around again, until he recalls which button combination will let him use items in battle. He succeeds and pulls up a regular potion, straight out of the jars he destroyed, and drops it to Tidus. But it's a little too close for comfort, and Roland is unable to time it in such a way that it's in a safe distance from the king blob trying to grab his avatar for damage. ] Dammit. [ He curses under his breath and tries to distract the big blog and its smaller, faster underlings with his weak melee strikes so that Tidus can get the potion too. ]
Go! Two more Freeze Rays will do this thing in, I can feel it! [ Don't ask him how he can feel it, HE JUST CAN. If Tidus senses some shifting next to him, it's also because Roland just changed positions, half-standing, half-sitting. ]
