[ambiography]

Reasonable enough, I'd think.

[she nods at that, mulling it over for a few moments.]

Just-- out of curiosity. You asked for a particular benchmark. What would you call the upper limit? This, or something else?

[inaccordant]

Hm... I don't think you could upgrade it to the point where it would be completely unbreakable, no matter the attack. So, somewhere below that.

[ambiography]

I'll consider it, then, but for now I think just making sure it lasts the duration would be a good starting point.

[she considers a moment, before she continues.]

Just so I know for later, how far do you think the time between uses could be reduced? Half a day, not quite that much?

[inaccordant]

[hmmm]

Half a day is probably the absolute lowest, for powers that normally require 24 hours between use.

[ambiography]

And what would we be looking at for that?

[inaccordant]

Six or higher, most likely. Don't take that as an exact quote just yet.

[ambiography]

I'll bear that in mind.

[another few moments of consideration follow.]

You don't have to quote me on this if it is possible, but I've been wondering. It was mentioned we could try to make exchanges for information-- is there any chance we could manage to get a better idea of just how vouchers are obtained, because if I'm being honest with you, Chad, the math is a pain in our asses at the moment.

[inaccordant]

[he pauses, thinking.]

... I'll have to get back to you on that. The only info that I know for sure you can buy with vouchers is the limited weekly piece.

[ambiography]

That's better than I expected, actually, so- do let me know if you find anything out.

[she'll wait on that one.]

For now, I think I'd like to strengthen the barrier first, and then if I find a need to use it more often I'll ask again about lowering the time.

[inaccordant]

Right now, you mean?

[ambiography]

Not immediately, no. I might hang on to it until a little later in the week this time.

[just in case important shit comes up and she needs to help someone out-- she does still have it in its base state already, so that's something.]

But I'll be taking care of that prior to Thursday.

[inaccordant]

All right. It's yours to decide, after all.

[ambiography]

Then I'll message you about it this Wednesday, most likely.

[she is not getting up, though, with that part of the conversation taken care of-- lucretia just glances to one of the boxes.]

Do they not give you enough shelves, Chad?

[inaccordant]

I don't see a reason to ask for what I don't need.

[ambiography]

You barely have a floor.

[YES, YOU NEED SHELVES.]

[inaccordant]

I've managed.

[ :/ ]

[ambiography]

Let me guess. You know where you've left everything, so there's no need for you to do anything about it.

[inaccordant]

That, and I won't necessarily need everything during my time in the dorm. If it's still packed, it's easier to move it again.

[ambiography]

You could still stand to make the place more liveable-- I'm sure you could get a little help packing it all back up later.

[inaccordant]

I'd rather do it myself.

[ambiography]

-yes, that's more or less what I expected.

[chad.]

[inaccordant]

[:pensive:]

... They're my belongings, so they're my responsibility. Besides, it ensures they won't get mishandled.

[ambiography]

Is that only caution, or are that many of them sentimental?

[inaccordant]

Some of them I can sell if I need the money.

[ambiography]

I suppose that's understandable.

[she's peering at some of the books, though, curious.]

What do you usually prefer reading?
