Re: July 30th || The Hospital

In spite of Sparks' bravado, Ramza can see how drained the other man looks. Not good.

Luckily, Ramza has tried to compensate for lack of job skills with preparedness. He pulls an ether from his belt. He doubts the Red Scorpion will stop for a refreshment break, so he does not bother drawing near Sparks to hand the potion over for drinking. There is more than one way to skin a coeurl.

The little glass vial goes sailing from Ramza's hand and crashes into Sparks' head.

Ramza turns back to Jack and the Scorpion, a health potion at the ready should Jack require similar treatment.

Jack looks at Ramza like he's crazy for a second, did that actually work? This place is nuts. But he shouts back, "Save it!"

He's absorbing enough health from his Dark Knight attacks that he doesn't need it. Even a simple slash regenerates his health. He still doesn't understand it, and intends to have a very long talk with Chiaki when things are quieter. But, for now, he can only focus on the leg in front of him, hacking away again, again. Spells won't shortcut this, so he has to take it out on raw damage.

The potion smacks into the side of Sparks's head, catching him off guard. He's about to yell something at Ramza, when he can feel the effect of the ether kick in and he realized what just happened.

"Y'know, yer lucky I don't need to spend a spell on getting glass shards outta my eye."

He should really pay attention, though, as he looks up in time to skitter out of the way of another laser attack. His eyes go wide as he notices how close he was to getting fried for good, but is back in form fast, casting another Thunder Slash.

Sparks gripes about the potion, but Ramza shrugs it off. It worked, and that's what matters.

"Shout if you need another," he tells Sparks before ducking back around the Scorpion's thrashing legs to resume hacking with Jack. He picks a different leg so that they won't be in too close of quarters to swing properly.
