Okay!!!' Fine!!!!!!

This is awesome.

I'm tired. Night.

Sure.

So I'm right? Or wrong?

*Is behind Ruby and slows down the flow of time around her*

By the way, here this would be quite simply reversed with relative order. This flow of time is chaotic relative to the normal flow of time everywhere else.

EDIT: Also I have no idea how this world wooorks.

But she'd do it slowly =P

It's the kingdom of Fiore, a land of magic and wizard guilds, among normal people. Wizards go on quests to earn money, and each practice one type of magic. It can basically be anything- for example, Ruby would probably use some sort of order magic. All of our powers will be toned down, and once you run out of magic power, you can't use it anymore.

Hmm. Weird. I suppose I'll just write for the time being. :P
Also, if time slowed down for Ruby alone, she'd be able to do much more than the others could while her flow of time was slower. What you did was literally less than useless for Unity, it would actually be worse for him.

Not really. If she's moving slower, then she's also thinking and acting slower.

Then technically: (trying to think of a way to word this): She's thinking and acting more slowly in comparison to the outside. But her slowed down thinking is proportional to how slowed down time is. Thus, if it would take her 1000 milliseconds to reverse the slowed flow in real life, and time was slowed down by two times, thus causing her mind to also be slowed down by two times, then from her slowed down brain functions, it would still be 1000 milliseconds. It would be 2000 milliseconds inside the slowed down time, but that 2000 milliseconds would be 1000 in the regular flow, and thus technically it would be the same amount of time either way.

Unless of course she moved slowly in the perspective of everyone else in which case you would be making paradoxes.

Not really. If it's slowed down for her, it takes twice as long to actually activate it and cast it.

Let's look at it this way. There are two different scenarios for this: 1. Her brain operates at the same speed in her perspective, thus allowing her to do more things in the slowed time flow, or 2. Her brain operates slower in proportion to how the time is slowed.

If time is slowed down by two (1 second in normal is two in slowed): If 1) is true, she'll be able to do twice as many things in the slowed down time as in the outside time. If 2) is true, her brain will be moving half as fast as normal, taking her two seconds in the slow time. Basically: 2 seconds in slow time occur in 1 second in normal time. If it takes her 1 second at normal brain speed, and her brain is moving half as fast, it takes her two seconds in slow time.

Yeah, situation 2.

Dynamics said
Yeah, situation 2.

So then the slow-time had literally no negative effect on her other than delaying her in real time for the split second it would take to cast the spell. So she wouldn't be able to respond to anything else while she cast the spell.

Yeah. It kicks her out of the fight for a bit. That was the point.

A bit being ~0.5 seconds.

Depends on how much he slowed her.

Dynamics said

Actually, no. If he slowed her by three times, then her brain is slowed by three times. If it takes her 0.5 seconds to do in real life, it's going to take her 1.5 seconds in the slowed down time. 0.5 seconds in real life is the same as 1.5 seconds in slowed time. Thus, by simple algebra, no matter how much he slows down her time, it'll only be 0.5 seconds passing in real life. In fact, since her brain is slowed down, it'll still feel like 0.5 seconds since her brain is processing what's happening three times slower.

No, because she acts three times slower, the attack won't actually exit the slowed down time until she performs it. Time doesn't progress "as if" she would've done the attack outside of it. It just basically makes her a really slow Ruby.

I'm not saying as if. And yes, that's what I've been implying. The attack exits the slowed down time when she performs it. She acts three times slower, in time that's three times slower. She takes 1.5 seconds because she's three times slower. 1.5 seconds in the slowed down time pass while 0.5 seconds pass in real time. At 1.5 seconds in the slowed down time, or 0.5 seconds in real time, the attack is finished, and time is reverted to real time. Let me make a chart just to demonstrate this.
Action_____Slo-Time___Real-Time
Begin spell_0.5 sec_____1/6 sec
Finish spell_2 sec_______2/3 sec
Real Time is obtained by using the ratio 3 seconds in slow time to 1 second in real time, or 6 half-seconds to 1 second.

Of course, what you really want to do could be accomplished by just slowing down her brain instead of slowing down time. :P

EDIT: Although in retrospect, her mental wards are strong enough with her enhanced power to keep the effect from applying to the rest of the collective mind, thus allowing another Lord to fix it fdslkjfdslf
