[@13org] No yeah the blocking's really cool, I did say that. Just pointed out I don't actually know whether that's legitimately possible but as a shonen fite thing? Cool shit, I dig it and I'd argue in favor of it, that's awesome. Please don't think that's an issue because it really, really wasn't. Again, [b]the blocking of the heat blast itself is really cool and not at all a problem for me[/b]. [b]The problem was I'm not aware of the size of the field so, because of the way things have gone, I assume the distance is large enough that getting there in time to stop the heatbeam from a dead start was implausible without some kind of power aid. So I asked about it[/b]. I said the teachers felt far removed because they more or less have been, they're standing off to the side watching and taking notes and generally not involved in the thing. It was kinda the point of the setup, to have the elders act like elders and watch the children play. I'd wait on GM judgement for it but, you know, I still stand by my view that your character outpacing the three people actively aware and standing closer to Heatman is kinda rushed. Your character can totally do her thing in like one more set of posts, you know? That's enough time for all the other characters to react. It's a fairly simple structure too: Brock is clearly the type to not listen to rules, especially when frustrated. Your character can start making her way over thinking of helping the students targeted by the heatwave. The students deal as they can (and yes, this does involve my character doing things) and by then Brock is up and looking for trouble. Before anything can go down, bam! Your character does her cool things and acts like a teacher and then Ezekiel can sleep at night because holy shit a teacher acting like one! Here! It happened!
