>>5463973Glancing closely at the moving target it seems much bigger than you initially gave credit for. Although, your attention wasn’t sharply focused on the supposed robin. So, you couldn’t accurately deduce whether or not you were imagining things. Deciding that it wasn’t worth the trouble, you merely brushed it aside and turned your attention back to the task at hand. You didn’t want to take any side trips or indulge in going off on a detour. A month was already pushing your limits.
At the same time, you couldn’t bring yourself to immediately follow the presence you’ve been sensing. Unlike Jump City, this was brand new territory for you, as well as you didn’t have a single ally to back up. So, to jump right into where the grimoire blindly without taking the time to assess your surroundings was practically suicide. Especially when you recall all the stories that permeate the city of Gotham. All the more reason that you need to think smartly and act coolly in the face of adversity.
Thus, you decided the best course of action was to become aware of your surroundings and acquire information via reconnaissance. Preferably do it quickly and quietly, no different than any other wandering traveler. Wearing nothing but a black long-sleeved crop top, matching black choker, white miniskirt, black socks, and white running sneakers. You already hold that part down, despite the boldness of your attire as you keep your backpack lodged around your arms.
It would be much easier storing inside of you through the rainbow elixir though. Unfortunately, that would mean using up one of your three slots for the power of dimensional storage via Absorption (Gray). You couldn’t afford to be wasteful or careless in what combo you would apply. Although you could swap out one color for another, it still took time and effort to cleanse you of a specific color without affecting the others. And even more, time applying a brand-new color without disruption.
Through your girdle, you can painlessly extract your divine blood and make the flasks necessary for your thirty-three colors. But again, acquiring the resources and applying them were two completely different challenges. Then there’s the fact that while the Pleroma was infinite, that didn’t mean your blood was as well. Sure, it recovered and replenished itself far faster than most living organisms, especially when consuming sustenance. You were still operating on a finite amount.
Reckless and/or excessive drain without rest would greatly weaken you. Both in your physical as well as mental constitution and prowess, including the effects of your power bestowing blood. While you never tried to reach that threshold of your upper limits. You held the strong distinction that death by blood loss was still within the realm of possibility for you. All the more important is that you choose carefully if not wisely whenever applying the three colors.
