in nearly every ff game, there are points where not having enough of that one item can cause problems. usually they cure abnormal status or low hp. sometimes it can get kind of silly though, because you might have two shrunken characters with a petrified one. how do they carry them? how do they carry them when they're normal size actually?

zidane, freya, vivi, and dagger let their stocks of soft run low to save money. but when a bandit amubushes them with confuse and mini magic, vivi turns garnet to stone before he is cured, and zidane and freya are shrunk. the bandit is taken care of, but now they have to figure out how two tiny people and a small black mage can carry a princess who just trebled in weight and isn't moving anytime soon...

oh, i decided to make tents like real tents instead of the in-game ones, but mini only wears off rather than the tent curing everything. mainly because the tent would collapse if garnet turned back and she'd be annoyed if she had to stay standing all night i'd imagine...
