hmm... I just solved one of the more annoying sideview battler problems in MV.. Passive States and Visual States can make it so when your character is in crisis HP, they don't go back to normal walk/wait when it's their turn. they stay in the crisis motion... neat.
I keep forgetting to ask the doctor. Last time I saw him was in the summer so the bruising was a faraway memory. This happens only in freezing temps, my legs are more exposed because of the coat's length.
