When curing aeon you drink phlegmatic right? Is there some kind of crazy delay? Or if you are afflicted with it and you do something else after you drink it does that mean it won't be cured? I want to know so I can code it into my system.

Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure phlegmatic is the cure, think reishi cures it at well. They way aeon works is that when you enter a command, there is a set delay before it happens, and if you do anything else in that time, your previous command won't ever happen, and you'll have to wait the time again before the second command goes through.

A decent way of handling aeon is when you get it, make your system stop completely, and cure it manually. (Make sure you can start it again in case you were tricked with an illusion).

Quicksilver provides a one-time defence against Aeon, but has a delay to put up. So, when someone tries to aeon you, you can reflexively drink quicksilver, and if you get the "You move sluggishly into action." message from the "drink quicksilver" command, you can turn off your system and send the "drink phlegmatic" command. You might want to also check if you know you are anorexic, and instead send the command to smoke your coltsfoot pipe (which you'd better hope is lit) rather than drinking phlegmatic.
