Downtime

Downtime is when the party rests between dangers. Each PC makes two downtime moves and can recover while developing character scenes.

The party chooses a short rest or long rest. You can take up to three short rests before the next rest must be long.

If a short rest is interrupted, it gives no benefits. If a long rest is interrupted, it grants short-rest benefits instead.

Downtime can include Work on a Project (often using a countdown). The GM also acts during downtime, gaining Fear and potentially advancing long-term countdowns.

Rests also refresh features/effects based on their wording: per rest, per long rest, or once per session.
