Hi!

In our local playgroup, we can't seem to agree about a certain
situation. Here goes:

Methuselah A bleeds Methuselah B, who has a "major boon" in play. The
target of the major boon is Meth C. Methuselah B decides to burn the
major boon to force Meth C to burn the pool for the bleed instead of
him.

Can Methuselah C play any "reduce a bleed against you by X" type
reaction card to reduce the amount of pool burnt this way?

I suppose not, because he is not being bled, rather burning pool due
to a card effect, but then again IANLSJ.
Thank you for your answers.

Major Boon is burnable on a "successful" bleed. Therefore, the time
has past to play those cards that are normally playable before a bleed
is normally determined to be "successful" against a particular
Methuselah (such as stealth, intercept, boost, reduction, bounce).
Spying Mission burns at a similar time period, I think.

Correct. And also, as the original poster surmised, the bleed is never against
C, even though C will be burning the pool.
