延迟
Yánchí .... Delay
A rune that can only be used in conjunction with another rune. Once inscribed, this rune will prevent another rune from triggering until a specified condition is met. This can be anything simple, such as X amount of time elapsing or physical contact. The only restriction is that the volatile nature of runes means that a rune's activation can only be delayed for several minutes at most before it will simply trigger on its own accord.

I figured it would lead to some interesting shenanigans such as the ability to inscribe the flashlight rune onto a piece of paper before throwing it somewhere in the distance. Once the flashlight rune triggers moments later, it could be used as a distraction or a way to draw everyone's attention towards it. At the moment, this wouldn't be possible since without the Delay rune, the flashlight rune would trigger the moment the rune was complete (thus giving away my initial position).
The drawback that the Delay rune can only last for several minutes (or X amount of posts) will also hopefully prevent someone from abusing it and will stop people from being able to constantly carry around a book full of prewritten runes.
胶
Jiāo .... Glue/Gum
Instantly makes the surface of a piece of paper or small object highly adhesive. While the bond is strong, the rune itself can easily be destroyed via heat or water.
