[Takeru's expression falters just a bit at the suggestion. He's gotten better at magic compared to when he first started, sure, but he's never tried to split his focus in so many directions before.]
That's not a bad idea, but my powers don't exactly work that way. [Really, though, Yachi's impressively practical when she's not panicking.] The lights aren't permanent, so we can't break them up.
[He gets back to his feet, dropping his focus and letting the fake coral fade away.]
Maybe I could still try, though.
[He's enough of an idiot boy to take it as a challenge, anyway. One by one, he creates a few smaller, more simple lights around the perimeter of the camp, sort of like points on a compass. He can manage that much for a while. Probably. Maybe.]
