Caption: Figure 8.

X-ray luminosity (top) and photon index (bottom) derived from the X-ray fit of each ToO observation listed in Table 1. The full posterior is shown as a distribution, while the points represent the median, and the error bars correspond to the 90% HDI. The X-ray luminosity remains consistent across all five epochs within the uncertainties. The shaded area corresponds to the results of the fit to a stacking of all observations, using a simple power-law model.
