This might seem like something of a ..jumbled metaphor, but, bear with me if you can.

Have you ever been missing something you didn't know was missing? Until you went looking for it, but it was there all along? It's. [He sounds conflicted.] Well. It's relieving, in a way. But also--not. As if it could vanish at any given moment, and if it went

Why the interest in blood transfusions?

voice;

[stressbaking]

N-n-no interest. I was just, wondering. I used to donate at home, with some frequency. But here is... well, different. [He's full of shit]

[xuffasch]

Different how.

[Oh my god lying is exhausting, and it's just Damian. Okay. Ned takes a breath.]

Different because... there are vampires here.

[xuffasch]

Yes, and?

( you can almost hear him shake his head. )

You do realize that, considering other things that exist here, vampires are hardly the strangest, right?

[stressbaking]

I didn't say it was strange. My waitress at the Pie Hole -- is a vampire. But she's really very nice. I just want to help in any way I can.

( damian nods; he knows shahrazad, but this information is new. )

Do you know how often and how much blood she requires? If it has to be a certain type, or from the vein? That might help you.

I suppose I could ask. If she's here, though, there are probably more vampires who have the same.. struggles.

And you want to start a blood bank for their benefit, or something?

[stressbaking]

I was led to believe there's a clinic already taking donations for such an end, but.. I don't think they're upfront about it.

[stressbaking]

That's probably true, though I'm not sure how I feel about accepting donations under false pretenses.

[xuffasch]

Well...I've actually spoken to another one who's here. And she seems to have friends. So perhaps people here can be accepting of such things.

[stressbaking]

That's why I want to h-help. They don't seem to be hurting anyone.

[xuffasch]

You really are just a genuinely nice person, aren't you?

voice; encrypted

[stressbaking]

You sound surprised.
