ANONYMOUS TEXT @ANONYMOUSSPIDER

[vivisexual]

I feel like being such a small group we're missing out on the potential of an anonymous message board, so I'm making it happen!!

What secrets or intrigue are people dying to get off their chest? Who's secretly dating? Who do you wish were secretly dating? Do you have a dark secret that's eating away at you? (°ロ°) ! You can vent here, consequence free!!! I want to know what everyone's getting up to behind closed doors.

It's fully anonymized, so you can be as honest as you want. Or not! I'm not opposed to starting baseless rumors. Have fun ♡ ～('▽^人)

[Feel free to follow my lead and have Google Docs' style anon ids if you like, just so characters who who's saying what.]

Why, I know him quite well.

I love how that's technically not a lie

[vivisexual]

You must know the story then. Consider me curious! Could you share?

;)

[sanguivorous]

It's a rather simple story, but an impressive one. He was quite famished one night, you see, and went out looking for a meal, coming upon a bear.

He had never had the chance to have a meal so big, so he threw caution to the wind and leapt upon the beastie. The fight was ferocious but short, and what little blood the bear had spilled from him Astarion drank twofold from the bear.

[vivisexual]

Oh, a vampire?
I didn't know vampires could feed from animals. Unless he's also a bear.

[sanguivorous]

He is far too graceful to be a bear.

But, yes, it's about the life essence from the blood moreso the blood itself. However, the more sentient the being the better, so humanoids are more, shall we say, satiating.

[vivisexual]

Interesting! So different kinds of blood taste different to vampires too.

[sanguivorous]

Aabsolutely. Take the bear versus a human: while deliciously fulfilling, the bear is still akin to drinking a rank beer and the human a perfectly aged red.

[vivisexual]

I see!!

Do some people taste better than others? I've never gotten to try human blood.

[sanguivorous]

What one consumes or imbibes can change the taste, as can any magical afflictions one may be under. Simple bias for the person may affect it as well.

[Taryon's blood is effectively no different from Tav's, but tastes so much better to him after all.]

I would assume from your line of questions you are not a vampire, however...

[vivisexual]

I see, so some of the same factors as an animal would have, plus some more magically inclined ones...

And correct! Though I have eaten animal blood plenty and absorbed the blood of others through different means.

[sanguivorous]

"Absorbed"...?

[vivisexual]

Yeah. My friends and I have a special power called hemoanima that lets us absorb the blood of vanquished enemies to increase our power.

[sanguivorous]

My, how delightful. Sounds similar, just with less digesting.

[vivisexual]

Exactly! I suppose it's more efficient, but I feel like drinking from someone's neck is far more romantic than what we do.

[sanguivorous]

The romanticism entirely depends.

It also depends on how you "absorb" the blood in the first place...?

[vivisexual]

We just sort of stab them with out infusers? That killing blow draws out all their hemoanima and leaves them mummified husks.

[sanguivorous]

You don't even rub the blood into your skin?</span?

[vivisexual]

Is that something you have to do??

[sanguivorous]

I do not. However, I would have assumed absorbing someone's blood would require it. Now what you're describing sounds much less fun.

[vivisexual]

That's what I'm saying. It just sort of splatters everywhere and then the power gets... sucked up, somehow, in a metaphysical sense. I'd explain better how it works if I knew, but our commanding officer was killed before he could explain properly how it works.

[sanguivorous]

And all that blood just remains on the floor??

[vivisexual]

It's best not to think too hard about how and where the blood goes!
