Can you be close enough to humans to have that kind of bond? I mean, if it were me, I wouldn’t want that kind of intimacy with a stranger.

Yes. We were under some kind of spell. This was early June, if you want to corroborate.

[abyssale]

some people enjoy intimacy with strangers. i don't mind, as long as the other person is consenting and interested in it.

i believe you. why has no one warned against this?

[holyposition]

Other kinds of intimacy, maybe. But the blood from my veins? It's a big ask.

[ He doesn't necessarily enjoy that kind of intimacy with strangers, either. It's the Catholic guilt. But it's understandable, at least, not like giving up things that belong inside the body. ]

I can't speak for anyone else. But there's new horrors to occupy us every so often, they're probably worried about the next one. Watch out for the parties.

[abyssale]

you don't have to offer that intimacy to anyone if you don't like it. intimacy is different for everyone. blood may be a new kind of intimacy, but it's like any other. it is for some and it's not for some.

thank you for the warning.

and i will be investigating where the blood that's feeding vampires comes from, now.

[holyposition]

oh, no, I didn’t think you were trying to talk me into it. It's just a little tough to wrap my head around. I’d have to really love someone, I think, to want them to drink right out of my body.

You’re welcome. And I’m sorry for the interrogation. This is all still new to me. And disturbing. But I appreciate your openness.

I could help you look into it, if you want.
