[ The castle can be a happening place, even on more mundane days. This log is for random interactions over the course of the first half of the month.    Because not everyone is into parties, ok.

You are encouraged to start your own threads and tag around, and feel free to threadjack into any on-going threads that aren't specified as 'closed' in the subject lines since people can enter into rooms even in the middle of what's going on. WE ARE BIG ON THREAD-JACKING HERE. You can also specify 'single thread', meaning you want only one response for all participants, rather than multi-thread, where a number of different scenes/threads can be done as replies to the top prompt.]

[pathology]

[she got him to stop smoking, too!! ADDED BONUS. /preens.] Is that what you usually drink?

[bigbad]

[FOR NOW. He was done with that one anyway.]

Yeah. It's easiest to get. Sometimes I get cow or sheep to mix it up. [A beat.] Chicken's no good. Bird blood's too... I don't know. Sour.

[pathology]

Did you know vampire bats can only detect bitterness in blood? Like, they can't really distinguish any other taste. [/helpful. also her knowledge check for that was like a million i'm too lazy for math.]

[bigbad]

I'm not a bloody bat. [She is very aggravating.]

[pathology]

I know! I just thought it was cool. [WHY DON'T YOU SHARE HER LOVE OF SCIENCE??? loser. w/e they make it to the med center, and she starts going over to draw her own blood and put it in a little test tube.]

[bigbad]

[Spike grimaces.]

It's so much less appealing this way. So... clinical.

[pathology]

Well I don't know you well enough to want your mouth on me, sorry. [she hands over the tube once she's done.] Cheers.

[bigbad]

It's not sexy biting.

[Like Spike knows he's bitten exactly one living person since getting here and it was Des. ....ok, it might have been a little sexy.

He takes the tube and sniffs at it.]

Not much of a snack.

[pathology]

[unmoved by spike's pouty icon] It's a healthy snack. Fun sized.

[bigbad]

Like you'd know the first thing about what's healthy for vampires.

[pathology]

I know lots of things! I read!

[bigbad]

Do the vampires you've read about sparkle? Cause I hate to break it to you, love, but that's actually fiction.

[pathology]

Real books. Not garbage. Like, non-fiction. Are you going to drink it or not?

[bigbad]

No. I'm not some sort of bloody novelty taste tester for your entertainment. You try it if you're so bloody curious.

[pathology]

Um, no. Gross. And I thought you being a novelty taste-tester was the whole basis of you being here, so like, whatever.

[bigbad]

I thought I was actually getting something for my troubles.

[pathology]

Excuse you? You are!

[bigbad]

Barely. It's like offering me one M&M and making a big deal of it when you've got the whole bloody bag.

[pathology]

Except the M&M is like gold-plated and awesome and the best M&M you ever had. I mean, it could be, right? But now you'll never know.

[bigbad]

Pretty sure a gold-plated M&M'd break your teeth.

[pathology]

It's really thin gold, like the flakes in Goldschlager. Don't overthink it.

[bigbad]

I wouldn't drink Goldschlager either. What sort of nancy do you take me for?

[pathology]

Shut your mouth, it's delicious!

[bigbad]

So you drink it!

[pathology]

I do! Unless you mean my blood, which, ew. [she puts a lid on the sample tube and puts it down on the table. officially done with spike thx.] Anyway, I still need to find Andrew, so. I'm outtie. Leave a Yelp review about my blood if you like it I guess. Auf wiedersehen. [annnd FLOUNCE]
