[The font is ...oddly very shaky! Though it is trying very hard to look Not That. There are some spiteful flourishes though.]

Would someone KINDLY explain to me why these disgUSTINGGGG sacks of flesh are built to be so COUNTER INTUITIVE and fragile??

IIIIIiiii would like to speak to the

[jesterlies]

Oooooh, whyever the assumption?? I'll have you knooooooow, that I was minding my own business and this body simply attacked ME.

[ephemeralflow]

Did it now? And how did it manage that? Does even your own body wish dearly to smack you in the face? It would not surprise me!

[ Vanilla tattles because it's funny and he's not too worried that Shadow Milk is gonna keel over and die. ]

He decided he needed to taste test various things like blood stains, in a very old abandoned building.

He has a tummy ache, I'm afraid.

[lilyberation]

( ... )

Please drop by the clinic. I'll have some medicine for him to take ready.

[purevanillacookie]

[ ... Let him suffer vs see his ex-wife vs giving her room still vs see his ex-wife...

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ]

There is no truly no need, I can mix something up if it becomes dire, but he is merely mostly grousing.

[lilyberation]

Vanny, what all did he sample in?

[purevanillacookie]

Nothing that looked toxic to my sight.

[ TOO toxic, the mold might have been a little, being mold. Sigh. ]

I will stop by for some medicine.

[lilyberation]

Regardless, it is his first time experiencing such things in centuries. It may feel worse than it actually is. Do you remember how badly the first scratch or scrape hurt as a child?

[jesterlies]

It was MY hundreds-of-years-old dried blood and I have EVERY RIGHT to taste it if I want.

[lilyberation]

You are an idiot.

[ephemeralflow]

[Fortunately, Timekeeper finds this too funny to be annoyed that Vanilla is butting in.]

My, it seems like "Knowledge" does not necessarily include common sense! Whoever would have guessed? [As if she can talk.] I suppose he should consider himself lucky to have you there, to ensure that it is an ache and nothing more.

[Honestly though? She's halfway to just coming over to tease Shadow Milk in person. If he's whining to the netbook like this, the in-person melodrama must be phenomenal.]

[purevanillacookie]

Alas, even if it was anything more than a mere ache, I would not be able to heal him! And given it is an ache and nothing more, I am inclined to let him suffer just a little to learn his lesson about keeping his tongue off of odd stains!

[ Please go tease him in person. ]

[ephemeralflow]

Even so, I doubt you would simply let him perish... amusing and deserved as it might be.

[Yes, she does think it would be hilarious if Shadow Milk just immediately bit it after arriving at the Grove. If there's one thing she can agree about, it's that he probably should suffer to some degree...

...and, all right, fine, she can't keep her nose out of this one. So she will be going to tease Shadow Milk in person, it's a quick trip to the inn on her scissors, after all. He might even sense her coming, recognize the way time shudders as she skips through it to seemingly appear in the lobby out of nowhere to begin looking for him.]

[jesterlies]

[Oh. Great.]

[He is in bed more or less, having taken some medicine from the Guardian after drinking half a bottle of dish soap. He’s not having a great night we’re being real, chat.]

He has no plans to alert her to his location, though perhaps his temporal signature is a beacon of its own.]

[Also, there is some scratching from inside one of the rooms.]

[quirkynote]

I, too, would've licked that.

[jesterlies]

FINALLY someone of culture.

[quirkynote]

Wasting blood is shameful, and if it truly lasted so long, then it should still have some use...

I don't really see the problem, other than your body not being fit to digest its components. ...And probable bacteria.

[jesterlies]

Exaaaaactly, and just about aaaaanything can be converted into a magical component, really. What better way to understand it?

It was all for the learning experience! I see you are so very bright yourself and understand the importance of ON HANDS learning!

[purevanillacookie]

[ Sobbing... HIS BABY GIRL!! ]

Oh, sweetheart, no, it's not healthy.

[ For his daughter, SM is fine. ]

[quirkynote]

For you, maybe.

[purevanillacookie]

[ Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. ]

Sweetie, it was very very old. Too dried. It was mostly a stain. Shadow Milk Cookie is

[ How does he explain him to her. ]

curious. It was less to put it to use and merely to see what it was.

[jesterlies]

Vanillyyyy

SILLY VANILLY

[purevanillacookie]

Yes?

[jesterlies]

Speaking of science, I think it might be FUN to do a little experiment.

[purevanillacookie]

Ah! Are you feeling well enough? Perhaps you should keep resting!
