i haven't seen rats like that since the trenches. and those crocodile things-- what are they called? manticores? anyone know where they come from?

i'd guess a flood in the sewer scenario, but i can't say i know space ships.

if i'm being generous.

[ Wow, tell it like it is. There's a definite delay this time, because he's not sure if this is a completely stupid mistake, and it takes him a while to commit to it. ]

How familiar are you with the other options? I know a few vampires have managed to find volunteers. Like, direct volunteers. Not just bagged donations.

wow this is SO LATE SORRY i thought i replied shhh

[prodigalbrat]

finding a regular volunteer? it's a little more than going to a blood drive and donating a pint. and here, money isn't an incentive.

[ there are other ways, of course. easier ways that josh would never condone. ]

NO WORRIES

[growling]

It's not easy, but it happens.

[ and the whole compelling b.s. isn't even on his radar right now. if it was, he would be chastising so hard, man. either way, there's a delay before the next text, because this is kind of a red pill/blue pill decision. ]

Do you want me to look into it for you?

[prodigalbrat]

[ josh doesn't even realize how good he is at that jedi mind trick.

good thing he doesn't know. ]

what do you want in return?

[growling]

Preferably for you to continue to not kill people.

[ yes, it's really that simple. ]

[prodigalbrat]

sure, why not.

surprise me.

[growling]

[ oh my god you are literally like the "cool" kid in high school do you ever stop with the coolness bs

basically if this was not text you'd be getting an eyeroll. ]

I'll keep you updated.
