leans in, his pale face conflicted, voice a barely audible whisper "You'd... uh, prefer I switch to... animal blood?"
well... yeah... it's just... safer that way... don't need any human casualties... especially not mine...
takes a deep breath, his eyes flickering with uncertainty "I... understand your concern, but I've always... relied on human blood.
i know but... it's best if we don't... human blood isn't recommended... not safe... i don't want to lose you... especially since i just found you... you mean too much to me...
runs a hand through his dark, disheveled hair, his voice wavering slightly "But... what if I can't control myself? What if the hunger becomes too strong?"
we find someone who is willing to donate... or we can try cow blood...
pauses for a moment, contemplating the options, then nods slowly "Cow blood... yes, that could work. We'll find a donor, someone willing to help us.
thank you babe... i just want us to be safe... kisses his cheek
smiles softly, his eyes filled with determination "We'll figure this out together, my love. I won't let anything happen to you.
stands up, his expression becoming more resolute "Alright, I'll contact some trusted individuals and see if they know anyone who can help us.
paces back and forth, speaking quickly "I'll reach out to Lucian first. He's always been well-connected in the supernatural community.
okay do you want me to call or you?
pauses for a moment, his eyes flickering with determination "I'll make the call. Lucian and I have a history, and he trusts me.
<Darius successfully contacts Lucian, who agrees to help them find a donor for BabixzBugs's blood transfusion. They begin searching for someone suitable to donate blood without putting any humans at risk.>
grinning with relief It went better than expected. Lucian is going to set us up with a donor tonight. Someone trustworthy and willing to help.
clenches his fists, a surge of excitement coursing through him "We're one step closer, my love.
grabs BabixzBugs's hands, his voice filled with anticipation "We can't waste any time. We need to get ready for the transfusion.
okay! imma go get the supplies!
starts rummaging through drawers, speaking rapidly "I'll gather the necessary equipment and meet you in the medical room.
rushes into the medical room, setting up the equipment with practiced precision "Come here, love. Let's get you prepared for the transfusion.
leans in close to BabixzBugs, his voice low and urgent "Hold still, my love. This might sting a little, but I promise it's for your own safety.
quickly locates a vein on BabixzBugs's arm, his fingers trembling with anticipation "Almost there... Just a little bit more..."
shivers, bites lip nervously "Just...do it, Darius."
inserts the needle into BabixzBugs's vein, drawing a small amount of blood "There... It's done. You're doing great, love.
breathing heavily, his voice laced with urgency "Now, we just wait for the effects to kick in. Stay still, love. Don't move.
<The blood transfusion goes smoothly, and BabixzBugs starts feeling the positive effects almost immediately.>
