My name is Nehan-- I'm researching how medicine works here, and how to merge it with the methods I'm used to. If my research goes well, for instance, I will be able to act as a doctor and pharmacist, among other roles found here.

To that end, I'm requesting samples of blood from fellow Sleepers. I understand it can be quite personal, so whoever does not want to do that need not respond. Those who do, so I can perform the phlebotomy myself, and can privately send you my address, and answer questions you may have.

Whoever wants to help but doesn't want a needle in their arm, I still have a job for you, if anyone is interested.

[very straight to the point, almost unwelcomingly so. but at least people know what they're getting into if they decide to deal with him?]

Comments

[torpour]

I know how to make do with what I have. I've worked with less before.

My concern is that having a lot of blood drawn would have an adverse effect on us now that our blood has been altered, and my constitution would be in danger if I came into contact with too much quantities of blood in any room, no matter what safety precautions I would take. Just look at Lumenwood and the ministers.

but since the occupation requires working with blood, no matter how small of a quantity it is, aren't their current circumstances something they would've accepted right from the very beginning?

[torpour]

That's not for me to try and discern.

[ someone who wants to work with blood, but also wants to avoid corruption ... well, she's not one to judge. ]

do you need it fresh? i think i have a few vials around.

[torpour]

I prefer to handle everything. So no, the blood you already have just laying around will not do.

[traversal]

how fussy.

but very well, even though i'm not sure how it would make a difference.
can we do it at night?

[torpour]

[what a comment, from someone who has stalled this long and offered stale blood, like there's some attempt at trying to avoid needles. nehan is already wondering if this is even worth the effort. already he's deciding he doesn't want this person to know where he lives, with this much fuss.]

For the best results, I need to control what I can. I don't care what time it's drawn, as lonf as it's absolutely fresh when I have it, and not several days old.

[traversal]

all right, fine.

for someone who offered to answer questions, you sound rather unwilling to do so.

[torpour]

You have already asked questions, and I already have answered, and accommodated what I can. What more is needed from me?
