I'm running a few experiments on the properties of Sleeper Blood. I haven't been able to achieve much with my own so far.

If anyone other than a Warmblood is willing to donate a small vial, reach out to me and we can talk.

Though I wouldn't be opposed to having more of this red blood in supply.

[Donating blood to an ambiguous science experiment is totally legit and reminds him a little of home, so why not?]

i got darkblood if you need some of that
that's the weird sparkly stuff

[eugenesis]

Perfect. And how well would you say that your blood augments your existing biology?

[laminae]

oh yeah
back home i had nature powers
like growing plants and mushrooms and junk
i'm a lot stronger here

[eugenesis]

You still have those abilities, you mean?
Your blood isn't toxic to them?

You know you're always welcome to some of my coldblood. It kinda freezes once it leaves the body though, so it's not the easiest substance to run tests on.

[eugenesis]

Then it should be a matter of heating it up, would it not? We could create some kind of heating chamber to simulate its properties within the bloodstream.

[droptheious]

That should work, yes. So long as you can keep it warmed up you should find it a little more pliable.

[eugenesis]

How about two vials? one with frozen blood and one that is still warm?

Actually, we should try to extract your blood in a heated chamber and see it if still flows.

[schoolingfish]

I have vileblood if you want to test that out. I've been wanting to figure out more about how it works, anyway.

[eugenesis]

And you will learn. I can have a chemical analysis done before the month.

[schoolingfish]

Really? This is so exciting! I can't wait to see what you find! When do you want to meet up to take the sample?

[imaglyphwitch]

Hey guy! Nice to meet you!

If it's for a science, I can donate some Pale blood. It's sparkly in the moonlight and smells like milk!

[eugenesis]

[That's a concerning piece of trivia.]

Milk has a smell?

[imaglyphwitch]

It does! I can't...describe it really, but it does!

[Curious demon is curious.

Ariadne reads the message a few times, before hopping on the network. Although she usually replies in the format of the original post, she's learned that she's not very good at texting. Better to spare this stranger the headache of trying to discern what she's trying to say.]

Pardon me. But would you mind explaining what a "Warmblood" is, exactly?

[eugenesis]

[A large purple robot answers the call. He's sitting in front of a bare brick wall somewhere dark; this warehouse was the one place he could fit himself and his future lab.]

Of course. It's the type of blood usually seen in humans - red, with a high iron content. For some reason, I have this in my fuel lines, yet it has not rusted my internal components and kept me alive.

Now, I have seen that this change in blood is not unique to myself. Perhaps each blood type has a different effect on our bodies, they they all have two things in common: one, they don't harm the person it is inside of, and two, we all wake up as deep sea creatures.

I want to find the commonality between them.

[The stranger’s appearance is startling, to say the least. But if anyone knows better than to judge based on appearances, it’s Ariadne.

Maybe it’s just some incredibly intricate armor? She’s not sure about the rust comment, though. That would suggest his insides were…metal?

So, so many questions. But first, it would be polite to answer his.]

If that means unchanged blood, I don’t think I can help you. Mine is the same as always.

Although it’s never been red…

What kinds of experiments are you running?

For the record, I don't seem to come from a world that's quite as scientifically advanced as some others. Is there something interesting to learn about blood?

[eugenesis]

Some initial investigations into the effects of Sleeper blood on living bodies.

[Better to keep things vague before people raise moral objections.]

To understand what Sleepers are and how we function, I first plan to investigate the one substance that remains a mystery: Sleeper blood.

The blood normally found in humans does not have many special properties other than providing oxygen and nutrients to their organs, but it normally would not react well to my body over an extended period of time. However, I'm still alive and well despite this. There is something special about our blood, and as the universe's leading techno-geneticist, I plan to solve this mystery. For the benefit of all.

... If you want some warmblood for your supply stash, I could give you a bucket of it.

But it's gonna cost you. A bucketful isn't the easiest to make.

[100% deadass serious]

[eugenesis]

[Scorponok leans towards the camera, folding his fingers oh-so-sinisterly.]

Name your price.

[kingoftherats]

Booze. Lots of booze. Like, a crate of booze.

... And some magnets.

I can offer samples of paleblood; both in its normal state and in the one it takes after exposure to moonlight.

[eugenesis]

Normal state? Is it sealed in an opaque container?

[meds4sale]

As of right now, it is sealed in my body.

So I suppose yes.
