Hi! I hope you're all doing well today! It's difficult staying in isolation, isn't it?

Anyway. There's something I want to talk about.

It's my powers! I usually keep them hidden because they're kind of awful. Like. The dangerous and disgusting and just make people uncomfortable kind of awful? But I'm working on being okay with that and I know you shouldn't keep secrets from your friends. So I don't want to keep this from you guys anymore.

My anatomy's wrong. Not all that human when you get down to it (in my professional opinion!). Most everything's different because I'm a hematophage. Do you guys know what that is? (You can guess if you want! But it means I consume blood pretty much exclusively. Like a leech.) I've got tentacles that help with that, six of them stored up in my abdomen. But they're good for a lot of other things too! I think about using them all the time to get more done in the clinic or get around faster or things like that. I don't, though. It's sort of a secret. But I keep needing to use them here, so it doesn't feel like it'll stay that way in the end.

I guess that's all. Thanks for reading all this! I hope we can be closer now. 💖

You're going to be so proud of me! 💕

Thank you for listening! And of course!

When you say "pretty much exclusively," does that mean there are some things you can eat ~~and enjoy eating~~? Or no?

Oh. I can't eat! My body doesn't do solids. I can drink a lot of things, though! Even if I don't get anything out of them nutritionally.

That's SO crazy. Do they taste okay??

Sometimes! [...] I think it might be more about the experience than the taste, though.

~~So [...] the Yakult was okay?~~ Do you have any drinks that you like?

Black coffee's nice! Especially when it's cold out! Some tea and kombucha. Things like that. Strong but not sweet. I wish I liked sweet more, though, since all the cute drinks are sweet and that seems sort of unfair.

Good to know, good to know. Can you drink broth? Like savory liquids?

[...] Probably? I guess I'm not sure!

Should we find out?

I guess I've sort of dropped the culinary ball all this time, huh?

Let's find out!

I wouldn't say that. You didn't have a reason to cook all this time. But I like cooking and you might like sipping broth, so yeah. Let's find out.

Are you a good cook? That's so cool!

I'm okay. What I lack in virtuosity I make up for in enthusiasm. But I'm excited to see what you like!

I bet you're great! Don't people say you can taste the love that goes into food? That's probably true for enthusiasm to!

Maybe. But anyway, I think I'll start you out on a basic stock. [...] I need to go to Albany.

What's in Albany?

A supermarket where I can get the ingredients I need for stock. I need more dried kelp. I think the iron content in seaweed might appeal to you. Not sure though, we'll see.

That's really thoughtful! But don't go so out of your way on my account!
