[ooc: me and mine are safe and okay. i was out of power most of the weekend. asides from that and some plant debris, nothing major. thanks for your patience!]
[why the hell are you trying to read the notebook with your headblade sticking out?! sometimes his boyfriend can be a complete dumbass. he glances to the sloughing sound, noting the way the helm and chainsaw melt away down his skin. interesting that sometimes the blade(s) retract into denji's body and sometimes they seep off like liquid. both ways leave the guy with his usual emergence injuries until he heals up. maybe he should get a band to shove the half-devil's bangs back when he transforms. that way he won't come out looking as much like a horror film survivor. in battle? no problem. times like these? yeah...]
I wasn't planning on doing it here. [there's no technology to even make it happen, unless they want to use a bunch of clunky jars used to store sugary fruit and oiled vegetables in. hell no. using substitute liquids in their tests is a good idea, seeing if anything leaks on top of how sturdy the actual containers are.] Half-n-Half carries little metal capsules on his hero costume. Those won't break or burst as easily as bags or vials.
[but they're also harder to get into compared to throwing a proverbial ketchup packet into denji's mouth or breaking into a vial. then again, using them would be a conscious decision and katsuki knows the half-devil could bite right through the metal if he absolutely had to. they could take a beating without getting destroyed. lilith wouldn't have much issue crafting something like that for him; or they'd better not struggle with it...
bakugou crouches beside another patch of greenery, separating weeds from the shrubbery around them. he narrows in on a group of flowers and reaches for them. it's one from the nightshade family. toxic, but used in medicine for several reasons. a lot of plants fall into that category. he pulls out a bag and the knife again, then starts working on taking the plant from the ground. not a shrub this time, so he'll need to take the roots as well. once dug up and freed, he packs the bag with soil and inserts the plant, then closes the bag up, pokes some holes, and adds the bag to his collection in the sack. he rather doubts he'll be finding any opioids in this place.]
You should work on your long-range options for those fights. [whether that's lashing them with his bladed chains or even separating his chains completely to avoid getting shocked through them. but even using the chains as a flail would collect blood from afar. katsuki comes over when the mushrooms are called into question. he flips through the notebook, but there's nothing in there about this kind of growth, and the lady at the apothecary didn't say anything about it. yeah, he'll at least collect a sample or two for whatever reason. there are plenty of spores to use later.]
I'm your boyfriend, idiot. I'll be with you when you experiment. [granted that means collecting the blood will likely be worked into some chores they're doing anyways, but katsuki's going to be there for the checking. work that into training as well, so denji can see how quickly and efficiently the blood works on his recovery. even if it means popping out his chainsaws and sucking them back in multiple times. still, he's glad denji is leaning towards animal/beast blood rather than asking for a steady supply of human blood. it's fine in the heat of things for emergencies, but if it can be avoided, yeah.] Since it's better fresh, you can't use puddings.
