...I'd love to get involved with this.

[strongestcoward]

In what manner? Getting temporarily infected or getting a permanent case of the Black Bloods?

[esoteric_rose]

Permanent Black Bloods. 83

[strongestcoward]

Wonderful!

I would discuss further, but I'm just popping off for dinner and we can hash out some ideas later.

[esoteric_rose]

No problem, my info's up on the contact post, or you can just ping this journal!

[strongestcoward]

Well, might as well chat here! Forgive me if you're familiar with Soul Eater and this is unnecessary, but I want to type it out for the future anyway

[esoteric_rose]

Oh gosh, I never even knew the Blood could do that. If somehow that was combined with some voice in her head encouraging her to, there'd pretty much be no way she wouldn't be tempted.

As for what her using it would do....I'm thinking something along the lines of making blades or chainsaw blades out of the blood and using them to attack, since you can always use more chainsaws.

[strongestcoward]

Well, there's not exactly evidence, but it does modify people's bodies who use it fairly radically so I figure why not? It'd probably be weird and incomplete at first and would fade when the blood wasn't active. Thus forcing Grell to choose between the big dream and being an utter loon who can't carry on a relationship with anyone.

That's totally plausible, especially since that's practically a canonical use for the blood. Crona's partner is a living sword made from Black Blood who screams, making him vibrate so he cuts like a chainsaw.

[esoteric_rose]

Eh, if canon's iffy, I think I'd rather not, since it's a rather delicate topic. But a voice in the head would still be rather powerful, I think.

Lovely~ badass blood clothing and chainsaws. Insanity's a small price to pay for something like that.

[strongestcoward]

Okie dokie, we'll go with that! Will it be anyone in particular's voice, or just a voice?

Sounds good to me-she probably wouldn't be able to do full chainsaws at first, but as she develops she'd be able to do some crazy awesome chainsaw stuff.

[esoteric_rose]

Hmm, I'm leaning towards it being no voice in particular, so she'll be less likely to shut it out at first.

And that sounds perfect! I'm really excited for this plot to happen!

[strongestcoward]

Sounds good-although it should probably have some sort of connection to her issues, although it most certainly doesn't have to be a voice from her past or anything. Soul Evan's temptation thing is a little ogre in a suit and he's sure as hell not met one of those before.

[esoteric_rose]

Most likely it'll play upon her desire for strength or something like that.

also dear lord that icon
