the screaming's done without moving
Drabble for the current challenge ("hunger") over on tsubasa100. As usual, spoilers for the 120s. Fye gen.
Haemoglobin
Part of him assumed that it would somehow taste like normal food, like red wine or steak or bitter chocolate, a sensory analogy drawn somewhere between mouth and brain. It doesn't.
Blood tastes precisely like blood, warm and salty, with a sharp tang of metal. He does not enjoy the taste of it in the way he's always associated with food (though human food nauseates him now; the very smell turns his stomach) but rather craves it on some primal level that has nothing to do with flavour and everything to do with hunger.
He misses the taste of chocolate.

Was watching SPN last night, and that scene where Sammy got drunk and begged Dean to "watch out for him" and do what he had to? All I could think was "I've read this fic". Except there was more porn. :(
