hey so quick question
how do I explain why I bleed ink to my boyfriend

-yes he's already seen it
-I was cutting up vegetables and scratched a finger
-it'd be great if someone could give advice relatively soon because I don't know how long 'I need to lie down and then I'll talk to you about it' will work, he's still panicking he's just not demanding an answer right this second

thanks for the help

Hypoxemia, kidney disease, hemophilia...?

well that's a pretty unique problem
why do you bleed ink?

[maidofmistakes]

Oh, no... And he's not forgetting?

[commandertoolbelt]

genetic mutation?

[me_matey]

first of all how u gonna explain it to ne1 else?

[maskreant]

Retrospec.

i think that covers it all, right? if it isn't Retrospec, then i think you need to go to the doctor.

[explodosafe]

I guess the situation is a bit too serious as that you could just say that you've god blue blood?

But yeah, seconding what somebody else already said. "Retrospec" is usually the easiest way to explain all weird stuff in a single word. Are you okay?

[If his blood has turned into ink, does that mean that his heart is pumping ink now too? Does ink work as a good blood replacement?]

[playdolls]

Aren't you the one who heals when you eat ink... I don't think it's that surprising that you'd bleed it too.

[beneathmoonlight]

Tell him the truth.

[gandora]

i personally think the best way to explain it to him is to be honest. do you happen to understand why you bleed ink?

[erythristic]

give me some time, shuji. i'll craft a reason for you.

Low oxygen levels in blood make it appear darker. Consequently, if you're not experiencing a poison that is affecting the oxygen levels of your blood, you could write it off as cutting a vein that is bringing the de-oxygenized red blood cells back to the heart. This is a stretch, though.

Assuming that your "ink blood" is black.

What the hell?! You're bleeding ink? Is this a side effect from what's happening?

Jamie Doh Wow, it's real ink? But it's body temperature and everything, and it carries oxygen?
