At least Jigano didn't seem to mind him asking questions about why the bard would want his fluid - at least they were not so far apart now that Jigano wanted his blood without any explanation for it. He supposed that given Wessex had apparently bitten without his consent, it was reasonable for Jigano to want protections against it; personally Sam considered drinking to be something intimate, close, not to be done with someone you were not close to - most other Ascended felt similarly, he thought (wrongly). While he was not sure it was worth the fuss to guard against one Ascended's bite.... Samuel
He took a step but then felt tired
He said, I'll rest a little while But when he tried to walk again He wasn't a child |

He had never said that Wessex had bitten him, only that he had history with her, and reason not to trust her since they’d fought before, but Sam had a habit of hearing what he wanted to hear and Jigano couldn’t know what misconceptions filtered into his friend’s head, even at the best of times. As for the rest, he agreed completely that drinking was something to be done for intimacy or emergencies, not on a whim as those like Amun seemed to think. And there was no telling what other Outlanders would arrive as Ascended, and what their moral codes would be like. No, he sought safety and protection from more than just Wessex, but she and the Voice had certainly given him the fear and impetus to do something about it rather than relying on the (all too rare) kindness of strangers. ”Ah, good point,” he grimaced slightly at the necessity of asking a friend to literally open a vein for him. ”I should pick up a small vial to put it in, too, so I don’t need to ask again if I spill it. There’s a bottle I got from Remi for the glow-light chemical back in the Guildhall, if you’ll join me there? And… thank you, Sam. I really appreciate this. I’m glad we can still help each other, even if we disagree on our theologies.” In the interest of moving things along, if Sam would join him he’d lead the way back to the Atheneum, where the Hall would provide a small, clean bottle and a clean blade for the bookmaker to use to ‘bleed’ himself with.
