[ Ha ha, he knew it. McGillis sees Izou that way. See? Eli's smart, after all. Knowing to tell Izou he had to talk to the big guy first. Someone give this man a gold star. ]
Huh. I'd say... nah? I mean, I'm giving you all the reasons you should totally get with Celeste. That's wingmanning. Not to say the terms are bad or anything.
[ As for the lack of jealousy, well... ]
And it is a little weird. I would have thought we'd all be super jealous about this, but the more I've thought about it, the more it's like... I love Celeste. That doesn't mean I own him? Plus, he's a vampire. Sex is probably an easy way to get blood? Like, the vampire gets something out of it, the human gets something out of it, that kind of thing.
I can't go "oh, since we're together now, you gotta go hungry". That'd be insane.
[ It's only because Eli told Izou to talk to McGillis that McGillis is now comfortably dropping the term 'boyfriend' whenever and wherever - which means Eli is indeed the greatest wingman of all time. ]
Well, Celeste has said that he won't take any partners except for us here - so we'll have to try hard to keep him well-fed, is what you're saying?
[ There are other ways to get blood (such as stealing from bloodbanks, which he's sure Celeste has also considered and/or done) but... They're talking about this in context of half-flirting and wingmanning so there's no need to get into the actual logistics too hard, is there now? ]
Wait... [ That was what Celeste said, wasn't it?! ] Oh, man, you're right. We'd better, then. I don't know if I can cover every single day without getting sick.
[He's not going to starve...! He wasn't starving before you dweebs started letting him bite often.]
While I do appreciate the care, Mina did provide rations in the dorm fridge. [Yoon even put cute stickers all over them to make the presence of blood bags less spooky--] If it is between something cold- [eugh...] -and you getting sick, I might as well use what has been provided here, since I can't at home, no?
[And he'll go ahead and answer McGillis's unspoken speculation there, too. Whether or not he's considered stealing from bloodbanks at home, he can't actually eat from blood bags usually! Inconvenient!
This wasn't meant to bring up actual logistics, but he can't just let Eli sit and worry like that.]
[ But what about when they aren't together...? When they're worlds apart? Eli wants to ask, but he also doesn't want to ruin the chill mood they have going. ]

So, you can't normally use stored blood?
no subject
Well. Maybe not exactly the same.]
I can't. It was a surprise when I could, here... which certainly contributed to some rather poor decisions.
no subject
Poor decisions? What do you mean?
no subject
[A beat.]
More than once.
no subject
[ Celeste, why. ]
I mean, we can ask Braphine to bless more food, right? Like with the apples? You can still try food...
no subject
...And then he could eat in the Nekiya, so he wondered if things had changed. They had not.]
Ah, no, no, it's fine, she is quite busy. It was just... a poor decision.
[But the concern is very soft.]

[ He would go bully a god for spirit food for Celeste, true story. ]
Well, it ain't real food, but you can feed off me tonight if you'd like. I should be good for it again.
no subject
[He knows! It's very sweet! He just should probably be bullying gods over more important things, though!!]
Not real--? How dare you insult my favorite meal.
[He's all fake offense here - he knows what Eli meant, sure, but. You know. Still has to tease him.]
no subject
Your favorite?! Really?!
[ Oh boy, he's taking this as a compliment. ]
no subject
[It is a compliment, Eli, just. You know. A weird vampire compliment.]
