They test to see if he is in fact affected by the strength of the sunlight – while he was outside at dawn, it did in fact feel less strong, but he was partially buried in sand and the pain ramped up over the time he was out, so it wasn't a particularly good indicator. It turns out he is in fact affected differently by different strengths of sunlight; weaker sunlight is confirmed to feel less painful and he loses his senses less quickly this time than when he went outside earlier.

After a short while, they go back inside and he cools off – it's not yet sunset, it's just slightly dimmer, so the sun still has quite strong effects on him. They have food, or rather Matt and Sadde do, though Theo cooks it because he hasn't lost that ability despite becoming a vampire, and it gradually gets towards sunset.

"And we also have the derelict buildings to do, and maybe the hospital to go scope out to see if we can get anything on when blood is delivered, and– right now we should probably test if my blood acts normally after it has been outside my body for a while, if anyone's up for that?"

Sadde grimaces a bit but says, "Yeah, sure."

And then there is a knife on the counter by Sadde and Theo is over by the fridge, getting out his blood.

"Do we want to test the blood that was left out on the side or not? I'm not sure what accumulates on stuff that's left out but I have a feeling drinking blood that's left out could be bad because of not-directly-blood-related reasons, such as weird pathogens that might take root in it."

Permalink

"Yeah I'd rather not," he says, eyeing the knife.

Permalink

"I can bite you instead or something, not sure what things you are and are not okay with here."

He opens his mouth, then closes it, and looks at Willow.

Permalink

"Okay I am so out of here."

She is so out of here.

Permalink

"– If you're not okay with it then we don't have to?"

Permalink

"I think this is mostly about the. Um. The thing."

Permalink

"The biting thing? – I wasn't going to do it? You mentioned not to."

Permalink

"I mentioned not to in public," he clarifies.

Permalink

"– You mentioned not to with other people around because Willow was there at the time and it seemed like you meant it as relevant to that situation?"

Permalink

"The… biting thing?"

Permalink

"Right, in public, with people around, that's what I meant, yes." He looks at Matt and says, "Theo can do a thing where biting feels. Um. Very good. In a. Sexual way."

Permalink

Pause. "Really."

Permalink

"Yeah, apparently, haven't exactly experienced it first hand – uh, Matt is also a person who is around, though?"

Permalink

"Yes but he did not know this before and also I hadn't meant you should do it, it just occurred to me that you could and I guess Willow, um, interpreted that as... um?"

Permalink

"Right," he says. "Well. No, I wasn't going to."

Permalink

"So, hold up a minute – you just bit Sadde in front of Willow and did that at some point?"

Permalink

"He didn't know that was going to happen, I take it?"

Permalink

"I mean, I would guess that! But what, did you just sort of, accidentally decide to do that or is it not intuitive or what?"

Permalink

"Not intuitive. There was a thing when I bit him and I was like 'sure why not' which is a really bad idea and I should just not do that in the future and then that."

Permalink

"Yes. That," he says, biting his lower lip.

Permalink

"And, what, if I weren't here you'd want Theo to bite you, do that, and then you drink some of the possibly-expired blood to see if it works?"

Permalink

"Mmmmaybe. There was also the part where even without blood his bite marks disappeared fairly quickly."
