"Thank you. Sigrun and Stalas, over here..."
Metella calmly accomplishes the transfer of some of Stalas's blood into Sigrun. It's a bit messier than a proper modern blood transfusion, but not enough to alarm anyone.
Also, because of everything being more open, it's much more obvious when Sigrun's blood starts to glow.
"I'm glowing," she observes, looking at the cut in her arm. "When we just did drops, they didn't glow. Metella, are you making me glow?"
"No, you're glowing all by yourself," says Metella.
"This feels weird," says Sigrun. "It doesn't hurt or anything, though."

"I'm not sure. It's..."
"Glowy?" suggests Stalas.
"Yeah. It feels glowy. That sounds stupid but it's the best I've got." The glow has reached her eyes by now. She blinks a few times. "Okay, so when do I get to test if I have weird powers now? Anybody got an axe for me to crush?"

"I have some failed experimental rune lights...? But they might still be useful as regular lights."

"I'll get something," says Stalas. He goes to Caridin's workshop and comes back with a flat piece of steel that might once have been going to be part of something. "Try this."
Sigrun holds the object in her hand and squeezes it. It doesn't look especially crushed.
"Hmm," says Stalas. "What about if you..."
"Huh," says Sigrun, nodding thoughtfully, "yeah." She squeezes the metal again. It crumples.

"Did... that, evidently," says Stalas. "I was trying to think of a way to word it, but..."
"It was just kinda obvious what you meant?" says Sigrun. "I have no idea how to say it either, though. Maybe it's a glowy lyrium person thing."
"We do appear to both be glowy lyrium people now," says Stalas. "Although I think I want to wait a few days before I do it to anyone else, in case you keel over or lose your glowing ability or something."

With that apparently wrapped up Annie pulls the earrings out of her pocket to show Stalas.

Hug! "I'm not sure they're sharp enough to pierce my ears with so I'll have to find something else, but I know it's entirely possible to do it at home if it's just an earlobe piercing..."
first-and-final
"What are the characteristics of something for piercing ears with? Will Metella's pokey little pins do the job?"
keep_busy
"That'd do it, yeah. And I need something to put on the other side of my ear to sort of hold it still. A cork or - I guess a bar of soap would be easier to find."

"I guess I can go now," says Sigrun.
"Seems like it," says Metella.
The mage, the glowing Legionnaire, and the enormous elf all clear out.
