I donated blood for the first time yesterday! Got some gifts in return: juice, crackers, chocopie, a rubix cube & cute pin (for 1st time donors), and 2 movie tickets (you get to choose from various coupons)~
There are quite a few requirements, so check that you’re eligible before going :) The process was pretty simple: show up, fill out an online survey about some medical history, then meet with a nurse to answer some more questions, test your blood type, and take your blood pressure (mine was too high so I had to wait a few minutes and try again). The computer survey is available in English but the nurse did my interview in Korean and all the instructions during the actual donating were in Korean, so you should check with the specific center ahead of time if you need translation. Apparently they don’t allow friends/family to translate, only official translators/staff.
Once they were ready for me, they showed me to a big reclining chair, gave me some info about potential after-effects to be aware of, stuck my arm with the needle, and then I just chilled there until the machine beeped that I was done. At one point it started beeping because my blood flow was too weak (?) and the nurse came over and gave me a stress ball to squeeze because I wasn’t flexing my hand enough. Overall I’d say it was uncomfortable, but not really painful. When I was done, a nurse put a velcro strap around my bandage for pressure and set a timer for a few minutes. Once that timer was done, the strap was loosened and I was given this basket of goodies, another timer for 10min, and told to go wait in the lobby waiting area. There’s a staff member there to make sure you drink some water before you leave. When the timer goes off, you’re free to go~ I went around 2:30pm and there were a few other people, but everyone is in & out pretty quickly. In total, it took me about 40min from start to finish with the actual donation taking about 15-20min. The only side effect I had is a sore arm and a headache, but that could’ve been from caffeine withdrawals since I didn’t drink coffee yesterday…
Registering my volunteer hours was super simple too! I just logged in on the VMS site, went to the blood donation page, and my info was already there so all I had to do was click “register”.
I passionately believe that Genya’s voice from the next world pushed Sanemi to stand one more time… even though we, the audience, didn’t get to see it…It definitely happened, okay!? Okay!! Good talk everyone!!
@incorrect-league-of-villains This is how I imagine spinner being recruited for the league…. After committing grand theft auto and saying fuck the police!
Image description: Fan art of Joseph, who is covering his bleeding nose. He is wearing his TEW standard uniform. The scene is completely bathed in dark blue, save for the red of the blood; the same red glints in his eyes. Joseph’s brow is furrowed, and he is looking away from the viewer. End ID.
Image description: Fan art of Joseph with his hair longer than when he last appeared in TEW and with marked facial hair. He is wearing a hooded jacket over a collared shirt, and he has a long-handled ice axe in his right hand. He is swinging the axe back over his shoulder, pulling it away from the viewer, and leaving a spray of cartoonish blood in an arch behind it. His horrified expression is thrown into shadows cast by the strange red light that colors the scene. End ID.
Image description: Fan art of Joseph lying on his back on a poppy-patterned bedsheet. Cuts on the bridge of his nose and above his right eyebrow are bleeding anew, though his face is already marked by dried blood and dirt. He is wearing a white bodysuit, and his glasses are nowhere to be seen. A pale red light, like the last minutes of a sunset, glows on his face as he looks past the viewer with a furrowed brow. End ID.

image description: a moodboard based around felix kranken from the walten files that consists of 9 images. the first three are an old polaroid style photo of the bon’s burgers restaurant with a few cars parked in front, a film or arcade game end credits saying the end with blood dripped on the screen, and a shovel digging dirt at night. The second layer has a polaroid of a man who loks like felix in a grey suit smiling and hugging a woman in a white dress in a grey coloured room, on either side of this are two images of blood stained hands taken from the same picture. The final row is a wine bottle smashed open on tiles, spilling blood red wine everywhere, a lucid photo taken from a car showing a road at night with everything blurry, and the word sorry written in blood on a grey floor. end description.
yes, indeed, dear Alis, this one is IN FACT deaf! good thing you directly got into his face so he can read every single word you just said. just let poor Glitch enjoy his drink after a hard day :( @notes28 Arcane oc delivering a well deserved punch :) also Glen of @finding-the-soul having a small cameo.
the aftermath, when Alis realizes 1. he can’t win that one and 2. Glitch IS deaf: he’s actually sorry.
