[It was like, 3 in the morning, and Lio was laying in bed while restlessly typing this on his phone, the subject of the post laying next to him and almost certainly drooling in his sleep.]

To whom it may concern.

If you see an idiot firefighter running around the city shirtless at any point, look with your eyes, not your hands. Actually, I'd prefer if you kept your eyes above the chin.

He's mine.

[Happy first day of Sanguis!]

fire can't burn without fuel
there's a triangle of needs
fuel oxygen and heat

if they were burning hotter they would've had to be consuming something to do it

i mean it's fine if you don't know
it's just something to wonder about

[Triangle, eh? Lio thumbed at the triangle earring dangling from his ear. Probably just a coincidence.]

They used our bodies as fuel, but they would also regenerate our bodies as we burned. I don't know how, only that that's how it worked. I did once burn faster than I could regenerate, but that was due to being trapped in a machine forcing me to burn.

a machine forcing you to burn?

like to study why you were burning
or to try to make you burn out?

To use me as a core in a warp engine.

I'd rather not talk about it.

[The trauma of it was still fresh.]
