My husband is a butcher. They kill animals on certain days. He suggested taking the vessel, with vampire, to work with him once in a while.
I know, there isn't a real need for blood any more, but if they like when we eat steak and things, would they like to be around the actual process of getting a steak?
I'll ask him when he arrives of course, but I'm curious now. Lol.

Hmmm.... It depends on the Temper and Character of your Vampire espacially when he was still alive...

If I understood my Vamp correctly it is about the memory of the Deed (Consuming Blood in this case and espacially the Flow of it) wich, at least she, gets out of it. Its not even necesserily about the Energies in the Blood wich is let (with that I mean not every time^^) because Vamps as Spirits do not need to rely on those anymore (as she said it). So...to put it short: Its about the Memory and the Sentiment created in those moments (at least for her). I would be curious if its simmilar for your Vamp also^^

Well, I gave mine some raw steak with a few drops of my blood on it and they went nuts- loved it... most of my Tribe are living entities, though; think I only have one spirit among them.

These replies are so interesting! Lots to think about. I'm excited to ask him and see if he would like it.
