Nepeta was beginning to get an inkling of what the issue might be. Kanaya's fangs were protruding more than usual, she seemed tired and claimed the ailment to be normal. Thinking on it now, Kanaya had once told her that Gamzee was her usual source for blood and he had been gone a while now.
It was a strange realization to suddenly have. For all her curiosity about Kanaya and rainbow drinkers in general, she had never really imagined her actually drinking any blood. Yes, on some level she knew it was what Kanaya required as sustenance and that she had done it before but...actually imagining it? The process? Not quite so much.
There had been times, especially during the colder season when Nepeta had had to be sparing with her rations in order to survive through it. She knew what it was like to be hungry--truly hungry, and knew what it could do to you.
"Is there something I could do to help?" She didn't ask the question directly, since she still wasn't sure she was on the right track. It also felt like something rather...intimate to offer and so a part of her was also embarrassed about asking.
