[video via grimy bathroom mirror] i accidentally made him look like a poster from a bee movie

[gogoghostpowers]

[When the video turns on, Danny is in what Locke High students will recognize as one of the boy's bathrooms. He sniffles a little bit, leaning in closer to the mirror, giving everybody (and himself) a better view of exactly the state he's in.

He wipes a finger under his nose, swiping the goopy, glowing blood from it and holding it close up to the mirror. He then rubs it between two fingers and pulls them apart, the substance stretching out into a sticky string between the fingertips.]

...So. Uh. I guess this is what my blood looks like now. God, I hope no one saw me running over here.

I...don't think I'm supposed to be bleeding radioactive waste. Is--is this even safe? Am I going to get cancer and die of radiation poisoning from myself?

[He clutches his head in his hands, starting to look and sound a little hysterical.]

Oh no. How am I supposed to even clean this up?! I need a--a--one of those biohazard trash cans!! Oh my god.

What the hell happened to you?

[gogoghostpowers]

I don't know!! Apparently I just--started bleeding this stuff at some point!! [He points to the 'blood' slicked across his forehead.]

Window reflection from the class down the hall

[not_good_not_wicked]

Holy sh-

"Is something interesting out there, Ms. Kirisame?"

Ah...no ma'am.

[A few seconds later, she tries again, but whispers.]

Are you alright? What happened!?

[gogoghostpowers]

No I'm not alright, I'm bleeding radioactive waste! I don't even know how much longer I have left to live!

[Video]

[scramasax]

What er -- ! ...What - happened...? [A redundant question given the above by now but a seemingly very appropriate one. He's bleeding from the head and nose. He's currently at the high school. One should not be caused to bleed that much at school!]

[Video]

[gogoghostpowers]

[Danny has also learned by this point from the above responses that there are two answers to that question.]

You mean why am I bleeding this stuff, or why am I beat up?

you should probably let mordin solus know over at the clinic

once he gets over creaming himself in glee over the weird symptoms he'll probably be able to figure out what the hell is wrong

might not be radioactive, you could just be bioluminescent, which'd be 100% harmless.

video

[gogoghostpowers]

Bioluminescent?! How is that harmless?! With a name like that, it has to be lethal!

[Handwritten]

[dyingtohealyou]

Geeze, who messed you up?

Also if all of your blood has been replaced with that and you're still alive to tell us, it's probably not radioactive. Pretty sure that would kill you instantly.

[video]

[gogoghostpowers]

[sigh] It just happens sometimes.

Are you really sure? What if--what if I'm immune to radiation or something, and that's why I haven't died yet? What if I'm a walking nuclear reactor!?

Oh my fucking god are YOU in the bullshit coloured blood soulbond club too? Gr8. Super gr8. >8T
The glowing is new though so I guess good luck with THAT. Do you think you glow in the dark now? Like a nightlight????????

video

[gogoghostpowers]

What?! Glow in the dark? Uhh...l-lemme check.

[Danny walks out of view, where he flips the light switch in the bathroom and everything goes dark. He walks back in front of the mirror to check.]

I guess not. At least that's good.

...Wait, there's a colored blood soulbond club? As in, other people with colored blood?!

[Action]

[shiromadoushi]

[[Yeah, that's a pretty recognizable bathroom. One moment, Bakura's going to go checking each bathroom until he finds the right one.]]

Hey. You called for aid?

[Action]

[gogoghostpowers]

[Danny makes a sound that could best be described as a yelp and dashes into a bathroom stall hopefully before whoever this is sees him, locking the door behind him.]

U-uh!! N-nobody's here!

[Voice]

[dododo]

[ P a u s e. ]

I would think you probably won't die from your own blood. However... unnatural it is. I wouldn't jump to conclusions about what it is until someone's had a closer look at it, either.

[video]

[gogoghostpowers]

[Danny slicks some of the blood from his face onto his hand and brings it right up to the mirror. In addition to glowing an unnaturally bright, sickly green, it also has a texture quite different to blood--like something between gelatin and thick syrup.]

Do you have any idea what this is?

[SWEET SALTY ZEUS.]

DANNY!

STAY COMPLETELY CALM!

THIS... THIS IS COMPLETELY NORMAL FOR A GROWING BOY YOUR AGE!!!

[GODDAMMIT NOT AGAIN]

IF THIS WAS NORMAL YOU WOULDN'T BE SCREAMING ABOUT IT!

[Video]

[chalicejoker]

[Oh. Hajime is all too familiar with how this goes.]

I know it looks bad, and it's freaky as hell, but it's all right. Just breathe.

[And then, to forestall the inevitable "easy for you to say" style rebuttal...]

Mine turned about that shade of green a few months ago. Doesn't glow like that, but it's close enough. I've been checked out a couple of times--it's not toxic.

[Of course, there's the fact that the blood looks like it's the result of a fight, but one thing at a time.]

[Video]

[gogoghostpowers]

Y--yours is like this too?!

...do you know what it is?

[Text]

[lightsoflife]

Stay calm. Whatever that is, you can be assured it's not radioactive.

[Maybe not a lot of help there, but there's only so much she can do on a lunch break.]

[video]

[gogoghostpowers]

Really? How can you be so sure?!

[erenplz]

Oh my god, Danny, what the hell?

[gogoghostpowers]

I don't know! I don't know what this stuff is!

[text]

[needsmorezippers]

What the hell?? [this is messed up in so many ways.] Are you ok?

[video]

[gogoghostpowers]

Well, I-I'm still alive. For now.

[eras]

[ HOLY SHIT DANNY WHAT. Aria looks immediately concerned. ]

Are you okay?! I don't - oh my gosh, do you need a ride to the clinic? What happened?

video;

[gogoghostpowers]

I-I don't know! I'm afraid if I do anything I'll poison all of Locke, like that nuclear power plant in Ukraine!

voice;

[metalbent]

It looks like what now? You're bleeding biochemicals?

video;

[gogoghostpowers]

I don't--I guess, I don't know what else it could possibly be!

[strikeraid]

[ ... yep. seeing this guy definitely confirms several of his suspicions about his pet troll. there's only one other designated target on the network and he's a different flavor of loser. now all he needs is a confirmation... ]

too late. you're definitely going to die, and you've probably screwed over the entire school. gg

[video // there is no such thing as late, all are on time here]

[gogoghostpowers]

[Let's pretend this happens a little later, after some damage control has been done and he has gotten a plan together on how to leave after the school day ends. By this point most of the blood has been cleaned, although there is still some on the side of his head.]

No. No way. I can't possibly have bled enough on stuff for it to poison the whole school. It's like--It's--it's impossible.

[He says it, but he doesn't sound like he entirely means it.]

[bored in class and secretly checking the network on his phone, Beat's fingers suddenly seize up in surprise at seeing the boy he just pulverized a few minutes ago. And with glowing neon blood, no less...]

[He's going to hurriedly look down and make sure none of that got on his jacket. HE'S TOO YOUNG TO DIE OH MY GOD]

[gogoghostpowers]

Uhhh...a-are you okay?
