Oh gods above, Roman hoped that this would be okay. If he prayed, he would, but he had no gods to pray for. His father was an asshole who had possessed him and tried to kill some that he loved long ago, and he knew that the other gods didn't hear his prayers anymore - why would Neptune or Jupiter listen to the prayers coming from the son of Pluto anyway? There was no reason for them to do such a thing. A small sigh left the older male's chest as he looked around, watching the body that was below him.

It wasn't like it was a clanmate or anything. It was prey, something that had been drained of it's blood so that the vampires of the clan could have something to eat, but now it was simply a body that others could eat. But instead of eating it right away, Roman was going to use this moment to teach, as that was part of his task to potentially become a halo, right? "Demonstrate your medical knowledge" well Roman had a lot of it, and although he couldn't share all of it in one sitting, he could share quite a bit.

"If anyone wants to learn how to do a proper amputation just in case, come this way!" The fatherly male would call out, tail lashing out behind him once, "It's on a prey body, so there will be food afterwards." He added as a small remark.

Eyes would shift over to the two that had come, listening to their words as they spoke, head nodding slightly in understanding at each of their words. "That's okay. I'm sure that their body will be properly taken care of either way, their blood has already been taken care of." He would speak, motioning towards the top of the body where it had been drained from, something common in the territory due to the massive amount of vampires within it.

Head would turn over towards Suiteheart as she came over, head dipping slightly in respect as he listened to her speak before nodding his head once again. "Anyone is free to watch and learn. I'm skilled in the subject due to personal experience, though I would like to wait for one or two others to come along if that's okay." He would say.

While Versailles is a little curious about what Roman could have meant when he said he had personal experience, the she-cat decides not to press - he'd probably tell them if he wants to but if he doesn't, then it's not up to discussion. Instead, the domestic pads over to sit next to Suiteheart, flashing the others a small nod in greeting before clearing her throat. They were stating their intentions, weren't they?

"I'm here for the, uh, 'amputations'... and the food." It's not like Versailles is the type to lie anyway, and they were doing it, she doesn't necessarily see the harm in sharing her point of view. She's never actually seen an amputation before, has never really needed on herself - her whole life has been wake up, hunt, eat, sleep, and she doesn't exactly know what to expect (or what an amputation even is, although she figures it must be in relation to some form of bodily mutilation based on the bled-out prey).

✯ — Amputation?  Oh dear.  For a split second, the marten felt sick, her stomach twisting in knots.  Self-consciously, her eye darted to her metal legs and she found herself edging to the very back of the gathering crowd, torn ears flicking.  Worse so, she remembered the smell of burning flesh when she oversaw the amputation of a friend's leg.  It'd be her job after all.  Still.  She knew that pain.  When searing heat cut through flesh.  There were other ways to do it without fire, or... She breathed in sharply, closing her eyes tight.

Being the vegetarian she was - though her body was made to digest as an omnivore - 'food' did not apply.  Lessa wrapped her fluffy tail around herself like a blanket, taking in slow breaths through her nose.  She would need to make some tea after this.

Ah, good, a crowd. Looking over those that were there, Roman would wait, seeing if any had questions. When it was clear that none did and all that spoke were simply there to state there intentions, the male would silently hope that all would go well before speaking once more, looking over the crowd again. "For those who don't know me, my name is Roman, and as you've gathered I'll be teaching a class on amputation today. It will only be one way to do it as I do not know them all, but when I was a kitten I stepped in a bear trap and my leg got infected and I had to get it amputated. It was a long time ago, and another body ago, but I trained under the feline who ended up having to amputate." So hopefully he would do Aster proud today.

Moving forward, the feline would go towards the leg of the prey - a deer, large enough for everyone to be able to see - and began to speak again. "Due to there not being much if any blood left in the deer, I'll just have to share how to best stop the bleeding the way I've learned it. Firstly though, you don't usually amputate just to do it, you do it because the leg is torn horribly in some way, the bone is too broken to be fixed and it'd be best to amputate or it's infected. Those are the most common anyway. So if everyone is ready, I'm going to break the bone of one of the legs of the deer, and questions can be asked as the process goes."

With that, Roman would grab onto a large rock and break one of the back legs, enough that it was clearly able to tell that it was broken, before moving to show the group.

//I'm going to take the thread slightly slow, but hopefully not too slow, so that characters who want to learn can learn, and so that I try to not write too much at once <3
