Welcome to Gaia! ::

This new apartment is much larger than the small room Nexus had originally decided to occupy. He had given up the old room in favor of a compromise with Mercury.

The apartment they now stayed in had more than one room, giving Nexus' an area in which he could study and work his equipment. He tried his best not to spread his influence to the other rooms, but walking around makes it obvious that his technology has a tendency to migrate.

The flat was open and modern. However, a few of the wall decorations and objects littering the room were heirloom pieces handed down from Nexus' ancestors. He had been surprised to find them in storage under his name, though he never recalled having a storage space rented. He recognized the objects though, things his family had kept around their home in the days he remembered living with them.

Waking, Nexus began to extricate himself from the tangle of blankets on the floor. He noticed he was covered in sweat and dismissed it without thinking much of it. Getting up, he walked his way to the shower and soaked for a few minutes, attempting to focus his energies of solving the problem of condensing his lab. After drying off Nexus donned a crisp button up shirt and a pair of rough black jeans. Finally, after rolling up his sleeve, he set at a small workbench and started the days work.

Two days and much soldering later he admired the craftsmanship on the series of devices. He turned on the creation and it whirred into life. Touching the attached fingerprint scanner, he logged into the small computer system. He was greeted with a splash screen and a series of quick commands to choose from. He started testing them, even though he knew his coding was sound. He touched the first command, labeled "Catalog Sample". Then, taking a needle he pricked his finger and allowed a small droplet of blood to enter the small slot that had opened on the device's side. Nexus smiled as the device detected that the material was indeed blood, was Lycan, and after a quick search through the Devoncroix database was his. He then tapped the screen and the samples more intricate details were stored locally on a solid state drive. Returning to the main screen, Nexus then tapped the view catalog prompt and scrolled to find his name, and then the sample dated for today. After confirming the analysis of the blood to be correctly logged, he again returned to the main screen. He pressed another option, which brought up a terminal display as a small keyboard popped out of the device. He played with some of the hidden commands, and after knowing they worked he attempted a final test of his device.
He simply entered the commands:

He watched as a tube attached to the device drew in a special genetically neutral fluid and the device hummed as through another tube the device filled a container with one liter of blood.
Nexus sat was amazement at his creation working flawlessly. He eagerly waited a minute for the device to finish, and then disconnected the container. Taking the blood to his other lab bench, he dropped a small amount into a machine which analysed the material and displayed that he had entered his own blood into the chamber. He had successfully recreated the theory he had studied in Geneva, and then successfully applied the theory in practice. He had constructed a synthetic blood sample that was identical in construction to real blood. If his calculations were correct, this blood could be seamlessly integrated into his own bloodstream without harm to his body.

Nexus called for some assistance. He would need to test the blood in his own body to be sure the method would work. Normally he would have tested the method on small creatures, but he had no time to waste. Even if something went wrong he would easily heal from the loss of blood within a day, and the body would quickly reject the synthetic blood.

Nexus pushed for consciousness, his mind buzzing painfully at any attempt to anything but lie unconscious.

Nexus' eyes opened and he muttered something unintelligible.

Looking around he saw he was still in his room. He saw that he now had an audience and quickly brushed himself off. Rubbing a temple he said, "Now was that necessary?"

Nexus woke later, his head killing him. He had been about to test his blood sample and he guessed he must have gotten tired. He would have to get some help later to see if he could synthesize an artificial sample of his own blood that his body would accept.

Sasha rapt on the door gently holding a tray of sandwiches and teas.She brushed her Amber locks from her face, and shifted her weight from one foot to the next and waited patiently.

Sasha averted her gaze from the heir of Rein and mustered a smile."I am Sasha I am of the Anotov line but all Devoncroix none the less. And I am more of a philosoher than a chemist sire. But I can assist where I can. I am your house mate and here to attend to your needs."
Her accent was soft but thick in its Prussian hints of melodies, she was tall and lithe like most lycan females, but she was one of a kind. The last of her line a kindred spirit if you will.

"Of course sire, as you wish." She brushed her red hair from her face and tied it up in a chignon away from her neck and rolled her sleeves up and sat at his side and helped whre she could.
