Poll: What colour do want your blood to be?

[kasperbbs]

I want it to be clear like water! Just today i messed up my shirt after i cut my arm, i liked that damn shirt .

 

[Cybele]

Transparent, like water just thicker.
Now wouldn't that be interesting?

Prolly just red. It's earthy without looking old (brown) or icky (orange has a whole new concept to me after it being the color I associated, that I nasally "saw" from our high school's lunchroom dumpster(s(?))).

My question would be if I'd still want my veins and non-oxygenated blood to be blue. Maybe not. But I don't see my veins too often (maybe when I get older and my skin wears thin I'll care more one way or another*), and I don't see non-red blood at all. There was one time I got cut deep on my leg ('round or under the knee, IIRC), but that was just a general "really dark" color (which I guess is what "large" amounts of blood looks like when it's together and/or getting red'd). That may be an icky concept... (the color, mind, or saturation to the point of looking like congealed evil)

*This phrasing > "one way or the other"

Red blood, no question. That way, if blood comes out of my body, people will be saying "Shit! Blood is coming out of that dude's body! Call an ambulance!" rather than "Shit! This guy is an alien! Let's kill it!"

On the other hand, white. Blood-shot eyes will never be an issue.

I said pink. But only because it immediately reminded me of the strawberry syrup I put on my ice cream sometimes.

How about gold? That way when you free the blood in a cube it look like a chuck of gold until it start to melt. It will be creepy that you had been holding bloods all of this time.

This definitly, though it would be hard getting someone with the same blood type

Silver.

Though this would be nice to trick vampires.

 

[GeorgW]

What else? Green!! Vulcans FTW!!
Pretty much anything other than boring old red would be nice though.

<color=blue>8lue o8viously!!!!!!!!

 

[SilentCom]

Invisible color, that way my enemies won't see me bleed.

 

[Dungeons]

Hard to chose, Enchanted Bipolar Dwarf is my favorite color, but pulsing neon rainbow can make sweet rave parties.

 

[EtherealBeaver]

Red because I enjoy being alive and changing my blood color would make it rather hard to have red blood cells to transport oxygen to my body in general, thus enabling the whole "being alive" thing.

 

[n03s]

Im happy with red.

 

[crystalsnow]

Green. BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT DUNGEON SIEGE LET YOU CHOOSE.

 

[OmniscientOstrich]

I've heard that blood is actually blue when inside the body, but turns red when exposed to oxygen. So yeah, blue blood would be cool but a lack of oxygen wouldn't.

 

[TheOneandOnly]

Clear. Have you ever tried to wash out a blood stain? Nightmare...

 

[Ryokai]

BLACK BLOOD. Seriously, what else is there?

 

[ultimateownage]

Glowing, Glittering Rainbow! That'd be beyond awesome. It'd also give homophobes an easy time.
