For Nickaroos :)
So, in my recent 1918 outtake, Carlisle struggled with some major temptation when biting Edward and tasting human blood for the first time. Obviously he passed the test, because *Carlisle* and because Edward's still alive. But yeah, what would it look like if he *properly* prepared himself for this by carefully tasting some blood at work over the last couple years? It would get easier every time... maybe a little too easy.
First Try
Carlisle: I can do this, I can do this... *taste* *EATS ENTIRE TEST TUBE*
.
Second Try
Carlisle: Nurse, that'll be all, I'll finish up here...
Nurse: Have a good evening, Doctor.
Carlisle: *looks over shoulder* *looks down at sleeping patient* *sticks IV tube in mouth like a straw* *growls*
Patient: HELP!
.
Third Try
Carlisle: *withdraws needle after injection* *licks fingers*
Patient: Um, why are you tasting my blood?
Carlisle: Ah, yes, well, throughout history, physicians have always determined health by the color, scent, taste, and viscosity of various specimens...
Patient: Oh. Okay. So what is my blood... telling you?
Carlisle: Needs garlic.
