I got tasked with explaining the unhinged headcannon that happened tonight between me, @precarious-hermit (Mellan), @gremlin-bot (Grem), @thatoneweirdmusician (Conner)
Due to a joke, we accidentally got in the topic of cannibalism. Some of us are well-versed in true crime so criminal cases got brought up.
And that lead me to bring up a weird thing occasionally mentioned in criminal cases - which is a very nasty smell that seems to come from the very skin of the perpetrator which seems to be related to the body being unable to properly process that type of uh… meat.
I got asked what that smell smells like, but i didn’t have a good answer. It’s not really something I know how to easily find.
Then we had to brainstorm about what that smell might be. At first, the idea of the smell of infection came up. But that didn’t make sense.
Then Mellan goes, I bet it smells like the smell of rotting blood.
And we’re like, ‘no, no, that makes sense’
So because we weren’t be able to find a specific answer, we now have a headcannon about this weirdly specific thing
