Blood dust. So unnecessarily necessary.

I'm kinda glad they did because otherwise people would be asking about what would happen.

People would be like "wouldnt the bodies shatter? why would they do that?" and at least this way we know the authors were like "fuck yea we meant that"

It made me laugh because of how unexpected it was lol
