While actively being collected in preparation for the usage of this gift, the blood in physical contact with the user darkens as it coalesces into black, ever-shifting glyphs which get drawn to and absorbed by the user's skin, be it their hands or mouth. All blood within the same pool gets drawn to the point of contact as the gift is being used, with the draw being stronger the closer it is to the user.
When the gift is used, a dark blur with ever-shifting glyphs visible within quickly spreads across the user's body before dissipating. It lingers around injured areas for a moment longer, exhibiting a crimson sheen.
The wound of the source from where the blood being used had originated from darkens, with the edges getting surrounded by equally-black, unknown, intertwined glyphs. While the imprint normally fades away completely within hours, it may instead remain for longer, up to a week, in proportion to how fiercely the source opposed the gift's usage on them. (lack of sapience or awareness at the time of gift usage results in the normal hour-or-so fadeaway time)
The parts of the gift user's flesh which interacted with the source's blood in order to activate the gift are graced with a black imprint which fades away over time, aforementioned glyphs at the edges included. The fadeaway is linked to the fadeaway of the imprint on the source.
