3	[[{{Pun}} It sucks]] depending on blood or souls to survive. Having a talent in blood magic [[BlessedWithSuck doesn't exactly mesh well with ethical behavior]]. But what do you do if your best friend or main ally has to have these things? Assuming their HorrorHunger or BloodMagic won't kill you instantly, just offer up a vein! After all, what are friends for?
4
5	This trope is for people who agree to sustain someone's HorrorHunger to keep them from taking advantage of the fact that WarmBloodbagsAreEverywhere. There can be multiple reasons why: maybe they are close friends trying to keep the feeder safe, maybe they are {{Vampire Vannabe}}s excited to get close to one, or maybe it's an emergency and the donor would rather not have anyone else be attacked. If they're lucky, their friend won't be slowly killing them. If they're really lucky, they can work some form of symbiosis into the relationship.
6
7	In more idealistic media, this dynamic is likely to come with a level of mutual respect. The donor cares too much to kill the feeder outright and is compassionate enough to make this kind of sacrifice, while the receiver is generally a noble monster who tries to cause minimal harm and not take out their HorrorHunger on others. This could range from a one-time necessity to lifelong arrangement. A romantic and/or sexual relationship may be involved, which could lead to HemoErotic and/or KissOfTheVampire. Compare to ZombieAdvocate. In darker depictions, the respect is sorely lacking from one side - the willing donors are portrayed as somewhere between cult members and addicts and their vampiric overlords are quite happy to exploit them.
8
9	This trope is not exclusive to vampires, but for all creatures that have a form of HorrorHunger or a need to feed on human energies.

16	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
17	* ''Manga/CallOfTheNight'':
18	** As part of his agreement with [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Nazuna]], Yamori allows her to feed on him whenever she wants, hoping that eventually it'll stick and he will turn into a vampire himself [[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove after falling in love with her]]. Because Nazuna finds Yamori's blood particularly delicious, she feeds on him often, [[MakingLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces sometimes in rather inappropriate places]].
19	** A few nights after a close encounter with a particularly ravenous vampire, Akira tells Yamori that, when he turns into a vampire, she will allow him to feed on her blood so that he won't fall victim to HorrorHunger. A few minutes later, Mahiru makes him the same offer for the same reason.
20	** Yamori allows Akiyama to take some of his blood after [[spoiler:[[VampireHunter Anko]] tries to kill him]], which helps him recover. [[ClingyJealousGirl Nazuna is not amused]].
21	* In ''Manga/DGrayMan'', Eliade allows [[ActuallyNotAVampire vampire-like Exorcist]] Arystar Krory a taste of her [[spoiler:Akuma]] blood to bring out his [[BloodKnight other side]] before fighting the heroes.
22	* In ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'', a mortally wounded [[spoiler:Pip]] tells a grievously wounded Seras to drink his blood so that she'll have the strength to beat their assailant.
23	* Inverted in ''Anime/{{Naruto}}'': Karin has an unique healing technique where the wounded person can bite her flesh a bit and absorb [[{{Mana}} her Chakra]] into themselves to heal their body. She has done this to multiple different people, though on-screen she only did it to Sasuke.
24	* ''Anime/{{Nightwalker}}'' had [[FairCop Yayoi Matsunaga]] serves a willing donor to [[TheHero Shido]] [[spoiler:and later Riho]], providing him with Nightbreed related cases to solve in exchange for her blood. It helps she is immune to vampire bites thanks to an incident involving the Nightbreed.
25	* ''Anime/PhantomQuestCorp'': The first Incident File is about Bosco, [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire a vampire]] who's been trying to kick the habit, [[LoveRedeems since falling in love with Makiko]], who's a 19 year old college freshman. At first, he appears to be stalking her, [[RelationshipReveal until it's revealed that she's his girlfriend]] and has been helping him by allowing him to feed on her 4 times a year, at only 200cc's per quarter.
26	* After being infected with the eponymous virus in ''Manga/{{Pupa}}'', Yume starts hungering for human flesh. Her brother Utsutsu, who has a HealingFactor thanks to the same virus, acts as her food source.
27	* In the YuriGenre manga ''Seifuku no Vampiress Lord'', after Irie is turned into a vampire, the first person she reveals it to is her {{Childhood Friend\|s}} Nana, who voluntarily offers her blood to her after watching her suffer through an intense blood withdrawal in the first couple days. Later on, Nana recognizes [[spoiler:that she is not always around when the vampiric urge hits Irie and allows her to feed on other girls -- on the condition that Nana remains effectively her main "donor"]]. By that point, it is long past the point of ambiguity that the two of them are a [[ChildhoodFriendRomance couple]] (who greatly enjoy the fact that vampiric feeding gives both parties involved an intense sexual pleasure).
28	* In ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd'', after ChildhoodFriends Mika and Yuu reunite for the first time in 4 years, and Yuu realizes Mika is a vampire and dying of injury/starvation, he offers his blood and becomes his primary food source.
29	* ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'': When Nishiki's human girlfriend Kimi discovers his ghoul nature, she lets him bite a chunk of meat out of her shoulder to recover.
30	* ''Manga/TsubasaReservoirChronicle'': Kurogane becomes a blood donor to [[spoiler:Fai]], who had to be [[EmergencyTransformation made into a vampire to save his life]].
31	* ''Literature/VampireHunterD'': Subverted in the 1985 animated film version. Doris Lang is beginning to fall in love with the dhampir (half-vampire) D, so she offers to let him drink some of her blood. He manages to overcome his bloodlust and declines her kind offer.
32	* In ''Manga/VampireKnight'', there's consensual blood drinking among tons of characters, including Yuuki and both of her love interests, and vampires with strong relationships won't want any blood but their loved one's. For example, Yuuki offers to help Zero sate his bloodlust and avoid becoming a [[WasOnceAMan level E vampire]], since he was a normal human who was bitten by a vampire years ago.
33	* ''Manga/{{Vassalord}}'': Rayflo routinely allows Charley to feed on him since Charley's upbringing won't allow him to feed off an innocent human. For context, Rayflo and Charley are both vampires, the latter of whom is a vampire hunter raised by the church. Since Rayflo won't die no matter how much Charley drinks, it's basically the perfect solution to Charley's situation. Overlaps ''heavily'' with HemoErotic since Rayflo obviously...greatly enjoys being fed on.
34	[[/folder]]
35
36	[[folder:Audio Plays]]
37	* In the ''AudioPlay/BigFinishDoctorWho'' audio plays:
38	** The Eighth Doctor tames a vortisaur by letting it feed on his blood in ''Storm Warning''
39	** He also allows a vampire to feed on him in the audio ''Situation Vacant''.
40	* In ''Podcast/MetamorCity'' Leansidhe are elder fae that offer inspiration and talent to artists in exchange for draining their blood and life force. In "Whispers in the Wood" a Leansidhe has bound herself to a musician with terminal cancer, and focuses the life draining on his tumors, similar to how death-aspected mana is used to treat cancer in-universe.
41	[[/folder]]
42
43	[[folder:Comic Books]]
44	* ''ComicBook/BatmanVampire'' has a HeroicSacrifice variant during the climax: [[spoiler:Alfred offers his blood to his vampirized master so he can have the necessary strength to defeat Two-Face and Killer Croc, requesting that he is beheaded so that he doesn't rise as a vampire himself]].
45	* In the ''ComicBook/CloakAndDagger'' comics both heroes do this for each other. Dagger is constantly creating energy that must be bled off, and Cloak constantly needs to absorb energy. They maintain a symbiotic relationship.
46	* Bloodhorne University holds the titular blood drive in ''ComicBook/MyVeryFirstVampireBloodDrive'' every year for the local community of friendly vampires. The students voluntarily give their blood, and Bunny's friend Lala actually seems to enjoy it a bit. Bunny, having somehow missed the important detail of there being vampires involved, quickly tries to high-tail it out of there, but decides to go through with it when she meets Velvet, a vampire who can only drink type AB blood-- her blood type-- due to a weird allergy. [[spoiler: By the end of the comic, the two are dating, and it's revealed that Bunny still regularly becomes Velvet's "victim."]]
47	* Shortly after ComicBook/{{Rogue}} [[HeelFaceTurn first joined]] the ''ComicBook/XMen'', ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} offered up his powers to save her from lethal injuries received when she [[TakingTheBullet intercepted a sustained energy blast]] meant for him and his fiancee despite having made it clear when she arrived less than a day before that [[ReformedButRejected he would happily kill her himself for her crimes]] and being so badly injured moments ago that losing his regeneration could have easily cost him his own life.
48	** In general, when anyone freely offers to transfer thier powers[=/=]knowledge[=/=]skills to Rogue (or in a few desperate cases initiates same without warning or prior permission) it has overtones of this trope, especially when her touch is outright [[TouchOfDeath incapacitating and/or potentially lethal]].
49	[[/folder]]
50
51	[[folder:Fan Works]]
52	* In MassivelyMultiplayerCrossover fic ''Fanfic/BloodAndRevolution'', [[Characters/RurouniKenshin Kenshin and Aoshi]] are vampires, and Saitou tries to function as their handler; he starts off feeding them occasionally when they can't get someone else just so they don't go crazy, then he gets ClaimedByTheSupernatural as their own personal prey and becomes their primary food source, and then of course it gets sexual. [[Characters/NeonGenesisEvangelion Kaji]] later fills a similar role when Saitou isn't available, and in time [[Characters/{{Free}} Rei]] acts as portable breakfast and lover for [[Characters/YuGiOh Atem]]. After [[spoiler:Seth]] is turned into a vampire, he categorically refuses to feed on anyone who doesn't volunteer. This practice is presented as a possible solution to the FantasticRacism against {{youkai}}, which is somewhat justified by how many have to feed from humans - pair them up with people who are willing to feed them so they don't have to go hunting.
53	* In the ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' Fanfic ''Cursed'', where Ruby has been turned into a vampire and eventually caught/surrender after several nonlethal attacks. Ruby locks herself in an observation room to keep anyone from getting in so she doesn't attack them for the much needed blood she is thirsting for. Her sister Yang persuades Ruby to let her in by threatening to break the door down. When Ruby lets her in Yang locks them both in to keep anyone from stopping her from offering some of her own blood to help her sister from losing complete control of herself.
54	* ''Fanfic/{{Nosflutteratu}}'': Rainbow Dash serves as a willing donor when Fluttershy really needs it. In a Downplayed sense, Ponyville as a whole steps up with its annual blood drives frequently resulting in excess blood that doesn't get used otherwise, which they give to Fluttershy.
55	* In the VideoGame/HonkaiImpact3rd fanfiction, Fanfic/ThereAreNoThoughtCrimes, it’s Kiana to Mei and [[spoiler: Fu Hua]]. She lets Mei and the latter take blood from her willingly, but for the latter, it’s as a way to make up for ruining her packs of blood.
56	* Some ''Franchise/TouhouProject'' fanworks have Sakuya be this to Remilia and Flandre, usually playing up the LesbianVampire aspect in the process. Whether Sakuya or Remilia is more anxious for the actual bloodsucking depends on the artist.
57	* Watson to the vampire Holmes in [[https://archiveofourown.org/series/283167 "The Vermillion Problem"]]. Willingly given, it takes only a little amount to satisfy Holmes's hunger. It also has the effect of making Watson's blood poison to any vampire that tries to take it by force.
58	* It is a common trend in ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fanfics where Himiko is not a villain for other characters to volunteer their blood for her, especially whoever happens to be her love interest in the fanfic. ''Fanfic/AHeroRises'' has Izuku constantly letting Himiko bite him.
59	[[/folder]]

61	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
62	* Karen gave her blood to the titular character in ''Film/{{Blade}}'' when he was wounded and needed to regain his strength to fight the BigBad.
63	* Happens in the live action version of ''Film/BloodTheLastVampire''. Sharon feeds Saya from her own blood so she could gain strength for the final fight.
64	* In ''Film/{{Daybreakers}}'' the vampire protagonist Edward joins a group of humans. Audrey intuitively knows he has not drunk blood in a while and, though Edward protests, she draws her own blood into a cup and gives it to him. Edward is a ReluctantMonster who abstains from human blood, so his distress and shame are obvious as he drinks Audrey's.
65	* In ''Film/DraculaUntold'', [[spoiler:Vlad's wife Mirena tells him to drink her blood and complete his transformation into a vampire so that he can rescue their son, who has been kidnapped by the Ottomans. Also counts as an HeroicSacrifice, given that she was already dying anyways]].
66	* Played with in ''Film/NearDark''; Caleb has been made a vampire, but refuses to kill. His love interest Mae lets him drink from her — taking blood which Mae ''got'' by killing, and meaning she'll have to kill again sooner, making the ethics quite problematic.
67	-->'''Severen:''' It ain't right for her to be carryin' him like this!
68	* At the end of ''Film/{{Raw}}'', Justine's father opens his shirt to show several ragged scars where he had previously allowed his wife to feed on him, as a way of demonstrating that his daughters' cannibalistic cravings are InTheBlood.
69	* ''Film/TheresaAndAllison'': Some of the vampires have humans they feed on who agreed to this, finding it [[KissOfTheVampire pleasurable]].
70	* ''Film/VampireDiary'': Vicky pays a homeless man to let her feed on his blood, though she goes too far, killing him. Later she also drinks some of Holly's when she's offering it. This doesn't last though, as it weakens Holly enough she can't continue. [[spoiler:She's shown at the end to be feeding Vicki's little daughter with her blood, looking quite haggard given this. It may be implied that this kills her.]]
71	* In the AshcanCopy ''Film/{{Vampirella}}'' movie, the bad guys deliberately lock up Vampirella with Adam Van Helsing so she'll have to kill him for his blood sooner or later. He eventually gives her permission to feed on him just enough so that she can break out.
72	* In ''Film/XMen1'' Wolverine accidentally stabbed Rogue, so she had to "borrow" his healing power to save herself. This drained him enough to knock him unconscious. This instance wasn't quite voluntary, but it [[{{Foreshadowing}} sets up]] a similar situation later, when [[spoiler: Magneto's machine]] nearly kills Rogue, and Wolverine again saves her, almost sacrificing his own life to do so.
73	[[/folder]]
74
75	[[folder:Literature]]
76	* In ''Literature/AnitaBlake'', somebody who regularly allows a specific vampire to feed from them is known as a "pomme de sang" (French for "blood apple").
77	* The ''Literature/AnnoDracula'' series has several instances of humans offering their blood to friendly vampires, as well as several less purely voluntary variations, such as poor people with no job prospects finding employment as living beverage kegs in vampire pubs. On the more friendly side, the human Charles and the vampire Genevieve develop a long-lasting friendship that includes the occasional friendly snack, which is suggested to confer health benefits to Charles and contribute to him living to a ripe old age.
78	* In ''Literature/{{Bakemonogatari}}'', the tad-bit-vampire-himself protagonist Koyomi is a high-school boy who is seen occasionally letting a detached, mute, just-sitting-there small girl vampire bite his neck and feed on him in gentle embrace. Vampire girl is portrayed to be apparently in the care of full-of-quirks advisor figure Oshino. Backstory of their tight relationship is mostly left to a prequel, ''Kizumonogatari''. In other stories it moves forward.
79	* ''Literature/TheBrothersCabal'': While the Dee Society is fighting off an army of monsters, the Major offers a pint of blood to [[FriendlyNeighbourhoodVampire Horst]] to boost Horst's superhuman powers. PlayedForDrama shortly later when [[spoiler:the Major, mortally wounded by a monster, asks Horst to finish him off and help save the others.]]
80	* Alluded to in the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' series.
81	** Although there's a teetotaler vampire movement (drinking animal blood and transferring the addiction to, say, [[MustHaveCaffeine coffee]]) and standard [[BreakingAndBloodsucking bedroom-invading]] vampires, there are also vampires who arrange for stylish evenings with volunteer "dinner companions". Salacia (a teetotal vampire) comments in ''Literature/{{Thud}}'' that people think vampires and werewolves are weird, but the people who agree to ''that'' are weirder.
82	** Zig-zagged in ''Literature/CarpeJugulum'': The Magpyrs like to claim the Arrangement in Escrow (everybody in the village "donates" some blood) is a civilised way of doing things in a spirit of mutual co-operation, but it's ''not'' voluntary. The locals turn out to actually ''prefer'' the Old Count's more ... traditional approach, because at least you had a chance to fight him off. On the other hand, Granny Weatherwax points out that, while they may have hated the Arrangement, they still went along with it, and vampires can only go where they're invited.
83	* ''Literature/TheDresdenFiles'':
84	** Thomas Raith has one in the form of his (eventual) girlfriend Justine - it's somewhat justified in this case, because Justine is TheOphelia and him feeding on her actually helps her think clearly.
85	** Irwin, son of a bigfoot, has vast amounts of life-energy; his girlfriend, Connie, is a succubus who drains life-energy during sex. Normally this can kill the victim, but in Irwin's case, his supply is more than a match for her demands, even when [[spoiler:her father manipulates her into feeding continuously in an attempt to get her to kill him like every other White Court vampire kills their first victim]].
86	* In the ''Literature/EighthDoctorAdventures'' novel ''Vampire Science'', the Doctor lets vampire scientist Joanna Harris drink his blood.
87	* ''Literature/{{Elcenia}}'':
88	** Pretty much all the modern-day vampires depend on voluntary donors; it's the central tenet of their religion. This came about after a blood plague swept the world, causing typical symptoms of weakness and fever in those infected, but proving fatal to any vampire who drank their blood. Only the vampires who had accepted the religion and formed peaceful arrangements with their communities could count on a steady supply of clean donors. (The fact that a FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire can protect a community from more sinister specimens helped them gain acceptance.)
89	** Talyn actually finds himself on ''both'' ends of it, at different times; he's a regular donor for his vampire girlfriend, but also gets temporarily [[ShapeshifterModeLock stuck in vampire form]] himself at one point, and visits a neighbor for a top-up.
90	* ''Literature/FevreDream'' is about a friendship that develops between a human and a FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire who has sworn off human blood. Near the end of the novel, the human volunteers his blood so the friendly vampire will have the strength to defeat the distinctly unfriendly vampire BigBad.
91	* In ''Literature/{{Fledgling}}'', the Ina vampires have compounds of humans with whom they [[TheSymbiote live in symbiosis]]: vampires get blood, humans get improved health and [[LongLived extended lifespans]], and both get ''very'' emotionally invested in the relationship. Whether it's GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul is debatable, since it [[IfItsYouItsOkay overrides the human's original sexual preferences]] and causes fatal withdrawal symptoms if they back out after a certain point, but for many, it's MoreThanMindControl.
92	* After rescuing [[TheHighQueen Allette]], Literature/KittyNorville offers her blood to the badly weakened Vampire Mistress of D.C.[[note]](being [[BondVillainStupidity chained to an upholstered chair soaked in holy water by rosary beads and left before an opened east-facing window]] is Not Fun)[[/note]] to give her the strength to fight her renegade [[IHateYouVampireDad childe]] and his allies. Downplayed in the sense that the [[SupernaturallyDeliciousAndNutritious potency of lycanthrope blood]] meant that she did not need that much and Kitty's [[HealingFactor regeneration]] would restore her swiftly.
93	* In ''Literature/OneStormyNight'', Mei and Gabu are [[spoiler:starving while stuck in a cave during the winter]]. Mei, being a goat, realizes he'll likely starve anyway and offers himself so that his friend, a wolf, can eat. [[spoiler:Gabu refuses]].
94	* ''Literature/TeamHuman'': [[spoiler:After Principal Saunders' husband is turned into a mindless blood-sucking zombie, she imprisons him in a cave and feeds him with her own blood to keep him "alive"]].
95	* In the last book of ''Literature/TheSagaOfDarrenShan'', when Darren is exhausted from a bunch of stressful physical tasks one after another, former cop Alice grabs a knife and cuts open a vein so he can restore himself before the final battle. There's nothing romantic between them -- Darren's old girlfriend actually left him for Alice -- but it isn't supposed to mean that. They're all just making use of what resources they have, in a struggle for survival.
96	* In ''Literature/StraightOuttaFangton'' as part of Literature/TheUnitedStatesOfMonsters universe says that these are actually the majority of vampire victims once the supernatural is exposed to the rest of the world. The KissOfTheVampire effect of the Bite means that they have no end of volunteers but that it is still greatly unhealthy for them. Many vampires keep "Harems" of these that become their regular permanent live-in victims.
97	* In ''Literature/VampireAcademy'', Mori vampires have human volunteers around to feed off of. However, given the [[FantasticDrug effects of long term feeding]], consent can get...questionable. Their Dhampir bodyguards could offer some blood in a pinch.
98	* A common trope in ''Literature/TheVampireChronicles''.
99	** The teenage Armand plays this to Marius, the mysterious reclusive gentleman he has become romantically involved with, allowing him to [[KissOfTheVampire feed on him]] in a LoverAndBeloved-type relationship until Marius eventually turns him.
100	** Daniel, after his plot-catalyzing ''Film/InterviewWithTheVampire'', tracks down Armand and requests to be turned himself. Armand resists for a while, but in the meantime regularly feeds on Daniel.
101	[[/folder]]
102
103	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
104	* ''Series/BeingHumanUS'': Three "monster" roommates live together and make a pact to keep each other on the straight and narrow, which for them means not feeding on or harming humans. Sometimes, they need help sticking to the pact.
105	** In one episode, Sally, a ghost, is being possessed and goes into a fugue state. While in fugue, Sally seals all exits to the house she shares with her roommates, locking in Josh, a werewolf who will soon transform because of the full moon, Aidan, a vampire who hasn't fed in days, and Zoe, a human that is unaware of the [[{{Masquerade}} danger she is in]]. Josh offers his own blood to keep Aidan from [[ThouShaltNotKillMuggles feeding on Zoe]] who is unaware that Josh and Aidan are anything other than human.
106	** Sally learns a spell that allows her to have a tangible physical body which is euphoric after years of existing only to the monsters whose own supernatural abilities allow them to see her. However, she finds out that in order to maintain the body, she has to feed on human flesh, the fresher the better. To keep her from feeding on [[{{Muggles}} normal humans]], Aidan offers to be her food source, reasoning that he has regenerative powers as part of his vampirism. That does not keep the process from being insanely painful, though.
107	* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'':
108	** In the season 3 finale Buffy's vampire LoveInterest Angel has been poisoned and the only cure is Slayer blood. Buffy tries to capture rogue slayer Faith for her blood, but when Faith escapes Buffy gives Angel herself. He feeds a lot and she ends up in the hospital for blood loss.
109	** It's revealed in season five that there's an actual market for this kind of thing. Humans pay or otherwise volunteer to be non-lethally sucked on by vampires. Buffy discovers this when she learns her current boyfriend Riley has been "donating". The ''Series/{{Angel}}'' spin-off had an added twist; the voluntary victims are heroin junkies so the vampires can get high on the heroin-infused blood.
110	* In ''Series/{{Community}}'' episode "Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps", a subplot involves Britta being Vampire Jeff's casual blood donor. He keeps her in a closet for when his HorrorHunger comes. She looks all pale and covered in bite wounds. But she claims she is fine with that treatment.
111	* In ''Series/DirkGentlysHolisticDetectiveAgency'' Amanda starts hanging out with the Rowdy Three because their feeding on her fear relieves her neurological disorder.
112	* ''Series/ADiscoveryOfWitches'':
113	** Jack and other vampires have humans who allow the vampire to feed on them in exchange for money and other favors.
114	** [[spoiler:Diana lets herself be bitten to save Matthew's life after Juliette attacks him.]]
115	* ''Series/ForeverKnight''
116	** Nick Knight is a VegetarianVampire who feeds on cow blood and the very occasional pint of donated blood from a blood bank; but once in a while when the urge is upon him he calls upon his fellow vampire Jeanette who allows him to feed on her.
117	** In the pilot episode Nick has to fight Lacroix, but needs human blood to match his strength. The DamselInDistress urges Nick to feed on her, as Lacroix is going to kill them anyway, and if she survives she'll become a vampire and live forever. Nick refuses, and ironically Lacroix feeds on her and turns her into a vampire anyway.
118	* ''Series/InterviewWithTheVampire2022'':
119	** "[[Recap/InterviewWithTheVampire2022S1E2AfterThePhantomsOfYourFormerSelf ...After the Phantoms of Your Former Self]]": Damek permits the vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac to drink his blood directly from his neck.
120	** "[[Recap/InterviewWithTheVampire2022S1E5AVileHungerForYourHammeringHeart A Vile Hunger for Your Hammering Heart]]": Rashid willingly submits to receiving a KissOfTheVampire from Louis. Rashid even stuffs himself with honey and pineapple for days before offering himself to his boss in order to make his blood taste sweeter.
121	* In ''Series/LostGirl'', main protagonist Bo is a succubus who feeds on the sexual chi of others, usually during sex as the chi is strongest when the donor is sexually aroused. It is established earlier in the series that she accidentally killed her first boyfriend when she was unable to control her pull during her first sexual encounter. While she is first learning to control her powers, Dyson, a wolf-shifter with regenerative powers, willingly serves as her food source. Later, when she has more control, she shifts to Lauren, a human doctor who works for the Fae and with whom Bo shares a mutual attraction.
122	* ''Series/{{Moonlight}}'': Some vampires like Josef Kostan prefer to keep a harem of human women (or men) to feed on occasionally. They usually don't mind.
123	* ''Series/StargateAtlantis'': Sheppard willingly offers up his life force to a Wraith in order to give said Wraith enough energy to defeat their pursuers and ensure their escape. Of course, this forces him to trust the Wraith to give it back afterward. [[spoiler:He does.]]
124	* In season 2 of ''Series/TheVampireDiaries'', Stephan is trying to wean himself back on human blood for a power boost against the increasing number of enemies popping up. His girlfriend Elena offers her blood.
125	[[/folder]]
126
127	[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
128	* In ''TabletopGame/GURPSTechnomancer'', the effects of KissOfTheVampire are so pleasurable, it's possible to become ''addicted'' to it.
129	* In ''TabletopGame/VampireTheMasquerade'', has the "Herd" background as well. There are people known in Vampire society as "Blood Dolls", humans addicted to the way the Kiss makes them feel who enjoy being fed on by Vampires. On a more positive note, the [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire Salubri Clan]]'s flaw made them unable to gain sustenance other than from a willing victim.
130	** In ''TabletopGame/VampireTheMasqueradeFifthEdition'', both the positive and negative aspects are more pronounced: There is a whole Predator Type called Consensualist who only feeds from people who at least know and accept they're giving away their blood (though they may or may not know their partner isn't just indulging a kink). Sticking to this type of feeding actually increases the starting Humanity of the vampire. However, the game's rules make getting fed on more dangerous as well: Elders who have the resources to safely set up herds also draw so little sustenance from human blood that they need to drink more of it. There is also a discipline power that enhances the effect of the bite, giving the victim strong bonuses to their stats from their high. The downside is that it settles them with an addiction after the first "hit" and a hellish withdrawal period that will have them come crawling back within days. Fun fact: To preserve the long-term health of your herd, you're not supposed to feed from a single person more than once or twice a month.
131	* In ''TabletopGame/VampireTheRequiem'', the "Herd" Merit grants a pool of willing victims that a vampire can automatically get blood from, which can represent anything from random people who've become addicted to the KissOfTheVampire to a {{Cult}} founded in the vampire's name.

134	[[folder:Theatre]]
135	* In ''Theatre/LittleShopOfHorrors'', when Seymour accidentally discovers that the Audrey II plant feeds on human blood, he feeds it his own.
136	[[/folder]]
137
138	[[folder:Video Games]]
139	* In ''Videogame/BaldursGateIII'', when Astarion reveals himself to be a vampire he'll ask if he can feed on you in order to quench his thirst, thus making him more effective in battle. The blood loss gives the donor a minor penalty to most actions until they rest or receive a [[AntiDebuff Lesser Restoration]] spell.
140	* ''VideoGame/{{Boktai}} 2'': After [[KidHero Django]] is turned into a vampire, his admirer [[CuteBruiser Lita]] will offer him her blood should he visit her at night. However, biting her will result in a NonStandardGameOver.
141	* ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaLordsOfShadow2'': Gabriel Belmont is tricked into biting [[FemmeFatale Carmilla]], unaware that her blood will turn him into her slave. In order to save him, his wife Marie descends from Heaven to let him feed on her so her blood can purify the corruption.
142	* ''VideoGame/GuiltyGear'': Slayer the vampire regularly feeds on the blood of his wife, Sharon. She's okay with it because she's immortal, so she won't actually be hurt even if he drains her completely.
143	* ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEBlIddHKJk Puzzatales]]'' story ''Bite My Valentine'' has a vampire fall in love with a girl in goth-like clothing, but she thinks he's just a regular creep. He lets himself gets captured when he can't obtain love - but the girl changes her mind after reading a newspaper.
