[ at least he's not telling her that she can't. she appreciates that much, at least, even in her low battery mode. she's too stubborn to be told 'you're not allowed to do this'.
and she might have thanked him for the offer, if they weren't pulling into the parking lot of the blood bank. maybe it's a bad idea for caroline to bolt out of the car and run inside... but she does it anyway, with not even a 'be right back' in her wake before she's pushing the doors open and hitting up the counter.
the woman inside is a little... perplexed at her appearance, but everything seems to be in order (shout out to el) so caroline leaves with a cryo-cooled box of b-positive blood bags, enough of a supply for a week's transfusions. or one day's starving vampire worth, give or take.
maybe she should wait, too, to dive in until they're out of the parking lot... but caroline also doesn't do that. instead, she pulls one to her mouth the literal second she sits back down, sucking it in like the first capri sun after forty years in the desert. ]
