I wouldn't ask Maribel to touch a significant amount of ichor unless it was important, but since we already cleaned the sheet somewhat, it should be a comparatively minor amount. Maybe.

>In theory, at least. While her humanity is in danger, you don't think that it should harm her in that sense. You aren't certain that it makes it safe for her touch it, as there are certainly other ways it could be harmful.
