[She perks up a little, looking excited and happy for him to have a friend here form his world. It's hard enough to be here all by yourself; at least a familiar face makes it a little more bearable.
His question gives her pause and she stares at him for a moment in confusion before she seems to remember that yeah, no everyone would know what the hell that was. Capable laughs, embarrassed]
Well... I think I mentioned it before, that most people are what's called a "half-life"? The War Boys are Immortan Joe's army. Fanatics willing to die for him without a second thought. [She purses her lips, disapproving, and shakes her head] Full-lifes who are healthy are usually tied up and forced to give blood to the ill War Boys, so they can go for longer. Sometimes brought into battle with them even. That's how we met Max.
Honestly, it's a miracle he survived through it... [She'd never bothered to ask what kind of blood Max had--it wasn't relevant to her--but she figures he must've had a good type.]
Everyone just calls them 'blood bags.' I'm not really sure if there's a different name for them, actually.
