nervously laughs while stabbing a straw in blood pack and drinking it like a Capri Sun mmm my own blood that is mine and belongs to me and is not from other people haha.

    It's called blood doping. Lance Armstrong did it. You take out your own blood, centrifuge it to get the red blood cells (RBCs) out, then store the RBCs in a freezer. Before a competitive event, you re-inject your RBCs back into yourself to increase your blood's ability to carry oxygen. So the queen has some of her blood removed and then re-injects it before she has to do an endurance event.
