Translations:Codex: Mimbranes/25/en

Mimbranes ingest host secretions that pass through their borrowed mouths by absorbing them into the skin surround the opening in a manner similar to breathing. This action does not require the same amount of movement, however, and usually goes undetected by hosts. The exception goes for parasites lacking a borrowed spout, who use their natural mouths in a manner similar to all other living creatures in order to collect what they crave. When located on extremities such as hands, Mimbrane will attempt to push themselves to a visible source when hungry.
