Does the not-in-combat Blood Brother paying for
damage with Brothers' Blood (text: "This vampire
can burn his or her own blood to heal or prevent
destruction from damage taken by a member of this
circle in combat.") count as "taking" the damage
for purposes of, eg, Masochism ("Whenever damage
is successfully inflicted on this vampire, put 1
rush counter on this card for each point of damage.")
or Ex Nihilo ("this vampire is immune to non-
aggravated damage.")?

I'm guessing it doesn't work, due to the "burn blood"
phrasing (rather than some hypothetical "take the
damage for" phrasing), but wanted to check.
Thanks,
Josh
ex what?
