UNDUE significance a starving man attaches
To food
Far off; he sighs, and therefore hopeless,
And therefore good.
Partaken, it relieves indeed, but proves us
That spices fly
In the receipt. It was the distance
Was savory.
This thread brought to you by Emily Dickinson.

Even so, Warren Berriman thought that Emily Dickinson probably should have gotten out of the house more often.

I wake up only a couple of minutes after Cambridge leaves, feeling great but a little odd about last night. I had wanted to talk with her about it, but something gives me a feeling that she probaly didn't want to talk. I call in and find out that yes I do have to do work for the secretary again, so I take a shower, get dressed and report in, and try not to think about last night...

(yeah..)
Grey convinces Jeremiah to bring him to poison control but not without some debate.
"Look, he's really sick."
"No, that's the demon fighting him. Vomiting happens in exorcisms." Jeremiah replies.
"I adjure thee, O serpent of old, by the Judge of the living and the dead; by the Creator of the world who hath power to cast into hell, that thou depart forwith from his house. He that commands thee, accursed demon, is He that commanded the winds, and the sea, and the storm. He that commands thee, is He that ordered thee to be hurled down from the height of heaven into the lower parts of the Earth. He that commands thee is He that bade thee depart from Him. Harken, then, Satan, and fear. Get thee gone, vanished and cowed, when thou art bidden in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, who will come to judge the living and the dead and all the world by fire. Amen." Jeremiah says to Andrew as he drives.
Grey becomes frustrated, pulls on the wheel, and almost crashes the van. Only then does Jeremiah decide to humor Grey and take Andrew to poison control.
He turns the van around and takes Andrew to a local clinic, helping him out of the van. They take him inside the clinic and the doctors and nurses take over from there.

Andrew gets his stomach pumped. This is... unpleasant.
"We're trying to find the kid's parents, to notify them..." a doctor nearby says.
Andrew digs around in his pocket a bit, to find his wallet so he can show them he's over 18... he's a little dizzy though.
"Fuck man... why did you do that? It doesn't say poison people with toxic household chemicals anywhere in The Bible!" Andrew berates 'Haniel' after the entire ordeal was over. Andrew is wearing a hospital gown, since his clothes are covered in vomit, and a little blood.
"I have chemical burns in places that don't even see the light of day!" Andrew's normally pleasant sounding voice is hoarse. Andrew coughs.

Once I finish writing up the information booklets I get on the phone and start calling around the world. In the end I wind up calling several major socialist groups, most notably the 4th Internationale and the Socialist Worker's Movement, and ask them to each send a small delegation, which they agree to. The tour and discussion will take place three days from now.
(All socialist characters are invited to attend)

Grey feels awful about everything. Jeremiah went on to do the bombings that they had planned, leaving Grey to watch Andrew.
"I really wouldn't know what an excorcism entails." Grey replies.
"HOLY rescued me from the SLA but in exchange for that, they have trained me to work for them." He says in a confused tone.
"At least you escaped the compound."

"A venus trap isn't so bad," Nea smiles, those are the only ones she really likes.

As I fly back to the United States I get the world that Grey is okay and can now have visitors. Immediately I tell Kolov that I will be taking a leave of absence to visit my only friend, and begin the trip to Texas to see him...

"It's about that time. Let's all head out to that cafe and see if Salome and Shura show up for dinner." Antero suggests.

HOURS LATER-
Cambridge arrives in Tel Aviv and goes directly to the SWM headquarters there (we'll assume for game purposes that there is one). Sie is tired and angry. Sie is mad at hirself for everything sie did in the past three days. But, hir comrades welcome hir warmly and give hir work to do right away. Later this week, they offer to take hir to a kibbutz. Sie is excited about this.
Sie takes hir work and returns to hir hotel room to start working on some articals. The work distracts hir and slowly sie starts feeling better.
"I was never like this before. It is time for me to go back to being the person I used to be."
Sie feels dirty and angry, but after a shower, enough time alone, and loads of work, sie starts to feel more like hir old self.

Nea, Niko, and Antero walk to the cafe. They all sit down and look over the menu. Shura and Salome are not yet there.
"I think I'll get a burger, fries, and a malt."
