SOMA | The Meme Dump
Don’t judge.
Jeremy whispers into a microphone on his mixing board.
JEREMY
Mic check. Check.
The words bounce between Jeremy’s scattered amplifiers. A loud electronic hiss emanates from the broken amp.
JEREMY
Goddamnit! Did you happen to bring any more of your Soma?
Levon digs under his blankets. His backpack is lying on his belly. He exposes a small bag of dried mushrooms and a large vacuum pack of white mycelium. He tosses Jeremy a small bag of mushrooms.
Jeremy catches it. His eyes widen.
JEREMY
Thank God! I’m embarrassed to have run out. June stole my reserves.
LEVON
June?
JEREMY
She came by last week looking for psychedelics. Some corporate retreat she’s planning. Levon? Are you still with us?
LEVON
I keep having hallucinations. A waterfall of disembodied vaginas, spilling over me.
JEREMY
That’s probably the morphine. I hope I didn’t give you too much. I forget what the normal dosage is. She asked about you by the way.
