Has the glitter been determined to be comprised of materials that are toxic to them?

[theheroics]

uhhh really cant say for sure. it was the glitter that was falling from the sky

so it shouldnt be toxic right??

[beshackled]

I know not what species your friend is, so I am afraid I cannot say.

There is also the nature of this place and how we manifest within it to consider. 'Tis likely fine... but pray tell them not to ingest substances in the future until they know it will not poison them.

[theheroics]

right. good call. itll never happen again thats for sure

[ Even though it probably will, one way or another. ]

but glitter isnt normally poison right?

[beshackled]

Too much of even a good thing can cause an imbalance the body may not be able to handle.

How long ago was the glitter consumed? If it is too much, 'tis likely the effects will be felt within the day, unless your friend's metabolism is slow.

[theheroics]

uhhh my stoma they its only been a couple of hours since they ate it. feelin kindof a stomach ache

and maybe about a fist full? but thats still a lot for glitter

[beshackled]

Are you feeling unwell?

[theheroics]

idk i mean ive felt worst before but this?

i swear if i live ill never do it again

[beshackled]

'Tis good that you are learning from your mistakes at least.

If you begin to feel severely unwell, pray seek out a healer. The substance may need to be removed if it causes you too much harm.

[theheroics]

not sure what a healer could do for whats already in my insides but if it gets bad enough ill see

thanks for the advice. not that is really makes me feel any better

[beshackled]

Theoretically, they could help you to survive long enough for your body to metabolize that which you have consumed.

Though, for what it is worth, if time has passed and a stomach ache is all you feel, it could merely be stress. The glitter does not feel as though it is made from glass or crystal.

[theheroics]

oh yeah i guess they could do that. but man ur painting a real dark picture here...

but thats all worst case scenarios! im sure thats all it is! stress!

[beshackled]

Aye.

Pray forgive me if I added to your worries.

[theheroics]

nah ur just trying to help. i get it.

just learning my lesson today

[beshackled]

[He's learned. Hopefully. That's good.]

From what else is written here, I gather you attempted to consume snow as a manner of treat?

[theheroics]

yeah another mistake apparently

its normally just frozen water so whats the harm right?

[beshackled]

So long as it is fresh and unmixed with any unpalatable substances, I cannot say I see any harm in it.

[theheroics]

see! so i didnt do anything wrong! not that my body really cares

ill be sure to let you know if i make it out alive
and if you dont? well... guess youll know

[beshackled]

[Keep phrasing things like that and he's going to worry.]

Have you anyone to stay with you? It appears as though you are still nervous.

[theheroics]

nervous? im not nervous!

but yeah i live with someone and got a great healer on hand. ill be fiiiine

[beshackled]

I am glad.

I shall await news of your recovery.

[theheroics]

thanks man i appreciate that

[ He'll probably hear back from Zack soon... once he's probably passed out for an hour or so ]
