Tasting Vicariously

Albert pulls up to the house, and you slide out the back, licking your fingers of the last of the chocolates.

"Seriously, your as bad as Rick," says Albert.

"Once I get out, everything's going to taste like flaming garbage," you counter, "Can you blame me for wanting one last taste of things before that happens?

Albert grumbles a little, "Just don't go overboard," he asks as he walks in through the door. You follow, but hit your head, not used to Ricks height. You rub your head and duck through.

Fred is playing video games, you see the hole in the floor has been partially cleared, and walk around it. You notice that the breakfast Fred prepared, and quickly move over, soaking a pancake in syrup and eating it. It's cold, but tastes great to you, and you quickly finish off the left overs.

"How was your day?" said Fred to Albert, somewhat frustrated.

"Um... interesting," says Albert, "Yours?"

"I got to try cleaning out a giant hole in my floor, alone," he says, "Guess how that went?"

You feel guilty about that. You could have stayed and helped. You lick the syrup off your hands, then move to the hole, and gather up the rest of the broken planks. Fred Hears you and takes notice, "Geez, who or what is that!" he says, started by an apparent stranger in his home.

"Just me," you say as you gather things up. "Like the new look?"

"He accidently possessed a friend at the gym... after debatably driving him to an eating frenzy... " says Albert.

"And I can taste things again!" you say happily. Ducking out the door so you can pile the broken planks near the garbage. Before heading back in.

"...ow to get him out." you hear Albert say as you come in, explaining to Fred the situation.

"Can't he just... will himself out." Asks Fred.

"Not sure it works that way," you say, "I didn't 'will' myself in to begin with. Do we have any cookies?" you walk over to the pantry and begin searching.

"I told you, stop going overboard," says Albert as you pull a box of cookies out and begin munching on them, "That's not your body."

"Well there has to be some way to do it." says Fred
