[ In the chaos of him falling asleep and waking up he hasn't checked in on the newest member of the Nebula. Once everything seems to have settled, he grabs his phone to shoot out a message. ] Tobias, I don't know if Han Suyeong let you know that I was indisposed, but I am awake again. I figured I should check in with you. She mentioned you might be starting a book club?
But yeah. I thought we'd start with poetry before dragging people into a whole novel, just so people could get the general atmosphere of the group and decide whether or not they wanted to commit to showing up with these people.
I have a book of Emily Dickinson poems. A lot of those are pretty good for discussion. But if anyone else has poetry they want to bring I'm happy to read that too.

Are there any poets you have in mind?
