Posted by Vice Admiral CockRoach (GM) in Main Sim - Mess Hall - Chat With Elm
[snip]

Elm looked to El, “..You would share your.....your food?” She seemed in awe that the woman would do so. “..Not even the Great Greyhound Saviors did this!” She said falling into step with El as her stomach rumbled.

El moved along with Elm, curiously noting the similarities in their names. She paced herself and visibly heard her stomach rumbling. Had it come to that that quickly that food was that scarce there? She glanced at Elm. “How are you feeling?” she asked. Sickbay would be quite active for a while. El thought they could stop by for a bite. “Here, let’s grab a bite before getting you checked out.” She steered Elm toward the lift to go up to B deck and the Galley. Mentally she computed the ‘ship’ time to figure what would be available there. She wondered what would be talked about with the Captain and the XO, but thought that any others in that meeting would include the chief engineer. Roger would likely be there; he could speak better than she could.

As the two entered the mess hall, the ship’s time was roughly now going on midnight, there were a few on hand selections in the food case but unless El wanted to wake up the ship’s chef the current selection of cold mac/cheese, a hotdog and bun, and a cheesecake slice would have to suffice.

Things were sparse here but then, as El glanced at the chrono on the wall, that was to be expected. “We get leftovers for a midnight snack,” El said to her. Given the similarities of the worlds she felt reasonably confident she could describe things. “This here is a mix of a pasta and cheese. Pretty good when its hot, to me.” She glanced at the kitchen. “I could try heating it up for us.” She pointed to the other. “Bread and a hot dog - a kind of meat. Nobody really knows what though. You’d add other things onto that from that dispenser there to add taste. And this here is sweet. Dessert cake. I’ll recommend us doing hot dogs.”

She picked one up, popped it inside a bun with Elm in view to show her. “Please don’t judge us on our midnight food selection,” she said with a smile. “So what did you do on your world? School? Did you work? Have a boyfriend?”
