Two people entered the room and brought some food with them. “It has been quite a while since we have met. Perhaps we could use some nourishment?” Mean said.

GM

Reia took out her tricorder and began to scan the food with relation to the physiology of her and her companions.

“Thank you, that’s most appreciated.”

  • Reia

The tricorder showed that the food was suitable for most Federation races.

“Could you tell us what it is?” Thomas asked, hoping he could get through the explanation without his stomach rumbling. It had been several hours since a rather unsatisfying lunch for him, after all.

COS

“We have brought about bread stuffed with meats and vegetables,” said Menn.

According to the tricorder, the bread was made with a grain that was very similar to wheat, and the stuffing was made up of meat that was very much similar to chicken. The vegetable part were some root of a plant and the leaves of the same type of plant, similar to onions and scallion.

GM

Reia put the tricorder away, smiled, and helped herself. Due to her higher than average metabolism she was actually quite hungry.

Thomas gave a small grin, before taking a hot pocket for himself. This was the second straight mission where he’d been able to sample alien cuisine, certainly more than he’d ever expected before taking a ship-board post.

It definitely tasted good, and was warm. “Is this a good example of the kinds of things your people eat?” he asked. A culture’s dietary habits said a lot about them, after all. This meal at least indicated that the preparing species were omnivorous.

COS

Ben smiled as he took a bite with his eyes closed to fully experience the deliciousness of the bread with stuffed meat and vegetables. After the initial bite, it reminded him of home.

“This is a usual snack for our people on this continent,” explained Menn, “The other continents have food that are particular to their region.”

GM

“Of course,” Thomas nodded. “It’s much the same on our homeworld, various areas have foods that they produce more easily than another, and they incorporate them into dishes that become a signature for that region. My ancestors turned moss into alcohol and found a way to use almost every last bit of one of our livestock animals for food,” he offered.

Reia stood and glanced around for the exit.

“I’ll return shortly.” she said slipping out the door.

She was under no allusion that she wasn’t being watched and, if she wasn’t, she should have been. Sighing, she commed the Genesis and gave them a full status report ending with how they were now having snacks while waiting to be handed off to somebody further up the food chain. She also uploaded all the data they had acquired thus far.

=^=Now what happened with you? I tried to reach you earlier, but nothing.=^=

-Reia, CIO/Comms

=^=We were dealing with a difficult race called the Lescoo. They say the Messi belong to them and were trying to get us to leave.=^= Tom replied to Reia.

  • Tom, IntSec

COS

Reia didn’t recognize the voice of the person she was talking to but the ship was large.

=^=And how did you deal with them?=^= she asked.
