Only if we buy it along the way at a waystation or on a planet. The stuff that gets stocked automatically is just that gel and "solid" stuff...

[Keith was definitely annoyed and disappointed. He understands what you're feeling, Romelle.]

We're usually pretty good at picking things up for each other, though.

[soughttruth]

Thank goodness!

[Her enthusiasm for that is clearly evident. Then she laughs a little sheepishly.]

Pardon me, I'm afraid the idea of ... well, this really does make me appreciate the idea of food storage more than I ever thought I would.

[tempredmental]

[That got a small laugh.]

Hunk would be proud of us all.

[Keith smirked a bit.]

Don't worry. You'll get used to it here. Just like traveling with us back home. I know things get crazy, and they do here, too, but it's not so terrible.

And there are less things trying to kill us here.

[soughttruth]

Or trying to pull some tricks beneath our noses.

[There's a distinct air of bitterness there. Though, given who their benefactors are here and the whole show aspect...]

I hope.

[tempredmental]

Yeah. That still remains to be seen, I guess.

[He gave her a weak smile.]

Hang in there. With everyone working on it, I'm sure we'll figure it out at some point.

[soughttruth]

I'll do my best. That's all that really can be done though, of course.

[Her own smile tilts a little.]

I do hope whatever is figured out though, it does include less wiggly food.

[tempredmental]

Yeah. [Keith shrugged a little.]

I'm sure we'll find something less... manufactured once we find a new system. Though, with how some alien food goes, I can't guarantee it won't be wiggly.

[soughttruth]

Oh some wiggle is to be expected really. Do you not have any traditional foods like that?

[She was raised up on traditional Altean cuisine, you know. For the most part.]

[tempredmental]

I guess. I mean, we have stuff that wiggles... stuff that's runny, or mushy... or slimy... or even gooey. There are a lot of different kinds of food where I'm from, so we have a lot of different textures.

[Hunk could probably give her specific examples of everything, but Keith's knowledge wasn't quite so vast.]

[soughttruth]

[Now she looks intrigued.]

Well then, it sounds as if this might just become some sort of taste testing tour!

[tempredmental]

Yeah, sure. We can do that. I'm just as new to it around here as you are, so... [He shrugged.] I guess we'll find out.

[At least she was into the idea.]
