dolariContinuing on the Storytelling thing from yesterday, a quick scene from inside that dream about the Starship Alexandria:
Manu (the man who is chosen to pilot the Alexandria) and Celeste (The friend he asks to come along) are seeing each other for the first time in two weeks) and getting ready to sit down for a dinner.
Manu: Alexandria, dinner please.
He gets a block of what looks like processed cheese.
Manu: I know this stuff is protein and nanites and it will keep me alive and fit for as long as I want...but I may not want to last very long. This crap tastes like an iron pipe.
Celeste: This ship is 45 miles long, and I just spent two weeks exploring some of it. Have you just been eating those blocks all that time?
Manu: And I'm already very tired of it.
Celeste: Oh, for Pete's sake. This ship contains the whole of Earth's public knowledge as of three weeks ago! IT KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT OUR WORLD. Alexandria, Duck L'Orange, Version Number 9971214Beta. Oh, and a Pinot Noir. Version number...I don't know...surprise me.
She gets a beautiful plate of Duck L'Orange.
Manu: Is that....
Celeste: Protein and nanites, made to look, taste and smell like the Duck L'Orange and Pinot Nior...although now that I think about it, I probably should have said an Earth Wine? Could be something from...Melmac or Vulcan. Wherever ALF is from.
Manu: I...I didn't know it could do that. Can I just have a small bite?
Celeste: Eat your lead pipe first, Manu, then we'll talk.
