"I'm a chef, not a doctor...or engineer, god dxmn it!" My whining echos in the empty cabin, bouncing, finally absorbed by the half-finished refinery frame.
When's the last time I cooked a decent meal? Just MREs, then after the crash only synthetic food! Tasteless, fluid, weird liquid, hell we even ran out of flavouring cartridge, had to bypass that circuit-thingy to persuade food synthesizer back to work... Thank you! Leading brand company, and thanks we wish to use the machine with an empty cartridge! And NO don't order a new one online because we are in frigging middle of nowhere! God I hate these machines.
So...back to food, yes, no more MREs, we've ran out of them for several weeks, I think. And all these alien ships comes out of nowhere starting to attack us, wonder what kind of food they are eating, maybe we can "borrow" some from them, right? Taking stuff from hostile is booty, not stolen right? Cos you need to be the last one standing to carry it home...
Arrr, where were we? Right Alien food, so the aliens are riding weird ships, like scorpions...or crab? Haven't count the legs yet, the prob encoutered that ship was destroyed before getting more visual results, man these aliens are quite hostile.
Hmmm, legs, what if this alien race is actually arthropod? Like crab...people? Giant, leggy crabs, driving warships, man that sounds insane! But the crab part kind of reminds me of some thing, hmmm, what was it? Right, legs, crab legs, they taste great after boiling, just add a bit salt and...WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING! They are intellectual, they might have family and kids! God, I must be crazy without food, proper food, I mean, of course...
But hey...alien crab doesn't count as people, right? I mean, they are not human, so if we eat them, it's not considered as cannibalism cos they are not like us, which makes sense...and if the aliens are big, we can get quite some edible parts from them, if we managed to capture one of course, heard someone's already working on that, guess the head scientist would "exam" on the first alien, if the leftovers, I mean "expired speciments" as they call it, are good enough then probably I can ... now where did I put those salt pack again? maybe I can talk to the life support guy, see if I can get some pure ice, melt back to water, oh and a bit of pepper would be nice.
After all, a chef has to be resourceful, right?
