"Hmmm, can't wait to test it out.Right now I'm starving babe."oops, that slipped out, hope she doesn't mind. Jet started walking out of the room and said as he turned right through the corrugated steel hallway towards the kitchen.I'm hungry for some slop.
He chuckled, slop was all they had and probably all they ever would with it being that there was no organic life on the surface.What would it be like, to have a dog? A real dog? Jet did have a real dog when he was still Jake Bronson. It was a great dog, a black lab that would lean on you until your knees cracked, and that would fetch everything you threw for it to get. Maybe it was too good. It was too good to be true that's for sure.
Jet took a final right turn and he was in the kitchen. It was slightly better lighted than the rest of the ship and the slop dispensers had been refilled just about an hour ago, so there was plenty of the goopy mess. Next to the dispensers were an assortment of rough and beaten tin bowls and and spoons. Jet reached across the short,small table where they were and grabbed a bowl and a spoon. He then placed the bowl under the dispenser and pulled down the release switch.
A thick, oozing liquid moosh came out at a steady pace and filled his bowl half way, then Jet pushed the switch back up and the ooze held. He turned behind him to the eating table, reminiscent of a highschool's lunchroom table, and sat down. He began to eat and this batch actually didn't taste half bad.
