Third Floor Common Room: Evening

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Jamie is half watching tv and half reading Entertainment Weekly and wondering just how much George Lucas can frak up his franchise even more with a TV Series.

Meanwhile the Food channel is doing a show on Roadhouse food and the craving for barbecue is becoming quite strong.

"Hi, Betty," Z said. "Oooh, food. On TV." It was like the best of both worlds.

"Hey Dorkface," Jamie said looking over his magazine to grin at Z. "Only problem is it's making me hungry. Channels like this make it difficult to keep my girlish figure."

"I have a synthetron," Z said, "but there are two problems. It's back in my room and I'm lazy, and I'm not sure how it does barbecue."

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"I'm assuming a synthetron thingie is like those gizmos on Galaxy Quest where you pop a button and food comes out?" Jamie asked. "And if you want I can have a dupe go get some real food. Doesn't have to be barbecue."

[multiplez]

"Pretty much, except the manual is in an alien language so the results are iffy. Ooh, hey, yeah." Z leaned over to poke Jamie. "Make a you get us food. Or I could make a me get us food, I guess..."

"Well if you're lazy, I'll send dupes out. What do you want? Pizza? Barbcue? Chinese? All of the above?" Jamie asked. "It all sounds good to me."

[multiplez]

"Hmm," Z contemplated. "I don't think there's a barbecue place on the island. But I could go for Chinese."

"Well I can send a dupe over the mainland for food too. Ah hell. Let's just get it all," Jamie said stomping his food on the floor.

"Go forth and get food!" Jamie ordered.

The dupes gave him a dirty look and headed out.

"Now the trick is to get them back with the food."

Inara wandered into the common room, carrying her teapot, and smiled automatically when she spotted people she didn't recognize. "Hello."

Jamie looked up and grinned. "Hi! Are you a fan of delicious flavor?"

[ambassadorinara.livejournal.com]

"Um..." She blinked. "I'm...not sure?"

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Sorry," Jamie laughed. "I'm hungry and trying to figure out what to send out for. Interested?"

[ambassadorinara.livejournal.com]

Inara considered, "I wouldn't mind eating, but I'm not that familiar with your food here yet. I'll just trust your judgment."

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Oh?" Jamie asked. "You sound pretty American. Where do you hail from?"

[ambassadorinara.livejournal.com]

"I'm from Shinon, which is a member of the United Alliance of Planets," she told him, managing not to make a face over the last part. "But the part you probably care about is where I'm from about five hundred years in the Earth's future."

"Oh, hi," Z said. "How's it going?"

[robinthefrog.livejournal.com]

"I Inara!" Robin waved. "Long time no see!"

Marco stopped in and starred at the food. "Someone needs to get technology where you can pull food out of the TV."

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Well someone around here must have it," Jamie replied. "I mean come on! It's an obvious thing to develop."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

"Exactly! You never need to cook again, just reach into the TV and viola!" Marco paused. "Except if it's the original Iron Chief show. That was scary."

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Never eat anything from guys who make ice cream from fish eyeballs," Jamie said. "That's a personal rule and guideline for me."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

"Eeeeeeeew." Marco summarized.

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

"Is there anything you'd eat from the iron chefs? Me? Don't think so."

[morpherboy.livejournal.com]

"American Iron Chief? Yeah, a lot actually, they're stuff looked good. Except that one with the power tools. That was just weird. And the salmon ice cream."

Robin had his headphones around his neck so he could hear the music, but also hear what was going on around him. Tonight's music to groove to, Loreena Mckennit.
