The doctor nodded with a smile in greeting to the two current occupants of the galley.  He had meant to protest to the aforementioned food, trying not to be a burden, but it was set down in front of him before the opportunity arose for an objection.  Instead, the man offered a smile.  "Thanks, Adam."<br/><br/>The tall blond took a set of his own utensils before taking a seat near the other man, cutting into the bread and bringing some of the delicious smelling dish to his lips where it disappeared into his mouth.  It was not as elegant as he was used to with dining, but he supposed that the entire situation was not what he was used to.  So far, it seemed like a more extreme version of his first voyage to another world 15 years ago.  The ship was not as rickety as their current vessel, but the feel was similar with an essence of uncertainty in the air.<br/><br/>"Eh.  It's handling the samples fine.  The problem is the time it takes.  The machines are quite dated.  I remember them just going obsolete when learning about them on my first mission collection tissue samples."  He turned to his two meal companions with a smile of optimism.  "It will all work out though.  If it breaks down, I'm sure I can get Elle or Halcy to take a look at it."  The blond turned back to his meal, taking another bite.
