Common hospital days

Who: Kevn, Rico
where: mess hall
when: after 5 songs
Kevn being rather sober due to his medication sat and watched as
Rico did a handstand and ate a burger. Kevn got up and went to the
nearby doctor. "Hey doc. When's the first shuttle leaving for Blue
Dwarf? I'm kinda homesick..."
"Really? Hmmm... I don't know when they're beginning the transports
right now. Since the Welsh are still operating in the area and
they've taken more captives it could be a while."
"What?" Kevn asked then shook his head, "Never mind..."
Kevn rubbed his now aching hip, "Great... I'm locked in a stinking
hospital, with only Rico, the other wounded, a bunch of doctors and
nurses, and my aching hip!" Kevn went over to the portable food
dispenser. It buzzed to life, "Hello. How may I help you?"
"Give me a mutton vindaloo, and a sports drink."
"What kind of sports drink?"
"Random..."
"Sir?"
"Random." Kevn repeated.
"Random? Sir that's not a flavor."
"No, I'll have any flavor."
"Sir, you must choose one. Or I might give you rotten fish
flavored."
"If you do. I'll make you wish you were a condom dispenser." Kevn
said coldly.
The machine paused... "cherry it is! Have a nice day! SIR!" it gave
him his order.
"Thank you. Now that wasn't so hard now was it?"
The machine didn't respond. Kevn sat at the table. Rico was
listening to his small boombox with a pair of headphones attatched
to his ears. Kevn began eating slowly, tired from his painkillers,
he chewed the piece of meat, letting the curry drown his tongue.
This, woke him up. He began to gobble the curry down. Then he took a
swig of the sports drink, he paused. It wasn't cherry at all... It
was grape...
Even though he didn't mind the taste of grape, it was still a
surprise. He quickly swallowed and began to cough. In the back, the
dispensing machine was laughing. Kevn pretended he couldn't hear
it, "What should we do now?" Kevn asked Rico.
"How about we find a lovely bunch of nurses..."
"No," Kevn said.
"Why not?"
"Because all the nurses are busy, and we don't want to disturb
them."
"Then.."
"No, we can't go and play pool either..."
"Why?"
"Because there are no pool cues for the table."
"Then why do I see a pool table over there?"
"Because they used that as a surgical table..."
"How about poker, I brought my cards."
Kevn nodded, "Poker it is..."
