Funnily enough, for all the Pints and Brews that "Lloyd" Bartender Drones often offer up on the Space Rigs, it's quite rare to see them actually offering some food! Sure, the Mess will occasionally offer Glyphid Omelettes for the Adventurous and there's no shortage of signs that Noodles are an apparent favourite of someone who clearly forgot where the Bin is, but aside from that? There's only been one real occasion of Snacks available on the Space Rig and that's during (R)O©ktoberfest.

So what if you find yourself deep down below the Crust and feel a craving for more than the smell of brimstone and the bounties of minerals? Thankfully, some of the more Stable Systems of the planet hold a rare sight on Hoxxes for those not in the Dense Biozone Sector, Water! Such Aquatic abodes have become host to entire Ecosystems of fish thriving in the relatively safe waters with only the odd risk from a passing Glyphid here and, more recently, maybe some misplaced ordinance there.

With larger beasts revealed by Sonar Scans proven to be deeper in the depths, it's no wonder many of these Fluttery Fish call the Shallows home. While not OFFICALLY Endorsed by Company policy, for the right price, a pod with some "Specialist Equipment" can be dispatched to mining team that find and secure such openings. Some among Management question why there has been Helmet Camera recordings found of Miners taking time to Fish between Fights, but such complaints are often silenced by the fact that those very same Miners would likely be flooding the Data Logs from such Expeditions with repeated, prolonged use of the Laser Pointer on Chunks of Minerals or the Local Wildlife anyway. So was getting their Miners to gather their own food really a bad thing by comparison?

Either way, it seems that one of the Company's more Adorable Miners has taken a chance to rest up for a few moments and share a bite to eat with some of the tamer wildlife he has come across, a welcome reprieve from the Daily Dangers that crawl, fly and hide in the Caverns between us and our quota. Eat up well Con, the Minerals can wait a little longer for us. Rock and Stone!
