After suggesting a fry up to Pex, Lieutenant Trei piped up.  “I would like
to try a New Zealand fry up sometime. It sounds good.”



Fortunately, Tegian added "I don't know what consists of a 'New Zealand fry
up', but I have no aversion to meat.  If you're offering, I would love to
take you up on it.  But, yes, just tea for the moment.  I've been up for
hours working and just needed a break."



“Bacon, eggs, sausage, mushrooms, tomatoes, and toast.  None of that black
pudding or baked beans the Pom’s like so much,” she said.  “You can have
normal bread, but it’s best with a Maori fry bread, in my opinion.” She
told the table.  “I’m not much of a cook, my mum didn’t let me in the
kitchen, and with replicators, it’s a bit easier.  I do have the replicator
recipe with my gear.  Perhaps in the coming days.”



Tegian spoke up again, " Ensign Piripi, I've been studying your VISOR
schematics and your implants and I understand now what happened back in the
shuttle.  There was nothing I could have done to prevent it, but if you
still want to continue to wear a VISOR and not change to a different
technology, I've come up with some additional designs that will never put
you in harm's way again."



"This would totally be your choice and I would first have Lieutenant Bohb
here review all the schematics and study your implants to understand what
is required.  But, it's possible to provide you a wider spectrum and
greater distance with less energy requirements than the current model
you're using.  The VISOR would also be much smaller than your current one."



Pihi chuckled, “I was born without an optic nerve and most of the current
technologies require an optic nerve to connect to.  I don’t understand what
the doctors did, but this one works just fine.  I really appreciate you
looking into it, and your designs, but for now, I’d rather not be trying to
relearn now to ‘see’ as it were.  Besides, I think this one goes with my
tattoo, don’t. you?”
