"I'm getting hungry for supper. Do I have to eat those weird shapes again? There is nothing wrong with them but, meh..."
"Don't worry... We have foods from your time as well. We eat them like snacks instead of full course meal."
"Ah sweet. Can you take me there?"
"Done."
They arrived in front of a figure resembling vending machine. What differs it from the normal vending machine is that it serves all sort of foods. It has drinks, fast foods, desserts and even cooking ingredients.
"Wow... we still use vending machines in the far future? But... I don't know if my cash would fit into the slot. I don't even know what currencies you use in future."
"The process is quite simple really."
"Then how?"
"You just have to give up your lifespan."
"What the fuck!"
"Just kidding. For currency, you have to destroy one of your belonging, anything in front of the camera on the screen. Watch."
Jetson summoned a flower vase and smashed it to pieces. A selection menu appeared on screen with various food items to choose.
"In future, if you want to buy something you have to break something you own as a payment. If you're naked, you need to hurt yourself in order to buy things, like break one of your fingers or toes to minimize the total damage.
But when we encounter with a living being merchant, who is not a machine, we have to satisfy them with something almost equally valuable such as for example: If you want to buy a car, you have to burn your garage and if you want a medical treatment, you have to break one of your body part that is fine. But don't worry, they will also repair that part back along with your illness."
"What the fuck!"
