You reach into your mouth and pull out the fly completely unharmed, it lookes a bit traumatised but it'll be fine. Surely. (set: $fly to true) [[Phew, crisis averted|Choice1]] [[Pop it back in your mouth and eat it |Consume the fly]]

You struggle to breathe as the fly is stuck in your throat, when suddenly it just flys out your mouth. [[Phew!|Choice1]] [[I must seek revenge|Consume the fly]]

(if:$fly is false)[You triumphently eat the fly, but just as your celebrating your victory against the fly... you remember you don't have a acid based digestive system, and the fly contuinues to buzz around your stomach. Congrats.](else-if: $fly is true)[You put the fly back into your mouth and swallow it, why? You can't even digest it because of your alien nature. I don't know why you did that. I'm very dissapointed.] [[Head on out|Choice1]]

You stand pondering on the human's door mat. You think of your options of obtaining food and are left with two options. [[Hunt for your survival]] [[Go to a store to buy food]]

You decide the only way to survive is to gather and hunt for your food. The first on your list of sustenance to gather is eggs. Luckily you see a nest in a tree nearby, and it's ungarded by the birthgiving "mother" creature. [[Look around for something useful]] [[Climb up the tree]] [[Search the area for the "mother" of the eggs]] (if:$raygun is true)[[Fire your raygun at the branch under the nest]]

You begin walking over to the shopping are when your "neighboor" begins aproaching you, with a slight frown on his beard covered face [[Approach your neighboor]] [[Power walk away]] (if:$raygun is true)[[Shoot him with your raygun to avoid social interaction]]

You search the area and find a large rock and pick it up. It is heavy but throwable if used correctly. [[Throw the rock at the branch]] [[Stand on the rock to reach higher]]

You climb the tree, but roughly at the pace of an earth "Slothling", because you aren't yet used to the gravity of this planet. You can reach the nest, but the branch is quite thin. [[(set:$branch to true)Climb over to the nest|Nest2]] [[(set:$branch to false)Knock the nest off with a stick|Nest3]]

You do not see a creature resembling any sort of birth giver in the area. [[Leave them be, and look for some other food]] [[Go for the eggs]]

You throw the rock at the branch and you hit it perfectly head on. The nest along with the eggs begins to quickly fall down. [[Catch the nest]] [[Let it fall|Nest3]]

You stand on the rock but your just too short to reach the nest. [[Search the area for the "mother" of the eggs]] [[Throw the rock at the branch]] [[Climb up the tree]] (if:$raygun is true)[[Fire your raygun at the branch under the nest]]

You fire your raygun at the branch and you hit it perfectly head on. The nest along with the eggs begins to quickly fall down. [[Catch the nest]] [[Let it fall|Nest3]]

You dive under the nest, and it lands on you cushioning it's fall perfectly. The eggs appear to unscathed. [[Examine the eggs|Nest1]]

You climb over to the nest but the branch is too weak to support you. You and the nest go toppling off the tree and the eggs crack on the ground. [[Eat them anyway|Eat the eggs whole]] [[Leave them be, and look for some other food]] [[Put the eggs in your bag and move on]]

The eggs are mostly intact! You can now consume them if you like. [[Eat the eggs whole]] [[Find a way to crack them open]] [[Go to your human residence to prepare them]]

The nest falls to the ground brreaking all of the eggs. [[Eat them anyway|Eat the eggs whole]] [[Leave them be, and look for some other food]] [[Put the eggs in your bag and move on]]

You deem it not worth the trouble and decide to go find the next on your list, milk. (set:$eggs to false) [[Purchase milk from store]] [[Hunt for the milk makers]]

The eggs were somewhat bland, but had a satysfying crunsh. Sadly, due to the fact that your species is not adjusted to human diseaseas, the effects of salmonella hit and kill you almost instantly. You have failed your mission, and lost your promotion, the mother of the eggs would be dissapointed.

You hit them on your heaad, smashing the open. You are now covered in egg. [[Eat the eggs whole]] [[Go to your human residence to prepare them]]

You head back home, deeming it too dangerous out in the wild. When you reach home, you realize you no idea whatsoever how to use human cookwear. [[Wing it]] [[Read a cooking narative on the morning beverage table]]

You turn on the flame creator by turning the strange dial, shortly after you put the cracked eggs direcly onto the flame. You think you have around 20 earth minutes before your eggs are done. [[Take a temporary rest to waste time]] [[Watch them as they cook]]

You open the narrative but you can not understand the language written onto the pages. [[Wing it]]

You watch them go from clear to appaque over the coarse of a minute or so, adn then browwner, and then almost black. You might want be be worried. [[It's for the flavour]] [[Probably should turn off the fire creator]] [[Take a rest, it will sort itself out|Take a temporary rest to waste time]]

You almost instantly fall asleep in your human cacoon. Around 40 minutes later you awake to the smell of smoke. You try to escape the burning residence, but to no avail. You have failed your mission, and lost your promotion, your boss would be dissapointed

You let it contuinue cooking, until eventually it catches fire. [[Uh oh]]

You turn off your fire creator and you have finished cooking your earth eggs, which is currently a shade of black. They are somewhat rare (even though you prefer your flooble eggs well done). [[Eat them, and call it a day]] [[Leave them be, and look for some other food]] [[Put the eggs in your bag and move on]]

The house catches fire faster than you can catch on to whats happening, "Why would they design an egg like this' you ask yourself. You try to escape the burning residence, but to no avail. You have failed your mission, and lost your promotion, your boss would think you were an idiot space ration.

You eat your eggs and decide to end your mission, as you have exceeded your effort amount for the day. When your boss arives on the planet you don't get your promotion but you live to see another day and you were'nt fired.

You decide to go for the eggs. [[Look around for something useful]] [[Climb up the tree]] (if:$raygun is true)[[Fire your raygun at the branch under the nest]]

(set:$eggs to true)You put the eggs in your consumption bag and decide to go find the next on your list, milk. [[Purchase milk from store]] [[Hunt for the milk makers]]

(if: $skinsuit is true)["Howdy their neighboor! I was wondering if you've seen my dog, he sandly ran away yesterday" he says. You don't remember seeing a dog.](if:$skinsut is false)["Howdy their neighboor!" he exclaims "Nice costume looks just like an alien, just wonderin if you've seen my dog Bucky around nearby, he's been missing for a while] [[Point him in a random direction]] [[Shake your head]] [[Nod]] (if:$skinsuit is true)[[No witnesses, he can not know you are an alien]]

You begin to power walk away from your neighboor, when he begins to jog after you shouting to you "Hey neighboor!" clearly trying to get your attention. [[Run away|Flee the scene]] [[Go talk to him|Approach your neighboor]]

You aim your raygun at his head and fire, sending him flying into the house behind him, knocking him out, and buying you some time. [[Flee the scene]]

You go to the store after the "interaction" your neighboor. You are getting close to the store and you should probably decide how your going to enter [[Door]] [[Window]] [[Door in the back]] [[Ventilation system]]

He sighs "Thanks for the help partner, see you later" he mumbles. He walks back into his house and closes the door. [[Leave and go to the store|Flee the scene]]
