Bobert's Boredom
Bobert Billiamson was bored. There was quite some time before he'd reach the next planet on his quest, and his previously-obtained badges sparkled silently in the corner of the cockpit. He needed something to do... He checked the GalaxyNet for any new games or movies... Nothing was available that he hadn't seen or played a million times before. Then, a thought occurred to him.
He decided... he'd make something of his own. He went to the Replicator 9000 on board his ship, and started off with something simple. After putting on his glasses and pulling up an overlay of origami directions, he created some paper. However, he completely lacked the dexterity required for a task. Even something as simple as a paper airplane was out of his reach. Each time he threw one, it exploded once it hit the wall! Frustrated, he looked up another activity.
After replicating an artist's easel and some paint, he thought he'd try creating the next masterpiece. He looked around the drab environment for inspiration, but nothing seemed to strike him as useful. While he was looking around, he noticed the unusual solar system outside the viewport, and decided to try painting that. However, the colors seemed to just melt off his easel, and he ended up creating a massive mess of paint.
He decided to try one last thing to ease his boredom. His stomach had started to growl, so he headed to the kitchen. He found an assortment of various foods and seasonings, and looked up recipes on the GalaxyNet. He found one that seemed rather appetizing, and set about making it. He was very precise on the measurements, and didn't have to substitute a single thing. After letting it cook for the required amount of time, he took it out of the oven. The scent was tantalizing, and he couldn't wait to dig in. And dig in he did.
After the meal, he leaned back in a chair. It was a rousing success; however, all that work had made him a little sleepy. His boredom eased and hunger satiated, he headed to his quarters. He was out before his head even hit the pillow. Actually, it didn't; upon landing on his bed, he bounced off and onto the floor. But he was completely unaware of this; sleep had taken him completely.
