The four approach the front counter as the cashier gives a bright smile and greets the group as though nothing was out of place.
"Welcome! How can I get you for started?" she says cheerily and politely.
"This module of four requires four units of supplementary nourishment." Jennifer said in her monotonous voice, her friends waiting behind her emotionless.
The cashier, Betty, had to think about it for a moment before realizing what the former human had said. As she did, her skin began to lose tone, resulting in the same clammy grey color as the four before her.
"Oh, right! Four meals comin' right up!" she says happily, punching in the order on the computer.
With every poke of the touch screen, her fingertips began to swell into nodes lacking fingernails, as well as the digits themselves elongating. All the while, a small pair of stumps began pushing through Betty's jet black hair as well as her eyes matching the same dark tone.
"Do require anything else? Dessert for you module, maybe?" she asks, her speech already losing personality.
"This module does not require accessories for nourishment. Your sharing of information has been duly noted and appreciated." Jennifer replied, a minimum smile appearing on her lips.
"Denial of accessory acknowledged. Four units of nourishment equate to 400 credits." Betty said as her antennae reached their full length and her name tag shifted to properly spell her name fully out to 'Elizabeth'.
"Equation confirmed. Dispensing payment." Jennifer then pulled out her chain wallet out of her pocket, the chain breaking and disappearing out of existence. Before she could pull anything out of the custom-made wallet, it began to change and compress in her finger nodes, the US dollar bills dissolving into text on a screen, converting its value into a unified form of currency 'Elizabeth' had called credits. The leather began to harden and flatten into a glass-like material, her driver's license dissolving into said screen, appearing as digitized profile.
Elizabeth then took Jennifer's 'utility card' (as it as labelled) and held it to the computer, causing the screen to deconstruct into a much thinner and highly technological interface which quickly processed the new form of transaction.
Meanwhile, the employees in the back were busy filling out orders of burgers fries and other fast food goodies until one of them came across the order for Jennifer's 'module' looking around, he quickly went to the freezer to get more supplies as his skin began graying and the environment around him had begun to change.
The cold storage began shifting, becoming warmer as the food supplies began shifting as well, becoming alien in itself: bags of vegetables began to flourish in healthy colors once more, the shelf containing it shifting into the appearance of an otherworldly hydroponic system, growing literal lettuce leaves, chopped onions, tomato slices, and potato sticks in purple soil, stacks of patties defrosting into a miniature bovine creature with antennae replacing its horns, packets of shake mixes hardening into syringes and positioning themselves into a newly formed machine positioned at what could be considered the creature's udders.
The grey young man quickly picked the vegetables which grew back within a few seconds and pulled a portion from the side of the bovine creature, coming off like a bubble and the empty space quickly regenerating. As he approached to a few of the many grills and other kitchen wares, they began to shift as well, becoming bizarre sleek and futuristic devices which quickly and cleanly processed the food into a singular meal, resembling a salad but compressed into a smaller size.
The device went through the process three more times before the employee almost robotically brought them over to the front counter. By that time, the other two employees working with him had also began to change, though their antennae where still growing compared to his fully grown pair. The fryers and other equipment deemed unnecessary for 'nourishment' had all but disappeared making the kitchen cleaner and sleeker, and the meals already prepared in paper bags were now replaced with the proper appearance similar to what Jennifer had ordered, albeit floating in glass containers with minor differences for different orders.
"The nourishment requested is now completed for Jennifer and her module," Elizabeth announced right in front of her, handing her and her 'module' their meals. "Your decision to request nourishment at this current facility has been duly noted and appreciated." she added, giving an emotionless smile while her antennae bounced a bit from the motion.
"Your service has been noted as above standard and appreciated." Jennifer replied as the four exited the joint. All the while, even the english language began to convert into a strange alien-like appearance, yet the vocalization remained the same.
