I wonder if I'll be making a garish and inappropriate appearance in Corin's story again. :~D

Didn't you do that in most our stories last time? You did in mine.

Verlabeana Frapplestein was not an attractive carbon-based unit. While she was not ugly enough to scare a frybolean wossledog from a meat transport cargo vehicle, when it came to last call at the Galactic Outpost 649J Grille and Lubrication Salon Verlabeana would be the unit asked to lock the door and extinguish the illumination panels.

Still, Verlabeana had a way of lighting up a life sustaining chamber. Truth be told it was likely her overexposure to the gamma rays from the Grille’s daily special of thrice radiated Mongoloosian pork chops.

Though the male carbon units at Galactic Outpost 649J loved Verlabeana, they loved her pork chops more.

They are overbooked and offering 250 to take a flight an hour later. Hah! Not hardly worth it.

Well, good... I like that better than just having great pork chops. :~D

But, you meet a man of mystery in my story...


At first, Verlabeana didn’t think anything unusual about the Fragnolean snarf trader that came in that evening. His type came in all the time. But she noticed him staring at her through the eyes in the back of his head. When she turned he looked away as if he didn’t want her to see that he’d been giving her the once over.

She knew these types were lonely and at the far reaches of the galaxy, snarf traders rarely encountered female carbon-based units. His attention made her smile, and then she forgot about it.

But when she took his order, she knew this one was different.

He didn’t order the pork chops.

Is that blood there? - that's a nice touch.

That red is a red stuff sack. Since replaced by an OD green one, when I realized red just didn't work with the overall color scheme.

I don't think I've heard of the Texas Rangers...except having seen the title of that show awhile back. What was it called? I can't remember.
