They'd found her already driving thru simulated water in the game Wave Rider, and after some hesitation, Brett joined in, coming in a respectable second out of two. Then, jumping to the new Pac-Man attack, Amelia proved victorious, as the last Pac-man standing, having devoured first Olivia and then Brett. “How about this one?” …

Mending Fences and Digging Holes: Part III
“I hope that you like it....I wasn't really sure what you might want to do. I don't really go out that much, other than.....,” he paused, “some clubs occasionally.” They had just sat down at the table, but the ambient noise level made it kind of hard to hear, the sounds of a hundred …
A First Lesson
He'd shown her the basic controls before they even left, explaining some of the high tech gadgets as well, espescially the radar, San Diego was a busy port.

He'd long ago figured out that his blending into the background needed focus, and he had been anything but focused for a bit after that.....discussion and with Olivia roaming the base, he really couldn't afford to …

Course, stylistically, anything related …
Homeward Bound
Sophia by Cruxshadows Its never really silent in a combat aircraft, even when its quiet. The mechanical hums, the chimes and sounds of various consoles, the breathing, farts, belches, and assorted creaks of equipment from the troops in the back. Now, though, with Alliance Two, it seemed different. Oh sure, Henri snored in the co-pilot's …
