"Welcome back," Murcha said, as they took seats aboard Lollipop. "That was cutting your exit too close." The ship had left the bay of the terminal station, and now floated serenely in a high planetary orbit. "It may have worked to our benefit," Pacha said. "By leaving scant seconds before impact, it may appear to our friends that we were obliterated by the explosions." "They'll be on their way up here next," Onglet said. "I hope they're not looking for trouble." "Can they hurt us?

You've almost convinced me! Almost.

Thank you for commenting! The pirate market on Engris holds a lot of stuff yet to be explored!

It is easier to deal with anything when you are bright, and basically a cheerful person. It looks good on you!
-
The group kinda likes you, too!
-
They don't show, and they don't matter to us. We like you just the way you are. Haha. If we were all normal by psychological standards, it would be a very dull world, especially for readers and writers!

If it's ghoulish ghoulash, it is acceptable for Halloween. You want a recipe?

Shatner could get away with the split-infinitive, but that's because he was trying to boldly double his popularity. Spock would have frowned at this, if the script had let him. Scotty would have sighed, and did his best to keep things from blowing up. Only Bones McCoy would have smiled. "I'm a doctor, Jim, not a grammaticist!"

I was never a big Lem fan as a kid. It took some years for me to willingly mix satire with my sci-fi. But his Solaris was fascinating, admittedly. I must have missed the one about Trurl and his buddy, though. And I don't want to really pursue the idea of any food with 'goo' as part of its description!

Happy to have you along for the ride!

You sleep? Will wonders never cease!

Haha. You'll be the first one to dash beneath the giant sticklyoptopuss and narrowly miss being grabbed by its giant mandibles! Who do you think you're kidding!

Why does the word 'irrepressible' come to mind here?
-
Shh! You'll wake it up!
-
You do realize that that is an 'in' joke that many people simply won't get?

I could actually write gruesome stuff if I wanted to do it. But I am not ready to decimate my characters. I kind of like them by now, if you know what I mean.

An elevator took them to the building underneath the car, and once again they were presented with a large, very empty room, with what looked like seating all about, though the Athonara had apparently considered comfort a non-essential, as the spare benches had no padding whatsoever. It looked like a fair number of people could sit here, though, surely enough to fill the elevator car. It was only then that Charlie realized that there had been no seats aboard the elevator car. It seemed unus

The Lollipop's landing tube descended, and Frit and Pip stepped out onto the deck of the terminal bay. They looked about quickly, and then grinned at each other. "Seems safe!" Frit called. "I don't feel anything bad!" Pip added. Inside the ship, Charlie nodded to himself, and turned to the others. "Everybody ready?" The two elves had insisted on being the first to go out, saying their powers of detection would quickly look around where mere eyes could not. Pacha had allowed this,

Um...that's a different story line altogether!
-
Yeah, those old fashioned death traps are boring. I was having trouble keeping the guys awake long enough to get to the surface!
-
Oh...okay. Full speed ahead!
-
You had it pegged from the start. A mean monster would have ripped the door off the hinges and eaten Charlie and Kippy, both. Not much story in that!

Thanks for saying!

The number 13 has never been unlucky for me, but it is a nice Halloween number. As to the question...
