“Baron Adwhat!?” Techne spluttered. “Mal! Mal, did-” She looked back at Mal, who shook his head.“The last BA of Atom City was Marquee Harleq...in,” he said.“I won the city in a card game,” the gold skinned automaton said, cheerfully.“You fucking what!?” Techne spluttered.“You’re not allowed to be shock, considering how you got your ship, Techne,” the gold girl said.“How’d she get the ship?” I asked.“She stole it.

Along with the waiter and my tray, Tuan arrived, smiling a ‘good morning, sir’; I had closed the connecting door previously, and now signed the bill, noting it was for my room number, and tipped the waiter out, when I noticed Tuan had re-opened the door and was peering in at her two cousins asleep and cuddling in the other bed. She turned to face me, but I carried my plate and coffee out to the balcony table and sat there. “What did you do to my cousins, Mr. Steve?” Tuan asked smiling. I held.

Devon looked like the bad boy that my mom would hate, complete with the tattoos and jet black hair. Rick looked more like a guy I could see myself dating. I narrowed my choices down to James and Devon.The original plan had them just sticking around for a few drinks before heading downtown to one of the bars. At first I didn’t really like that.
