That after being challenged to the duel on the floor of the House of Lords by Honor, Pavel Young ran over to Briarwood and made arrangements for his clone child to be created and raised in secret, with all kinds of sealed legal paperwork attesting that he was the rightful heir to North Hollow on his coming of age. Which could be any time now...

Treecats, taking after humans, start giving mindnames to starships. Then, one of them is assigned to GSN Francis Mueller.

'Oh, oh' he said in English. Evidently, he had completely mastered that language. |

"It looked extremely rocky for the Mudville nine that day,
The score stood 2 to 4 with but one inning left to play, So when Cooney grounded out to short, and Burrows did the same, A pallor tinged the features of the patrons of the game. A fearful few got up to go in bleak despair; the rest clung to the hope that springs eternal in the human ... breast. They thought ... 'If only Casey could but get his chance at that!" They'd call their chances fair t'were only ... Casey At The Bat!" (He's so good, he can hit a 3-run homer with none on!) "But Flynn preceded Casey, and so did Jimmy Blake, And the former was a weakling, ... and the latter was ... the pitcher!" (Well, why else would the worst batter precede the best, unless they were batting 9 and 1?) "And so upon the multitude a sullen silence sat, For there seemed but little chance of Casey ... getting to the bat. But Flynn let drive a single, to the wonder of them all, And Jimmy Blake, the *pitcher,* "tore the cover off ... the ball," And when the dust had lifted, ... and they saw what had occured, There was Jimmy, "Safe!" at Second, And Flynn a-hugging Third!"

A celery supply convoy get attacked by a bunch of hexapumas and some of the celery holding cats get eaten (along with the celery that are on them). Celery triggers a species memory capability in the hexapuma. It turns out that they are a much more evolved version of the treecats. Were once starfarers and they are not indigenous to Sphinx, they just terraformed the planet. They were a faction who chose to 'lose' their intelligence and hide in the new planet because they do not want to continue being the blood thirsty planet destroying thugs they once were. The faction that loves destruction is still out there somewhere.

Somewhere on the Verge a Mad Scientist (of course) develops a galaxy-changing material she calls unobtainium (what else would she call it?). Unfortuately, after writing down the formula in two copies, she meets an unexpected death (No one expects the accident!!!).
The Mesan Alignment and the Grand Alliance, both desperate to obtain the secret and get the advantage over their enemies, send out their top agents. Cue chases, fights, shootouts, double- and triple-crosses, deductions, inference, torture and lots and lots and lots of things going BOOM (think Jerry Bruckenheimer in the 40th Century   ). The end result is that both sides obtain one copy of the formula, which is locked securely in a safe with such fendishly difficult locks and destruct devices that it is taken back to the respective capitals to allow the top experts to work on opening the safe without destroying the formula. After weeks of labor, the combination is found and in both the GA and MAlign, top officials are present to see this galaxy-changing event. The safes are opened and.. All that is inside in a Statue. Of a Rat. A Metal Rat. A Stainless Steel Rat. Sorry for the crossover, but Slippery Jim is one of my all-time favorite characters and I could see him surviving in an Honorverse-like place... For those that don't get the reference (Philistines!!), please see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stainless_Steel_Rat ***********************************************
No boom today. Boom tomorrow. There's always a boom tomorrow. What? Look, somebody's got to have some damn perspective around here! Boom. Sooner or later. BOOM! -LT. Cmdr. Susan Ivanova, Babylon 5 |
