Isolation and Invitations by elecktrum, literature

Isolation and Invitations

They were seated in the galley eating breakfast – oatmeal for Gary, a bowl of tuna for Avocato, a crushed ice cream cone for Mooncake – and talking about strange things they'd eaten on purpose (Avocato was winning handily, having visited a lot more planets than Gary), when Carl entered and set a small cup before Gary. The blond glanced at it with something close to hate, then pushed it aside, snapping, "Not now, Carl." "Now, Gary," insisted HUE as Carl, his delivery complete, walked off. "Busy mingling, HUE," was the heated reply. "You know, that thing I haven't been allowed to do in five years? Because isolation sucks and does

Trust and Other Acquired Skills

"Gary." "Huh-uh?" At the inarticulate mumble, Avocato arched an eyebrow and let out a long, slow breath. As he looked up from the controls of the Crimson Light, several rapid-fire thoughts ricocheted through Gary Goodspeed's mind. The first thought that really took hold was the fact that Avocato had eyebrows. What evolutionary quirk equipped a six-foot, teal cat-man with eyebrows? Granted, Gary had known from the start that Avocato had eyebrows, had stared at them . . . not nearly enough, had seen Avocato and his son work them to full advantage, but until this moment of sleep-deprived wonder, he'd never actually thought about it before. Th

What Friends Do

Chapter Two: Friends, Family, and Fathers "You got this, HUE?" The squat little robot looked around the side of the pilot's chair. "I got this, dog." The idea of HUE trying to sound hip and reassuring at the same time still sufficed to amuse the heck out of Gary. If he hadn't been light years beyond exhausted, he would have laughed. As it was, he just shook his head and smiled faintly, gesturing weakly. "Thanks. I'll be in my cabin. If anything happens, jettison KVN at it and then call me." "Roger that." Walking to the back of the control room, he passed Tribore snoring in the navigator's chair and found Little Cato sitting on the floor

What Friends Do

Chapter One: Bunkmates "Shove over." "Huh-wha?" "I'm not sleeping on the floor. Shove over." Awareness crept over Gary as he lifted his head off his pillow. Being roused by a voice other than HUE or KVN was a novelty unto itself, but to have a living, breathing, warm, and furry person standing next to him administering a poke in the ribs . . . well, cookies or no, after years of nothing but robots for company, it was like his birthday and Christmas rolled into one. Still, Avocato demanding to share his bunk was a bit unexpected and clarification was in order. "You . . . want to sleep with me?" Gary wondered, about three-quarters awake by

I Know Now What You Knew Then

Captain's log, stardate . . . yeesh, I don't have clue one. Never really got the hang of dates in space. We'll say Day 5 since we left Kanopus Prime. Hey, Avocato. It's me. Gary. I know you'll probably never get this, but I need to connect to my best friend and spilling my guts on video is the only way I've got until we figure out how we're going to get you back and back to yourself and . . . yeah. All that stuff. I get it now, finally. I know now what you knew then and I get why you acted the way you did. Back at the start, I mean, but it wasn't the start for you, was it? You started three years ago, when you first met me before I met you.

Favourite genre of music: rock, folk, classic, movie soundtracks, swing, jazz, anything with bagpipes

Shell of choice: periwinkle
Wallpaper of choice: Anything by Morris for the walls.

Going okay, on disability now so things are a bit better. I hope you're doing well! Sorry I didn't respond sooner, for some reason deviantart isn't emailing me when I have a notification anymore.

Hope you're having a good holiday!
