to her like glue. "Stop leaning in so close to me, Slick! We are trying to work. Can't you go to
your quarters until I call for you?"
"No mistress."
"Why not?"
"I do not have any quarters."
"Fine go to my quarters!"
Kerreth shook his head. "I cannot. I must observe what transpires aboard this ship."
"Why?"
"How else am I to help you?"
"We don't need your help."
SpinDrift leaned towards Lucky and spoke in a singsong voice. "Maybe we do-o-o. It
couldn't hurt; we're getting no-o-o-o- where."
True. "Well, move back and quit crowding me, Slick. Geesh!"
"As you say." He moved back half an inch.
Lucky rolled her eyes. How come machines never get it?! Who the hell programs these
excuses for extreme annoyance?
Minmei gave a dainty hiccup and giggled.
Lucky slapped her forehead with the heel of her hand. Argh!
"Whatever is on that chip seems to be locked."
Minmei concurred.
"THIS IS TRUE, I CANNOT GET INSIDE FOR YOU."
Kerreth leaned over Lucky's shoulder and pointed at the rotating, fuzzy image of the chip.
"Can you clean this image up?"
"Well, I "
"Not you; I was speaking to your ship. You do have an integrated systems op on this " He
looked around the deck with distaste. " ship?"
"Of course we do!" Lucky bristled. The Sugarbabe might not look like much but she could
outrun most corporate ships in a pinch. Wildcat had wisely put their money where he thought
it counted: getaway power. All things considered, Mama Bros had patched together a pretty
decent (if pitchy) system.
"Poor folk make do, you know?" Lucky whispered to Spin. "Seems the Masterstroke 6000s
are kind of a snobby bunch."
"From what I've heard they have every right to be." Spin whispered back.
Minmei addressed Kerreth sweetly.
"YOU WISH ME TO CLEAR THE IMAGE?"
"Can you sharpen it up for me?" he purred back.
Minmei was smitten.
"OH, YES! TEE-HEE-HEE."
Lucky's mouth opened and her tongue dropped out. Thereby showcasing her extreme
nausea.
Kerreth almost lost it by coughing. Until it hit him that she was utterly adorable. A line
furrowed his smooth brow. Why didn't he notice that before?
Maybe he did& but ignored it for the sake of the job at hand.
Could she be trouble?
He sneaked a peak at her. Luscious full lips. Sweet upturned nose. Expressive, round green
eyes . An asteroid's worth of curly red hair. And a real cheeky personality.
Oh, yeah, she could be serious trouble.
"Do you see anything?" Lucky scrutinized the image with him.
He saw something; only not on the screen. Yeah, he was very attracted to her.
"I know I do." He viewed her from under his dark lashes. "Do you?" he murmured right next
to her ear.
The Masterstroke's hot breath skittered along Luckys lobe.

She jumped. Simulated breathing? They even added warmth for realism! Amazing. And a
little scary. "Um& could you not do that?"
"Do what?" His warm lips almost touched her ear.
Lucky opened her mouth to let him have it but SpinDrift forestalled her. "For lick's sake,
Lucky, he is a pleasure droid. You can't expect him to ignore his programming entirely."
"Why not?"
"I am programmed to seduce." Kerreth shrugged his shoulders.
"Well, unprogram yourself."
Spin examined one of his claws. "I doubt he can."
"I doubt I can." Kerreth agreed.
Lucky clenched her fists. "I swear, I will put you both off this ship if "
"What are those markings on the side of the chip?"
" you continue& where?" Lucky studied the screen.
"Here." Kerreth pointed to an area of the image that looked fuzzier than the rest.
"I don't see anything. Do you, SpinDrift?"
"Just some scratches on the casing."
"Those aren't scratches. Minmei& ?" Kerreth looked to the console for both an
acknowledgement of the proper address, as well as a direct response.
"YE-E-E-S-S-S?"
Hesitant. Shy. Yet game for fun. You could almost see the pigtails, pleated miniskirt, and
sailor blouse.
Lucky made a face at the computer. "Could you enlarge this section of the picture for us?"
"FOR YOU, I WOULD DO IT."
Minmei's breathy tone made it clear that she would like to do much more for the android
than simply enlarge an image.
The picture in front of them immediately swelled to ten times its normal size, filling the
screen to the edge of the border. It spilled over to the screen on the far wall.
The implied message was not subtly done; the resulting image was impossibly huge.
"She never responds to me like that," Lucky groused to Spin. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
