DAMN YANKEES

Steve and Bucky were watching the Yankees play baseball on TV.

“Remind me when they moved to California?”

“1957.”

“God, we’re old. Do the others seem like kids to you?”

“Yeah. With those damn phones and tablets. We were lucky to get to use a phone on the corner.”

Bucky laughed and punched Steve on the shoulder. “We sure are fun, aren’t we? My granny was livelier than we are.”

“Your granny was livelier than we were then, too, Buck!”

“Wanna order some pizza and watch a movie after the game?”

“Iron Man?”

Bucky laughed and nodded. “I’m not surprised!”

A HUNK OF JUNK

“I still think this ship is a hunk of junk,” Leia told Han.

“Even after all the rescues?” Han looked offended.

She shook her head. “Because of the rescues! I never know if we’re going to make it or not.”

“That’s part of the fun.”

She just sighed and looked out the viewport.

“Rather have Lando rescue you?”

“No! He’d come in this ship, too. He’d steal it back from you.”

“So you like me then?” He grinned that lopsided irresistible grin.

She leaned into his arms. “Of course I do, you silly man.”

“I knew you’d see reason eventually.”

Summary: Zack Allen IV finds a treasure.

~~~

FIND OF A LIFETIME

It sat in a museum, behind a climate controlled glass. It was dirty and ragged. After all, it had floated in space for at least a century before it had been found by Zack Allen, IV, a private security expert who was traveling to meet a client near Epsilon III, where the old Babylon 5 station had once been.

He’d showed it to his wife.

“Can it be the one?”

“It has to be. As far as I know, there was only one spaced.”

The bear with JS on it sold for a billion credits and Zack never worked again.

Summary: It’s time to vote for president, but president of what?

~~~

VOTE FOR…

“Sammy, are we voting this year?” Dean asked his brother as they sat at the table in the Men of Letters hideout. They were eating takeout burgers and drinking sugary Cokes.

“It’s an election year?”

“Yep. I don’t think they show The Apprentice that many times a day on tv, so they must be campaign ads.”

“You mean he is running for president?” Sammy asked.

Dean laughed. “Wonder if they know he works for Crowley?”

“No shit?” Sammy knew that Dean knew things about the King of Hell.

“Wait ‘til I tell you who the other one is working for!’

Summary: Arwen is not a happy camper.

~~~

VACATION

Arwen stood in the kitchen and stated at the woodstove. What was she supposed to do with it? She could make remedies and even still do a little magic, but she had no idea how to make dinner on this, this stove!

Why did Ellessar insist on coming to this little hut in the woods two or three times a year? They had everything they needed at home. He had no real need to hunt and fish and swim in that cold, cold pond.

The children loved coming here though. They followed their father everywhere.

He could bake the bread!

Summary: Kaylee has questions.

~~~

BACKWARD AND FORWARD

“Do you think it’s still there?” Kaylee asked Mal.

“What would that be, Kaylee?” Mal turned to look at her.

“Earth That Was.”

He thought a moment. “Probably is. Take away the folks and the animals and all you got is a rock. Pretty hard to destroy a rock that big.”

“Do you ever wish you could go there?” She asked.

“What’s got you so ponderous tonight?”

“Don’t know. Just thinkin’ about where we come from.”

“As opposed to where we’re going?”

Kaylee laughed. “I don’t have an answer for either of those. Do you?”

He shook his head. “Nope.”
