"Creek raises issues of trust in authority and free will in coercive situations..."--Steven H. Silver, Tangent Online (Learn more about Tangent Online, the Internet's leading SF&F short fiction review website)
"No other Galactic species is as unpredictable as Humanity. Their intense emotions lead them to unexpected heights of creativity, but also trap them within a subjective emotional state which prevents them from checking their basest urges."--Omakuranek, exerpt from report to Arololularian Interspecies Relations Council, 2097.
As Leo Bakri stepped into the small passenger boat, it began rocking in the wake of a much larger freighter craft. The boat's pilot grabbed Leo's elbow to steady him. "Easy there, mate."
Despite his nervousness at what lay ahead, Leo smiled at his clumsiness. Imagine having to find your sea legs within a space habitat! He heard stifled laughter behind him and saw Marie Sovel holding her hand over her mouth. He reached up toward her. "Let's see if you do any better."
Marie took that hand and her fluid grace as she stepped into the rocking boat at just the right instant made him realize all the more why he loved her.
