Thank you, Madeleine, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
That was awesome. Poor Yooli! He never saw it comin'.
Thank you, August! Sometimes it's better to hold onto the spear a little longer and bridge the communication divide. 😁
Nice. Star Trek meets ET meets The Culture - all in my local village pond!
Thanks, Johnathan! It certainly did have a little bit of everything... all my influences coming out at once.
This was fantastic! I love it!
Thank you, Jason! You threw me for a loop with your new profile pic. Looking good. 😁
I loved every moment.
Thank you, Zachary!
