I'm posting this for Kate Orman at korman@laurel.ocs.mq.edu.au, who for some
|
||
|
|
reason can't get her posts to show up on alt.startrek.creative. Everything
|
||
|
|
below this line was sent to me by Kate; please e-mail her with any comments
|
||
|
|
you may have.

I wrote this ages ago and forgot all about it. It's another one of those
|
||
|
|
drabbles - a story of exactly one hundred words. If you'd like to use this
|
||
|
|
in a fanzine or post it beyond the Internet, please email me first. "Star

MRS TROI SPENDS ONE HUNDRED WORDS IN THE BATHTUB
|

"There's nothing like immersing oneself in a new experience, I always
|
||
|
|
say."

|
|
|

|
|
Lwaxana dipped her foot in, swirling the liquid gently. It tingled, golden
|
||
|
|
sparkled rippling in the clear, honey-coloured stuff.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
She lowered herself into the tub, gently. "Is that alright? Oh, I forgot,
|
||
|
|
you can't speak in that state."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The liquid rippled suggestively. It was blood warm, thick and supportive.
|
||
|
|
Lwaxana let all her muscles relax at once and just floated.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Tiny, firm movements washed over her skin, like fingertips inside the
|
||
|
|
liquid, dozens of fingers at once, pressing, stroking, exploring.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
"Ah," sighed Lwaxana. "Better than a mud bath."
