Zora tipped the brim of her hat up and glanced over at the holo.
Same old,
same old. Imperial programming had been boring enough,
but the New Republic
didn't seem to do much better. Always cash strapped, the
Republic had
introduced the idea of commercials. And here on the Rim,
programmers
weren't picky about their sponsors.
"Now downloadable from Stellnet! The soaring new romance
novel by Scylla!
Yearn with Elanthia Stardust for the Imperial Admiral who spared
her life.
Thrill to her endless quest for him. Rejoice at their reunion.

_Grey Man of my Dreams_ today!"
"Hey partner. Your flameout. So, whaddaya think?
Should we take the
bootleg holo run or that one with the cute bean-stuffed critters
with the
heart tags on their ears?" She downed her shot of coke.
"Critters. Legal."
"Right right. Like we never did anything unethical. Hey, check that!"
The holo boomed: "Coming soon to a world near you! Open
to all male
sentients, the first annual Galactic Man competition! Finalists
get an
all-expense paid trip to Coruscant, and compete for the coveted
title of
Galactic Man! The paragon of maleness to whom the whole
galaxy looks for
inspiration." The Galactic Man logo beamed bright and glittery
against a
set background.
"Yeah! I gotta sign me up right away!" yelled a plug-ugly at the bar.
Another man carried an imaginary scepter and minced down a runway,
lisping,
"Oh, Oh, I'm tho thrilled to be this year's Galactic Man, paragon
of
maleness. Come over here honey and let me show you."
He rubbed up against
the plug-ugly making kissy-faces. The bar roared.
An announcer came out and Zora gasped. "Calrissian."
The former gambler
looked incredibly handsome, as he sat down and began explaining
the contest.
"Nah, can't be. He's a general or something. Why would
he be hosting
something like this? Unless its a scam. But if it was a
scam..." Talla
blasphemed three gods in four languages. "Solo!"
"Cheelooda," added Zora, seeing the face of the blond man on her
former
boss' arm.
"And here are two of our judges right now," Lando continued.
"These men
need no introduction."
Han and Luke sat down uncomfortably, looking as if they'd rather
be anywhere
in the galaxy than in front of their good friend's holo cameras.
Someone in the bar noticed their linked hands and, as the holo
cut to a
tight close-up of Solo, hooted, "Yeah! Who's your Jedi
Master, huh? Who's
your Jedi Master!" Grunting and much hilarity followed
this statement.
"Circle of life and all that, I guess." Talla continued, draining
her
coca-cola. Zora couldn't stand the stuff, it made her giggly
and
light-headed. "Let's load those critters, shall we?
I'm glad we picked
them, they're really cute. And where we're going, they
cost 50 credits
each. Lessee, fifty credits times a hundred critters per
crate, and a
hundred crates, and we get a thirty percent commission--"
"Hundred-seventy thousand." Zora cut off her calculations.
She fired up a
red smokestick. Unlike the green odor-killer, this one
was laced with
adrenalin and testosterone. She liked these
far too well, and used them
sparingly. But moving and stowing a hundred crates was
going to take more
than she had in her at the moment.
The women shuffled the crates aboard the Snowstar without delay,
and Zora
programmed the jump.
"So they're alive and well. Solo never found out we nicked
the petty cash.
Glad of that. We could repay him, but he probably decided
to let us keep it
in lieu of pay. Luke grew up pretty nicely, huh?
Jedi Master." Talla
whistled under her breath. "And they're still together,
that's sweet.
Here, catch,"
She tossed Zora one of their cargo, a red and gold dragon.
Zora snagged it
easily in mid air, and turned it over in her hand. She
opened the tag.
"Smaug. Cute."
"Keep it. It's a bonus from Ty, the guy who makes them."
"Mascot." Zora sat the small dragon atop the navi'puter.
She yawned and
stretched, before leaning over to kiss her partner invasively.
"Zora! Lay off the red ones," Talla protested. "I
have to take watch.
There's a Rebel Whore mag back in the ‘fresher."
"Leia pictoral?"
"Yep. The Bespin one. And a copy of Rebelz.
Special all Skywalker
Edition. If you're in a cheelooda mood. Got a pictoral
of him doing Leia.
There may be a couple of Flyboyz as well."
"Mmm, Princess..." Zora swaggered off to the fresher, and
the naked
Alderaani being abused by the Lord Vader.
"One of these days I am so going to make that Sithwitch quit with
that red
smoke," Talla said to the little dragon.
