"Isn't it romantic? Soon we'll have a fresh crop of little ones!"
Kendrick snorted and looked at the line of citizens behind them. "Reality TV and soap operas have infected every corner of the galaxy, haven't they? There's nothing the least bit romantic about reproduction."
"But we have to increase our population."
"Of course," Kendrick agreed. He looked forward. "Your turn."
When it his turn came, six-foot-four Kendrick slid into the reproduction chamber. After a decent interval, Ken and Rick, both three-feet-two inches long, slid out. They nodded primly and went their separate ways.
Pin It Now!
