Heh. "Do you recognize this idiot?"

"Nope. You don't either?"

"Negative. I wonder which of us he's after..."

But they chose to eat at a wood-imination cera-alloy table. They understand their lives.

To move Miss Chevious to the setting for The Terran Wars, I was going to make her a pre-war bounty hunter who was tapped to work with the Union civilian intelligence services.

"What do you mean you didn't bring a gun to the party?"

He's a Star Hunter here -- they take "be prepared" seriously.

My planned scenario for this was him taking her to a nearly empty restaurant (they're the only customers; he claimed he got them to open early) only for the attack to happen before the food arrived. The upshot was she knew she was going to be ambushed, he knew too, and a trap was set. So he not only has his visible .50cal revolver and concealed tiny-cal machine pistol, but is backed up by the undercover Hunters in the kitchen and a "gang" or two outside. And the restaurant is officially closed for renovations (not started yet).

Wow it's been a long time since I've seen Ms. Chevious.

I've got others in my gallery. And try to get more every time I see Mr. Zimmerman.

She's worth it.

I remember another female character from back then who's all but vanished, Varcel from Varcel's Vixens.

Who was Sue VanCamp's, IIRC.

I'm forgetting everything these days.
