ANOTHER NEWSDROID HOLIDAYby HazedSpring is here, and the newsdroids are chafing at being stuck in the Fed2 Star offices all day long. They are threatening to mutiny if I don't let them have another break. I know, it only seems like a couple of weeks since the last time I allowed them a holiday. Normally, I wouldn't stand for this kind of insubordination, and I certainly wouldn't give into threats of blackmail. I would turn their mutinous metal bodies into office furniture and replace the lot of them with more reliable models. But, hey, demi-goddesses like to have time off too, and the fact that spring is here makes me feel a little more magnanimous than usual, so I have agreed. There will be no issue of the Fed2 Star next week; we'll be back on Sunday May 11. |
