“Place, Park, Scene, Dark” After I broke up with Angie, sometimes women would hit on me. I’d tell the truth: “Sorry, can’t. Werewolf.”
“Free Falling” I didn’t bring any extra clothes. What would I need clothes for, in Grrltown?
“Camera,” “Wire,” and “Toy” You’re stripping out of your mecha because the battle’s over. Your nerves still sing from your part in the ship’s defense. You peel the shimmering layer of mecha down your arms, your wound-scarred torso, your legs.
“Mo-o and the Woman” Mo’o means “lizard,” but in these stories it means a kind of demon, who looks like a voluptuous young woman.
“Water Music” Mariko said, “The whole idea is to sit in the water. Without any clothes on. I thought you’d like it.”
“The Airplane Story” She’d had herself measured for a custom leather harness the day before they’d left on this trip.
“Green Pajamas” She stared with narrowed eyes as Zondra stripped out of her post-midterm club clothes, the silver lycra pungent with sweat and cigarette smoke.
