Two days ago (yes, on Canadian Thanksgiving), a western conifer seed bug entered the house via a fan vent. These awesome armored-looking bugs moved really, really slowly (they fly quickly, however). Everything seems to be in slow motion for them.
Our visitor exited the fan vent in the main bathroom, turned his head slowly from side to side. He was likely wondering where on the Earth he was.
He looked at me.
I looked back at him.
He continued to look at me, not moving.
I retrieved the flyswatter, carefully slid it under him and transferred him outside. He didn’t want to leave the flyswatter. I had to nudge him off it.
Once he was on the ground, he slowly turned his head and looked back at me.
I don’t know what he was expecting me to do. I left him there. (grins)
Yesterday, as I was gardening, a western conifer seed bug (not often spotted in my neighborhood) landed on a plant beside me.
He looked at me.
I looked back at him.
He very slowly waved one of his front legs at me.
I like to think he was the same insect and he was saying hi. (smiles)

B Free
B is the last remaining B Model cyborg. All of his brethren, the beings he trained with, fought with, cared deeply for, have perished.
Or so he believes.
When he intercepts a communication mentioning the existence of one of his kind, he has to investigate its source. The message could be a trap set by his enemies. He’ll take that risk if it secures him the companionship he requires to be fully functional.
What he finds is a daring brown-eyed female who activates all his systems. She proudly proclaims she’s a researcher, brandishing that information like a weapon before her. He wants to kiss the sass off her beautiful face, protect her from the dangers around them, claim her forever.
Quinn is on a quest to locate the mechanics of an early-version cyborg. She believes the information captured within that frame will give her valuable insights into the past.
When her mission goes zombie-like beings levels of wrong, she comes face-to-face with a living, breathing B Model. He has big hands, a primitive countenance, and stern hard lips crafted for kissing.
She doesn’t trust him. And she doesn’t have time to indulge her desires.
Their shared enemies are chasing them, would kill to get their precious specimens back. One minor mistake could reduce B and Quinn to a mere line in the databases of history.
