• LucasArts special edition: LOOM on CD-ROM

  • A huge gathering at the mall, the beginnings of some major class trip. They gave out sandwiches made from leftover salmon, but I had other sandwiches stowed away in the locker room. On my way there I was accosted by two little YCM kids; I tossed one onto the floor with a clumsy judo throw and kicked the other in the chest. I moved on.

    I was trying to convince Samus Aran to marry me. She was retired from the bounty-hunting business, a single mom perhaps, and working as a librarian. She was just wearing her battlesuit for a charity fundraiser. She took off her helmet like she does in Metroid, and she had glasses on underneath. Her hair wasn't even purple.
