<grin> you're too kind, but then you haven't *seen* the half-finished burbles on my half-drive (or still in my head) that I mentioned. Though I still have a fondness for the blatant Mary-Sue fantasy (unwritten, of course - doesn't everyone have at least one?) where the Original Female Character (small, round, clutzy, absent-minded, makes Vila look brave) loses Orac's key, breaks her teleport bracelet, loses her teleport bracelet, loses all the teleport bracelets, breaks Orac, loses Avon, breaks *Zen*, loses the entire crew ... and never does recall the vital piece of information which both the good guys and the bad guys are trying to get from her :-)

Well, I want to read it!

How about one where Mary-Sue befriends and then betrays the crew, makes off with the instructions on how to built a teleport, sells the instructions to the Federation, steals Orac, and finally dies horribly as a result of some security program Avon put on Orac so one of his own crew wouldn't nick it?
That one too!
