***** Yamaguchi Quaters - Starbase 400 *****

The time was Oh four hundred hours and one had a feeling
that trouble was brewing in the Yamatguchi household as
Jake lay on his side as he regarded his wife who was
presently laying on her back as she turned her head to
regard him.

"Let me take him with me Torilla, you know as
well as I do that Gideon needs family to attend
to him and look after him."

Torilla Yamaguchi looked at her husband who'm
she matched in size but was about two thirds of
his physical strength but she had a hideious
edge in psionic power over him as she raised an
eyebrow. "Do you expect trouble, husband of mine?"
she inquired.

"Always." His answer never failed to suprise her as
she mearly raised an eyebrow. "On what?" she asked
and don't quote Tenneson at me either."

"I wasn't going to say that.."

"Oh yes you were." Torilla's eyes twinckled as she felt
Jake reach across as he hauled her bodily into his arms,
all two hundred or so pounds of her and she knew what was
comming. "Last time you spent time quoting tennison. I
remmeber the night ended well..." Torilla looked at her
husband as they were now

"Yep." he smiled. "but then I used to think it was awful
that life was so unfair. Then I thought, 'wouldn't it be
much worse if life *were* fair, and all the terrible things
that happen to us come because we actually deserve them?'
So now I take great comfort in the general hostility and
unfairness of the universe.

"Jake you make my head hurt..." Torilla sighed softly at
her husband."Alright... Take Gideon with you.... You're
logic is sound.." she sighed softly as she thought of her
grandson who shared many looks with his father, so much
that it broke Torilla's heart to see the resemblence.

Jake nodded as he and his wife gently shared a kiss.
"Alright, I ship out again in two days... I need to get
the kids back to the academy and Gabriel and Celeste need
to spend some time with their son before losing him for
a year."

"I don't think I could have made that choice so easily.."
Torilla whispered as Jake could hear her thinking of when
Elizabeth then Gabriel were infants, followed by Rachael.

"Will Rachael remain here?, same setup as before." Jake
inquired as Torilla nodded. "She's made friends and has
settled down nicely, plus there is her relationship with
Paul Harrison."

"You know she wants to have sex with him right..." Jake
stated bluntly as Torilla nodded. "I've known for months
now. She's decided she's going to do it, she just needs
to decide how and when."

Jake nodded. "I hope she knows whats she's in for."

"You're not the only one..." Torilla responded. "Besides.
she's almost fiished her time of bloom and she's almost a
full adult by Halanian custom." Torilla yawned softly.
"Anyway the two of us need to get some sleep.. sun is
going to be up in a couple of hours and its going to be
a very busy day."
