Alas. From what I understand of it, racing means a dog going in the direction you wish him or her to go in.

For this, Charlie is 100% underqualified.

Charlie has passed along his concern about his caninomorphic field being disrupted by the proximity of a nanostring matrix, and the possibility of a catastrophic multi-phasic electrosubdermal feedback event.

(He reads a lot).

In laydog’s terms, he says, he’s afraid of exploding.

Any suggestions on maintaining his structural integrity? Would it help if, for example, he had a manky old bone in his mouth?

It’s true, scifi bad guys always look the best. And the good guys look vaguely dorky. Compare Luke Skywalker (shapeless shell-suit of cotton, Lego brick belt, beige tights) with Darth Vader (Fashionable Death Incarnate, albeit with a black bucket on his head).

However, when people are Bad in scifi – eg. in alternate universes, which scifi characters are *always* falling into – they have an unfortunate penchant for black leather. This makes the future look like a cross between Blake’s 7 and Boon.

This is not a good thing.

If you are Satan’s Spawn, then you are admirably equipped to deal with the very worst that Hull could throw at you. Well, maybe.
