All romantics meet the same fate someday
Cynical and drunk and boring someone in some dark cafe
--Joni Mitchell, The Last Time I Saw Richard




Dear Martha,

I've discovered an entire galaxy devoted to cooking. By "discovered" I mean I've never been here before, the colonists who are here discovered it a long time ago. I think there was an Earth riot over the Food Network and eventually the people from Earth who sided with the robotic Rachael Ray came to this part of the cosmos.

Anyway, I'm at Develoka, which is a planet populated entirely by bakers. I'm on the southern side of the planet, so I've met quite a few cake-makers. I thought you might like it here. Not that I'm saying you like an overt amount of cake, just I know you like cake. You do like cake, don't you?

Well! Anyway! This is a postcard. The image has nothing to do with my behavior prior to us parting though it is entirely possible that I still miss you. A lot.

Off to another frosting testing,

There are so many possibilities.

So many choices.

So many regrets.

He wonders what would've happened if he'd stayed back on Messaline for a few more hours. Or if he'd agreed with River when she asked him to come with her the first time they went on a date. If he'd had a proper romance in a proper world with a timeline that was all linear and straight.

Well, he reminds himself that a straight line may be the shortest distance between two points but it is by no means the most interesting. )
