       @VisualInspiration No, sir, I don’t want to be a chief diplomat, ambassador on [makes a whistling sound], or anything like that. I don’t even want to meet your—sorry, my—President. I'm just not interested.That’s the short answer. But I can give you a longer one if you want. I was the loser who went broke with three businesses on Earth and another one on Mars. Debts that no honest man can pay, so they forced me to sign this adhesion contract. To buy this so-called restaurant on [makes a farting sound]—no, sir, I don’t use the Terran name anymore—to serve the colonists bad food and even worse beer. Hard-working people who deserve better, but won't get any because I'm not free to choose my supplier, you know how it is.When the [whistling sound] came in their saucers—yes, I know they call it [makes an indefinite sound]—the army was long gone. The colony was exposed to any attack they wanted to execute. The colonists offered to defend the bar with everything they had, but I said, no weapons here.Then the [whistles again] entered the bar and I did what I do best: serving beer and raspberry soda. They liked a blend of both, and they even liked the crap I serve as food. Loved it, actually.They ate and drank everything, but of course, they couldn't pay. I trusted them and hoped they'd come back.When they did, they installed one of their GravLift engines right into my basement; they hate walking on solid ground. So the bar lifted off. And the engine’s mine. I own the only permanently flying restaurant on [farts], Earth, and elsewhere. No, it’s not for sale.#microfiction #writingprompt #scifi

       @davidrevoy No question she can do this. She must be a goddess: She's wearing shades for three eyes.
