                             Eleven
   They  walked to the Peabody's quarters. Ban pushed the  button
to open the door.
   They walked in and Peabody was sitting on the sofa.
   "Peabody. This is Oscar."
   Peabody  turned around and his eyes got big. He walked towards
them and Ban was glad he made the deal with Lan.
   "Hello, Oscar. How are you?" Ban handed Oscar to him.
   Lan  saw  tears  running down Peabody's face.  Peabody  hugged
Oscar.
   "How old is he?"
   "Four months," Lan said.
   "He isn't supposed to be prone to skin diseases."
   "That's  great, because the closest vet is millions  of  miles
from here."
   Oscar  licked him and wiggled in his arms. Peabody sat on  the
floor with him.
   He  put  Oscar  on  the  floor, and watched  him  sniffed  the
ground. Then he turned to Peabody and nudged his hand.
   "I  wonder  how he will like the low gravity when I walk  him.
Hey! Where will I walk him?"
   "In the corridor outside your quarters or the cavern."
   "Oh, yeah. The cavern will be good. We will need something  to
pick up the poop."
   "We bought a lot of things."
   "Let's take the stuff to the kitchen."
   Lin  was making Peabody a sandwich when he heard them come in.
He  looked at the dog. Tears were running down Peabody's face  as
he hugged it.
   They  joined him in the kitchen while Lan put the  dog's  food
away.
   "Lin, this is Oscar."
   "Hello, Oscar."
   "Where did you find Oscar?"
   "I had a lawyer find him," Lan said.
   "Do you like him?" Ban asked Peabody.
   "I love him! Thank you!"
   Peabody  put  Oscar down and he wandered around  sniffing  the
floor.  Peabody  looked in the sacks and saw the  leash  and  the
plastic  bags.  He  put water in one of the dishes  and  food  in
another. Oscar wandered over and drank some water. He sniffed the
food  and  then ran over to Peabody. Peabody reached an arm  down
and rubbed Oscar's head.
   "How do you feel, Peabody?" Lan asked him.
   "I  feel fine. When I woke up from my nap, I was fine. I guess
I overdid it.
   "If  I  walk Oscar in the cavern, I need a way to get  him  up
and  down  the ladder. It would be hard to hold him and  climb  a
ladder."
   "You just need a third arm!" Lan said.
   Peabody laughed. "Yes, that is exactly what I need."
   "We will think of something, beautiful."
   "What a wonderful surprise he is!" Peabody said.
   "He is a gift from Lan and me," Ban said.
   "I  think  I  owe  the two of you a very special  thank  you."
Peabody  saw Lan and Ban grin. He walked up to Lan and  took  his
hand  and  shook  it. "Thank you." Then he shook Ban's  hand  and
thanked him.
   "Was  that  special enough?" He laughed at their  expressions.
"I'm  just  kidding. I would drag you to bed, if I  wasn't  under
doctor's orders to take it easy.
   "Maybe when you feel better?" Ban asked.
   "At  least twice when I feel better. He's the best gift I ever
received."
   Peabody  looked  at the huge bulge in Lan's pants.  He  wanted
it. He needed to get better quick.
   "I  was trying to make Peabody a sandwich, but you could do it
much better, Lan.
   "What would you like, Peabody?"
   "I've  been  craving macaroni and cheese. It must  be  because
I'm pregnant," he said, laughing.
   "What would you like with it?"
   "How about a pork chop?"
   "OK.  I'll get started on them. Would you like some  chips  or
an appetizer? It will take a while for the macaroni and cheese."
   "Do we have cookies on Mars?"
   "Yes. They are made by little green Martians."
   "Oh! That's better than elves!"
   Lan  took  a package out of a cabinet. He looked at it  before
handing it to Peabody.
   "See the happy Martians on the package?"
   Peabody laughed. "Yes, they look suspiciously like elves,  but
I suppose it's possible elves are from Mars."
   "Don't tell anyone!"
   Peabody laughed. "I promise."
   Something  looked odd about the package to Peabody. He  turned
it over.
   "Lan,  these  cookies expired nine years ago.  I'm  afraid  to
open the package."
   "Oh! Wait!"
   Lan looked in the cabinet and found a more recent purchase.
   "Here  you  go.  I  usually  check the  labels.  I  am  sorry,
beautiful."
   "It's  OK.  How  often  does the first dog  arrive  on  a  new
planet?"
   "Once?" Lin said.
   Peabody laughed. "Exactly!"
   "Lan,  I  will  have Mun go through the food and  discard  old
packages," Ban said.
   "Thank you."
   Peabody  wondered why Mun would do it, and then remembered  he
was over purchasing.
   Oscar was next to Peabody's legs. He bent over and picked  him
up. Peabody closed his eyes and hugged him.
   "My  love,  why  did you not get another dog  on  Earth?"  Lin
asked him.
   Peabody  sighed.  "I  decided to commit suicide.  It  wouldn't
have  been fair to the dog. I got the pills to do it, but I  kept
postponing the suicide. Then I went to Mars and I am very glad  I
didn't do it."
   "Oh, my love. I am so sorry you suffered so much."
   "Well,  it  worked out for the best. You need me  and  I  need
you."
   "Yes."
   "Ban,  you  are  the resident genius. You need  to  develop  a
spacesuit for Oscar. Can you do it?"
   "Yes, I will do it."
   "It needs a place to attach the leash."
   "What is the leash?"
   Peabody showed it to him. "In an emergency, we don't want  him
running in the wrong direction."
   "Yes. I understand."
   "It  amazes me that you can be so smart and also have  such  a
wonderful penis." They laughed.
   "I  have always thought it was especially wonderful. I am very
pleased you agree," Ban said. Peabody laughed again.
   "Do Alaphin keep pets?" he asked them.
   "Some  do.  It is not as common as it is with humans.  I  once
had an aquatic animal that I caught and kept," Lin said.
   "I don't suppose you have pictures."
   "No, it didn't live long. I think our home was too warm."
   "At  some  point,  I would love to see what  the  animals  and
plants on your home planet looked like."
   "The  plants  would not surprise you at all.  You  would  just
think  they were a type you had never seen before. We had  plants
that  looked like grass, small cacti, and ferns. Earth  has  much
more  diverse plant life. Some of the animals would probably look
very  strange to you," Lin said. "All warm-blooded animals, which
would  be like Earth's mammals, have five limbs. Animals  similar
to your fish have four eyes. We have two vestigial eyes which are
non-functional. We do not have animals corresponding to reptiles,
possibly  because  our  home world is  cold.  The  animals  which
correspond to Earth's insects look similar to Earth's."
   "What about life native to the colony worlds?"
   "None  of  them  had life more complicated than  single-celled
organisms.  That was one of the reasons they were chosen.  We  do
not  colonize  planets with advanced life, since it would  suffer
from  our  farming  and  agriculture, and  most  especially,  our
climate control."
   Lin  watched Peabody stroke the dog. He hoped caring  for  the
dog would not put a strain on his health. The brothers would take
over the dog's care if it did. Oscar certainly made him happy.
   Oscar started whining.
   "I think he needs to go out?"
   "Out where?"
   "Somewhere he can use the bathroom."
   "Can he use the bathroom in the bathroom?"
   "I  think he would be confused if we tried to make him  go  in
the quarters. He might think he could do it anywhere in here."
   "Ah."
   Peabody  put Oscar on the floor. Then he hooked the  leash  to
his collar. He took a roll of paper towels and a plastic bag.
   "Come on, Oscar."
   Peabody  walked  to the door, with Lin and Ban following.  The
door  opened  and  they walked out into the corridor.  Oscar  was
pulling  on the leash and his feet left the ground. He barked  as
he fell back down. He sniffed suspiciously at the ground. Then he
peed.
   "Good boy, Oscar!"
   Peabody  tore off some paper towels and dropped  them  on  the
puddle.
   He  realized how stupid it was to have Oscar on a leash in the
corridor. There was absolutely nowhere for him to go. He couldn't
climb  either  of the ladders. He unclipped the leash  and  Oscar
went  exploring. Periodically he ran back to Peabody  who  petted
him. Peabody thought about getting one his toys to throw so Oscar
could  fetch  it. He thought of Oscar running after it,  crashing
into  a  wall.  Well,  he could do it in his  quarters  with  the
artificial  gravity.  Eventually Oscar decided  he  had  explored
enough and stayed next to Peabody.
   "I know, Oscar. It isn't a very interesting hallway."
   "We  are  working  on  a place you can walk  him,"  Ban  said.
"Better than the cavern."
   "That's great! Thank you!
   "Let's go back inside."
   They  walked  back into the kitchen and sat back down  at  the
table.
   "Do you still feel all right?" Ban asked.
   "Yes.  I  feel fine. You don't need to worry, Ban.  The  thing
is,  I haven't done much for the last few months. I went on short
walks  in the park across from my house, but aside from  that,  I
didn't  do much. I haven't had sex since Robert died. I just  did
too  much, too soon. I plan to try to take a nap every day.  That
should help." He smiled at Ban.
   "I'm so relieved, my love."
   "I know. I scared everybody."
   They  ate  together and Ban found that he loved  macaroni  and
cheese.
   "There is no meat in it at all?"
   "No.  Macaroni is made from wheat and eggs. The cheese is made
from  cow  milk." Peabody told him. "It is delicious, Lan.  Thank
you."
   "You are welcome, beautiful."
   "Oscar really wants some," Ban said.
   "Yes.  I'm sure he does. It wouldn't be good for him,  though.
I  think  his system has had enough shocks for one day. Dogs  can
get  diarrhea when you change their food. I wouldn't be surprised
if the gravity changes do that, either."
   After  they ate, Ban said, "I better let the others  know  you
are all right. I am sure they are worried."
   Peabody  hugged  him.  "Thank you, Ban.  Oscar  is  truly  the
greatest gift I have ever received. I love you."
   "I love you, too. I love you so much, I want to sing."
   "Please sing in your room." Lan said. Peabody laughed.
   Ban  headed back to cavern seven. He was very, very glad Oscar
was from both of them.
   After  Ban left, Peabody decided Oscar needed a bed. He got  a
blanket  out of a closet. He rubbed it. It was wonderfully  soft.
He  folded it and put in on the ground next to his bed. He picked
up Oscar and put him on it.
   "Down," Peabody said, testing Oscar. Oscar laid down.
   "Good boy."
   "Up." Oscar got up.
   "Sit."  Oscar sat. He hugged Oscar. "Such a good  boy!"  Oscar
wagged his tail.
   "How about a relaxing bath?" Lan suggested.
   Peabody looked at Lan's erection.
   "Can I sit on your lap?"
   "Ask your doctor."
   "Doctor,  I want this handsome fellow to fuck me. And  doctor,
will you please fuck me?"
   Lin  saw  Peabody  was grinning at his erection.  He  couldn't
claim he didn't want to do exactly that.
   "I  suppose that if you let us do all the exerting and  we  do
it quickly, it would be all right."
   They  filled  the  Jacuzzi and got in. Peabody  stood  between
Lan's  legs. He wrapped his hand around his cock and stroked  it.
He leaned down and licked the head.
   "I want you, Lan."
   "Oh, Peabody! I love you. I want you."
   Peabody took Lin's cock in his other hand and stroked it.
   "Will you fuck me first, Lin?"
   "Yes, my love."
   Lin  stood  behind  him and pushed slowly  into  him.  Peabody
leaned forward and swallowed Lan's cock. Lin held Peabody's  hips
and  slowly fucked him. Lan pulled Peabody up and kissed him. Lan
stroked  Peabody's cock while he held his balls  with  his  fifth
hand. He cupped his cheek with another hand while he kissed  him.
That  pushed  Peabody over the edge and he came. Lin pushed  hard
into Peabody and barked as he ejaculated into him. Lin pulled out
of  him and turned him around. Lan guided Peabody onto his  cock.
Peabody  moaned as Lan's huge cock entered him. Once  he  was  as
deep  as  he could go, Peabody turned his head to kiss  Lan.  Lan
wrapped  his  arms  tightly around him and  they  kissed  as  Lan
savored  the sensation of being inside his love. Lan wrapped  his
fifth  hand  around Peabody's cock and he felt it stiffen  as  he
held it.
   Just  then  Oscar started barking. "I'll see what  he  needs,"
Lin said and got out of the tub. He used the body dryer and left.
Peabody was glad to be alone with Lan.
   Once  they  were alone, Lan whispered, "You are everything  to
me, Peabody."
   Peabody  said softly, "If I tell you something, will you  keep
it  to  yourself?" Peabody wondered if he was wise to admit this,
but  they were the ones who introduced the idea of favorites. Lan
was his favorite.
   "Yes. I promise."
   He  whispered, "I love you most." Those simple words triggered
the  most  intense orgasm Lan had ever experienced. He  held  his
love tightly as he came.
   As Lan's cock softened, Peabody said, "Oscar was your idea."
   "Yes. But the gift is from both of us."
   They  got  out of the bath. Peabody hoped Lan would keep  what
he told him to himself. He still loved all of them, he just loved
Lan more. How could he not, he asked himself. Lan cooked for him,
thought of Oscar for him, had an incredible cock and knew how  to
use it, came twice as often as the others, and smelled wonderful!
The  fact that he was also a starship pilot was just icing on the
cake, as the saying went.
   When  they  walked out of the bathroom, Lin was on  the  floor
playing with Oscar. Peabody sat down next to him.
   "I like Oscar," Lin said.
   "Me, too. Let's hope he's not a chewer."
   "What do you mean?"
   "Some dogs like to chew furniture."
   "Oscar won't do that, will you Oscar?" Oscar barked.
   "I'm not sure if that is a 'yes' or a 'no'," Peabody said.
   "Let's go watch a movie."
   "You want popcorn, beautiful?"
   "No. I'm full.
   "Let me take Oscar out first. Come on, Oscar!"
   Peabody took a plastic bag and a roll of towels and they  went
to the corridor outside his room. Oscar didn't seem to need to do
anything so they went back in the room.
   Peabody  got  Oscar's blanket. They walked to the  movie  room
and sat down. Peabody put the blanket on his lap and put Oscar on
it.
   "Play The Wizard of Oz," Peabody said, picking a dog movie.
   The  movie  started. Oscar fell asleep, so Peabody held  Lan's
and Lin's hands.
   Peabody  had  seen it many times, but he enjoyed watching  Lin
and Lan.
   "I  don't like her," Lan said of Miss Gulch after she put Toto
in her basket. "He looks a lot like Oscar."
   "The  breeds  are closely related. By the way, you  will  like
her even less, later."
   "She won't harm him, will she?"
   "No. Toto is way too smart for that!"
   Later  in the movie, the cowardly lion was swinging his  tail.
"That looks like a fifth hand on the end of his tail." Lin said.
   "Yes,  it  does  a  little. Real lion tails  don't  move  like
that," Peabody said.
   After   the   movie,  Peabody  walked  Oscar  again   and   he
reluctantly pooped in the corridor.
   "Good boy, Oscar! Good boy!"
   Peabody  was worn out, so he got undressed and ready for  bed.
He  looked  at  the  clock and it was only  8:40.  Oh,  well,  he
thought.  If I take it easy tomorrow, maybe I can stay  up  until
8:45!
   Lin  and  Lan  laid  on  either side of him.  He  fell  asleep
quickly.
