A Tribute to Sci Fi Pets
I got a hankering for pets in science fiction after an earlier scifiland Big Bang. So here I’m revisiting my admiration with some verses and icons. Big thanks to my pal blue_sunflowers for the creative inspiration, which she always has tons of. (250 words + 10 icons = 20 points)
