Summary: Zem's optimism can't help Marvin. (68 word drabble.)
Authoress' Notes: There is a special seat in Hell reserved for people who slash robots with mattresses. I wonder what colour my chair will be? And "Nachtmöbel" is German for "night furniture," according to babelfish.altavista.com. I was out of ideas for a title. XP

...wow, I didn't post this until late May. Odd. And yes, I'm aware that the notes are significantly longer than the fic. I'm sorry.

--------

Zem loves Marvin.

Zem smiles. He imagines the robot happy and relaxed on a bright, warm area of a better planet. It could happen someday.

Zem wants Marvin to be happy.

Zem flollops.

They pause.

Marvin sneers.

Marvin wants Zem to be killed.

Marvin smiles. He imagines the mattress gutted and dried on a dull, cold bedframe in a dank room. It will happen someday.

Marvin hates Zem.
