h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

captain jedi, you just said hello to the ruler of the world you have just threatened to take over

you are very political you know, perhaps you should be an ambassador maybe. in the style of Londo Mollari(the best if you ask me).

*Some extra tenticles wrap around her legs and arms. The tenticles tighten, yanking het bones further out of their sockets and crushing her fore-arm and upper arm bones*

What currency do you require? And how much of it?

Altarian Dollars, 500 per man per day and you get the White Star with her vorlon biotechnoloy and other bits and pieces, i'd like to get to grips with some of your technology too maybe we can come to some arrangement, could you loosen the tentecle on the left a little please it's digging into my ass

*The tenticle loosens.*

Good. We can pay you that.

*Two warriors malk in with a turtlish thing in tow. They rap on its skull and its shell opens. There are neat bundles of altarian dollars in the amount required for a 10,000 man crew for a month*

Is this sufficiant?

Done, ok when and where do you want us to start, does the White Star need a refit with some of your technology.

Is this a handshake contract or is there some custom of yours I need to honour

Creachy I have just seen Londo Moralli. Thanks, yes I would love to be an ambassador.

kat

could all non-bunker talk please either be moved to another thread or put in "ooc"s?

You do not need to undergo any rituals at this time. I think these will help your ship become yet more survivable against our enemies. Please go out and help destroy the un named ISD that is harrassing by beuatiful world ship

*Four more pairs of warriors enter with more cargo turtles. three of them possess modified dovin basals. The fourth possess a portable embrace of pain for Reefgirl's private use*

I think you might enjoy what's in the last one

*The lead warrior strokes the embrace's head and it releases Reefgirl into his arms, he sets her on her feet.*

Thank you your supremeness for you generosity, I need to know how these Dovin Basel things work

*Walks over to shake hands with the supreme one*

I hope this is the beginning of a long and prosperos *licks lips* relationship

*shakes her hand*

Place the dovin basals on your ship's hull and hook them up to the closest senso-nueral nerves possible, there's a hole on the back for that. Then tell your ship's brain to tell them to defend your ship from attacks, or increase manuverability, or act as a secondary Faster than Light travel system, or a secondary artificial gravity system, or rip into enemy shields. Which ever seems to be the most needed at the time. But know that they cannot do more than two such jobs at once and as the battle drags on for greatly extended periods of time they will start to get tired.

I can also provide you with a Yammosk war co-ordinator that will greatly increase the dovin basals' accuracy and stamina. But it will have to be transported to your craft in a special shuttle, as it is a rather large creature.

*The room shakes, the lichen on the walls shimmers breifly and then returns to it's normal illumination. The Commander gently touches Reefgirl's arm as though to guide her from the room*

[Commander Shai] I think the surface of the bunker has been compromised. We might wish to leave.

*One of the warriors presses through the sphincter hatch it is all organic tech you know that leads to the surface*

[warrior] it's totaly blocked.

[Commander Shai] there are other ways out. Shall we then?

If you let me have the palm pilot I had with me when I was captured I'll get us out of here, if you don't mind a little unorganic technology to save your ass

*blows the walls and ceilings up*
Hiya, everybody! Who're we fighting?

Us

*shoots Ralph with a stun ray*

Vive la franc, vive la deuchmark, vive la numbered bank account in Swizerland.

The former German currency is commonly spelt Deutschmark.
*collapses into unconsciousness*

Thanks for the spelling tip

*picks Ralph up*

All your's commander, just don't try him with the embrace of pain he's not got the stamina

*Throws Ralph in the Embrace of pain and leaves an exucutor to take care of him. The hole in the bunker is plugged by the good of a Rakamat and Commander Shai motions towards a far exit*

*follows the commander*

*cough*

Lot of dust in here

*cough*

When was the last time you used it, shouldn't be too long before Helska is yours

It was installed right when we arrived. It is icky, but nessessary.

*Leads Reefgirl to a secure docking bay and escorts her to a large shuttle that contains all the dovin basals her ship will need, and money she and her crew will need for several months of oporation*

*kisses her hand*

I hope this is the start of a beautiful relationship

So do I Commander Shai

*Kisses his cheek and whispers*

Anything you need from me just ask

Maybe I can offer you some of our biotechnology in return

*creeps out of a shadow, looking vaguely worried, neatly chloroforms any guards and claws the be tentacled pain deely to shreds, neatly setting Ralph on his feet.*

You Ok?


I, uh, beamed myself here.... not too sure how I'm gonna get back.


You got any transport?
