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

*Catches a random snowczar blast in the face*

*the security bots suddenly make their move*
*one bot shoots the snowzar out of Matina's hand*
*other bots concentrate their gloop throwing and move toward the cleaning bot*

*it becomes obvious that they have taken up Matina's garbled suggestion and are herding the cleaning bot toward the door that leads to the tunnels*

Oh dear - leave you lot unsupervised for a couple of days, and all mayhem breaks lose! I won't be online every day (on vacation currently) but I'll try to keep up in general


*has done her best to avoid getting soaked, sticky or smeared by huddling in a corner with the CLI umbrella opened held in front of/over herself*

*the umbrella seems to be repelling most of the stuff*

*Gets up after Red Dog's tackle and is promptly knocked down again by the gloop thrown at him by various people. Gets up again and starts throwing handfuls of gloop at the suspended Affy. Affy starts swinging. GL times his throws to emphasize Affy's motion, like pushing a child on a swing. Affy's swinging makes the spray issuing from the IIEM alternate between frozen and hot (that's how the hot chocolate was able to his Red Dog despite Affy's snowzar). Feeling that continuity had now been repaired, GL starts pelting the immobile Red Dog with gloop, burying him up to his collar.*

**sees what the security bots are doing* Yeah! go bots, go!
*begins pelting the rafter huggers with goop*

*Face still frozen, starts lobbing blindly at the rafters*

*Seeing Zomnker's frozen features reminds Witty of those Grinning Bob ads from 42,000 years ago.*





*Hits the floor and a huge splat sprays the entire cafe.*

*still prostrate and immobilised is completely soaked by a wave of goop caused by Witty's fall*

Great ..... well that about sums up my day !

*Gets knocked off his feet by the tidal wave of gloop. Looks over to where Red Dog was and sees only a nose sticking out of the gloop at one end and a skull sticking out of the gloop at the other.

Stands up. The tidal wave has given GL an idea. GL turns towards Zomnker and slaps his clown shoe on the floor. A considerable quantity of goop squirts out from under the shoe in Zomnker's direction.*

Has anyone noticed what that gloopy stuff is doing to the walls? I reckon we've got a new industrial cleaning solution!

*points at an area of wall where the muck has struck and then run back down, underneath the paint has been stripped back to clean plaster*

And it's still tasty too, apart from the bits of feather and fur, and as long as you stay away from the areas that are the color of the walls.

/* The tidal wave of gunk takes him out below the knees and sucks him under, for another good mouthful */

I dink I dot sub ub my nothe.

*jumps up, slightly forward and down again, like a child puddle slosher, and is gratified to see a wave of goop slap against the cleaning bot at about its waist level. That the wave also knocks Garius down is accidental*

*the bot seems to actually lift and set down again slightly toward the door*

*Slaps his clown shoe in Lil's direction. Purely accidentally, of course.*

*Tries sneaking up behind Garius but his shoes make squishing sounds so, he is not very successful at it. Trips Garius up anyway and lays him in the muck*

*emerges from the goo behind GDZ and taps him on the shoulder. When he turns round pulls open the front of his trousers and tips in a pile of goo Three Stooges like*

*Looks up from his prone position in the muck just in time to see Red Dog dump glop down Zomnker's pants. Starts to grin, but then has to duck as the skull whizzes back and forth over GL's head.*

Stop wagging, Red Dog!

Bad Red Dog! Bad!

*smears some more gloop all over RD*

*stomps again, sending another wave at the cleaning bot and accidentally tipping over all three stooges -- GL, RD and GDZ*

WAAAAAAAA!

*Looks around, sees Lil.*

shall we get her?
