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

This is the inside, and due to someones incompetence, the OTHER thread is outside.....

Now who did that?

The Story so Far....

In the begining the universe (No wait)

Blob is about to be (lightly) grilled by jacculus and myself, and MaW is trying to -ahem- 'persuade' us not to have fun without us. It is fast becoming a hostage situation

[in a speculative tone of voice] the interesting thing about Balefire is that it removes things from the Pattern a short while before the Balefire actually hit them... therefore recent actions can sometimes be undone. The more powerful the Balefire, the greater the time-lag effect.

* fiddles with ter'angreal *

I wonder if this ter'angreal can do variable power?

* a bar of pure white light lances from the ter'angreal and slices a portion of the wall out of existence. since the wall was removed before the balefire hit it, we find that it has already collapsed, but the dust is still settling. *

Sorry... I know someone who's very good at rebuilding walls...

* Pulls small fun particle generator from pocket, presses small stud on top at which interesting whizzing noise emanates from device. Lays in middle of floor and surrounds with a very strong protection field to stop MaW doing nasty stuff

DAMN! now the fun particles can't get out

* goes back to the drawing board.

Cover the blob with breadcrumbs, Tim.

*slides across ceiling and tells jacculus that bread crumbs and blobs don't mix*

anyway aren't you wondering how come there are several copies of me?

[YK enters, with his hand still behind his back] Nope. Bread crumbs get digested by blobs.

[recites] Oh freddled gruntbuggly
Thy micturations are to me...

* breaks off due to compromised artistic integrity caused by Vogon poetry*

No, I won't be reciting any more of that.

* Puts ter'angreal in pocket and withdraws small device from other pocket. Looks at it. Frowns. Puts it back. Scratches armpit. *

[YK moves his hand away from his backpack, but keeps it around there]

*Pulls Garden Vac from back pocket, loads with bread crumbs, and points it in a random direction*

Heh heh!

-Obsured speech due to noises of high velocity bread crumbs hitting the blob.-

*wanders in totally confused* I thought the Blob was about to be grilled out on the garden BBQ where the Sponge and Blaster were grilled last. *looks around* Hmm.. These walls do at least seem a bit more stable, if dusty and.. oh no. *sighs*

*wanders out to garden to see if the heavy metal object things are still flying at the falling sky*

I think some people are happily existing on more than one place at once. Is this possible? No, of course not. I stand up for the laws of reality!

* Gets out Balefire ter'angreal again and uses it to annihilate Tim's Garden Vac *

And the rights of Blobs!

* Produces a very handy Freeze ter'angreal and uses it on Tim, encasing him in a block of solid ice *

Now, quickly, before the ice melts! What are we going to do with him?

Hey,MaW,that weapon gives you too much power!

* Quickly disables it, freeing Tim from ice.Green strands of light encase MaW, leaving him unable to move.

* Puts key to magic in pocket,and smiles smugly

Its possible 'nonnie, possible....

er, odd things do happen to reality in h2g2, ask the blob, he seems to be the resident expert on multiple existences...

*frees MaW with swift strokes of pencil.*

There, now, its much warmer now isnt it!

I thought Eddie (of Space-Time Continuum fame) was the expert. Well.. perhaps things will settle down when the storms pass.

'Nonnie

* scowls at jacculus with such ferocity that the Roman is almost turned to stone *

I wish looks could kill.

* Draws katana *

Is this any fairer for you?

* leaps towards jacculus *

Defend yourself, Roman scum!

* slashes and hacks viciously *

[However, MaW finds himself slashing and hacking against a lightsaber, because YK, feeling a disturbance in the Force, flipped over him and drew the lightsaber, using Jedi reflexes to combat him.] Hmm ... didn't know katanas had energy fields that could combat a lightsaber!

Of course, to be fair, I didn't know katanas /existed/ until just now.

*Grins, and rushes into the fray with a comicly oversized light-hammer*

[YK flips over Tim so that he is now dealing with two threats from the same side, which is much easier to deal with than two threats on either side]

A Katana is a kind of curved, very sharp sword - and of course, mine's no ordinary Katana. It's a cheaty one! But then I'm a cheaty me as well.

* abruptly teleports out of the fray to the other side of the room *

Come and get me!

* Turns MaW into a small and frustratingly cute-looking hedgehog. Quickly keys the spell to his own DNA pattern.

NOW lets see someone free him before I want him to be!

* Draws large banging implement and jumps beside YK.

Come on,Blob!!
