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

*gets out the things and gets a brew on*

Time for a little light refreshment at least.

D'you reckon it'd be possbile to directly link the VR sets we were usin' directly tae Affy's set so we'd appear wheree'er he is?

That's a good idea Mr. D.

*Starts looking around Affy's chair for any handy sockets.*

*None are found*

Anyone got a welding torch?

*chews gum*

[Lentilla mutters from beneath the helmet:] We could always weld Affy into his helmet, I suppose...

[Yar] Hmm ... what happens if I do this?

[He goes over and attempts to simply pull the helmet off Affy.]

I have my carameliser, I'm sure the flame can be focused down enough to weild.

*As Yar attempts to take off the helmet, a look of concern crosses his face, his hands twitch, and the floating box begins shaking ominously. Affy carefully pulls his hands away from whatever he sees in front of him and holds his breath. In a few moments, the shaking stops, and he continues his work, hoping that no more strange circumstances cause things to happen like that again. Assuming that Yar stops, the Universe isn't destroyed. Again*

I'd love a cup of tea, Caer.

*waits for the tremors to stop*

This is terribly boring, waiting for the universe to end over and over again. *brightens* Maybe virtual reality has changed since the last apocalypse!

[Lentilla mutters from beneath the helmet] Looks the same to me, but maybe it's because the refresh rate is a bit slow. I'm currently in the imaging room, in the shape of a platinum key.

Do you think we should all go back in and try not to do whatever it is we did last time that we shouldn't have done?

We could form a millenium cult...

*resignedly sits down in a chair and puts on VR gear*

*Sits and puts on VR gear, again*

*Returns from RL vacation, finds reality quickly destroyed, and then goes back in again*

[Yar] Hmm. Ah well. [puts on his own helmet]

*chews gum*

*drinks her tea*

I'm not rushing my cuppa and biccies!
