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

hello? i lost my nametag... it says 'fluffykerfuffle who is now learning more stuff"

but nobody is here.... i see since 2005 ...so now what do i do?

Hmm...we could alway atart it up again...unofficially, as it were. Losing a nametag is a very serious thing indeed. I could help you look for it. I have WAY too much time on my hands at the minute

ohhhhhh could you? that would be so nice because i am running out of places to look...

.. . . ...glances casually around, scuffs some detritus with a toe. ... ... . . .

maybe we should start in here? s'kinda messy and could use a sorting out anyway.

Right. I'll check those boxes in the corner. If you could make a start on those shelves, we'll be in business.

*Takes the first box and starts riffling through it*

um... okay

. . . . . ... . ....looks around at shelf upon shelf stacked covering all four walls and .. . ......waaaaay up ... . .looks up .. up .. up at the shelves that disappear into the distance and the darkness of the high loft. . ... . ... .

which ones?

*Actually LOOKS at the shelves*

Umm...are there any ladders around? If not, I'd stick to the lower ones.
That's where something put recently is more likely to be, in my opinion.

.. . .nods. .. . gropes way to closest shelf... .

um do you think we could turn a light on here?



NARRATOR: there is a rustling noise coming from the shelf the fluffy kerfuffle has approached


eek!

sorry that pesky narrator keeps following me around and he scared me!

You've got your own personal Narrator? I'm impressed. All I have is a talking spider with a cheesecake obsession.

* leaps from nowhere onto my shoulder*

Master!

Ah, Boris. Go and make yourself useful. Go and investigate that rustling noise while I try to find some light.

*Boris scuttles towards the noise while Aximili gropes along the walls looking for a light switch*

. .. . ...peers thru the murk.. .. .

just how big is he?

Oh, don't worry. He's only little and not at all scary...AH-HA!

*There is a click and the room is flooded with murky light*

ooooooooooooooooo he's cute! . . ... .tickles him under his thorax. .. ..

. ... .pulls a outa my pocket and gives it to boris. ...

* rolls onto his back*

: Mmm, Boris like that...

Boris, we're supposed to be looking for Fluffy's name tag. I'm sure she'll tickle you all you like afterwards.

hehe its okay. .. .. ....watches as one of boris' hind legs jerk jerk jerks as i tickle him more. ...

soooooo lets see here...

hmmm the light does help wow... look at all this stuff!!

*Finds a piece of paper*

Is this what you're looking for? *Hands it to Fluffy*

ohh . ... . rummaging to the back of the shelf. .... . .



wow lotta broken hearts here

Aww. Once we've found your tag, we can come back here and fix them.

huh? . .... .. .takes paper and squints at it.. ....

oh um no it says "we are sorry for the inconveni.... " the rest is too blurry


no my nametag is plastic ... like yours there... . . . ....points. ... .. . and has "fluffykerfuffle who is now learning more stuff" on it
and it has a pin on the back

Hold on a tic....

*Rushes over to a large box with the label 'Name Tags' on it and begins rummaging.*

Help me look in here. You too Boris...oh I forgot. He can't read.

Let me see...Nighthoover...nope...ooh, that one might cause a stir, though.
