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

[Comlink] Ah, that would have been Cyris. Just wait until you meet my past self, give "me" the message, and I take it from there. He'll give a clear explaination of what's going on and how to stop it.

[The comlink lapses into silence and stays there.]

what the ´thingy' is twin jaded? ooooooh what was that word.

*screws up her face in concentration*

katana!!!!! *does a little victory dance*

right the katana is twin jaded......hang on, that was the message wasn´t it? or did i just dream it?

Gor blimey! Since I'd like to get this thing done PDQ, let's just assume that we're all back from the Trance Zone thing.


[YK, Lizzie, and whoever else was here return from the portal.]

*Reads "Trance for Dummies". The book then dissolves.*

Ooooo, I hope that doesn't help BBW in any way.

Well, I'm back.

[YK] Great ... who else was here?

[Janine] Me.

[Lizzie] Me.

[Ifrit] Me.

[YK] Um, Ifrit, you don't count.

[Ifrit] Damn. [disappears back to wherever Summoned Beasts go when they're done being summoned]

dunno why but i'm here

If you forget what you're doing here, read a bit of the backlog.

i was supposed to be telling someone about a katana being twin jaded or some such thing, would anyone like to hear about that?

[YK] Who said it, may I ask?

I'd be interested in hearing it, personally. I'm a follower of "The Things That May Very Well Be True When You Go On An Adventure" guide-book. And, as it reports in Chapter Seventeen ("Stories, Songs, And Rumours"), section two through seventeen, and I quote,....

"Any myth, legend, rumour, or song that you happen to hear during your quest is most likely going to be extremely important in some unpredictable way later on in the story."

[YK] That's true. I mean, take "Adventurers!", for instance. I seriously doubt that when Gildward (the spoony bard) learned the Song of Finite, it was going to help them defeat the Eternals.

Yeah, or take a few of the Zork games (I, III, Enchanter, Sorcerer, Spellbreaker, Wishbringer, Beyond, Zero, Return To, Nemesis, and Grand Inquisitor by my count). For instance, in Zork Nemesis there are at least two different places that you can read and/or hear about "The Journey Of Saint Yoruk", detailing how this extremely lucky mashed potato merchant was able to make it to the depths of Hades and back. Needless to say, later on in Nemesis you have to go through almost exactly the same thing.

um some guy called rubicant told me to say it to............oh wait he told me to say it to darkman shadow. wherever he is.

[YK] Why not tell it to me? He's me from the future, so if you tell me something, he'll know whatever it is eventually.

o.k well i was just told to tell you the katana is twin jaded and that you wouldn't understand probably ........(??) it was all very confusing. lots of clouds.

[YK] "The katana is twin-jaded" ...?

[And then several contradictory facial expressions, mostly of surprise, cross Yar's face.]

[YK] Uh ..... wurg ..... [or words to that effect]

Ah, yes. The plot becomes clear now. But not from my point of view, it would seem.
