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

*waves tentacle as no, then starts tickling Peregrin*

Squatch Squatch

Aw... how cute.

*puts Peregrin down and starts a bowing, wavey sort of motion on the floor in front of him and BB*

Good tentacle, nice tentacle. Look, he wants something. Not a drink... not surprising seeing as it doesn't have a mouth... perhaps it wants to play? As long as it's finished playing with me I don't mind...

I'm not surprised - afterall Menza doesn't even keep a football down here for the tentacle to play with... I'm sure the tentacle would make a great goalie.

And it would play a mean game of rugby

Very true... I wonder if it has considered ballet?

*slowly turns blue in his face*

Blue is the best colour to have a face, PhilFogg.
Makeup makers would be jealous of that tone.

*wrestles playfully with Tentacle*

*takes a quick journey to the h2g2 Hospital to get his cracked ribs and slipped discs fixed*

*throws a stick for Tentacle*

*rushes after stick, letting go of PhilFogg*

Squikkkkkkk.

Good tentacle!
I think we'd better get a frisbee... I mean, a stick is all very well and good, but Tentacle deserves better.

*eats stick*

Hey, it seems to like that

*Throws an entire branch for Tentacle*

Kind of cute, isn't it? I mean, when it's not smashing you into the ceiling. It seems to be a... er... puppy/kitten/child/kid/whatever you call a young tentacle. I hope that doesn't mean it'll grow even bigger.

*slowly regains composure*
Something just occured to me.... Something's supposed to be down here, right...??
Something so terrible Menza doesn't even wanna tell us, right??
Hmmmm.... I wonder... what does Tentacle have to do with this??
I find all this rather mysterious.... don't quite like it... I don't know....

I thought Tentacle was the something mysterious....
That is, apart from Kitty.
I'm surprised Kitty's not greeted us yet....

I find this obvious lack of information highly disconcerting.
Really.

*is dead, for some obscure reason*

Well that has to be the shortest presidential stint in history.
