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

You know, seeing as this place is in black and white, I don't think a disco ball would really change this place much.

*slips back in through the door*
ah nothing like good old b+w!

*Looks at BarBot. Realizes that BarBot's back from the good old days at CLI when most of the machines they had were built fromthe scrap metal of a giant UFO that crash landed. Decides that it's about time he had an upgrade*

I'll be back soon! I've just got to do a little 'tinkering' on BarBot. Need some tools.

*Teleports out with an evil glint in his eye. BarBot winces*

Maybe we should set up a ballroom, and put a mirrorball in there. Also, we could host a ball there, to generate publicity for the hotel.

Just a thought...

Hate disco balls. The sparklies hurt my eyes.
I will have another ginger ale with two cherries while barbot still works heh heh heh.

Telegram lady, why don't you take my payment for telegram? Customer after me paid with a diamond!

*Affy teleports back in, carrying several strange looking pieces of machinery. He manages to drag BarBot into another room. From behind the closed door, sounds of drills, saws, lasers, and other various tools. When the door opens, BarBot resembles a purple squidlike creature, with several arms and eyes*

He's got enough arms to serve a ridiculous amount of customers now, and enough eyes and seperate processing units to actually think about someones order instead of just randomly throwing it together.

*Sets up BarBot who looks relieved to be done with the system upgrade*

*recoils at sight of barbot* Feh! Affi, you could frighten customers off! Put a tuxedo on him or something! heh heh heh
*nibbles at cherry and enjoys noir atmosphere of bar*
*remembers* Course, all black and white so purple won't show.

its simple styx, we accept per word....ie one of ANYTHING per word. The solution is very simple, simply break what ever it is you would like to pay with into enough pieces to cover each word.

oh and feel free to pass the message on payment on to the "hat lady"

*Thinks that, sooner or later, Styx is going to run out of adjectives for different people*

What adjective does styx use for me?

*chews on cherry stem, red eyes glowing*
Adjec-tives heh heh heh! Mostly for ladies.
Chrome is OK. There's guys with white hats and guys with black hats. Chrome is a white hat, right.

No hat on Styx, Styx walks the edge.
Another ginger ale with two cherries.

*Unsure if he wants to know what the difference between a white hat and black hat is*

*looks around, walks slowly up to the bar*

I like the looks of this place.

Barbot: a dry Ketel One martini, straight up, 4 olives.

*sits at a table in a particularly noir corner*

*watches Moniker Lady, red eyes glow*
noir, bar, heh heh heh
You visit the salon, I seen you there.
*dunks cherry and nibbles*

I thought I might run into you here, Styx. Lots of shadows, good for watching.

*orders another martini*

*agreeing nod* Good bar. You don't dunk olives?

Indeed, I do.

*Shows Styx how the 4 olives are impaled on a cocktail pic in her drink.*

I work my way down in between sips.

Down where?

To the end of the pic, Chrome. Styx likes to dunk and nibble. So do I. Do you have a garnish of choice?

*decides she is pleased to find something in common with Styx*
