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

*dressed as a medival squire*
hi everyone, it's me Blue.
*wonders if anyone's here, since the last posting was three hours ago*
it's has been trick-or-treating time for the little kids for an hour and 37 minutes now.

Hello, Blue! Welcome to the party. Careful there!

*redirects Blue around the furiously cleaning lego truck*

*Alchemist lifts his feet as the truck sweeps past his barstool*
You can talk to it ... ask it to slow down, or whatever you want ... sometimes it will listen ...

Where's Dragonfly gone?

I'm not sure. She was here just a minute ago. Here, kitty, kitty.

*begins looking for the recently transformed cat*

G7

::hiding by the window next to the door, searching for the kids who are trick-or-treating!!!!::

There you are! Looking for trick-or-treaters outside!
You know, D, I think there are quite a few tricks and treats inside the party.
*Knocks gently on the window with one hand; holds other hand behind back*
I'll be your first visitor, D. ... Trick or treat?

*ZZZZZOOOOOOOOM - SCREECH!!! Cher/ Witch of Eastwick
flies in so fast everyone's hair blows back* "Hello all ya' all!!!
So glad everybody's having such a great time! Hey Kasia...you're doing a great job!!! Sure am glad I decided NOT to have this party at my Cottage!!!" *looks around at all the trash that's sticking up through the mist rolling from the floor...impressed that her fog spell worked so well* "I know you guys will drink just about ANYthing...but may I ask why you are drinking the cleaning fluid from the cauldron?"

*Kes discreetly spits his drink into a nearby plant pot. The potted plant turns shiny and sparkly, but is otherwise not affectd*

::gives Kes candy::

What a great costume!!!

Now you can add royalty to your list, Dragonfly.

The fog spell is lovely, Pandora! I was just thinking that something like that at home would cut way down on my need to borrow the robot to clean up...

*Comes back into the pub from taking a bit of fresh air*

That isn't cleaning fluid in the cauldron. Its my special Happiness brew. With a few side effects. Nothing to worry about. Tails are fun things!

Unless somebody was messing with it while I was out?

*Chomp!*
Why thank you, D. Now something for you.
*Alchemist produces a length of LEGO caterpillar track ... dull grey plastic. Dragonfly look rather disappointed.*
(Laughs). I am an Alchemist, after all, and this plastic looks rather like lead ...
*Dips it into the bowl and winks. When he lifts it out, it is a golden collar*
There you are, Dragonfly. My trick - your treat.
*He fastens it round the cat's neck*

What a lovely collar! Now that's magic!

G7

YAY!!!!

::Grins and prances around the pub, modelling her jewelry::

Just what Cat-Dragonfly Loves!!! A man with JEWELRY!!!

::Thinks:: Wow... I've really changed...

Thank you for your kind compliment Gw7en ... however, I'm no witch or magician. I know how to transmute metals ... and I did use the witches' potion to make it work ... credit to where it is due - in all things. Witches have their disciplines and magic, we Alchemists are much less organised, but are sometimes useful.

*Offers Gw7en Halloween candy in the shape of a leafy twig*

*In another Universe, an Arch offeres an ACE an olive branch*

*Alchemist observes Dragonfly's antics and smiles*
Who was it said cats can't dance? Glad you like it, D.

[Susan/Witch]

Dragonfly, you are a lovely sight in that collar. That was sweet of you, Kes.

*gratefully takes the candy and offers Kes a Y of mead in return*

Thank you very much.
