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

I have seen a Valkyrie, I only see them when someone dies before my eyes, we must take care that nothing befalls this ship. But this spirit...what do you make of it? I have heard it on deck, just that it was passing, it did not speak, just passed by. Little Lizzie seems to be able to sense things, do you think she senses anything of us?

I know not my friend. I do know that there be another ghost on board now. I will try to talk to him again. So far I have not had the chance to talk with him. How about you my friend? I had not thought that the Hunger would return so quickly. I do hope that you can last the voyage. The Mistress of the ship has asked me to help watch over dear Lizzie. Mr Gilling be talking with her and she wants me to help out. She be a good lady so I will help her as I would the Captain.

I had to drain a rat that the cat had killed , disgusting, I hope that it will appease my appetite for the time being.... someone or thing has been tampering with my tailsman......... is there anything special about this coin?



You've always been the kind soul....

I can tell nothing specail with the coin. Be this the one that Lizzie found?
I do hope that nothing goes wrong with my talisman either. I could not do my job without it.

I do not know if she found it, but it was the one that was knocked out of her hand by the ghost.... how would this ghost knock it out of her hand......?

I know that before we obtained our talismans I could cause some small things to happen. It be called poltergiest I think.

Talking about me, are you?
Hic!
/* Glares ineffectively at Volkert, who of course sees nothing */
Don't lose your balance!

A warm greeting you my friend. I assume that you are who I felt when I aborded this fine vessel. I am glad to have met you at last.

It might have been me. Did I look like a bird to you?
Hic!

Can we talk in front of... that...
~ points at Volkert ~
whatever it is.

Volkert be a good fellow. I do not recall seeing you when I boarded, I just knew that this ship felt like someones home. And then I could not sense you about. Pardon my asking, why have you the hiccoughs?

I can't get rid of them.
hic!
It's from the bottle, you know. hic! Powerful stuff.

Hic!
Did you say your friend is a good swallow? I'm looking for a raven.
Listen, Vulchur, or whatever your name is, I don't like the looks of you.
hic!

And why is that friend? Pray tell, why did you knock this coin here out of the little one's hand?

You did suprise the little Dearie with that...

I never! Who? What coin?
hic!

Do you mean the little girl who smells like a cat? She needs a bath! I didna knock anything from her hand, I was tryin to get a closer look, is all.

Do you mind if I ask how you can both be dead and solid at the same time? And do the others know?

hic!
Did I ask if you saw a bird?

Why do you haunt this ship?

The others are blisfully unaware....and it would be better if they remained so

You did mention a bird somewhere........

I saw no bird. As for I, I am what you are but not exactly.

I am captain of this ship, and I will have no birds aboard!
Hic!
