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

*Busies himself*

*Pokes head in*

Oh sorry, I can see you're busying yourself. I'll leave you to it...

No, no, that's allright. I heard something about summoning...?

Summoning? Did I...oh yes. You very skilfully retrieved the plasticine for me, and I thank you. But the bugger of the thing is, I have no idea how to use it.

*Idly tosses plasticine from one hand to the other*

I mean, do I throw it at things or what? I can't wear it, I can't wield it, I don't think I can eat it...I need to consult the man who created Pingu - identified in the text only as 'some wretched Eastern European animator'. Once I find out who he is, the summoning can commence.

We'll need some black guttering candles, a lot of black curtains and some chalk to do the eldritch symbols with. You're OK with me chalking up the floor of your sanctuary?

No problem.

*Rummages through supply cabinet.*

Dribbly or non-dribbly candles?

Oh, and I'm keeping the Plasticine here for safekeeping. That thing is warded enough to keep out a medium to large sized act of God, and possibly the god itself, provided it's not too clever.

Great. I felt strange carrying it around with me everywhere - it started to stick into the lining of my pocket, and got all soft and squishy from my body heat. Better that it should stay here.

* off to consult wise master Google on thew Pingu problem*

::appears suddenly, and looks about::



Hmmmm... nice place, really... kinda takes after my own ing taste... I wonder where the Plastice... oh, there it is.

::strolls over to the Plasticine, entirely unconcerned with the several hundred traps he's just sprung and, absently brushing away the thousands of poisoned dart that just buried themselves in his back, he picks up the Plasticene, mutters briefly and runs his hand over the small block, thereby banishing the myriad of wards placed on and around it, and vanishes::

*Mystrunner rummages round in his pocket, pulling out the real plasticine.*

Good thing we keep a fake.

*The ground begins to shake as the Rules take hold of the shrine, and, consequentially, Mystrunner.*

Waitaminuit... if the plasticine will corrupt all but one with a pure heart... and I'm not being corrupted...

*Moral and ethical implications flood Mystrunner's mind.*

'When the revelations appear, he shall be a new man... all other ties will be severed in his new awakening...' The prophesies were right. I am free.

FREE!

*Spins to face Mr. Leigon.*

Sorry, my good sir, but the contract is at an end. I fear that I must take part in finishing the quest, and mount damp is where this shall go... *Spins plasticine*

::wonders vaguely why Mystrunner is spinning a block of plastic.. reads the blog, finds that he approves of Mystrunner's sudden change of heart, and, since he doesn't really feel like dealing with it, returns the REAL block of plasticene to Mystrunner and takes the block of simple plastic that he's now spinning and chucks it into a passing black hole::

Mysty, you bloody slacker! I should've known not to trust an assassin with my preciouss...They have absolutely no work ethic these days...I am SO angry...

*Knocks back *

Oh well, c'est la vie, easy come easy go and all that. Apparently the only powers the silly thing gives you is the power to summon up cartoon characters anyway. And what would I want with a load of garish animals running all over the place?

* off to find out where Mysty has taken the plasticine...just out of curiousity, you understand *

*grins smugly as she wonders how long the "added ingrediant in mr legions drink will take 2 affect him*
hmmmm if it dosent kill him it sure shud slow him down!
good luck mystrunner

Thanks!

Off to save the world. Sorry, Leigon, but such evil cannot be permitted...

*In a swirl, Mystrunner opens a rift to mount damp. F98316?thread=208800&post=2383326#p2383326 *

WHY do you people persist in poisoning my drinks? Haven't you *heard* of antidotes?

*Opens shirt to reveal small nifty intravenous apparatus, constantly pumping out Mr L's blood, purifying it and replacing it*

And don't even think about trying to pull this off...

*Strikes scary fighting pose, before dashing after Mysty through the space/time rip thingy*
