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

You are standing on the shore. The sun is shining, the sand is warm. The water is aprox. 21°C and it is rather shallow. There are rocks looking out of the water and you can see gulls flying overhead and swans swimming a bit out from the shore.

*appears in the distance, leisurely strolling along the water's edge, bare foot, a straw hat decorated with flowers on her head to shelter her nose that is already red from the sun*

*walks out of the forest and takes her shoes off*
*notices Titania*

Hi, Ti!

Lovely day, isn't it? I am looking for some pink stones to put into the flowerpots...

Hi Hati!

Stones? I wonder if there is any amber along this beach...hmmm... *digs down her toes into the warm sand*

Yes, it is a lovely day - perfect for a day on the beach, with a nice, cool, refreshing breeze from the sea...

*sits on the sand and looks around*

It's quite quiet here today, even the sea seems to be slow...
I think I'll go swimming now.
Er, I must have some extra towels in my bag, care to join?

I'd love to! *unties her loincloth and drops it on the sand*

By the way - why koala?

Oh, my shrink wanted me to describe how I feel myself in relationships. Koala, said I. That's why.

*ducks out of her dress and into the waves*

*comes panting out of the forrest*

Hi, Titania... seen Hati? Oh, I think I see her in the water...

How´s it feel in there?

Hei, E! The water is so great! Don't hesitate...

*prods feet into the water...*

*takes of clothes and plunges in... has a look at the wildlife under water... returns to surface*

Phew... perhaps a bit fresh...

*giggles*

...and quite wet

Speaking of underwater wildlife - did you see my cousins the sea elves down there?

*dives into the water*

Lovely...

I think I'll go out now and have a cigarette.

*leaves the water*

Wet all right...

*sits down for a ===~~~*

*watches the swans*

===~~

A coffee would be nice now...

Let´s go back to the house... I´d make some and have it on the Veranda... I mean: Look at that sun! should be beautiful this evening...

*dresses*

Titania, would you like to join us?

*puts on the clothes and heads to the house*

*goes back to the house...*

*head pops up in the water*

I might come by later - I've got to see my (distant) cousin Seasil's newborn daughter!

*disappears*
