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

Martin, after Grandplan, can we keep Ethan on as a companion for our stories? Even if he only appears again in our next story. Please?

Also, I had an idea that maybe at the end of Grandplan we could have an Epilogue Episode showing what happens to all of the characters? If we do use this idea can I do the section for Chekawowe and Nhssca?

Sure thing Mike, I like Ethan as much as the next person

and yes, epilogue section sounds great. I could do the one for Raspy?

Actually Mike, Could we find a way to bring the original Romana into the story so that she can kill off Rasputaltron, I've thought of a good way to kill him off, thats not to say he wont return though. I just want to have him die at the end of this story.

Certainly, I've got an idea. When it is revealed that the Mind is you-know-who (in case anyone else is reading, also can I write the revelation bit?) he could create a kind of psychic plain for the final battle between the forces of good and evil (he's become kind of impartial since dying) and the Doctor and Rasputaltron can draw people from their past to aid them, Rasputaltron - Barok, the Master, the Daleks, the Valeshini, etc... The Doctor - Romana, Chekawowe (especially Chekers as I want to get him off of the planet of the dinos in tie for the epilogue), Ethan...

You get the general idea. Do you like the idea? Obviously the Doc wins and the Mind destroys the planet to prevent it's powers falling into the wrong hands again.

Excellent idea Mike. I had an idea that after Rasputaltron dies, he can extend his influence from beyond the grave, and in the up coming season 29 I had an idea that he is able to speak to Romana from beyond the grave, because she was the one that killed him.

And certainly you can write the Revelation, can write Rasputaltrons death?

Also, you mentioned the Master, could we leave him out? I think we should just stick to the bad guys we have had in this story for now. I've also changed mu mind about Barok, I think he should return, possibly after this story he is freed from death and allowed to have his life back?

Also, with regards to the Valeshini Emperor and Tor Garane, I think they should win, possibly the remaining Valeshini realise that Raspy is gone and defect to the Emperor once more? and then Worlak and Chagrin, collins and shravok take over the Rutan and skellion forces.

Sounds good Martino me old chap!

Who have we got to do Epilogues for?

Raspy

Chekawowe and Nhssca

The Doctor and Ethan

Chagrin and Co.

Tor Garane

Valeshini Emperor

Anyone else?

Um...Miss Donna(if she returns)

The Rani and Davros.

Ah yes, I forgot them! What about Gallagher and Davies (the ones from 2999)?

I dont see why they shouldnt feature!

Also I'm going to introduce a new villain, who is going to remain a mystery for quite a few stories yet. And I only want to write one scene for this character in every story, in GrandPlan he is going to be talking to Tor Garane. He is a character who uses the same temporal communication technology that Raspy did in Chekawowe.

Okey Dokey. Um, Martin, you do realise you got that last bit in Grandplan wrong don't you? 'cos you said Raspy tried to get into the TARDIS, but in my bit before hand the Mind had already dematerialized it. Maybe this is just confusion over what dematerialization means. dematerialization is when the TARDIS takes off and materialization is when it lands (materialization means, it becomes material). Yasee?

No offence intended and I hope I don't sound nagging.

Aploagies Mike, apolagies. I have re wrote my bit to correspond with yours, boy is my face red!

Cheers Martin, I hope I didn't sound nagging or anything like that. I know it happens some times and don't worry, I've contradicted myself in my own independant stories, now that's pathetic!

mike, just to clarify, dont write any of the scenes with my 'Humanoid Figure' in them, I hope this isnt too rude of me. It's just that I onyl want him to appear once in every story, and he's not going to be in contact with the Emperor again after this story, he has got he wants out of the Emperor.

Have I got you asking yourself who it might be yet?

Also I changed the person 'humanoid figure' was communicating to from tor Garane to the Valeshini Emperor. Hope you dont mind.

No, no it's all fine with me.The shadowy figure:

Enigma?

The Master?

Someone from the Dalek Master Plan?

None of those I'm afraid, ha ha ha...I've got everybody guessing now! ;0

Phillips?

Martin, I was thinking. Once we've finished this story for Richard's arc it will be nearly a year since we wrote Trap of the Daleks. Do you think we should do a special story for the first anniversary of Penny and Mills? Possibly a silly one?

Sounds good to me Mike, and nope, it's not Phillips!

Also, are we going to bring the Rani and Davros back into Grandplan, or just leave then now, I think it might be best if we did, as it will only overcomplicate things.

Yes I think we should leave them. There's no reason to reintroduce them, they don't have any of the crystals and as you say it'll just make things complicated.
