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

So you're going to leave me alone in the dark then ?

Did I ever tell you ......

*unknown, hairy hand positions itself on RD's shoulder. Noise of *

*really starting to get nervous*

What's that noise?

It's probably me. I normally have tea about 4 hours ago.
*Large, unknown hairy hand rests itself on Vb's shoulder* Noise of more
Is that you Scandrea?

No...

*starts running so no large hairy hands will rest on her shoulder
Promptly runs into wall.*

Owww...

What about if someone opened the curtai...mmmpf!
*Hairy hand moves from shoulder to mouth*

*still in pain on the ground*

What was that? Can't hear you. I'm going to try to find a window, or door, or something.

*tries to stand up*

Where's all this coming from?

Mmmmmnpf mmmmfnp mmmmfpfp!
Mmmmpf?
*scratches vest again to release odour of spring flowers, meadows and little dicky birds singing their socks off,*

SHUSH! *hopes that puts an end to the nasty sound of *

Um, is it just me or has the reset-universe countdown stopped?

*definitely doesn't want the universe to reset in case he ends us being a mobile phone salesman or having some other hell-spawned job*

I don't hear it anymore. Come to think of it, I don't hear Vestboy or Red Dog anymore either...
Have you found a window, or a door, or something?

[Yar takes out a remote control and punches in a few buttons.]

[Computer] Nine hundred and twelve eleven ten nine eight seven six six-and-a-half six-and-three-quarters six-and ... no wait. Oh, whatever!

[There's a huge burst of light, illuminating the whole room. The view gets sucked into the light, like a paper being pulled through a hole in by its middle. Nothing happens for a second. And then there's a KER-SPLOINK! noise and the view gets replaced by a starfield. Which then contracts, revealing the lab before the bio field got put up, except that Yar and the Ape are still gone and the Divine Will of the Macrocosm from Excel Saga (it looks like a ball of space with arms) is there instead. It produces from nowhere a seesaw and a plush bird. It puts the bird on the lower end, then pounds the upper end, thus flipping the bird at all present. It, the seesaw, and the bird all vanish.]

*wimpers a bit in a dark corner*

*can't really do much except stand there and stare with her mouth open*
Just out of curiousity, is this what passes for normal around here?

*wipes plush bird on vest*
That was a neat trick. Are we still in the same universe or have I got to collect a whole new set of stains?

[Yar] [entering] Same universe. Different ... well, nothing really, except that the Divine Will of the Macrocosm brought everything back. Anyway ...

[Yar pulls a lever. The floor opens up, depositing everyone in A904303]

*before the floor closes again, a small voice can be heard, muffled from under a pile of three other superheroes.*

Owww....

That was fun. Please, whoever controls the links thingy could you make mine point at U45662 as I've now been able to get it back.
*Steps off Scandrea*
I thougth I was taller for a minute there.

[Yar] Hmm ... Well, ever since the Clintstar Expanse "incident", I've had this key from the Keymaker, and I'm working on making keys of my own. Somehow I don't think he'd appreciate that, though ...

errrr that'd be me ...... and it's done Vestboy

*peel self off ground, and staggers off to look for an asprin, muttering something about having to find a flea collar for Tracer.*

Tracer is the wolf that follows me around. He's not really a pet, but more like a pack-mate. That said, Happy Easter, everyone!
