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

*space station security cameras focus on Peet, who may take the pills. If that is the case, the cameras will shoot, although they failed to do that when the guy picked up Engel's notebook*

*E takes the pills off Peet before he can take them. She clicks her fingers & they miraculously disapper...*

*At exactly the same instant, a pint of cider containing a drunken goldfish appears on the table next to her*

This finger-snapping thing is starting to get a little disturbing...

Ah...you're telling me...that's never happened to me before...I thought I'd perfected finger-clicking things away to avoid doing the dishes...

I think it's some sort of inter-dimensional goldfish... The level of the Cider's going down, but the fish isn't getting any bigger - just looks drunker...

Well...it can't be my fish Chance & Ardal...if it was them there'd be 2 of them...

Maybe it knows the monkeys...?

...OK...perhaps that isn't the best of thoughts...

I don't suppose there's a donut franchise amongst the "free" shops here? Preferably one with strong, dark coffee available?

Mmm.. donuts, and will there be Tea?....Green Tea?

As soon as I came that finger snapping thing startet to fail....I'm sorry, I didn't mean to influence your spirits...

*click* "let it be a green tea, let it be green tea !"
anyone wants something green tea smelling red stuff??

Er... I just think you may have been a little "overenthusiastic" with that last finger snap - Engels appears to be bleeding...

Owww...
Anyone got a bandaid?

Aww...diddums...here you go...

*hands over a ::[]:: *

Computer, report supernatural activity, if you please.
[Supernatural activity at maximum allowed in Space Station. Restrict?]
Negative.
Odd, your bleeding was indeed caused by the finger-snapping thing. I'm not going to disallow it, but I must warn you two clickers to be careful.

OK...perhaps we should resort to finger *clicking* rather than finger *snapping* then...?

Thanks E
*places the bandage over his wound, that was caused by snapping*
Hm... maybe the clicking would be safer....Maybe..hopefully

I thought I always "clicked" my fingers...

Oh well...it'll be safe...either that or I'll dust off that replicator over there...

Isn't that the replicator the monkeys use for replicating dust to keep the cleaners in employment?

No...that's the replicator *above* the one I'm talking about...that's why it's always covered in the dust the monkeys spill...

*mixing drinks the old way in order to make friends survive...*

*gets out a duster*

Right...

...the Great Hall will live again...

...it *will*...
