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

OK, so I was scanning through the backlog of the donut stall when I see you talking about saving the galaxy... Please, tell me more...? I'll help all I can...

Ah, Eomando. So good to see your support for the galaxy-saving effort. Basically, there are Horrible Somethings and they have antisocial designs on the galaxy. I'll explain more once the rest get here.

*leads E to briefing room*

As far as I know, DD, GL, BB, Croz and yourself have all pledged to help. We just need to wait for the others to turn up. Hopefully Afgncaap5 and Joanna will help out too, although I gather joanna's pretty busy at the moment.

Good to have you on board, soldier!

OK, I'm in.....do I get a light sabre?

I'll be issuing weapons later, but yes, you can have first dibs on a lightsaber. Good to have your support, BS!

Well, I'm here too. Can I have one of those double-ended light sabres? On second thought, I value my legs, so I'll just take a regular one.

Ah, GL, good of you to join us. Of course, we have multiple lightsabers, so you are welcome to put your name down for one. Now, if you'll excuse me...

*goes off recruiting*

*Eyes brighten at the sound of "lightsabre"*

Now, I'll *definately* help. As long as someone eventually explains what terrible thing these Horrible Somethings are going to do...

What am I left with then the *forks* (sic)?

LOL

I don't think so DD...I think you've been left with a very interesting report of what the Horrible Somethings have been up to lately...

...Hmm...

Yes, DD, you are left with the forks.

But they are very good forks indeed. Cosmic Control Forks, set of two, stainless steel, very swish. Mastery over reality ecksetra.

Thanks for joining us.

Wow, cosmic control forks.

*Looks impressed or is that confused*

Doesn't mean that you're sticking your tongue out?

I do that to concentrate.

...I thought that "" meant that you were ill...and sticking your tongue out...and...

...Never mind...

...Any idea what the Horrible Somethings are trying to do...?

Al's being *dead* quiet about that.

LOL. Well, they killed him, didn't they? I think that's reason enough to stop them...we can't have Horrible Somethings running around killing researchers now...

Absolutely not, I've just been listening to the radio, and the football, could we mange to kill Ole Gunnar Solskjear instead. *evil grin*

You'd have to persuade the Horrible Somethings...

Here's hoping they are ABU fans then.

lol...

OK, so how're we supposed to stop the Horrible Somethings from killing any more researchers... We need Al to come back from wherever he's haunting...

...Hmm...perhaps the rabbit that deaded Bluebottle was working for them as well...
