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

thanks!

I had a dream about you and Ralph last night... I can't remember it very clearly though. I noted it down somewhere.

now i'm curious.

had an incredibly weird dream just now. woke up and couldn't sleep afterwards, so I started drawing it.

I was in a place not quite unlike how I imagine hell to be.
I was dressed in my long coat, with the gloves, and holding a scimitar.
I was standing on a tall rocky spire, with flames bursting around the sides.
From that spire I could see pretty far into the depths where i saw insane things happening. too crazy to describe properly (eyeballs with optic nerves attached as tails flying around, caves shaped as demonic faces, people inside them. some were falling off other spires alike mine.)


Four deranged looking creatures climbed over the edges of my spire, and urgently told me in whispering voices that there were things i had to do.
I told them i would do nothing, and drew the scimitar.
They came at me, making strange noises, and one grabbed my arm.

i woke up at that point, sort of desoriented, went down for a drink and booted up my computer.

here are the results :

As I may have said before, if I dream at all, it's pretty damn scary.

Dream - leading an exodus of people through a flood. Felt like we were going to school, only had more significance attached to it. I for some reason was only leading girls. Helping them wade through the flood, picking them up and putting them on banks and high bits when we got to them. I only saw males once in the dream when the girls led by me were going to the long way round, but it involved a rather enjoyable slidey bit and the girls were therefore more optimistic and cheerful, but the boys were going the short way but they all had their heads down and looked miserable.

Dream - Bit I can't remember.... then a male friend of mine is sick with cancer or something weird. It's terminal and there are horrible mutated lumps on his back. There are two 'adults' and they're being really interfering. I feel that I can heal him, and ask if there's anything they use to treat it. They give me some eczma cream, which is, naturally totally useless. But I cover one of the sores with it, then put a terracotta pot over it upsidedown and close my eyes and relax, healing it with my superpowers (naturally) and it comes off beautifully leaving perfect smooth skin underneath, then I rub in the left over cream. I remove another one the same way but then the 'adults' drag him away and start interfering and take away the pot and the cream, and I get really frustrated because there's only this one chance to heal him and the magic won't last and they're condemning him with their actions.

The decider of fates is sitting behind a desk in a corridor/room. you go in one side to face him, he tells you your fate, then you're suddenly transformed to wearing pure white and carrying a white pillow, then you leave to be reborn.
I walk in as a prince and he sneered at me and decided that I would be a fool in my next life (the career not the intelligence).
Death walks in, as it's the apocolypse and he is the last to die. He has big black wings. The decider raises an eyebrow as he walks in.
"Is it time already?"
He tries to renew death but there is too much power in him and his wings - the seat of his power are too bound into his soul. So death renewed leaves wearing white and carrying a white pillow, and also carrying a larger, black pillow.
The decider says "Careful, that's a lot of power."
He's grumpy because he has to give people their fates, but he can never have one for himself.


I noted down vampires on the piece of paper but I can't remember that part at all.....

On a space ship. The Americans decide that they have to mine the moon for some reason. They explode it to pick up the drifting pieces.
However, when one stops, it unfurls and turns out to be a sentient, blocky looking robot. There's something scarey about it. It's subtly hostile. They say they ran out of fuel and are waiting for methane and co2 emissions on earth to get high enough for them to recharge.
The Americans begin to cover the earth in factories pumping it out. They build them on countries they haven't asked permission of and everyones a bit stroppy.

At the bright beach a gang of naughty youths, myself with them, push a rich, scroogey old man down a drain. He slides down it, finally shooting out of a waste pipe into a horrible estate of blocks of flats and greyness. The water that swooshed him down wrapped round another, poor old man and sucked him back up onto the bright beach and he was all wonderment and delight.

I dreamed the powers of testicles started an afterschool club with free internet access and stuff for a small fee run by Sarcasm. And my little under-16 mate joined and I was like, okay. The powers aren't really the random lighthearted funness anymore.

I dreamed I was a real dark hearted scarey crazy scarey murderess. I'm intimidating people and enjoying it and then someones laughing at me and teasing. And I'm wondering how they could dare to, that if they continue they're going to die.

hmmm, the testicles part might be referring to the forum, and events beginning to unfold now that we're actually becoming a little more famous around.

people think it's too cool, and everyone wants to join these days, if we're not carefull we'll lose what we were all about ; a group of close friends enjoying each other's being silly sods.

We could let lots of people join and become a secret organisation like the freemasons. Only cooler and more fun because girls are allowed.

being another well-poked and slapped around feminist, i'll agree on that

Huzzah!

We need a secret handshake.

we do?


i thought the standard dutch "metal mates" handshale did fine.

I don't know that one.

's waaaay simple:

shake hands normal way,
keep thumbs interhookes, pivot hand upward grab other hand with ring and middle finger and extend pinkey and index finger devil sign style.

end.

Very cool.

Dreamed I had to travel somewhere very quickly. My friend told me that we should use the mirror gate. Three of us went to this place, they weren't happy about us using it as it is corrupting power.
We took it out of a metal cupboard. It's a big tray full of ice and rocks. We put it on the ground and stand in it with bare feet thinking of what we want.
Imbedded in the rocks are a few powerful and corrupting minerals. Like quartz in granite. They are red and poisonous. They remind me of uranium. They are beautiful and translucent and they can run out of power by turning green then clear. We transfer and I pick up a large, beautiful example from among the ice.
I travel by train for a long time. There's some kind of lake of river.

Me and someone else are training a mage. The other person is a purist. I can tell that the mage wants power. So I whisper to him to seek the dark Gods without the other hearing. I tell him that he will be powerful beyond his wildest dreams, but will come to an unpleasant end.
The I'm in a futuristic court and the mage I advised is dressed in spikey black armour. He ends up being taken away for torture and execution. But he doesn't regret his choice. He tries fairly well to convince everyone that he isn't practising dark magics but it's not too hard to see he is.

There's a girl who's off on some kind of darkness fuelled trip. I think she's evil (dream knowledge).
There are three deer and a rabbit. One of the dear is white.
The bunny is smoking the tail end of a cigar before chucking it down and putting it out with his foot.
The girl thinks the deer is pretty and friendly, but the deer is trying to kill her. She sees it gently butting her, but it's slamming into her with all it's force and it's killing her.




Complex water tunnels, mechanisms that are no longer understood. A huge complex castle with water machinery running through it and complicated water ways. I'm trying to work it out with a map.
