Ghost Stellaflora sees Dr. Sputnik
and walks over to him
"Hello, I'm Ghost
Stellaflora, Whats yours?. I'd shake your had but it
would only go straight though, so I'll give you a
telekinetic handshake instead"
Dr. Sputnik's
hand is shaken by an invisible force
"I'm
sure theres more room for another
adventure"

"Oh, I really do believe so! I think BG
has plenty of room! And by the way, I don't think we've
met... I'm Speedy," Speedy said as she hands out her
wing. Suddenly, a person in a white lab coat with a
dirty backpack came walking up. "Dr Warrell! You made
it!" Speedy said after she shook wings/hands with
dr.sputnik's hand. "Who?" asked dr.sputnik. "Dr
Warrell, I would like you to meet dr.sputnick.
Dr.sputnik, this is Dr Warrell," Speedy said. Dr
Warrell's eyes grew large. "Do you work for NASA?" he
asked dr.sputnik.
I take it no one got
my Monty Python reference on the last page... eh oh
well. Your loss.
Unaware that Prof. T, whom he had
assisted in shaving that fateful night, had not only
forgiven everyone, but had also recieved presents of
apology, Quahog linked cautiously to his Nexus, still
unsure whether using linking books would be a good idea,
as the shaven squirrel was still in D'ni, to the best of
his knowledges.
After a while of rummaging
through his backpack, and exstensive punding, Quahog
finally broke through the Nexus wall, and climbed out
into pitch black darkness. He walked on for a while,
until he saw something gleaming in the darkness. A door,
ajar, lay at the far end of this blackened room. He
wlaked over to the door, went through it, and found
himslef, surprisingly, in an age he'd seen before. Quite
often, actually. Just not in such detail as
this.
Dilbert did a double take when an unshaven,
two-headed man stepped out of a door in the wall
opposite his
cubicle.
I forget which books mention it, but
the present in many of them is the Century of the
Fruitbat. But yes, the Orang Utan would be Discworld,
too.
Possibly, the whole list is just a Monty
Python reference, but I don't remember a list in a
sketch with those materials in it.
Quahog
looked around. Yep, Dilbert was staring confoundedly at
him, and Wally, over by the water, was telling Alice how
"Programming is just like shelling peanuts. The biggest
thing you'll get out of it will be insignificantly
small, or will be gobbled up by elephants...". Quahog
walked over to an unused cubicle, logged in as himself,
and began creating a letter of apology to
Thietrus.
I'm sorry if you suffered from the
terrible close shave we gave you. Please don't be mad at
me. - Quahog (left head)
It wasn't my fault, my
stupid left head got me into this. I'm sorry if being
hariless was a problem. - Quahog (right
head)
After sending the message, Quahog got
up, went over to Dilbert's cubicle, and caught a glimpse
of a jungle-ish age on his computer, before Dilbert
quickly Alt _Tabbed to his regular work. A thought
struck in the right head. Was it possible that, maybe...
Dilbert's company was creating Uru:
PoTS?!
Luckily, Quahog had brought a camera with
him, and managed to take one picture before Dilbert
closed the program.

Actually MrD, the list
from the lambs to the fruit bats is a MP thing. Check
out the The Holy Hand Gernade, towards the
bottom of the page for the whole story/joke.

Speedy gathered all of the stuff she
needed for the journey and packed it in her backpack.
Luckily, the additional plummages did not take up too

Ok, all set! Speedy smiled
as she closed her backpack and went off to find BG since
she is ready to go!
Right away!!! no, I'm kidding. you can
start loading your gear and finding a stateroom any time
you link to Elkae's. I have a sign on my stateroom door;
other than that, First come, first served!

Speedy grabs Dr Warrell's arm "Come
on, time to go!" Speedy said. "But I was just about
to talk about rocket science with dr.sputnik..." Dr
Warrell pouted. "Oh, there will be time to do that on
the boat. I would like to get a room," Speedy
said. "And where is this boat? I see nothing in the
lagoon," said Dr Warrell. "We need to link to it.
It's at Elkae's Relto," "Do we really need to
link?" "Well, unless you have directions on how to
get there and you have transportation that can get you
there in the next hour, then yes you really need to
link," "Oh man... I don't like linking," "You'll
get used to it. Not every place has big
creatures," Speedy places a wing on Elkae's Relto
book and links out. Dr Warrell, with some hesitance,
follows in pursuit.
Cruiser links into the institute and
goes to her office. Once there she checks her messages
and leaves a note, saying she would be checking back to
see if she is needed. She puts on her backpack and
picks up her notebooks goes out and closes the door, on
her way out she stops to give Seymour a treat and links
out..

links into the Institution late Wednesday evening, after
celebrating his mother's birthday, and continues with
the second P.I. case he's been hired to figure out. An
unnamed client left a note inside his Takotah Alley
office requesting he investigate who was behind the
'hare-brained' idea to shave the good
professor.
As he was snooping around near the
classroom door, he tripped over a book that was leaning
against the wall, just inside the wedgied-open
door.
OOMPH!!! Oh no, I hope I didn't
wake the professor. What's this?
He picked up
the book. It was entitled "Barbershop
Quartets - A Little Off The Top". On the inside
cover there was a handwritten message, written in purple
ink, "I hope you enjoy this book, Mom".
Hmmm.
I wonder whose book this is?
He put the book
into his leather bag and dropped by the Egg Room for a
late snack of strawberries and whipped cream on angel
food
cake.

Veronica passes Chuckles on his way to
the Egg room and yells, "I say, do you have any new
information for me?!" She continues walking toward the
DISCO, calling over her shoulder, "I got into that
office on the docks by the ferry terminal, but I need to
go back there and look some more. Stop by and see me if
you find out
anything!"
Chuckles58
follows Veronica down to DISCO to discuss her
case.
Hi Veronica. Sorry I've been busy with this other
case as well, but I did find out a little. Not sure it
helps though. The picture was taken in Ae'gura well
before the modern discovery of the cavern in 1987, and
the DRC wasn't formed for 10 more years.
One
other thing, I found a hair on my desk from the evening
you showed me the letter and photograph. I haven't
completed the DNA testing on it, as the equipment is in
Stellaflora's Team Bahro lab on Eder Gira, and it is
still set to keep me out. Agent Inigo Montoya has taken
the sample to run the tests. Hopefully we'll get some
information back soon.
"What could all of this
mean? And why after ALL these years have they chosen to
contact me now."
The one thing you may need to
begin to consider as even remotely possible, is that you
may be part
D'ni.

FM arrives at the dock with a large
backpack and a very large violin case with him...he
checked his own list of items he'd need to
bring.
-antidotes to all known poisons (and all
known mushrooms) -lucky charm that is meant to repel
attempts at knocking you out - rabbit (if the foot is
lucky imagine how lucky the whole thing is!) - dried
frog pills - small pile of traffic cones - eight
sticks of dynamite - journal - pens - maths
homework
After making sure he had everything, he
took his luggage aboard, claimed a cabin that noone had
taken yet, and wandered back to the deck to find
everyone else..
