Just to say, Kay is actually talking in an English accent at this beginning part. It's hard to get that across on paper…

Or… on the computer screen, I guess…

I really regret not naming Kay Honda. That would have been funny.

Disclaimer: You know the drill. His, not mine, blah blah blah.


"AIE!" Feldspar was a bit startled to find Kay on his back.

"'Ello!" Kay grinned a Ford-Prefect grin, even though she thought it really should be called a Kay-Prefect grin. "'Ow're you! Wha are you doin'!"

"Why are you talking like monkey?" Feldspar made a face.

"Oy'm celebray-in monkey-boy and 'is new low-ver, Fenchurch!" Kay nearly screamed, to make sure EVERYONE on the within a 2 mile radius heard.

There was a silence.

Kay realized that she was in a hallway, and everyone else on the ship was absent, her brother included. 'Shit…'

She looked around and found what she was looking for.

"I SAID!" She yelled into the intercom, "OY'M CELEBRAY-IN MONKEY-BOY AND 'IS NEW LOVER, FENCHURCH!"

There was yet another silence as Kay and Feldspar waited, Kay for her brother to come running, and Feldspar for nothing in particular.

Sure enough, there were sounds of blue suede shoes running down the corridor.

Kay smiled a Kay-Prefect smile.

-------42-------

Arthur Dent didn't like that sound.

The sound of blue suede shoes.

No, that wasn't a nice sound.

Especially when accompanied by soft growls and little giggles.

Arthur had been in a pretty good mood, considering the new girl he had just met. Unfortunately, Kay decided that all had to end, because, well, she was bored.

Ford turned the corner to see a worried Arthur in the middle of a swig of tea. Ford wondered briefly where he got that, and dismissed it for an even bigger question.

Ford smiled.

Arthur backed up a bit.

"Where've you been?" Ford asked, tilting his head.

"Eh… over… there…?" Arthur pointed in the direction he thought he had come from. He was a little disoriented at this point, but he figured he there was a 50 chance he was right, considering there was only two directions he could have came from.

"… I see…" Ford said.

"… yeah…" Arthur said.

"Heh…" Kay said from behind the wall.

Then, unfortunately, Fenchurch walked in.

"'Ello!" She said.

Ford jumped.

-------42-------

"What's wrong with you?" Arthurasked about 10 minutes later.

'YOU'RE WRONG WITH ME, RETARD!' Ford thought, but all he could get out of his mouth was "Eh… well… er…"

"Heh…" Kay stifled her laugh.


For some reason, Ford tackling someone, anyone really, is just the best thing of any kind ever.

Ford/Arthur next! ((dances))
