Semi-Open RP: Astronomy Field Trip

[world_builder]

((Open to everyone who signed up))

Last time Slartibartfast had done one of these, he'd carried everybody to Magrathea in an old converted van. This time, there were so many people going, he'd had his ship the Starship Bistromath delivered, and it now sat idling on the lawn. Irrational behavior wasn't going to get them to Magrathea in anything

God, this looked to be either the weirdest or the best thing he'd ever see--hell, maybe both. Shaun didn't know what the hell to expect from this trip; he'd just signed up because the idea of touring a factory that made planets was pretty cool, even without knowing just what he was getting himself into. He eyed the spaceship, occasionally poking at it with the cricket bat, and wished that Ed could have come on this, too--well, alive Ed; zombie Ed would have just tried to eat his classmates.

Ofdensen looked around the crowd, trying to pick out a person that would look like a Shaun Riley. Having failed in said picking, he turned to the nearest person (who happened to be Shaun) and asked, "Do you happen to know which of these persons is Shaun Riley?"

[redonme]

Shaun jumped, and grinned. "Yeah, that's me," he said. "You Charles Ofdensen?"

[charlesofdensen]

"Yes I am." A bit jumpy, he thought. "Anyone you know on this trip?"

[redonme]

He shook his head. "Not really. I couldn't pass the idea up, though--I mean, I met this guy a while back, the one who's running the trip? He said he actually built the earth. I was kind of waiting for him to give a tour, actually." He leaned the cricket bat against his shoe, idly balancing it on his toe. "You know anybody else here?"

[charlesofdensen]

"A few. I've talked with Miss Murry and Mr. Kennedy. And Aayla." Ofdensen was a bit skeptical as to whether planets were built. "I sincerely doubt that one man could build a planet."
