If he's returning from the Orient, is that why he's disoriented?

((Joe the bat needs to get out more, sooo... Hope you don't mind.))

Somewhere along the way, a silver-furred bat circles overhead briefly, and then swoops down to land on Ford's shoulder, clinging with his claws. "Nice kimono," he says.

Ford winces when he feels the claws, but recovers quickly and grins at the bat.

"Thanks. I picked it up at a club in Kyoto. Or possibly at a club called Kyoto. One of those."

Aware of his latest victim's new friend's discomfort, the bat shifts about until his claws are only material-deep. "Hm. Very good quality." He makes a show of nosing at the kimono as if to judge its quality, when he's in actuality trying to (subtly) sniff Ford's neck. "Did you enjoy Japan?"

"You know how it is, rice wine and karaoke, what's not to like? Although there was a noticeable lack of suspiciously friendly talking bats."

Domino was taking her usual cigarette walk. There's nothing like fresh air while you're poisoning your lungs, she thought. However, her attention was drawn to a man in a robe, and she stopped. She made it very obvious she was staring at him.

Ford notices Domino and stares back. He doesn't blink. He trained himself to blink now and then because it seems to bother Earthlings when he doesn't, but he can stop any time he likes. His smile is somewhere in the nebulous regions between "goofy" and "menacing".

From a distance, Sirius spots a man with a pipe of some sort sticking out of a satchel. Could it really be...

"Dung!" he shouts, striding quickly towards him. He hasn't seen his old pal Mundungus Fletcher in ages. Knowing Dung, there must be some really interesting items in that satchel.

researcher42 August 10 2006, 07:29:57 UTC

He looks curiously at the man approaching him. "Sorry, what?" Dung? Ford glances quickly at his shoes to see if he has inadvertently stepped in something. No. Perhaps it's some sort of ritual greeting where this man comes from. "Shit!" Ford shouts back cheerfully.

toujours_sirius August 10 2006, 08:22:06 UTC

"Deal gone wrong, Dung?" Good ol' Dung, always cheerful even when cursing up a storm. Molly Weasley could say what she wants about Dung, but Sirius would always consider him a right bloke and a good mate.

But as he approached Dung and was about to give him a man-hug and ask what good stuff was in the satchel, he suddenly realised that Dung was not Dung at all.

"Oh - sorry 'bout that, mate. Thought you were someone else, an old friend." He held out his hand. "Sirius Black."

researcher42 August 10 2006, 08:27:53 UTC

Oh, Dung was a person. What an unfortunate name. Perhaps this Dung person had also been confused about the planet's dominant life-form.

He shakes Sirius' hand. "Ford Prefect. Nice to meet you."

Abby was out for a walk when she noticed...was that Ford? He'd been gone for quite a while, and so much had changed. At first, she was going to walk past him, but decided to stop.

"Hey, stranger. Long time no see." She grinned.

researcher42 August 10 2006, 08:09:39 UTC

Ford shifts guiltily when he sees Abby. He suddenly feels like he's been caught at something, although he can't think what. The feeling passes quickly. He smiles back at her.

"Abby! How've you been?"

cafpowgirl August 10 2006, 21:34:47 UTC

"I've been good. In addition to being insane, I got turned into a cat by magical chocolate. I got better, as you can tell. You also missed the Prefect elections." She grinned widely. "I won! It came down to a runoff and I won!" She was glad to see him again, and hugged him.

researcher42 August 11 2006, 03:14:34 UTC

"Turned into a cat? Was it fun?" It sounded kind of fun.

"So you're the new Ravenclaw prefect! Congratulations." He hugged her and gave her a pat on the back. "I can't think of anyone better for the job."
