ON TO THE LAUGHS!!!!!

***

Kaylee wombled about under the main console in the Heart of Gold. The reason she wombled on this particular day, while surrounded by the rather delicious smell of a cooked space goose, was simple. In fact, almost as simple as why herds random letters would gorgniegh, or why mattresses named Zeb would froogle about.

Kaylee wombled, because she was poking about inside the guts of the ships engines, while also lazing about, while trying to look like she knew what the Hell she was doing when she honestly had no clue at all. And, she decided to create a word for it.

She had already used Remalphaxy, which meant that she was dreaming about Simon while working under Serenity's engine and fixing a power converter. Darquabn was taken, as it meant tuning out Mal when he was yelling at folk for being idiots, which was rather hypocrital of him, as he was a rather large idiot himself, but she never tell him that. She had also gone through Garglesnuff, Higlypiop, and frohgiutiuion. She didn't know why she labled things like that, she just did. So, she decided to use the word 'womble'. As it was, Kaylee was rather good at wombling, even though she had never did it before this very day.

Of course, the major problem with wombling is that one is rather likely to touch something that one is usualy not wont to touch, as something very bad is likely to happen. Of course, Kaylee was sinultaneously wombling and groozling (to groozle, one has to drown out the voice of Marvin by humming tunelessly to oneself), which almost doubled the risk of doing something moronic.

In fact, that is exactly what happened. She touched something she was wont to not have, if she had known what would happen. There was a flash, and she and the console were surrounded by a six foot wide bubble of infinite improbablity.

Of course, Arthur and Simon were completely surprised when she disapeared. They had both been demi-groozling, which was drowning out the droning Marvin with tune

I just love reading these. Quirky and funny and I love the blend between the two series. Write more please!

Hehe, this is great! I love how you can really make it seem like Douglas Adams wrote it. I also liked the reference to Piers Anthony's great series!

Uh...can I get the ten points by identifying the orange gi-wearing figure as Naurto?
