by steviecopeland

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy+1
by Dent (OokidoShigeru)
Random stared enraptured by the tick-tick-ticking of the little watch in her hands. The complicated dance of the little hands, going round the face in their timed steps, was fascinating all on its own. The Watch Scene from MH, from Random's perspective.
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy+1
by Dent (OokidoShigeru)
Random thought about family and thought about birds and thought about Earth. She and her father were well and truly homeless now, it seemed. No Earth. No going back to Lamuella. No real direction in space. Random's feeling a bit introspective- or perhaps a bit sulky- after surviving the events on Earth. After all, who else understands what it's like to carry the weight of your parents' homeworld which you never really knew and was effectively destroyed before you were born?

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Douglas Adams+1
by Dent (OokidoShigeru)
“Well, anyway, your weird little man is broken.” Arthur jolted upright. Vertigo was having none of this, and pushed him back down. “What do you mean?” “The guy you came to Earth with,” Random clarified. “He’s got himself in a box in the back there being strange. And- I didn’t do anything this time! He was like that when I found him.” Ford is feeling a bit emotional. Arthur tries to help.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy+2
by DoctorProfessorSong
Sometimes you want something more than your towel to keep you warm at night. Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect have been best friends for years. Ever since his planet (literally) and life (figuratively) got blown up, Arthur has been searching the galaxy for a place he belongs. No matter where he goes, nothing quite fits. Meanwhile, Ford has been running for most of his life, never stopping long enough to get to know anyone. Well, except for those times he got stranded on a backwater planet and found someone worth taking with him. But no matter how fast he runs, he never quite finds what he is looking for. Given the chance to travel without the looming threat of being thrown out of an airlock or turned into a penguin, Arthur and Ford are discovering that they just might be looking for the same thing. Set vaguely after Mostly Harmless, but they are alive. Somewhat canon compliant to the books with the caveat that elements of other sources are picked and chosen at the author's whim.

by dentarthurdents
Something appeared to fall out of thin air directly in front of her, and she jumped back screaming. The thing- person- shot up like a rocket, screaming in kind. “You! Who are you!” The girl looked tired, she looked angry, and she looked like she was drawing back with a sharp rock.Quinn C. Dent is, so far as she knows, a perfectly normal teenage girl. Her family life's a bit chaotic, but otherwise she's no different than any average person on Earth. Things are about to take a very odd turn for her.
