[The Network device has been bumped as Wilson's poking around in the kitchen this morning (making his special macadamia nut pancakes). There's a few moments of clanking and rustling about, before the sound of the water turning on. Then, there's a surprised sort of yelping noise.]


That's - green. The water's green.

Well, how am I supposed to...


[Sniiiiiff... pause]


That's... not water.


[There is a quiet, small sipping noise - just a taste that he spits out, before he calls, more loudly-]


House? The faucet's spouting beer.


[There is a slight thudding as he picks up the device, noticing it's on.]


Oh. Hello, there. I'm going to assume the beer in the faucet isn't an isolated incident. Am I to take it that this is the City's idea of festivity?

Great. I haven't even had my shower yet.


[End.]

Beer? And-- oh my god it's green.

[dr_conscience]

Well, at least it's festive instead of violent... though the apparent lack of running water is an issue.

[miss-waldorf.livejournal.com]

I haven't taken my bath yet.

[1inageneration.livejournal.com]

No. It's happening over here. My shower conveniently decided to turn halfway through.

[dr_conscience]

Ohh... I'm sorry, that's an awful way to find out.

I'm becoming more grateful by the moment that I decided to make breakfast first.

LOL SHE'S LIKE...WHAT'S WITH ALL THE EMPATHY ASLKJDK WILSON

[1inageneration.livejournal.com]

It's okay. I think. My hair still smells like a pub, though.

You could make your frozen orange juice with beer, just to mix it up.

Actually- don't. Knowing the deities, it's probably weird beer.

[specialagentgf.livejournal.com]

I have the same problem. Happy St. Patrick's Day.

[dr_conscience]

It does seem to be universal.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, indeed. At least it's festive, I suppose.

[specialagentgf.livejournal.com]

Festive and a little bit disgusting.

[horrible-protag.livejournal.com]

It is quite an interesting curse, to be sure. Probably in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.

[dr_conscience]

That's been my assumption.

Inconvenient, but at least it's not as harmful as some of the curses have been.

[horrible-protag.livejournal.com]

There is that, yes. Perhaps we should take this as a means to just enjoy it.

[mr_phale]

Well on the bright side, it's rather good beer. Rather.. good beer indeed. Mmmmn.

[dr_conscience]

Is it? I only took a bit to taste; I don't particularly trust the deities...

i don't think it needs to be said that he's drunk. :/

[mr_phale]

Oh, in general, really, this sort of thing is fairly harmless. Er. I mean, aside from it being green, which is unnecessary but I suppose festive, though the whole matter of this celebration is a bit confused in my opinion. I mean, certainly it's a very green country, good soil and such I suppose, but really. And all that business with the snakes, hnph. I mean, of course classically the implications work, in an, er. An-- a metaphorical fashion, but really most snakes aren't so bad when you get to know them.

The holidays festive spirit are enforced to us to celebrate. This one has been light to what was Valentine's Day or Christmas.

[dr_conscience]

Well, yes, I'd say it's far from the worst the City has tossed at us.

It's mostly just an inconvenience.

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

Like when it forces us to fulfill the mistletoe tradition or plays matchmaker during Saint Valentine's Day.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Best day. Maybe best day ever. What are you complaining about? It's free.

[dr_conscience]

I'm not complaining about the free beer, it's the lack of water that's annoying.

Free beer is actually fine with me. I'm all for that.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

I've heard of people having a problem with tap water, but never bottled.

Good. Now help me drain the bathtub.

Someone's had one too maaaaaaany.

[witchinbloom.livejournal.com]

It's green. That's funny 'cuz beer isn't usually green.

Ish it?

Awww hahaha XD

[dr_conscience]

Not usually, no.

I think the consensus is that it's in honor of St. Patrick's Day.

[as_damaged]

Just another charming day in the City.

[dr_conscience]

Well, there's been worse.

I mean... I mean, there were some shower issues, but, well, if the worst the day does is soak you in beer, then that's not so bad. I mean, a few days ago, you were-

Uhhhh, I mean... um. Nevermind that.
