[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.]

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.

It's not bad, it's just inconvenient. At least I didn't find out by turning on the shower, as several people seem to have done.

I should keep a bottle of water in the fridge, though, if this kind of thing is common.

[dr_conscience]

Right. A lot of people have gotten soaked in beer.

That's a good idea. I should do that, in case this happens again... I don't want to be stuck with no water.

The beer's not bad, though - I mean, if you drink it, it's actually pretty good.

We probably shouldn't drink this whole thing...

[as_damaged]

...what whole thing?

What? Ohh, I said that out loud?

[dr_conscience]

Oh...

Uh, well...

[dr_conscience]

... the bathtub?

[as_damaged]

Oh.

Of course.

[dr_conscience]

Well... I mean, it's full, and we can't let it stay full, or the tub will get stained. And we can't just let it go to waste down the drain. It's free, but it's also good. And festive.
