Sunday Morning: The Park

The duck pond was just melted enough so that if someone were nutty enough, they could tool around it in a canoe.

And that nutty person just happened to be a guy who loved talking about beer.

"The way I see it," he called out to anyone passing by the duck pond and staring at the idiot in a canoe, "People used to know about nature. Respected it. Then they figured they'd try to make it better. Take beer. Can you imagine why anyone would want to add anything artificial to anything that comes naturally with ingredients like grain, water from the Rocky Moutains, barley and hops?"

The man shook his head half in amusement and half in distaste at any beer brewer who wasn't solely based in Colorado.

"Neither did Coors," he said with seriousness that one could only have when talking about a beer so good it could only be Coors.

[Open for interaction or your parkly needs. Also? I WANT A FREAKIN' BEER!]

Jameson Rook had not been able to find the heiress he'd made passionate love to, and so he made his way down to the park.

He watched the man in the canoe. It seemed like something Bono would like, and Jameson Rook knew what Bono would like.

"You know what trait I like in a beer?" the man in the canoe said as he paddled by Jameson. "Patience. It's what struck me the most while learning about Coors beer. The malting through to the brewing. Aging. The whole process. They never hurry. It takes about twice as long to make Coors compared to any other major beer. Yep. They do take their time but you can taste the difference right here. A beer that's a little less heavy, never bitter with all the spirit and patience of a great beer."

She had been walking through the park, frying pan held loosely in one hand as she noticed the man in the canoe.

Clearly, he needed help.

"This is your brain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyXFN4ocN_o)," she began, holding up an egg that she had not been holding before, and setting it on a park bench. "And this --" a twirl of her frying pan, "-- is heroin." She then launched into the rest of her impassioned speech, destroying some dishes, clocks, and other items that had not been there a moment ago.

When she was done, she dropped her frying pan on the bench, looking at right at him. "Any questions?"

"Whoa there," Wade said, wondering if maybe this was the biggest nuthouse in the entire world. It was a possibility, all things considered.

Although, she was kinda hot, so...

"Mind telling me where we are?"

[identity profile] gorka-wolf.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 08:41 pm (UTC)(link)
"We're at the point you need to choose," she answered offering him an egg. "Are you going to let drugs destroy your life?"

"Yes," the man in the canoe replied. "Different. How many times have you heard that word? But how many products really are different? How many beers? Well over the weekend I'll be telling you about one that is. Different. Today, I'll be telling you about a brewer that takes unusual steps to make a difference worth tasting. A beer that's a little less heavy, never bitter with all the spirit of a great beer. The story starts over in the Rocky Mountains. The only place that makes a beer that good. Coors."

"Beer is a drug too," she pointed out. "Not heroin, but still a drug."

"You have heroin?" Nikki asked, trying to follow along and failing, miserably.

[identity profile] gorka-wolf.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
She looked around warily. "Maybe."

Really, you didn't get to be this skinny without help.

At which point Layla showed up with a carton of eggs and handed to the girl.

"Thought you might be running low," she said cheerfully.

[identity profile] gorka-wolf.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
"A little," she admitted. "Would you like to give it a try?"

Let it all out, blonde-girl. Swing the frying pan and Just Say No to Drugs.

Proto hadn't seen Makita since Friday, so he'd started sauntering toward her with a smirk. Now he was frowning.

"What?"

[identity profile] gorka-wolf.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
"Have you thought about how drugs could ruin your life?"

Makita was going to want to kill herself once this wore off.

Robin had gotten up early (the best superheroes were all early risers), so he could continue his hunt for the Coors Clothes Bandit. This was one of the stranger villains he'd had to hunt down.

He thought he heard the word Coors (or it could have been coolers), and so he came over to the pond to investigate.

"Do you know what's the deadliest thing to a beer is?" the man in the canoe asked. "Heat. You see most brewers use pasteurization to purify their beer. Me? I prefer a beer that's purified in a patented process that help keeps its natural flavor."

[identity profile] robinthefrog.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 07:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Robin had not known that. And nice alliteration.

Holy prohibition, I may have just found the Coors Clothes Bandit.

Too bad he was out in the water. Unless...

"And what beer might that be?"

Seeing as he might not have been Canadian in this incarnation and... well, he slept on the park bench because he didn't feel like killing someone for a hotel room, Wade was forced to stare and wonder what the hell was going on here.

On the plus side, this guy probably wouldn't start crying at him.

"Are you advertising?"

[identity profile] famous-gut.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 05:39 pm (UTC)(link)
"Nope," the man replied with a sunny grin. "You see, I've been a beer drinker for a bunch of years. Like you, I've seen a lot of beer commercials. But one beer that people loved before it was even advertised. You see Coors was kind of the beer at my folk's place. They thought it was different. Special. That was true before there were any jingles or promotions. It's the product people love not the hoopla. You think about that the next time you want a beer that's a little less heavy, never bitter with all the spirit of a great beer."

Didn't that seem like a perfect moment for a comic misunderstanding?

"No," Nikki said quickly. "I'm not advertising. I wouldn't turn down a reasonable offer, but that doesn't mean I'm advertising."

That was probably illegal, anyway.

[identity profile] mouthy-merc.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Because that's just what you need in the middle of a beer commercial. A lil' sex appeal.

living_endless: ([au] death on holiday)

[personal profile] living_endless 2010-03-08 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Death had been curled under a tree at the side of the park, enjoying the spectacle. It helped that she'd arranged things so no one would see her; people tended to be ... unsettled ... when she was visible.

Usually.

But when she spotted the love of her unlife, she let the veil drop to the side so he'd notice her. He didn't seem quite right -- too healthy, for one -- but it had been a while, and she did meet so many people.

"Hello, lover," she cooed. "Fancy meeting you here."

[identity profile] mouthy-merc.livejournal.com 2010-03-08 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
Wade straightened up his posture, looking around quickly for that voice. Nice legs, great body, fabulous rack... skeleton head.

That was... new.

"Hi," He replied slowly. "Have we met?"

Nikki still hadn't found this Cabot fellow. Her apartment was nice, though, so she wasn't in any rush.

She watched the speech and nodded. When it finished, she had a very important and relevant question for the speaker.

"Do you want a massage?"

[identity profile] famous-gut.livejournal.com 2010-03-07 08:17 pm (UTC)(link)
"Could it ever be as smooth and cool as the taste of a beer from the Rock Mountains?" he asked with a grin.
