Chapter 25 - Right About Then!
One of those marmots, Musthug (to be precise), was pushing back The Littlest HugaBird's cuticles with a ProNails Cuticle Pusher (Or the ProNails Manicure Stick Wood, the Cuticles Cobalt Cuticle Pusher or the ProNails Cuticle Cleaner! - V.) when it happened.
What exactly “it” was, depended on your point of view. From the point of view of “Musthug the Marmot” (I know her! - V.), what happened was:
They had staked out a nice little space for themselves on Marmot Beach, not too far from the stage where their favorite band, Velveteen And The Safety Snaps, were banging out the opening chords of American musician Maggie Rogers’ alternative/indie song “Light On.”
At Motfest 2019, the annual surfside music festival the Marmots put on at The Bungalows, a Cabana For Sixteen Marmots cost $30,000, including:
Free Beer, specifically, MeadowBank Brewing “Nice Marmot” (of course)
VELVETEEN
An Imperial Dunkelweizen Beer (Whatever that is! Ha! - V.) with a powerful Banana aroma, followed by malty breadiness and hints of biscuit and toffee flavors!
SARAN
A powerful malt bomb with surreal hefeweizen yeast piquancy!
VELVETEEN
Yeah, Ok, Sar!
SARAN
OMG, what now?
VELVETEEN
“Surreal hefeweizen yeast piquancy?” What does that even mean?
SARAN
I don't know, Vel, it's just what we're supposed to say!
VELVETEEN
I don't even know how to pronounce half these words!
SARAN (Glares at VELVETEEN)
Moving along! . . . “Which pours a silky dark amber color with an off-white head!”
(VELVETEEN is about to crack a joke, but SARAN shoots her another dirty look).
Vel, don't you even --
VELVETEEN
“© 2014 Meadowlark Brewing, Inc., 117 S. Central Ave., Sidney, Montana, (406) 433-2337!” What, Saran, what? You were going to say something?
SARAN
No, No, everything’s fine!
VELVETEEN
Exactly! Plus, this Beer is way too dark for me! I don't like something I have to fight my way through! Can I not just get a normal Beer?
SARAN
Sure, how about a Bud?
VELVETEEN
Oh, come on! I think we can do a little better than that, can't we, Saran?
