To be fair, Echo Bravo might have been thinking on terms of the Kevin and Kell axiom that only novice carnivores let themselves get lured into talking to their prey… >_.>
Speaking of a character wanting a beer, I wrote this: http://www.panix.com/~daphne/tunes/Thimblefuls_of_Beer.pdf “Thimblefuls of Beer”, a reel (no lyrics yet, sorry) for the 2020-11-14 strip. There’s also an MP3 (generated from MIDI, not me playing it) in that same ‘tunes’ directory (just remove everything after the final ‘/’ in the URL) for folks who want to hear it, not just read it. I’m still working on guitar chords for it.
Twice through is about a minute and a half. I can loop it as many times as you need. (I can also substitute different General MIDI instruments, if desired.) I added MIDI files at http://www.panix.com/~daphne/tunes/ but I’ll replace those MIDI files with more suitable ones as needed.
Aren’t beer halls where putsches are spawned and encouraged? The combination of fingers and fangs could cause all sorts of trouble for the A-Sig powers that be.
A serpient slithers into a bar, and says, “I’ll have an orange-peel beer with a rat chaser.” The bartender says, “We don’t serve rats in here.” So the snake says, “Then how do you explain all your customers?”
Looks like one of the roborat pilots owes me money. Anyone notice the pun that the snake made?
Serpient. Nice.
That bar is filling fast. When does the karaoke start?
Just shows you good beer and good service attract customers.

Check this serpient again. It sounds like he swallowed Unity.
I kinda doubt Unity would let her throat be stroked without a *serious* embrace in return.
Maybe the snake is one of Dr. Lee’s earlier experiments in the field. It is, er, two-tone.
…I wouldn’t mind going to a bar and having a beer, too.
Wait, then why didn’t Artie just try yelling at them in the first place?
Hard to strike up a conversation with someone who has their mouth full and is currently swallowing~
…hangry…brah…hecka, what is the culture? Sidewalk surf snake?
He’s a Cobro.
Heh. Good one. 😀
Well played, Lafing Cat.
Sorry, that didn’t post, meant to say excellent wordplay.
I think I’d have been very surprised if it wasn’t a sapient snake.
Artie is such a take-charge kind of guy! A natural-born leader…
“Subtlest of all the beasts” my foot!
I think it’s spelt ‘subtil’ in this instance.
oooh, I like that word.

Enjoyed the tune quite a bit. Wouldn’t mind hearing it on actual instruments.
Once I’ve decided for sure about the chords, I’ll talk one of my bandmates into recording it on fiddle and add chords on guitar. 🙂
This is so cool! May we run this on a Sunday?
YES! I would be honoured.
Thank you so much!
Post the midi and I can play it in Lord of the Rings Online and maybe make a video of it, probably need to loop it two or three times.

“A serpient slithers into a bar…”

And the rat in the hat said, “everyone attack” and it turned into a beer hall putsch, beer hall putsch.
A serpient slithers into a bar, and says, “I’ll have an orange-peel beer with a rat chaser.” The bartender says, “We don’t serve rats in here.” So the snake says, “Then how do you explain all your customers?”
Bartender says “I thought you were a rat chaser.”
Methinks friend serpient is finding the local environs so tension-filled that a hasty retreat is called for…
Well, he’s just “retreating” to the bar for a drink. At least he’ll be more relaxed, although the other patrons at the bar might not be.
Alcohol is the great leveler, many problems are either resolved or started over a drink or three.
