If life were fair, none of the following would ever happen.
But this is Milliways.
And so, really, it makes sense that when someone went to bed last night, a small, hand written brochure fell out of her bag behind her.
And it makes sense that a wait rat discovered the brochure. And photocopied it–those rats have access to so many things–and has just now placed several copies on each table.
And on the Bar.
And one under each door of each room upstairs.
But it’s just a brochure.
One that happens to be titled the following:
Milliways Patrons: Birth Control Is Your Friend!
One brochure that is addressed to both the men and women of Milliways. And contains suggestions of various forms of birth control. And various sorts of ways of attaining sexual satisfaction that do not lead to breeding. And involve lovely things like mouths and hands.
One brochure that was likely never meant to see the light of day, and probably written by a young mutant woman as a joke.
And is now on every table of the bar.
And the counter of the Bar.
And in every room upstairs.
If life were fair, none of this would have happened.
...
Fucking Milliways, man.
(Oh. And at the bottom of the brochure is the following:P.S. Stop getting married, dammit! Half of you are going to be divorced by the time you’re 30.)
There’s no way to tell who produced this brochure.
Whoever did write it is probably grateful for that fact.
[ooc: PLEASE feel free to have your pup(s) find a brochure and react to it, here or anywhere else.]
