Round Five: Vices - Prompts

[escargoat]

In the spirit of wanting to lower my chances of getting lynched  niceness, I put together the prompt list today.

While they were not due until Saturday, I figured that having a couple more days of possible procrastination/writing time never hurt anybody.

Your prompts are under the cut below. Remember that your prompts can be used in anyway that you

Your drink - Harvey Wallbanger

::goes off to google aqua velva::

[mab_browne]

Aha. This explains why I *thought* that stuff was an aftershave. ::glares at mod:::

[escargoat]

Lol - Yeah, I figured that might happen :)

But, but you ended up getting the "canon" drug, so...

Plus, I mean a blue drink!

(Okay, so maybe I'm not selling it so well :D)

[maaaaa]

For a blue drink how about - AMF (Adios Mother Fucker)?
1/2 oz Vodka
1/2 oz Rum
1/2 oz Tequila
1/2 oz Gin
1/2 oz Blue Curacao
2 oz Sweet & Sour mix
2 oz 7-Up

The only Aqua Velva I know of is the aftershave, and I suppose one could drink it, and mab could totally pull it off, but it would be nasty. *g*

[mab_browne]

I clicked more linkies and apparently there is also a cocktail called aqua velva featuring vodka, blue curacao and crushed mint. And now I have the beginnings of a plot bunny for this. Yay. *g*

[escargoat]

OMG, I didn't realize earlier that the drink didn't also show up in your search along with the aftershave.

It showed up right under the cologne in my google search. Oy vey. Sorry about that.

[mab_browne]

My google-fu sucks - but I got there in the end. But my first click was a the wiki link where it said that desperate soldiers in WWII reputedly drank their aftershave for an alcohol hit. *g*

[escargoat]

EWWWW. *Shudders* No wonder you were glaring at me :)

[escargoat]

Lol, no I wouldn't be so mean as to give out a prompt that wasn't an actual drink :)

Aqua Velva is actually made with vodka, Blue Curacao and mint.

ETA - and I just glanced down and saw that Mab totally already told you that - so ignore me.

I thought maybe she meant aqua vitae (which would be wildly appropriate given your interest in AUs), but I see there actually is a drink called Aqua Velva. :-)

[escargoat]

Hehe.

While I'm not mean enough to assign a drink that isn't really a drink, I'm also not nice enought to give a prompt that was actually appropriate to a writer.

I can't have rumors of competency or generosity floating about :D

[mab_browne]

LOL! Ah, NOW we see how this comm's gonna roll... *g*

[snycock]

Argh, that was me... I should have guessed when I saw the reCAPTCHA.

[escargoat]

It's part of my evil scheme. I make you think I'm this nice, quiet fan THEN I unleash my nefarious plots upon unsuspecting fic writers.

[mab_browne]

Yup, which I found eventually. *g*
