Ranger Danger!
When I think of beauty I think of 3 things.
1. Ron working the room with a bottle of scotch in his hand
2. A Bottle of scotch working the room with me in its hand
3. Dr Kildare cleaning one of my glorious flesh wounds with a bottle of scotch.
And until yesterday that was enough for me, that was before I saw the Malton Rangers in action.
I entered the Showers NT in Scarletwood and there they were, good men, strong men. Men like us, only not quite so well groomed. I said hello, we'd met before, and settled down. It had been a long day and I was exhausted. All I wanted was a little down time and some quiet company.
What I got was a door and two windows crashing inward and a gaggle of the dead pouring into the room. I groaned, they groaned, and started to rise. A steady hand landed on my shoulder and the steely voice of Jleggit said 'We got this'.
Good god they were flawless, the embodiment of 'Do Easy'. I thought at first that I was watching this on the screen, something didn't quite make sense. Then I realised - these bastards were fighting in slow motion!.
At Channel 4 we brawl, and we sing, and we dance and we drink and give thanks to Odin for our knuckles and our knees. Whatever god these Rangers pray too has imbued them with unearthly skills, almost too beautiful to be considered violence. But violence it was, and in all too short a time the zombies were dispatched and the building was secure. After it was over Magatsu looked at me and said 'Did you get that?'. To my shame the camera still had its lens cap on. Wulfgar just smiled and told me there would be other times.
