The Best of the Beanies, in no particular order - they were all so good!
First Dead by @annafenix
Ah! And coffee consumption must be reduced by 75%. Just a cup of coffee a day to see how you do, and in a month, you have to repeat the tests.
At the mention of the coffee restriction measures, Thomas jumped as if he had a spring in his seat. He refuted the doctor:
— What? No, doctor, that's impossible! I can't go through the day with so little coffee, I die without it.
A new era by @irvinc
The radiation also affected the crops, including coffee. Now each bush barely produced a few beans a year, so it was no longer a product of mass consumption. Hardly anyone could enjoy a cup of coffee...
With the scarcity of beans, drinking coffee became a source of conflict, there was simply not enough for everyone...
The collectors. by @jetta.amaya
This is garbage, I can't believe we're coffee thieves now. You raised me inside this business when money was money and coffee was just a breakfast drink. But now, we have to go around picking coffee, we're not even thieves anymore, we look like fucking farmers.
Arthur of Willowbrook by @diikaan
He might have been ageing, but his passion for coffee kept him spirited and lively. He could often be seen at the local coffee shop, engaging in animated conversations with the baristas about the nuances of flavours and the artistry of the perfect brew. His tales of exotic coffee origins and historical anecdotes enchanted both the young and the old.
When coffee became currency by @actioncats
from PxHere
It all started when the coffee companies announced that the coffee plants had contracted a strange plague, thanks to the mutations that had been made in some insects in agricultural laboratories and that resulted in unstable insects and fatal mixtures
A Death-by-Coffee Story by @marlyncabrera
Gosh, this coffee tastes awful!
Suddenly the house feels overwhelmingly lonely and cold. I can feel my bowels turning into a knot. Kiki would now come and rub her furry body against my legs to make me feel better, but she might be gone for good by now, and I don’t think I can take it.
The Fatal Brew by @ladytitan
"Ah, yes. Come in." I opened the door wider to let her in. Of course, she had to taunt me with her enviable catwalk.
"Coffee?" I offered.
She sat on the two-seater couch that Keith and I loved to relax and cuddle on. I lost it at that point.
The last coffee money in the world by @chacald.dcymt
My father had a lot of power and the most important point of that meeting was to determine a new currency that would save the world economy. My family invested everything in "Coffee Money" a project that determined that paper money would be printed with coffee and would govern the entire method of payment on the planet.
A coffee, please! by @aurodivys
She opened the two doors as if looking for light in the darkness. The coffee was not in sight as we used to leave it. She reached in, feeling around to find the coffee container. He pulled his hand out, leaned a little to get a better look at the other containers we have there and asked, loudly, almost shouting NO COFFEE?
A world where coffee was more valuable than gold by @germanandradeg
But as in every story, there is always someone who seeks to take advantage of the system. In this case, a small group of unscrupulous traders discovered a way to counterfeit coffee beans and sell them at high prices. The counterfeit was so perfect that even the experts could not distinguish them from the authentic beans.
Well, that's it for the Best of the Beanies for last week's prompt.
