Sue’s photo prompt this week…
And my take…
“Now dat,” Dermot said, indicating to the streak of rainbow, suspended in front of them “Dat is de work of a master.”
“A master what?” Paddy asked “A master of stupidity?”
The Local Leprachaun Society had been meeting here at this pub for many years, whenever one of them had created a new rainbow. Every nuance of the phenomenon was discussed, minute details picked apart.
Dermot sighed. “He’ll be here soon enough.”
Sure enough, the door swung open and Seamus sauntered in. He sat down and was promptly thwacked around the head by Paddy.
“What was dat fer?” he scowled, rubbing the back of his balding pate.
“Feast yer eyes on dat beauty, and you’ll see fer yerself!” Paddy pointed to the rainbow.
Seamus trained his eye on the colours, and realisation dawned on him.
“De curve, man! Where’s de curve?” Paddy was in full flow “Ye know de rainbow needs an arc! It helps us hide de crock of gold from de hunters! Optical illusions, dat’s what we are about, and you go and create de world’s first feckin’ vertical one! Might as well place a flashin’ sign above it, saying “Nick Me!” ya eejat!”
And another thwack was felt on the back of his head…
my frilly freudian slip

I think you and I saw the same sign pointing to gold in this photo. Good writing. I especially like the voice.
