Aspen Toyman*

A Story by Abishai100

A shrewd Aspen snowboarder (Satan) markets 'special' toys to trekkers/youngsters in the hills/mountains/resorts and challenges a devil.

A small-tale about toy-imaginarium IQ inspired by Toys (Robin Williams). Hope you like it,

Amlan Satan is the Aspen toyman, selling toy jewelry and robot toys to the tourists/travelers who trek to the snowy hills/alps to do some wrought skiing/snowboarding during the vacation experience.

He sells toys to all kinds of people, and many of them are kids and many of them are young adults who, like kids, enjoy the frills of snowy-hill jumping and friendship developments. The toys reflect the travelers' sense of snowy fun and the joy of life.

TOYMAN: Mostly, I collect fun toy gems from around the world, and these items of great 'pizzazz' capture an IQ-dream!

TOYMAN: So, you wish to critique my 'business' with nihilism, evil baron?
DR. NO: No one knows I'm evil...not even you, Toyman!
TOYMAN: Well, you have the 'demeanor' of a man in 'deep-thought' about vanity.
DR. NO: Vanity?
TOYMAN: What's the big 'challenge' to toy-distribution to snow-trekkers, evil baron?
DR. NO: Well, I'm not sure I want to 'indulge' in child-like behaviors in this world of darkness!
TOYMAN: That's perfectly fine; I'll make deal; you let me market the toys; I'll tell people you're a sponsor.
DR. NO: And?

TOYMAN: Everyone will say, "That 'evil baron' does ironically love the 'idea' of toys for tots."
DR. NO: I suppose, yes, that would be 'excellent' for my society prestige; alright.

TOYMAN: By evading the 'claw' of the diabolical Dr. No, I've affirmed my rights into the world of Aspen snow-dance!

Amlan Satan ('Toyman') spent many years in those snowy hills of Aspen marketing toys and frivolity items of great entertainment-value and stickers of music and music instruments/recorders and all the while remembering his 'gratitude' for his new underground Colorado 'sponsor' --- the empire-building Dr. No.

TOYMAN: I wonder if I may use the imagery of women-in-war/terror to market 'intrigue' in comics and war-toys (for girls!).

Amlan Satan ('Toyman') now added a new 'quill' to his merchant-surfer resume. He'd loved snowboarding and culinary arts and toy marketing, but he was now invested in the special form(s) of war-toys rhetorics and ideology education to his avid fans/consumers and to kids in Aspen (North America).
