I'm totally going to buy bananas before I meet Hookie in a couple of weeks.

Yes we are. There was a delay for a while that was completely my fault, but we're going again now.

We're a little sticky but we're not stuck. Like if you get chocolate on your fingers and try to lick it off, but there's always that little bit between your fingers you can't quite lick clean, and you're not near a sink so you can't wash your hands so your fingers stick together a little bit, but they still taste like chocolate so you still keep licking them, so they stay nice and damp and sticky and sweet, and you don't really mind even if you're licking sand or hair because hey...it's still tasty. That's where we are right now. All of us.

Funny thing. If you poke a dead thing hard enough and often enough, it moves!

That didn't prevent you from not making delicious stew.

We're about three quarters through!
Hopefully Legate won't take too long with his sentence after he finishes......whatever he's doing.

We should use this picture as a basis for the next PT!
There's probably a cake in front of Legate - a really tasty-looking one. And he wants to eat it very much.

I'm sorry I've been a little slow with my turn, but I'll get it done tomorrow (my kind of day off) so it'll be less than a week anyway... But we're very close to the end, which is cool.
ps. Oddwen that picture is... disturbing. (I like the one with Hookbill and the Wereduckling a lot better! )

Yes, it took me 1,5 weeks to do my picture, although in the end the drawing and photographing took at most 20 minutes together. I'm sorry I suck. Anyway, there's only one more picture and one more picture to go, so even by pessimistic estimate we should be done in two weeks...? Yay!

I was on holiday in England when I had to write...(so it took me a bit longer than what I had hoped)
When there are this many playing, I guess we just have to accept that people will get delayed. Perhaps with smaller numbers one can enforce a certain amount of discipline. . . |

Once upon a time, a ridiculous pixie named Aganzir was reading The Silmarillion. Somewhere near the passage that goes
Quote:
Suddenly, a wild Sally appeared! Quoth the Sally: Quote:
A travelling Beregond, who was at that moment tapping, gently rapping at the chamber door, found that he had scratched this picture into the fresh green paint. Upon seeing the image in the round green door, Galadriel55 was unable to keep herself from bursting in and screaming Quote:
The bust of TheGreatElvenWarrior on its stand wept tears of ink, leaving a stain on the floor that greatly resembled this: Pitchwife saw the omen, and lifted up his voice and wailed Quote:

Legate, who had just stepped out of the elevator, was so surprised he spilled pancake batter all over himself. At least it gave the laundryboys something to do. Why he had pancake batter at all was a mystery, but doubtless it had something to do with the shape of one of the pancakes made from the salvaged batter:
Hookbill the Goomba, head of the "Every Day Is Pancake Day" club, promptly changed the manifesto of the club to: Quote:
The penguin known as Thinlomien witnessed the whole thing. Realizing she was sitting on a gold mine, she grabbed her newspaper, cut out words and mailed this blackmail note. Quote:
Eonwe saw her drop the blackmail note, and in his report to the police he drew this incriminating portrait: On this evidence, the police arrested Blind Guardian. They were forced to let her go after she revealed her airtight alibi of: Quote:

If only they had asked her whereabouts on the preceding Thursday. Then they would have found that her ever loveable partner in crime Gil-Galad was painting a certain image all over the city.
While shopping for green paint to repaing her door, Aganzir happened to see the nasty graffiti on the wall of the paint shop. The Newspaper interview was published that same evening, and misquoted her as saying: Quote:
Beregond was immediately fired, even though he insisted he had never worked there in the first place. He protested Quote:
He didn't, however. So it was up to Professional Dumpster Diver TheGreatElvenWarrior to figure it out. Upon realizing the threat to humanity, she was heard to shriek Quote:

Amateur Dumpster Diver Pitchwife was jealous of her discovery, and cleverly switched her picture with one he drew hastily on the back of a menu from Chateau d'Mordor:
Legate mistook the image for a legitimate menu, and attempted to order it at the restaurant. Quote:
Nearby diner Hookbill the Goomba couldn't help overhear, and doodled this image on the tablecloth with his crayons. Rune had been banned from the fine restaurant long ago for crimes against fashion, but from his vantage point at the window where he stood every afternoon from 2:16 until 4:01, he could see the picture Hooky was drawing. He was heard by everyone to mutter Quote:
Eonwe immediately stole the map. He followed it for miles, ignoring the feeling that someone was following him. Years later, his body was found deep in the amazon jungle, and this was the last entry in his journal: Quote:

Famed artist Blind Guardian drew this touching picture of the morbid scene, which became the most iconic image of the 28th century:
It was a triumph of epic proportions, and the robot known as Gil-Galad could finally feel love. His first words to his beloved were: Quote:
The End......?

And Beregond's picture goes with it perfectly! I love the Witch-King's distracted expression! Pitchwife seriously! Sisterhood? I bet the band would approve if they knew of their cult following among us moldering wights. Legate, who's that phantom guy? I'm chuckling at Rune's picture and Lommy's interpretation of it. And Eönwė! Hahaha that's fantastic! Quote:
Pitch, that's cruel treatment of beautiful animals! Lommy, your picture is horrible! No, I didn't expect Spongebob Squarepants. He cracked me up. He looks wicked! Yeah, what can I say? This was a fantastic round. Thank you Horacewen, and everyone who participated!

O. M. G. Woooohooooooooooooooooo!
This is the funniest thing I've seen in a week! Agan and Beregond, your pictures are amazing. Sally: I echo Agan. That sentence was hilarious. Hooky: No wonder Rune wanted to beat you with a banana. TGEW: I never thought that the line separating the lions from the rest would be interpreted as division! But I guess it's more fun this way. Pitchie: Legate: just the time to bring in some Lannisters. I approve. ^^ Lommy: Sponge Bob?! Eonwe: Mushrooms?! Great one, everybody!

It's going to take me a while to digest all of this through my eyes.
Favourites on first reading; Aganzir's drawing was AMAZING!! Sally's sentence also cracked me up. Thinlomien's picture floored me!! Eonwe's fell beast was pretty awe inspiring! Pitchwife is a genius, as well.

I absolutely loved Sally's interpretation of Aganzir's picture. While the picture was very nicely done (like always), it was also very weird...unintentionally I presume.
I really loved Bergond's drawing, quite distinctive style and such. Gil-Galad's interpretation of the whole "pride" thing made me chuckle, love that stuff. Lastly I was really happy to see Spongebob make an appearance. |

Assuming that's what you found weird about it, of course, because if it was something else, then it was so unintential I don't see it even now. Next round: Aganzir Rikae

So I'm not willing to miss a round of this another time... and you're all crazy. Like I think we all are, some more, some less (where more is the better). The "divided lions" turning into Sponge-Bob via the Lannisters was just... well, as weird the PT can produce.
