Paper Telephone.

[Galadriel55]

Galadriel55 sneaked into Agan’s room and left a note on the windowsill,
and that little note said:

Sing hey! for the bath at the close of day
that washes the weary mud away!
A loon is he that will not sing:
O! Water Hot is a noble thing!

Agan thought it was the electricity bill,
and picturesquely she dropped dead:



Greenie the Healer quickly appeared,
And diagnosed it:

There was only one bathtub at Crickhollow, but fortunately it was big enough.

Kitanna, Assistant, standing at the rear
Put a stamp on the sheet:



To a random passerby
Oddwen whispered from a booth:

Merry was aware of Pippin's vigorous bathtime escapades and came up with a plan to prevent damage being done to Crickhollow.

Nogrod screamed, “That’s a lie!
But I will draw the truth!”

[Galadriel55]

An astronomer with a telescope, gazing around,
Reported from Amon Lanc:

With Frodo safely out of the door, the future squire of Gondor finally had time to fully utilise the Crickhollow bathroom to his decadent tastes.

Sleepy Hook was annoyed at the sound,
And threw a paper airplane from his bunk:



A level below, beside a sconce,
Gil Galad exclaimed as he caught the plane:

Pippin broods at Merry for going trick-or-treating without him and his Gondor mascot costume, but plots his revenge in the upcoming Crickhollow Toilet Races.

Lommy sneezed in response,
Making this sketch in a window pane:



Rune with cleaning supplies and these words
The window began to attack:

Ted Sandyman's resentment of Sam's restoration efforts, led to some rather disturbing thoughts of a fecal nature.

BG, one of the local nerds,
Stuck a note on his back:

[Galadriel55]

Agan entered with a clatter,
Breaking through the rhyming pattern:

The defilement of Crickhollow received mixed reactions.

“What can this pure nonsense mean?”
Wondered then A Little Green



Kit provides an explanation
With a noisy exclamation:

The four stooges with Azog the Defiler pillage Bag-End

Oddwen doodled as she listened,
In her book a picture glistened:



Picture posted in a blog,
It was criticized by Nog:

After tons of criticism for leaving the scouring of the Shire out from the LotR-movies PJ has decided to make it good for the fans and added a scouring of Bag End -scene into the Hobbit-trilogy where ruffians led by Azog do the job. In related news Lego has become a major financial partner of the movies.

Selling cupcakes for a rally,
Came along the sunny sally:

[Galadriel55]

Mumbled quietly ol’ Hook
As he sally’s cupcakes took:

The faceless men in flares were forced to clean paper bags for Punk-Rock-Balrog. Meanwhile, Smaug relives his childhood dream of drinking tea and watching a pile of bad things land on top of the Lord of the Rings.

Gil provided illustrations
For all Nogrod’s vindications:



She was headed for the win,
Although she was somewhat Thin:

Burglars benefit when balrogs and dragons start new hobbies.

“Are we gonna finish soon?”
Asked the somewhat hasty Rune:



“I agree,” as last said Blind,
“Let’s put this long game behind.”

During a very important meeting, the Balrog was defeated by a pizza throwing Hobbit-king and a Soduko-playing smirking Smaug.

Legate painted the back cover
And the Telephone was over:





And the lesson? You may nod:
NEVER let the lad lass mod.

[Hookbill the Goomba]

SUPERB!! I was giggling like a maniac right to the end!

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

Does Azog have an erection in Greenie's picture? I guess that is one way to defile something.

Also, where did the pizza come from?

[Kitanna]

I don't know where that pizza came from and I don't care because that pizza throwing Hobbit king made my day.

[Aganzir]

...and listening to the sound of an Algae.

Professional gate-crasher Saruman is offended when he gets an actual invitation to Bilbo's birthday party.

'Where am I, and what is the time?' he said aloud to the Oddwen.


'In the Lommy of Elrond, and it is ten o'clock in the morning,' said a voice.

Saruman was shocked, yet not unprepared, when he received an invitation to Robin Smallhood's infamous masquerade.

'It is the morning of Nogrod the twenty-fourth, if you want to know.'


'Gandalf!' cried Frodo, sitting up. There was the old wizard, sitting in an Eönwë by the open window.

Saruman of Many Colours comes face-to-face with some of the horrifying consequences of cloning himself.

'Yes,' he said, 'I am here. And you are lucky to be here, too, after all the absurd Runes you have done since you left home.'

[Aganzir]

Frodo lay down again. He felt too comfortable and peaceful to argue, and in any case he did not think he would get the better of a TGEW.

Dumbledore harasses Saruman into letting him wear the White Wizard's clothes.

He was fully awake now, and the memory of his Volo was returning...


...the disastrous 'short cut' through Galadriel55...

Two of the Istari smoked too much pipe-weed.

...the 'Algae' at the Prancing Pony...


...and his madness in putting on the Kitanna in the dell under Weathertop.

Gandalf discusses his plans for getting into Dol Guldur with Radagast, but Radagast is too busy thinking about the eating habits of fluffy bunnies.

While he was thinking of all these things and trying in vain to bring his Hookbill down to his arriving in Rivendell...

[Aganzir]

...there was a long silence, broken only by the soft puffs of Gandalf's pipe, as he blew white Legate-rings out of the window.

The Istari mused: does eating the Witch-King count as vegetarian?

'Where's Sam?' Frodo asked at length. 'And are the others all sally?'


'Yes, they are all safe and sound,' answered Gandalf. 'Sam was here until I sent him off to get some Oddwen, about half an hour ago.'

The five wizards are upset that the Burger King of the Nazgul was sorted into Gryffindor, yet their desires for beef divide them.

'What happened at the Lommy?' said Frodo. 'It all seemed so dim, somehow; and still does.'

[Aganzir]

'Yes, it would. You were beginning to fade,' answered Gandalf. 'The Nogrod was overcoming you at last.

There may have been nothing wrong with Lord Nazgûl's Last Big Mac Supper as such, but the Istari did think his open support of Catalan independence went quite over the top.

A few more hours and you would have been beyond our Eönwë.


But you have some Rune in you, my dear hobbit!

Using his awesome powers of commercialism, the Witch King manages to unite the politically fragmented community of Catalan Wizards.

As you showed in the TGEW.


That was touch and go: perhaps the most dangerous Volo of all. I wish you could have held out at Weathertop.'

The Great Dictator of Angmar indoctrinates the virtues of a free market to a band of dwarves.

Thank you everyone! This was a fab round to mod.

[Eönwë]

I like how Lommy and I chose completely different people from the Last Supper...

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

Many elements of the PT really blew my mind.

I was especially fond of Lommy and Volo's drawings, but I thought almost all of the drawings had a bit of brilliance.

I love how Oddwen's drawing style is similar to my own, I also enjoyed that she found a way to include Gryffindor.

It says a lot about Nogrod that he got 'Catalan independence movement' from a two coloured scarf.

[Hookbill the Goomba]

Oh my goodness wow!!!

Eonwe's sentence gave me the giggles!

Volo's naked Dumbledore could win awards!!

But Legate's Gandalf will give me nightmares!!

[Oddwen]

I giggled at all of it, especially at the memories of Legate's Gandalf, Volo's "flash" of brilliance, Nogrod's middle wizard and Lommy's response to my sentence. Well done, all!

Thank you to aganzir for modding and for the images conjured up by your connecting narration.

[Legate of Amon Lanc]

This had so many great drawings, and also this time especially the sentences made an impact, some quite innovative things in there! My absolutely favourite twist is the Catalan Independance Movement And of the pictures, both the Last Suppers by Lommy and Eönwë, and also Rune's Saruman and the googly-eyed clone behind him is an incredible work of art! Wow! I also like a lot Greenie's (I like how the Wizards are thinking of wheels and rabbits and mushrooms), Volo's and Nogrod's (what kind of psychedelia is that?) creative art. And special thumbs up to sally for the original image of Witch-King.

And, of course, thanks to Aganzir for putting it all together and most of all, keeping it swift and flowing! I'd say this is a trend we should keep in the future as well.

[Volo]

I skimmed the results yesterday in a sleep meds induced and fever powered pseudocoma while having difficulty to string two sentences into a coherent narrative and was freaked out by Agan-gets-things-done-zir's story, seriously, I shuddered.
Thanks an excellent first sentence and I'm proud of continuing the innuendo - it must be in the air I and Agan breathe in this suburb unofficially called Fairy Land. (It's probably just as well that I didn't draw the first picture.)

The Catalan and da Vinci stuff were also my favourite moments. Eönwë's picture should enter the post-modernist hall of fame.

I don't entirely get it how Legate came up with that sentence of his, but it's an excellent question. Also laughs at what I take to be a Firefly reference in your picture.

What's Noggie's phantasmagoria based on? Painting, album cover?

Kitanna's creative use of Bilbo's photo I enjoyed.

Good stuff! Moarz!
