I woke up in the middle of the night with this idea burning my head:

"Smaug got tired of living under the mountain and decided to build himself a new house on top of the mountain. Beorn is giving advice."


Aganzir couldn't find her pencils so she used paint instead:




dancing spawn of ungoliant found a minute in between filling different forms and wrote this:

"Having a bureaucratic bear interfering with your attempts to remodel your penthouse condo made the glowing Worm wish he hadn't moved in the neighbourhood in the first place."


Orominuialwen quickly skipped through 38942 pictures and made a collage out of the best ones:




Thinlómien visited Sofocle for help and recieved great advice, this is how she improved the wise words:

"Chinese Smaug was not happy when an official-looking female Beorn came to visit him with outrageous requests."


Hookbill the Goomba had just finished another article about the Argonath when he was ordered to draw this:




Gil-Galad opened his history book and found the courage to bring out the truth:

"The Dragon did not like Threats, in fact he hated them for it brought back painful memories of his childhood when all the other kid-dragons on his street would tease him about being a dragon with a funny hat that anyone could control him, but someday he will prove himself that dragons can be stylin' in hats too..."


Precioussss sat in deep thought and in the end concluded like this:




The Elf-warrior who had run out of tee, visited Menel to borrow some and in his way of saying thanks, wrote this:

"Meneltarmacil thought of the humiliation that would come to him if he accepted the Hobbits' funny hat."


Lord Melkor, after having travelled to the other side of the Galaxy to see what colour Gandalf the Grey's hat was, decided that it looked like this:




Legate of Amon Lanc saw that this was a serious matter and grave seriously stated these words right here:

"Poor Meneltarmacil does not have the heart to decline Frodo's gift of a "funny" hat with roses on antennaes, pictures of smileys and inbuilt blue ice-cream cone; though he knows that putting it on will surely mean being exposed to the mockery of the whole Fellowship..."


The Might giggled at Legate's words and posted this picture:




Oddwen sighed and went off to put on the coffee machine, half way there she though about the matters at hand and knew that the realy truth was this:

"Bilbo gives away hats on his birthday, but Meneltarmacil(tm) is ungrateful."



Beregond looked at the dictionary and wondered what could "Meneltarmacil" mean. Then he looked in the window and gasped. The thing he saw was this:




The 1,000 Reader saw that it wouldn't be easy, but with some political accuracy managed to finish the game with this phrase:

"No hobbit would forget the dragon that showed up during Flatfoot Proudfoot's birthday in 2019."


Thank you all and do come again!

Indeed it was.

Whoever mods the next round, I would like to draw again if possible. Maybe I can even find my pencils by then.

Thumbs up

Ha, wonderful! I must say, I like very much Hookbill's interpretation of "outrageous requests". Though, something like this could have been expected...
