Durelin, being old and crotchety, was annoyed by all this singing and wanted the neighbourhood to return to sanity. The best way seemed to be turning all the gardens into pictures that looked like this…

Tree lover and local crazy person, TheGreatElvenWarrior, returned from battle at just the time when this statement was being splashed across the news. She was so upset that she called upon all the ents to gather together and trample the city into this shape…

Cleaner in chief, Greenie, refused to mop this mess up. Instead, she went to her room and painted the carpet to look like this…

Prison guard, Blind Guardian, was amused by all of this shouting and decided to share her feelings with the world. So, she went to the high court and painted this in a judge’s backside…

Nogrod was the court artist. He drew many things. When he heard Laurinque say this stuff he chopped his own nose off and made it explode, creating this picture on the table…

Diamond was selling coal on the blue market when she heard this craziness. Her best response was to strangle Pitch and then cut off all his hair. She arranged the clippings into this pattern…

Rune was in that audience and was not pleased with what he heard. Indeed, he was so offended that he took hold of the nearest child and chiselled this image into their face…

Sea captain wilwarin538 took the message, read it and then laughed until the whole ship sank. The pattern it left in the water looked strangely like this…

It fell to Mnemosyne to sort the resultant rioting out. When it was all done, all that was left was her crippled remains on the floor of the council chamber. It looked like this…

Thumbs up

Beregond was a member of BI-5, the international espionage agency based in the Barrow Downs, and when he heard this report, he fired all of his staff and sent this picture to all new media simultaneously…

Said person was Galadriel55. She was more than a little annoyed by this disruption to her sleeping cycle, as she liked to ride her bike while asleep. Waking up, she crashed into a wall and left this pattern…

The shock of the message brought everyone to their knees. Then, as the silence returned, the people rose and blinked in the new light. Another Paper Telephone had ended.

Anyone up for another round?

YAYYYY!



I am willing to mod the next round, unless someone else is just dying to do it.

In which case, go die and then I can mod, you silly.

Bahahaha!

Oddie, Lauri, Begerond - I love your pictures.

Di, Mnemo, ed, Pitch, Eönwë - I love your sentences.

Sally, I really like your use of the phantom.

And I should probably tell you that I couldn't be irritated with Lommy anymore (because of a household chore argument) after seeing her picture.

I wants moar Paper Telephone.
