Part Two

The Elf warrior fought long and hard along the long and hard road. We’re not sure why…



No one would have believed that The Might had any sense of direction. But that is unimportant.

Jabba the Hut, a Sarlacc (the worm on Tatooine) and an imperial AT_ST walker (the walkers on Endor) have stolen pigs and are taking them to McSauron's to be transformed into burger meat.

A Little Green did a little picture… Sorry, that was just awful… I’ll think of something better to say next time.



Oddwen Fell apart. Then got back together. Then fell apart again. Then wrote this. Then got back together again.

Vile creatures from Star Wars descend upon McSauron's domain with stolen pigs and intent to maintain McSauron's reputation for mystery meat

It is very likely that Nogrod will be arrested for this:



Finduilas never imagined such a scene. So it was understandably difficult to describe…

Sauron insists that his Restaurant is cool, as it features entertainment by Jabba the Hut, Darth Vadar, and other Star wars hero's who's morals agree with Saurons, and as it serves wonderful food such as Mystery Pig Macs, for such affordable prices as $3.95

Part Three

Legate was full of beans and soup. We soon had his stomach pumped though…



Aganzir took the law into his own hands… then dropped it…

Sauron watches the cool Star Wars band play while waiting for his supper in a psychedelic coffeeroom: microwave heated chicken à la Palpatine and stewed Macalaure & pork by Darth Vader. Unfortunately, his dinner companion Saruman is still outside, flirting with an elder gentleman.

Volo some how interpreted that madness as this:



What madness had taken over lommy? We’re not sure. We think it was Dragon related.

"Gandalf the Chat-Wizard didn't enjoy Sauron's disco, especially as the band was formed by several Star Wars heroes and the host himself was laying on a bed made of boxing gloves and talking about Macalaure-bread baked by Darth Vader."

The Might was feeling the heat! No one knows why…



With the pressure building on The Elf Warrior, there was only one thing left to do…

At the Star Lords concert, Rikae was frightened by Darth Vader's magic, Sauron admired Darth Vader's Macalaure bread, while Gandalf was disappointed there were no elf chicks.

Thumbs up The Final Part

Oddwen was feeling romantic… But we soon put a stop to that…



A Little Green finally got the chance for me to think of a better joke! So… A Little Green felt a little better and wrote a little sentence- Oh blast I did it again!

The Witch-King approves Darth Vader's tossing of a fainted German worm whilst a band of four stars called "Star Lords" is playing on a stage. Above them, on balconies, are a frustrated Gandalf thinking about a woman, a woman terrified by Vader and the Witch-King, and two hobbits with lots of buttered popcorns.

The problem for Finduilas was not so much fear, as lack of knowledge about what on earth was supposed to be going on… Seriously…



Nogrod was attacked by vicious dogs and apples. Yes.

Murder in a Star Lords gig! Lead singer Darth Vader throws a venomous snake into the audience aiming at lady Arwen who is terrified. Pip and Sam do not notice the obvious as they enjoy The Witch-king's smooth and elastic hip-movement on stage. The irrevocability of Arwen's death throws Gandalf to concentrate on the melancholic idea what kind of Granny Arwen would have been if she would have lived longer.

Nimrodel_9 finished off this fine Telephone call with some confusing artwork…



If that wasn’t the most ridiculous thing ever, then what is? Probably what will be in the next Paper Telephone. Take it away, Lommy!

Ha! I only think the several redundances were kinda unfortunate. It could have kept less consistent. But anyway, it was fun Good move with bringing in the SW element, Miggy...
I especially like LG's picture as whole. Oddwen's Rikae is hilarious and I like the whole episode with the snake. "Fainted German worm!"

And Volo's pic is really psychedelic

And look at Nogrod's Vader's expression...

Anyway, you can already sign me up for the next, unless there are other people who haven't played lately and want it badly... are you going to do a single or a double one, Lommy?

One more thing. Could it be possible to have larger version of the Elf Warrior's picture? Or at least know what P.Hantom is saying, for it's impossible to read...

And I just can't stop laughing at seeing Lommy's portrayal of Detective Phantom and Nimmy's Vader (that helmet!).

The picture is a little large, which is why I re-sized it and the Downs won't let me upload it. But P.Hantom is saying "I think the sack is just a coincidence. What about you?" A.Lien is saying "What could possibly be suspicious?" G. Mithrandir is saying, "Mc Sauron's Hamburger bar is dead ahead"

I personally enjoyed Aganzir’s picture (a really good Phantom and Alien there ) and Finduilas' witch-King giving Darth Vader a thumbs up.

*hopelessly chuckling* (Really laughed only at Noggie's picture, though.)

Well, this was... interesting.

Hookbill, did you have any certain idea what you were drawing, or was it just intended to be as weird as possible?

(By the way, I'm rather hoping to see Lommy's Phantom & Alien in the newspaper some day. )

Legate, what's that Saruman(?) really doing there? I assume he wasn't meant to be flirting?

All I had in mind was 'Gandalf steals a garden variety pig from an orphanage which is spelt wrong'. The other stuff just came in to fill up the blank spaces.

I'm all in favour of some Phantom and Alien fan art.

Oh indeed, I haven't noticed that!
And concerning Aganzir's picture, I of course saw it already when I was making the description of it, but it's indeed a masterpiece (as always).

Silly girl, that's an academic debate
