1/5

Ladies and gentlemen! I proudly present you the newest masterpiece of 13 great artists of our time...
Here it comes!


It all started when Thinlómien – that's me, obviously – took a piece of paper and wrote:
The wedding crashers, Legolas and Gollum, turned Éowyn and Faramir's Big Day into a disaster.


I sent it to Legate of Amon Lanc, who came up with the following



Hookbill the Goomba's conception of what's happening was
"How unlikely a scenario is this?" wondered Gandalf as Gollum and two of the infamous green Fellowship impersonators appeared. Eomer was not convinved but Arwen's stunned face was enugh to cause Aragorn's nose to grow.


This inspired Aganzir, and she took a couple of nice coloured pens and drew this



According to Beregond, the picture could be described as follows
Sitting with a nasally dishonest Elessar, Arwen is surprised by the appearance of an angry Aragorn and Wizard of the East from a green-tinted parallel universe. Gollum has brought them! Gandalf ponders the probability of such an event as Eomer and Firefoot look on.


And behold! Nogrod's mind was filled with the following picture



A Little Green's comment was
The court of king Aragorn ”Pinocchio” Elessar and queen Arwen Undómiel includes Eomer of the Rohirrim, a lazy Gandalf doing algebra, a hobbit dancing riverdance with his heel burning, an enraged Aragorn, and a freakish, over-enthusiastic wizard. Gollum lifts the veil of reality to reveal the universe with the ”Lord of Stellar Rings”.

2/5

The Might's picture was crazy, at least if you ask the artist himself



Volo's description of the events was almost as crazy
The Gandalfantastic Five show off with their Powers in front of their headquarters in Minas Tirith. Aragorn's Telescope Nose, Eomer's Three Arms, Gandalf's Super Intelligence and Gollum's Stellar Rings impresses the crowd while Crazy Hobbit practices his Dance of Doom.


But Rikae did not consider her work crazy, she considered it perverted...



Oddwen disagreed
A not-at-all perverted but still disfigured Elessar spies with his little nose a certain three-armed Scotsman wearing a grass kilt; another victim of the nuclear Gollum explosion that he himself was exposed to - Gandalf, though he thought himself very wise didn't see that coming, nor does he see the merry dancing Saucepan Baggins sneaking up on him with nefarious karate skills.


Which led Macalaure to create this mindboggling vision



Which The Elf-Warrior calmly described as
Eomer of the Rohirrim basked in the nuclear glow of a Gollum bomb while Gandalf admired his handiwork and The Saucepan Man prepared to drench Gandalf in beer and Boromir hallucinated that a bush was a pretty woman.

3/5

Folwren's vision of these interesting happenings was like this



And according to Legate, the picture showed that
Eomer of the Rohirrim's birthday party was not much of a show, attended only by Gandalf (who showed just one little firework), the Saucepan Man (who amused himself by setting Gandalf's hat on fire), Faramir (who kept dreaming about Arwen and was not interested in anything else) and the isle of Great Britain dressed in a camouflage suit, which in the middle of celebration became bombarded by German planes.


This led Hookbill to draw this



Which led Aganzir to write this
When the decaying Ent is unjustly driven away from Gandalf's firework stand by a German-speaking airplane, his friends want to avenge him: Saucepan Man is so enthusiastic about setting Gandalf on fire that he doesn't even wait for Menel to come. The situation amuses a Rohanian warrior, but Aragorn finds dreaming of Arwen better.


Which, in turn, resulted in Beregond drawing this



Which of course inspired Nogrod to write these memorable words
While Aragorn daydreams and Menel is late, the defeated eye shows Eomer Sauron's comically desperate vision of how it should have ended: people turning against the ents for burning Gandalf while they were never sold the fireworks in the first place being prevented by a German biplane.

4/5

Greenie then took her coloured crayons and this appeared on the paper


The Might thought the picture clearly showed that
Menel and others are too late to stop Eomer from having a vision caused by drugs he received from Sauron. Eomer sees Gandalf burned by Ents, Rohirrim trying to buy fireworks from a pizza delivering Red Baron and Aragorn having a dream about Arwen.


Volo depicted it as follows



And Rikae was convinced that it was
Hippie-Boromir's plot: crash a fighter plane into Sam, and therefore be worshipped by aquatic Meneltarmacils.

5/5

This led Oddwen to have nightmares and draw the following insanity



Mac could only say that it was something like
In his dreams, Hippie-Boromir gleefully equates killing hobbits with a kamikaze plane to raising baby Sea-Menels.


The Elf-Warrior then decided it was time for something like this



And finally, Folwren finished the poor paper telephone round off by noting that
Upon a purple bed of stone, Boromir dreams of Gondorian Kamikazes targeting hobbit holes and feeding the remains of the inhabitants to sea serpents.


And that, ladies and gentlemen, was the end of the story.

Thumbs up

*Is dead*

That was AMAZING!! Thumbs up all round!

I liked Folwren's picture. Not sure why...

Aganzir interpritation of my ramblings was worth its weight in gold!

Well done Lommy! Now that this round is finished, I'm going to start the next one right away!

Oh my, this was really hilarious. All these Menels!

This was definitely worth it. I love Oddwen's pic especially, but also Greenie's pic (that Menel, and then the plane, and their quotes ) and Beregond's pic - the whole composition of it is just amazing! And interpretations, like the one Rikae did for Volo's pic... craziness...

Well, I think I haven't seen that funny PT for some time.

This was just crazy.

Especially...
Legate's Legolas is disgusting.
Miggy's people look like they were nudists.
Am I the only one who thinks Rikae's Aragorn looks suspiciously much like Mac?
I'm still laughing at Oddwen's nuclear Gollum explosion and the pic Mac drew of it. And how Saucie came there.
Hookbill's ent and Achtung-plane had me laughing for minutes when I first received the picture.
I love Beregond's pic, especially the plane.
Greenie's Menel is just incredibly cute! ...And that plane.
Oddwen, I love that pic. Those Menels, oh my god... :'D

edit: xed since Oddwen
