Title Contest -- Round XXII
|
Can't Post
|
|
Thank you to SirDennisD for finding the humour in an uncharacteristically (we would hope!) "Catty Eowyn".
For Round XXII I've chosen an uncharacteristically serious moment for our young hobbits. See what you can all do to make them seem a bit more merry. 
Cheers!

******************************************
"Hola! Gorbag! What are you doing up here? Had enough of war already?"
"Orders, you lubber. And what are you doing, Shagrat? Tired of lurking up there? Thinking of coming down to fight?"
"Orders to you. I'm in command of this pass. So speak civil. What's your report?"
"Everything's really great in Cirith Ungol,
All the way from here to down below.
We haven’t seen old Shelob though she’s seven ranga tall,
About as high as a spider oughta grow!
"There’s one thing that we found in Cirith Ungol,
We found it just a little while ago.
There’s a slime trail going all the way to Shelob’s dark abode.
We followed it and found a giant midget elf-lord in the road,
We fought him and prevailed and boy we really knocked him cold!
He’s out about as far as he can go!
He’s out about as far as he can go!"
-Rodgers and Hammerstein, The Lord of the Rings

Merry and Pippin were awfully disappointed upon finding out that toilets in Rohan flush the same way as in the Shire. /

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."
"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Pippin had already had a bad feeling about going Halloween costume shopping with Merry, even before Merry spotted the Bill the Pony costume. //

so it was inevitable that your entry, Meneldor, would produce peals of laughter. It's been a secret fantasy of mine to open a cafe called Second Breakfast, and there would be no such incredulous glances from disappointed hobbits in my establishment!
Though you had many worthy opponents, the field is yours!
Let Round XXIII begin!

...timing!
Peals of laughter are good. Snorting cinnamon toast out your nose is better.
Thanks, Lissuin, Round XXIII is incoming.
