Who Me ????

Bravo ! Bravo ! I knew you'd come through.

waft
betrayal
snowbound

I began to cautiously waft the effervescence of the potion towards my probiscus. As I inhaled the compound the umbrageous betrayal loomed over me, my cantankerous assistant had switched the chemicals. Instead of creating a formula to cause sun, I realised I would soon be snowbound.

(and trapped at work). Hehe

onomatopoeia ecclesiastic depolymerize

When a bee buzzed near him, Professor Rawl would tell it that it was committing an onomatopoeia. When a wise man murmured a word of blessing, Professor Rawl would tell him he was being ecclesiastic. People who knew Professor Rawl – he had no friends – would tell him the only way to make him stop being such a stuffed shirt would be to depolymerize him.

Mountie ~equator ~baneful


I was approached by a Mountie While performing an act of free expessionism in Central Park. I did not yield to his requests to desist and he drew on me, forcing me to whip out my equator,a Colt .45. I thought it quite intrusive of him to instill such a baneful wrong against such a natural thing.

Finally!! Gotcha! :D

erudite gregarious polyp

There was a meeting of the erudite at the University last night. Several hundred researchers came down from their ivory towers and tried to look gregarious. Most of them would probably have preferred to undergo polyp surgery.

downtown salinity fatalistic

Downtown was the place to be on a friday night. However, nothing grew here due to the high salinity in the soil. So the city planners were fatalistic that they would be unable to develop the blocks.

Invoice Occult Perm

Beezub sat down at his little red desk and began shuffling one invoice against another. He had the occult sense that his master was about to collect on another lost soul. Sure enough, an echo came from above: “I warned her what would happen if she didn’t get my perm right this time!”

mahout isle saffron

The mahout rousted his elephant manfully about the Indian circus tent. A quiet isle of awe was sustained amidst the greater chaos of lions, tigers, and miniature bears (oh my!). A subtle saffron and patchouli breeze wafted in from the parfumery two hills away in the strong subcontinent breeze.

Bravo! I knew you'd be good at it. It certainly is, isn't it?!

Sybaris, ungainly, phlebotomist

The beauty of long-dead Sybaris lay before him. In his dream, the richness of the city’s markets, the sweetness of its women, lay in ungainly submission to him. No longer a humble phlebotomist but a great necromancer, he laid his teeth to its jugular and drank its glory.

punisher motherlode calm

With the Bastille overrun by rebelling peasants and former prisoners of the under-class, the punisher was without gainful employment. Then, when the new, more Democratic system came into being, he tapped into a new motherlode of exacting tortures and grisly, heartless encounters. A reassuring wave of calm passed over him as he settled into his new profession as "the people's government" Tax Collector.

galvanic frenetic hermetic

Her response to the doorbell was galvanic. Horrified at the possibility of intruders, she began a frenetic pickup of the clutter on the way to the door. Her hermetic habits had allowed her to be perfectly content amid potter's wheels and glaze rags, but a stranger might put a foot through some precious doodad.

diamond
splat
headwind

The illegal long version:
Though a breach in the angry storm clouds, that hovered before the horizon at the edge of the Soulbiter, Honniscarve barely glimpsed the mica-inflected peak of an ominous low lying island that stood directly in his path . Starfare's Gems bow slammed into twenty foot waves as two crewmembers wrestled Dawngreeter off it's spar. The Giants had just shimmied half way down the mast when a demonic headwind seemed to implode the sails. The captian's gnarled fists forced Shipsheartthew down to the left and the dromond heaved to port. Shorebird Weakknee lost his grip and was slammed to the deck, above Saltroamrest, with a resounding splat. As the ship began to recover Linden stuggled along the ropes, hair whipping off her skull, in an attempt to render some futile aid. At last, he felt the infernal gust begin to quale and he glanced backwards at the deadly hazard that a single ray of sun had now struck. It's apex winked at him like a malevolent diamond as if to say, "Next time, Rockbrother, I win!"

The legal short version:
A wicked headwind smashed me into lovely Rita. We meet with a resounding "splat" and fell to the ground in a chaotic embrace. Humliated, she looked at me with daggers in her eyes, I reached into my pocket, opened the little box and said, "Perhaps this diamond ring might make you feel a little better?" :oops: (read the rules 1st danlo!)

And a new player enters the game! Dramatic, Danlo.

Couldn't resist this. Sorry, Danlo, you brought it on yourself. :twisted:

And, back to the game...

insipid magical heartbreaking

An insipid cup of coffee started his day. It made the possibility of any magical change in his life seem very sad and far away. He had the heartbreaking thought that the rainbows and diamonds in his workshop might weigh him down forever, and his little urvilish heart wept for his lost tarpool.

gollum golly gourmand

Gollum line-danced up to the moon-lit pool, spluttering and bemoaning the horrible Texan curse placed upon him while looking for fish to slap to death.
"Golly-gee, Precious, all we wants is something to eats, we does. Tar-nation, we's no gour-mand, we starves, we does..."

"And now, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you Dr. Rupert Stink, author of Impetigo: the Face Beneath......Doctor?"
"Uh...Dr Payne, I'm terribly sorry, but you seem to have me confused with a colleague of mine, Dr Rufus Slink....my book is called Skin Grafts in Three Easy Steps."
"Ah, yes, sorry about that m'boy, but not to worry, it's a phrenology conference anyway, isn't it?"

Mark Twain was fond of using colloquial terms in his stories. Though I did not particularly enjoy the settings for his books, I thought that his subtexted sarcasm and satirical tendencies acted as a lubricant for digesting his otherwise intolerable novels. Of course, my high school English teacher would call me a reprobate for having such an opinion.

Delighted to see Birdandbear join the team, with her nimble sidestepping slink...

chasm, didactic, chrism

There was a deadly, unbridgeable chasm between the English religions of Henry VIII’s day. Even though Henry was opposed to the Catholicism of the Continent, a didactic preacher of Low Church Protestantism was likely to wind up as the center of a bonfire. Henry still wanted the chrism, he just didn’t want the rule of the Pope.

wilderness finesse sakes


Lost in the Arctic wilderness, days away from civilization in any direction, we were nearly starved and definitely freezing. While unsuccessfully trying to finesse a small hook-ended fishing line into the floe crevice to retrieve our fallen supply pack, my partner returned excitedly with a small hand axe. Now, for our sakes, we can only hope to get to the gear without causing it to slip further down, and all before final hypothermia sets in.

[Phew!]

cauterize bunny volcano

As I inspected the ugly gash on my forearm, I soon realised I would have to cauterize the wound in order to save my mauled limb. Bitterly, through an intensifing haze of blood-loss, I glared venomously at the malicious bunny that had attacked me unexpectedly from the neighbouring crevice. Fortunately, the some of the rocks here inside the volcano were sufficiently superheated to perform the procedure.
