Danish King Rising

[Metaliturtle]

a comic interlude with Pierre and Jaques

((so I broke my ankle at work thursday night and now I'm living off of your guys' hard-earned tax dollars (at least you american guys) and I figured we best update))

Pierre sat with a glass of wine in hand, "how are wee supposed to make zees stupid barbarian boats?!!!?"

"I do not know," Jaques said, "maybe we should just cut zem out of cardboard!"

"Jaques, cardboard doesn't float for long"

"Ok zen, wee will just have to cut it out of trees!"

"Of course!"

Meanwhile the spaniards weren't idle.

"Queen Isabella!"

"What is it Marco?"

"Look what I brought back from China?"

Marco Polo held a beautifully carved wooden tube.

"Nice stick Marco, now impress me or I'ma have these guards here kill ya."

"Ok ok, watch"

He pointed the stick at a suit of armor and touched a candle to the other end.

BLAMMMMMMMMO!!

The poor knight didn't know what hit him... because he had kicked the bucket... and as soon as he kicked it, the bullet penetrated his armor and totally made a mess of his innards.

"COOOL!!!!" Isabella liked this new thingy. "Can I give it a try?"

"Sure!" Said Marco

Soon there was nary a Spanish guard left in the throne room...

Brilliant stuff Brilliant

This debate as to how serious or not to be is ok but I think it shows that although you are well known for your humerous writings, you are indeed capable and talented enough to write seriously or dramatically if you like.

There is no reason at all for good comedy not to be interspersed with drama, in fact many of the worlds greatest clowns have been manically depressed behind the scenes.

Many great comedy films have their fair share of tensive and dramatic even romantic scenes, in fact you cant pigeon hole to comedy to a single form, it has many colours and shapes.

Im truly impressed by this one Turtle, but you should use the ideas from your own mind, have the confidence to write from within yourself and cease fearing the worst about your own ability. You are a talented writer it goes without saying

Problem I have is I don't plan my stories out ever, I only know what happens in them about the amount of time it takes to post longer than the rest of you guys.

I have a hard time writing things I know won't be read... like my journal for instance

...Which is a generally somber piece by the way
