Shifting Medium by Shane Miro, Pixie, Ty Ødin
December 21st, 2011 8:57 PMFirst off: The cast
Second: Some awesome teaser Pic's
Third: Poetic Version
Twas five days before christmas and all though a town
Not a player was tasking, not even a C.L.O.W.N
Till Odin, Pixie and Shane drove with care
In hopes that adventures could maybe be theirs
To home depot first, when we should be in bed
Visions of guerilla glue danced in our heads
Pixie Got Pinkie Pie and a knite box that snaps
Shane bought us drinks so we wouldn't nap
While we battled with knights we made such a clatter
A cop sprang from his car to see what was the matter
Away from the cop we hid glue with a flash
and made sure he knew that we weren't smashed
Before the cop came though, it was cold as snow
And we glued knights to the objects below
Battle scenes plenty began to appear
to several locations we drove far and near
Ty was Our driver, we had to be quick
to get down the glue so the knights would stick
To Deerbrook mall is the first place we came
Though our first attempt turned out kind of lame
We wished to tease gravity like a vixen
But gravity's better at power then nixon
We tried to stick them to the side of a wall
but sadly our pieces were doomed to fall
We weren't defeated, no we were sly
We decided gravity, we wouldn't defy
With knights right-side-up (though somewhat askew)
Our first stop and go was done and through
We saw a twinkle on a mail box roof
and thought we would glue and take pic's for proof
One minute's glueing and we turned around
Sped away in our car, and back into town
A shopping cart where the next knights were put
Fought for the silver and fought for the soot
We saw the city sign and snuck around back
We jumped over ditches, puled glue from our pack
When we were done, that sign was more merry
With caged man and tree glued (the man's name was larry)
We stopped by a dentist and with a castle in toe
Now one castle is glued, and the other will glow
Out finale has nothing to do with clean teeth
and better then a king sized bar of heath
We went to a playground with moat wet and smelly
With a shiver of body and growl of the belly
We put knights everywhere, but onto myself
Inhaling that much glue is bad for my health
The battles were fierce, knights head to head
Till we saw the cop car and were filled with dread
He spoke few words, he was doing his work
(I personally though he was kind of a jerk)
He let us off with a slap on the nose
No without ID I never shall go
Into the car we went with a whistle
That we didn't have tickets to sting us like thistle
With that we drove away from the knights
Happy Yule to all and to all a goodnight!
Fourth: Prose Version
Go picture to picture and read the captions and stuff. It will make the poem make more sense, I promise.
Why is this the first photo?
Because I like it, and I think it's catchy. Now, to our non-poetic and not constricted by rhymes version of the story
SHANE MIRO
A baddass like no other. He wields that hammer like a BOSS!
This is Pixie (Molly) and Pinkie Pie
She is very happy to have pinkie pie. She is also talking in the third person, because she did the pictures and is doing the write ups.
Ty Ødin
I shouldn't describe him. I'm a bit biased. He's a fantastic man and muse, and seems to always be missing an eye. Much of this was to celebrate the first day of yule, which is a norse holiday. Much of this was for other reasons.
First Stop: Home Depot
Where so many beautiful dreams begin.
Next: Toys-R-Us
Where so many dreams (like me owning my VERY OWN PINKIE PIE!!!!!!! I"M SO EXCITED!!!) came true
First target: A wall!
Outside of the Dearbrook mall. We were in the neighborhood looking for an ex-player. We just found his mom and an astonishingly beautiful children's book she wrote. We Decided this wall was the place to start
Guerilla Glue
So fun, that you must be over 18 to buy it!
The application process
Much more fun then the one to get into (or transfer into) a college.
Our first Idea
that we would have it defy gravity. Guerilla Glue takes an hour to dry. We decided we could have plenty of fun with the gravity as is. I should also mention that we only had six hands and were all very cold
It's still pretty cool looking though
Volcano and tree!
Our new battle sceen
[Deep announcer voice] "Two brave men fight for the destiny of a kingdom outside the mall parking lot"
From afar
Is pretty blurry, but still there
Stop two: Mail Box
I don't know why Shane's mouth is always open...
The guy's with the cannons are winning
MAN DOWN
...We just couldn't resist
Who doesn't want to storm a castle?
They didn't want to
They decided to pose instead. I guess somewhere the silver and black knights have learned to get along
We thought it was pretty funny...
You should know, we didn't spend more then a minute at each location. Ty was our getaway ride, Shane had the glue, Shane and I did knights and I did pictures. We were pretty clumsy our first few tries, but we got it down!
They look like they are dancing!
I hope this will promote good dental hygiene in kids!
Middle of a parking lot
THERE WAS BATTLE!
THEY ARE SO FEIRCE!
I hope a little kid doesn't sit on these
Short stop for energy drinks so we wouldn't pass out
Thank you Shane :D
Next target
Because it's just too good of a target.
Shane working
we parked behind the sign, jumped a ditch, and started working franticly
A man, A cage, A tree
he doesn't have a weapon, but you can't tell from this picture
Imprisoned and so alone
Maybe he will become a druid so he can be friends with the tree, Maybe the tree will set him free! Maybe he will go into the world as an ECO WARRIOR!!!!! 3D graffiti is so fun!
Ty and Shane's Old scool
He's just on the gound
See that little dot?
He's the line liking thing in the middle of the tile with the dot. Just trust us, it's true.
Our last place, our finale!
Ty carried me over the water to get there
We decided to get a playground
and there are so many battles there!
Like this battle
With horsies!
Horsies need to have their men glued on
or the men will fall off
This is flanking
That silver knight is going down... Wait, he's glued so he has to stay up!
Oh good!
at least he has a friend to help him out
Ether he is pulling out excalaber
or that rock is toast
Cold wet accidents happen
Involving battering rams.
Chillin on the bar
Ain't got to fight nobody! (Wow, the texas lexicon really is getting to me...)
One Man. One battering ram
On the top of a slide!
This is such a cool battering ram
No really. It's cool. You should totally get one, and then we should hang out
I mean look at that detail
I had to take three pictures of it; it was so cool.
How often do you get to see two guys fighting on top of a bar?
and if your answer is often, how often are they wearing full suits of armor? And if your answer is often, I need a place to go on my 21st birthday and you should tell me what bars you go to.
This is when my flash died
But there are so many more battles!
Like this one
(on a different bar) I love the shadow of the twisty thing in the background!
Ty placing things
At our awesome park.
The things he placed
The only reason these pictures are visible has to do with this awesome enhance feature, which makes flash kind of happen afterwords. It's amazing!
Cannon Balls
Siege weapons are important in any campaign
Catapult
which works. And isn't as cool as the battering ram, but still pretty cool
A rock
because it adds atmosphere
You can see knights fighting and the rock.
I wish I could have photographed the whole playset, but then you couldn't see the individual battles
As all great tasking ends...
With the cops, who informed us that all people 18 and up must legally carry ID. Learn something new every day, Hid the Guerilla Glue, haven't been arrested yet...
ID? Weren't you Wearing Your Art as Your Sleeve?
