She Said What?!


It's time for the She Said What Blog-O-Versary Bloghop!  This fun exercise in creativity is brought to us by Elise Fallson and Michelle at Writer-in-Transit. We've been challenged to caption a cartoon provided by our hosts.  There is even a list of bonus words you can incorporate into your cartoon as an additional challenge.

Bonus words: twist, cheek, buzz, honour, grey, champagne, tango, vomit

I can't refuse a challenge, so I incorporated all of the bonus words.  They're written in red so you can easily see how I chose to use them.  I think my cartoon is rather silly, but that's the whole point, right?

Enjoy!


Panel 1

M(in balloon): Come on, it takes two to tango!  We can't dance if we don't get to the contest on time!

E: Hey, don't get your knickers in a twist!  I'm hurrying!




Panel 2

E: Oh, I think I'm going to vomit! Everything in my body is going into reverse!

M: Speaking of knickers, I can see yours from here!  Were they always grey, or do they need to be washed? People might see those while you're twirling around on the dance floor.



Panel 3

V: There's a dragon, ladies!
     Never fear, V is on the way,
     ready to save the day!
  Handsome, honest, strong as a steed,
    I am honour-bound to help those in need!
     
Panel 4

V: Egads!  The sun has gone out!









Panel 5 

M: That figures.  I spent an hour making sure my hair looked just right, and I'm about to plunge into a lake!






Panel 6

E: Wow!  That gave me a buzz!  I have a leech on my cheek, but  at least the blood will match my outfit!

M: That was more fun than the last dance contest when they replaced the water in the cooler with champagne!


Panel 7

Dragon: V, you need to stop using me as your wingman.  This is the ninth time your scheme has failed.

M: Come on E!  The dance is this way!
