OMG ... It's Gulliver in Brobdingnag!


NO ... On second thought ... It looks like it's Fletcher the Adventurer!

Let's be quiet now and enjoy the story from Gus.



Edit: Added the story introduction ...

FLETCHER, THE ADVENTURER

This is Fletcher. We will see him in sir Elmo's stories, now and again.


He is an adventurer.


Fletcher has been following sir Elmo, since the knight came back from the Holy Land. It happens that sir Elmo, prince in his land, didn't go straight back home, but let himself linger in a village, not so nearby his town, where his father, the king, wouldn't like so much his return, since Elmo doesn't come back with titles or properties ... As sir Elmo showed around, he called Fletcher's attention, and the archer began spying on him.


& It happens that sir Elmo has been a bit jumpy about it already ...




*shhhhing*                                                 

Until now, Fletcher has been able to avoid him ... Here he goes again!

                                        ZWEEEE!

It seems that, again, he left his bow behind. It's the second bow he looses ...

                                                  Ooops!
                                                  SCREEENCH!!!



                                                  Oh, no: not this time!



HEY!                                                 
                                       Hehe! ... Thanks, story-teller!

Um ... You're welcome mr. Archer--

Hold up there!!!                                                           
                    ZWEEEEW!!



ARRRRR!!                                                 
TOP! TOP! TOP!                                                 



                                                  tap-tap-tap, tap-tap-tap!



HA!!!                             



?!!                                                       



brgrl!!! ...                                                       
                                                  ufff! ...

& This is Fletcher. He's also a good-humoured fellow ...

hihihi!

Sorry, Gus ...  :-[

I thought that he had jumped out of one of your books. Maybe a Jonathan Swift book? When I saw the hand holding him ... I guess I just assumed he was Gulliver traveling in the Land of the Giants (Brobdingnag) ...   ;D

Love your story ...  :love:

All the best,
Richard

I'm willing to make a story of them jumping out of books :) Once I still haven't any scenaries, I thought about putting them in the middle of books, because it'd be ... nice :yup:

It came out that it's very significant to me my relationship with my characters. This of putting a big hand as a narrator just came out as I was shooting the photos. It makes great sense, in pictures, and it's something to be explored by me, in the future.

Maybe this kind of interaction would help even people who have many klicky and houses, and castles ... to make more interesting stories ... To think about narrative. It's a relationship between the teller and the characters, and towns, and fiction in many ways. And it's a lot of playing, with playmo & with literature, all of it together.

It's great to do it again! I'm delighted :love:

Actually, I intend to shoot something like, with both Fletcher and Elmo ... Only, it'll have to be in the future, because I have to make them meet each other before, and there'll be intervention of a third part so that this can happen as I have in mind. :)

(Third part is already ordered! ;D )

Here, though, is the source of my "playmo+books project" ...



I hope the third part arrives soon! ... :-\

You have suggested some very interesting ideas for Playmobil photo stories, Gus ...

Thank you!

Well, I certainly enjoyed the second part!  Excellent and very funny - I laughed out loud when Fletcher thanked the story teller for reminding him about his bow.  You have a great talent for telling a story and a very good sense of humour.

Bring on the third part!
