Narnian "Twelve Days of Christmas" (2024)

Ajnos Gamgee — Wed, 25 Dec 2024 21:46:39 +0000

Since we didn't do anything big for Christmas this year, I thought we could have a little fun with the 12 Days of Christmas. The idea is to come up with a version of the 12 Days song, but a Narnian version. Each day, whoever wants can share ideas they have for that day or illustrations or anythig else they feel like related to that number and day. I'll get us started in the next post.

Ariel_of_Narnia — Tue, 15 May 2018 23:35:29 +0000

Hello, all! Just setting up this thread for live commentary for TLC's showing of Disney/Walden Media's 2008 adaptation of Prince Caspian. Just a reminder, the event starts Wednesday, May 16, 2018 at 5:00 pm Pacific Time. Get your movie going at that time and join in on the discussion on this thread as we watch the film together.
If you can't make it for the event itself (or come in late), you're still welcome to join the discussion as you watch it on your own time.

Lent Prayer Project

Benisse — Sat, 24 Feb 2018 20:03:28 +0000

Lent begins on Valentine's Day this year, so I propose a prayer project to reflect God's love for the world. From now till Easter, I invite you to spend time praying for various countries using either the info from the Operation World link in the Around the World in ABC's: Alphabetical Global Prayer thread at the following URL address:
https://www.thelionscall.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=277
or from your own heartfelt prayer burdens. I will note our progress in our praying around the world on the country list in the first post of that thread, but feel free to pray as God leads you for our needy world.

Note: Please post your country prayers in the Around the World in ABC's Thread (see above link) rather than in this thread (which is locked).

The TLCinema -- Showing "The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe"

Tenethia Brandybuck — Sat, 26 Mar 2016 17:51:11 +0000

Alright, everyone!

Are you excited for this evening? I certainly am :D We want to start the movie right around five, so get your popcorn popped! :)

Narnian Artifact Quest II

elanorelle — Sun, 06 Mar 2016 16:31:24 +0000

You'll be scouring the web (or calling on your own creativity) to find the costume accessory or prop specified for that hunt.

You'll come back with links to three different items: one "Luxe" (what you could buy if you had no budget), one "The Look for Less" (a very inexpensive item that still reasonably resembles the item you're questing for) and one "DIY" version. This last one can be a craft version you find online, but it would be ten times more awesome if you make it yourself. Our favorite items will go onto some new Pinterest boards we're creating for the purpose, and the top item in each category will probably go onto a new page of recurring costuming/prop "where to get it" pages that we're planning to run.

The rules:

1. You must get all your links approved in the usual fashion.
2. The "Look for Less" item should be something where there is more than one available. You can usually tell if eBay items are mass-produced or not because they'll say they have more than one available, or you'll see the same item later on your search page. We want this to be an item anyone can buy.
3. The Luxe item can be a one-off. Just so it's droolworthy. It cannot be the original prop (Yes, props come up on eBay sometimes.) and you cannot say "I will commission Jasmine Watson to create a replica for me." You CAN have a replica made if you find a site where a person is already offering custom made replicas. There have been one or two artists who offer made-to-order replicas of Susan's crown, for example.
4. Please include the price of the item if at all possible. With some made-to-order items no price may be listed, and we understand, but otherwise we want to know. You don't need to include shipping.
5. Don't list an item someone else has already posted, (unless you happen to find it for a reduced price!) Either find something different or skip that category. You don't HAVE to do all three, but we'd love to see you try.
6. Judging will be fairly subjective. If a $5 item approximates Lucy's crown, but a $10 item is a dead ringer, the $10 item will probably win in the "Look for Less" category. Likewise crafts that are both easy to do and fairly convincing will probably be rated higher than incredibly complicated items that only an artisan could make (but by all means, share your artisan items!)
7. By providing images of your crafts, you grant TLC the right to use such pictures on our site, Pinterest, social media, etc.

We will post one item every fortnight

Places to look: eBay, Amazon, Etsy, Pinterest, Google...remember Google Reverse Image search is your friend!

This round we want you to search for Susan's horn (reference below).

Submissions should be in by the 20th.

Extended to 31st.

Art Challenge

elanorelle — Fri, 19 Feb 2016 13:13:39 +0000

19. February - 15. March

From Lantern Waste to the Silver Sea, Narnia is filled with enchanting places we envision when we read and now YOU can bring your imaginings to life through art.

Everything is up to you, so let your creativity loose! Choose your setting. Choose your medium . And, finally, complete your masterpiece and post it here.

Rules:

1. Send links to Tooky or White Rose for approval or post your image(s) directly. (If you need any help with the latter bit, feel free to PM staff members.)
2. Use your imagination and steer clear of what you have seen in the films and illustrations. This is a challenge after all.
4. Post your entry on or before the deadline - any later and it will not be entered in the contest.
3. Have fun and don't stress out.

We can't wait to see what you come up with!

Narnian Artifact Quest

Kristi — Thu, 11 Feb 2016 11:30:23 +0000

Time for a new contest!

In it, you'll be scouring the web (or calling on your own creativity) to find the costume accessory or prop specified for that hunt.

For example: This week's artifact will be Queen Lucy's Crown

You'll come back with links to three different items: one "Luxe" (what you could buy if you had no budget), one "The Look for Less" (a very inexpensive item that still reasonably resembles the item you're questing for) and one "DIY" version. This last one can be a craft version you find online, but it would be ten times more awesome if you make it yourself.

7. By providing images of your crafts, you grant TLC the right to use such pictures on our site, Pinterest, social media, etc.

We will post two items every fortnight, probably one from a male character and one from a female, so guys and gals can both enjoy the hunt. Feel free to quest for both items, or just the one that takes your fancy.

An example of my entries for Lucy's Crown:

Luxe ($845.35): https://www.etsy.com/listing/253958542/exceptional-antique-silvered-leaf-tiara

The Look for Less ($3.49): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Princess-Wedding-Bridal-Prom-Party-Pearl-Crystal-Flower-Hair-Band-Headband-Tiara-/391174795955?hash=item5b13d5b2b3:g:5jkAAOSwWTRWumNi

DIY: http://forum.narniaweb.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=239&start=64

Places to look: eBay, Amazon, Etsy, Pinterest, Google...remember Google Reverse Image search is your friend!

Now that you understand the rules, get ready! The first two items will be listed in the post below!

A TLC Rendition of "A Christmas Carol"

The Happy Islander — Sun, 05 Jan 2014 20:55:50 +0000

I just remembered tonight that Ajjie had wanted to see the log of the impromptu rendition of A Christmas Carol that happened during the Christmas Costume Party. I thought other persons might like to see it too, so here it is (in all its somewhat-tidied-upness, my apologize for the lack of formatting and the length, but... it's already an hour past my bedtime!):

Mysterious Shepherd: *giggles mysteriously*
EbenezerScrooge: *taps fingers* giggles...giggles....I DO say...
The Happy Snowflake: *snork*
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously watches*
EbenezerScrooge: *knocks the mysterious Shepherd's hat off*
The Happy Snowflake: o.O
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously puts it back on*
The Happy Snowflake: We need some Christmas ghosts to tame our Scrooge, methinks. *nods seriously*
HERMEYtheELF: this is all very mysterious
The Happy Snowflake: Quite
HERMEYtheELF: *agrees with Happy Snowflake*
Mysterious Shepherd: Indeed.
HERMEYtheELF: where are the Ghosts of Past, Present, and Future?
EbenezerScrooge: Ghosts? Spirits? Humbug!
The Happy Snowflake: So... does anyone happen to know any Christmas ghosts? *looks around hopefully*
EbenezerScrooge: There is no such thing! Bah!
Guest 944586: Oh, have I walked in on a Christmas party?
The Happy Snowflake: Yes. smiley Do you happen to be a Christmas ghost by any chance?
EbenezerScrooge: Christmas party? bah!
HERMEYtheELF: *crosses fingers hopefully*
Mysterious Shepherd: yes, you have
Guest 944586: Well, I don't know what you mean by that :P
Guest 944586: You see, I am an old member who hasn't been on in a very long time
EbenezerScrooge: See? This guest also knows that there is no such things as ghosts or spirits, especially Christmas ones
The Happy Snowflake: We're trying to tame our Scrooge, but we don't have a Ghost of Christmas Past, Christmas Present, or Christmas Future handy.
The Happy Snowflake: It's a costume party ; )
EbenezerScrooge: Bahhhhhhhhhh! HuMMMBUG!
Guest 944586: I would love to be the Ghost of Christmas Past.
The Happy Snowflake: Oh, goody!
Guest 944586: Perhaps I should log in first though.
Mysterious Shepherd: Be it.
The Happy Snowflake: :)
bluewater: Hello. :)
Mysterious Shepherd: hello! :D
bluewater: It is I, Guest 944586
The Happy Snowflake: :D
Mysterious Shepherd: :D
HERMEYtheELF: Hello *waves*
bluewater: Does anyone remember me?
bluewater: (If so, I am terribly sorry.)
Cindy Lou Who (Admin): I do! I'm a Who! Oh, what a to-do!
Mysterious Shepherd: :p
bluewater: How do I change my username?
EbenezerScrooge: I see no ghosts, still
Ghost of Christms Past: There we are, I've figured it out.
The Happy Snowflake: Oh, goody, because I wasn't sure how to explain! :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: Hello
EbenezerScrooge: No! an apparition!
The Happy Snowflake: *looks at Ghost of Christmas Present*: I thought you were done changing your name...? ; )
Ghost of Christmas Present: :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: You said you needed ghosts smiley-razz
The Happy Snowflake: ; )
Ghost of Christms Past: So, ghosts you have received.
The Happy Snowflake: Yes, quite :)
EbenezerScrooge: Speak comfort to me!
HERMEYtheELF: two ghosts! yikes!
The Happy Snowflake: I dunno, the Ghost of Christmas Present seems to be quite jolly :)
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously thinks you aren't alowed to be two people...?*
Ghost of Christmas Present: Where is ghost of Christmas future?
EbenezerScrooge: At least there is not ghost of the future, for I fear him most
Ghost of Christms Past: In the future, I suppose.
Mysterious Shepherd: :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: :p
The Happy Snowflake: :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: and where's Marley
HERMEYtheELF: Marley was dead, to begin with.
Ghost of Christms Past: :P
The Happy Snowflake: Marley: *floats through the door*
Ghost of Christmas Present: Did he already come :p
EbenezerScrooge: Yes, he has been dead these seven years
HERMEYtheELF: I havent seen him.
The Happy Snowflake: Marley: *has lots of chains*
HERMEYtheELF: oooooo *scary*
EbenezerScrooge: No...I won't believe it
EbenezerScrooge: it could be my upset stomach
EbenezerScrooge: There's more grave to gravy than there is to you
The Happy Snowflake: Marley: *sends three ghosts to haunt Scrooge*
The Happy Snowflake: *is much too happy to be a proper Marley* :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: :p
HERMEYtheELF: hehehe
Ghost of Christmas Present: Skip the Marley part and go on to the gohost of Christmas past smiley
The Happy Snowflake: Marley: *is done and floats through window*
The Happy Snowflake: There.
Ghost of Christmas Present: ghost not gohost :p
Ghost of Christmas Present: :p'
Ghost of Christmas Past: I had my name as "Ghost of Christms Past"
Mysterious Shepherd: :P
Ghost of Christmas Past: how embarrassing.
EbenezerScrooge: What do you want with me, ghost of Christmas Past?
Ghost of Christmas Past: Ah, yes. You left your socks at my house and I have come to return them.
Mysterious Shepherd: :P
EbenezerScrooge: YIKES!
The Happy Snowflake: *snerks*
EbenezerScrooge: not the red ones?
Ghost of Christmas Present: :p
Ghost of Christmas Past: The yellow ones with flamingos on the ankles.
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously dies*
HERMEYtheELF: oh dear oh dear. hehehe
EbenezerScrooge: How did you know of such a pair?
Ghost of Christmas Past: Because you left them on my living room floor.
EbenezerScrooge: But I have never met you before
HERMEYtheELF: hm, very mysterious. Wouldn't you agree, Shepherd?
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously nods*
EbenezerScrooge: nope
HERMEYtheELF: nope? whachya mean, nope?
Ghost of Christmas Present: Maybe the Ghost of Christmas Future brought them there and that's why he didn't show up today :p
The Happy Snowflake: Oh, must be it :) Unless he's gonna show up later that is
HERMEYtheELF: true true
Ghost of Christmas Present: :D
Mysterious Shepherd: So that was the future? So you will lose your socks or what?
The Happy Snowflake: Unless there are any time travelers amongst us?
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously confused*
HERMEYtheELF: woah .....
EbenezerScrooge: Well you see, I can't be changed, if that's what you think, without the ghost of Christmas Future
HERMEYtheELF: well I hope he gets here soon!
EbenezerScrooge: Little...elf...little elf...
Ghost of Christmas Present: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
EbenezerScrooge: Careful what you say!
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously idles*
HERMEYtheELF: ^_^
The Happy Snowflake: We'll send out a search party for the Ghost of Christmas Future if he doesn't show up by the time the Ghost of Christmas Present is done with you. :)
HERMEYtheELF: Good idea, Snow
EbenezerScrooge: I shall melt you, snowflake
HERMEYtheELF: :-O
Ghost of Christmas Present: I am the Ghost of Christmas Present
EbenezerScrooge: I see that. What do you want with me, Spirit?
Ghost of Christmas Present: Look upon me!
EbenezerScrooge: *looks upon*
Ghost of Christmas Present: There are some upon this earth of yours, who lay claim to know us, and who do their deeds of passion, pride, ill-will, hatred, envy, bigotry, and selfishness in our name, who are as strange to us and all our kith and kin, as if they had never lived. Remember that, and charge their doings on themselves, not us.
EbenezerScrooge: I see your meaning. But what else do you have to teach me? what makes Christmas so spectacular?
Ghost of Christmas Present: Jesus Christ's birth :)
EbenezerScrooge: I see that. :) *smiles a little*
EbenezerScrooge: O spirit, perhaps I can change after all..
Ghost of Christmas Present: It is a fair, even-handed, noble adjustment of things, that while there is infection in disease and sorrow, there is nothing in the world so irresistibly contagious as laughter and good-humour.
HERMEYtheELF: well done, Spirit! Bravo! *claps*
The Happy Snowflake: *applauds*
Ghost of Christmas Present: :)
Mysterious Shepherd: *mysteriously smiles in approvel*
EbenezerScrooge: Well I suppose *chuckle* that perhaps I have been a little hard...
The Happy Snowflake: *holds auditions for the Ghost of Christmas Future* I can't do it, I was horrid enough as Marley. :p
HERMEYtheELF: hehehe :D
EbenezerScrooge: O no, but I still fear that ghost... do not ask him to come =0
The Happy Snowflake: *gives Scrooge a nice wreath to celebrate the beginning of his reformation*
EbenezerScrooge: A... gift?
The Happy Snowflake: *looks around for volunteer ghostses*
Lilliandil: *comes in and sits down in chair*
The Happy Snowflake: Yes a gift :)
Mysterious Shepherd: Hi, Dill.
The Happy Snowflake: Hi Dilly! Do you want to be a ghost?
The Happy Snowflake: We're trying to tame Scrooge, but we haven't yet found a Ghost of Christmas Future
Lilliandil: Hi, Shephard and Swonflake. And sure, but what for?
Lilliandil: *Snowfalke
Wise_Men: *all come in and sit on the floor*
HERMEYtheELF: He's doing much better though
Ghost of Christmas Present: Be the ghost of Christmas Future Please
EbenezerScrooge: Do not listen, Lilliandil
The Happy Snowflake: Hello again Wise Men :)

Wise_Men: * we meant _
Ghost of Christmas Present: Hello, Men
EbenezerScrooge: *hides under the bedcover* is there any ghost here, yet?
HERMEYtheELF: haha, ok
Lilliandil: *smiles and sits in chair, not really sure what to do*
The Happy Snowflake: Hrm. Who wants to tell the Ghost of Christmas Future what she's supposed to do? :)
Star of Bethlehem: I don't remember. That story always scared me.
EbenezerScrooge: I see not ghost *pops back under the covers*
Wise_Men: *all gasp* We have never met the Ghost of Christmas future is it scary!?
Ghost of Christmas Present: Yes, and I am Happy :D
EbenezerScrooge: He must be, o wise men
Wise_Men: *are wise* :p
Lilliandil: *giggles*
Ghost of Christmas Present: Lil, get into costume :p
The Happy Snowflake: @Dill: You show him things that will happen in the future if he doesn't repent, and point a lot without talking.
The Happy Snowflake: Or you could just... wing it, or maybe
Ghost of Christmas Present: I can be it :D
The Happy Snowflake: explain how Scrooge's yellow socks ended up on the Ghost of Christmas Past's floor
The Happy Snowflake: hee
The Happy Snowflake: whatever :)
EbenezerScrooge: Tell me nothing, spirit! but leave me!
Lilliandil: Okay...
EbenezerScrooge: I must be away for a moment, good people! Pray, have mercy on ,e
EbenezerScrooge: me*
The Happy Snowflake: :p
HERMEYtheELF: ooo he's really scared
Ghost of Christmas Future: *Comes in scary*

The Happy Snowflake: Oh, I guess someone else took the job, Dill. if you're ok with that?
HERMEYtheELF: *hides*
Lilliandil: *nodnods. Sits back, ready to be amused*
The Happy Snowflake: :)
Ghost of Christmas Future: *Points at Scrooge*

Ghost of Christmas Future: *Points to the wall*
The Donkey (Admin): *trots in*
The Happy Snowflake: Hi Donkey smiley You've come in just in time to see the last part of the taming of our Scrooge :)
Ghost of Christmas Future: *A vision appears on the wall*
EbenezerScrooge: What is it that you wish me to do, Spirit?
EbenezerScrooge: WHAT'S THAT, SPIRIT?
Lilliandil: *tries to hold in giggles*
The Donkey (Admin): Ooh fun *settles down and watches*
Ghost of Christmas Future: *A vision of three men, on stairs conversing*
HERMEYtheELF: *very scary*
EbenezerScrooge: What does it mean, Spirit? Am I to learn something that I may help my life a little
Ghost of Christmas Future: *Points to the vision for Scrooge to enter*
