So I had to click through and hear the original, which was... it was certainly a thing.Parody? Or just what happens when white boys rap? Amusing all the same. :happy:
Lonely Island just makes fun of rap itself rather than specific songs, I think. Jack Sparrow is by far my fave (but again, explicit language).

okay, the office closed, so i could check out 'on a boat.' well... at least it wasn't the usual rap topics. i have to say, that when i read the lyrics, i had a very strong tune in my head, but it was not rap. in fact, it sounded more like 'bad horse' from dr horrible's sing-a-long blog. (by the way, freaky as that movie is, i actually found it kind of meaningful. i recommend it.)
Ah yes...Bad Horse...
Bad ass, Bad ass!
Bad ass, Bad ass!
I ride across the Wilde'vale
The elven assassin
A tad exasperated Xai was not turned in
So back to chasing Wardens
To her heart a way in
A joyous ride?
Plunge through the grass?
Nat'rally show exquisite class.
Bad ass, Bad ass!
Bad ass, I'm baaaad...
Ahem....yes. Thanks guys

I will probably just write the story, because it will become all too hard

Prompt: Horsing Around
Short Version: something with Zevran and a horse or horses.
Long Version: Zevran seems to have a strange affinity for horses. I let him play my Horse Racing Fantasy game as a jockey, he's really good. Scarily good. (See also page 4 of Shadow of Light Dragon's "The Hunt" :X )
Do city elves know how to ride horses? Does an Antivan Crow? Does Zevran? Where would he pick up something like that? Does Zevran have a horse-centric story just chock full of Zevranisms? (I'm almost afraid to suggest that one!) Does he get along as well with horses as he seems to with dogs? Does he get stepped on? Does he do "coach-jackings"?? Does he not have a horse, just a lot of leather straps and bridles and... let's not go there! :X (Well, I mean... unless you want to.)
Alternate: Zevran can just be horsing around, as in messing or playing around.
Time: 3 hours, up to 5 hours if you want to make a picture.
Medium: Any
Deadline: Friday, February 10, 5pm GMT (or when i get around to it)
Prize: Your choice of--
1: A Zevran Pin-up Photo (specify to amore or amora, and PG or.. what's that british slang i learned? "tackle out")
2: A screenshot from any of my videos.
3: A short tutorial on... something I know how to do. As long as it is short!
Non-Entry: My Little Wardens
Time: 6.5 hours (quite a bit over time limit XD)
I started drawing Zevran, and then I just got carried away.

oh, we have to ask corker for a ruling... but since you're new, you might be at the top of the list for doing the next prompt. (not sure if we can tap you if you didn't make an entry.) not to scare ya, but it helps to start thinking of that ahead of time.
my little pony isn't anime. is it? i thought it was american.
tryyn:
hey, go for it! you can always just write the script for the lyrics/video. you DID want a musical this week, didn't you?

ZEVLERO - is rated NSFW - is youtube video the prompt part is only 3ish mins so dont be put off by the 8mins long. Stay tuned to the end if you can LOL
Time: Writing 30mins - prompt portion of video editing 3 1/2 hours - photo searching ridiculous amount of time
Medium: Video story/music
--------------------------------------------------------------
These ideas seem so much better in my head. I was horsing around doing this, not Zev as Bloodsong suggested. BUT it does involve a horse and Zevran hahahaha
And I must say now.....
if I win I sooooo want a pin-up based on the prompt ending.... K

if you win, you're going to wait until i have zevran's head hammered into shape. ...come to think of it... i *can* pose him on a horse in poser. but again... i need his head! still working on it :/
i have another song for y'all. but it involves spacing, and i don't see where to put code in a post (nor do i know any bbcode) to preserve it, and i fear bioware will eat it all. and, frankly, it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the theme, but it WAS 1/3 inspired by shadow's song.
"Look at me! I'm awesome on a horse!"
that's gonna be tough to beat, tryyn.... i'm still laffin....

Non-Entry: Marvelous Fun
(because it doesn't so much involve horses as the word 'horse' was somehow tangentially involved in the inspiration)
Prompts: 6
Sickly sweet blue-white fire burned down her throat. Wynne didn't approve of lyrium use, in general, but if there was ever a time and a place for it, defending Denerim from the Archdemon's horde was surely it.
She cast the bottle aside and raised her staff again, channeling the raw magic into the lines of a glyph - repulsion, something to keep the darkspawn from approaching their line of archers. Despite Oghren's best tactics, some of the creatures did charge past their shock troops at the gates. But, out of formation, and now held at bay with her glyph, the Ferelden missilers were taking them to pieces.
Speaking of their shock troops... it would soon be time to renew the enchantments she had laid on them for extra speed and protection in combat. Wynne squinted through the smoke toward the gate, looking for either the dwarf's distinctive stocky form or Zevran's pale hair. (Honestly, why wouldn't he wear a helmet?) Moments passed, and she grew alarmed as she could find neither.
Then she saw it - the alien angles of Oghren's purloined Legionnaire armor, face-down and prone but somehow moving erratically through the lines, toward her position. A darkspawn using his body as cover from the archers? Or...
Oghren bumped against the edge of the repulsion glyph, stopped and tumbled to the ground - revealing Zevran, bent nearly double under his burden. "My darling Wynne!" he shouted, waving to get her attention, then pointing at Oghren. She pointed her staff in reply, directing healing energies out to the dwarf... and a moment later, a rejuvenation spell to the exhausted elf, who was obviously panting even as he stood guard over Oghren.
The dwarf clambered unsteadily to his feet; Wynne could not hear his grunted question, but supposed he was wondering how he came here from the front lines. She was already working to renew the wards on both of them when she heard Zevran's laughing reply over the chaos of the battle: "Marvelous fun, indeed!"
------------------------------
Inspired by:
- Oghren: I would have thought saving the surface would have involved less walking.
- Zevran: Little legs getting tired?
- Oghren: I thought these people had animals. Horses and such.
- Zevran: In Orlais, perhaps, but not here. If you like, I could hoist you up on my back.
- Oghren: Hey now, don't start with the--
- Zevran: Yes, climb up, and I'll cart you around like a child! Marvelous fun!
- Oghren: You knife-eared pipe-cleaner, you couldn't carry me on your best day.
- Zevran: Mmmm. Perhaps if you left behind the spirits, all the weapons, and lost about two feet of beard...
- Oghren: Ach. I give up. Just keep walking.

@Corker - Nice little story - the idea of Zev hauling Oghren around though... I dont know lol
@SoLD - I finally got to listen to the music and put it to the words.... hmmmnnn
@BS - Even if I dont win - you could still do it, coz youre nice like that
PS - to make it easier if you know a way to cut a frame from the Zevs poledance routine - then seperate him from the background and transpose him onto any random black Andalusian horse prancing around freestyle (no reins - saddle - or people in the pic) that would work for me.
I think people do that kind of thing in Photoshop - I dont know how even though I have photoshop on my dead computer.

i like it. because it was freaky and kinda scary.
but i do have to say (not to you, to the writers)... lose 2 feet of beard? but... oghren doesn't have a beard.... i mean, he's got moustaches and sideburns, but... the middle is empty. ...ainnit?
@tryyn:
thank goodness you couldn't fully illustrate your video. lol! it was scary enough.
wait, what am i doing that's so nice? illustrating zevran being awesome on a horse, dressing him in the leather harness like you asked if you'd win, or pasting a nekkie zevran on a horse??? i don't recall promising anything like the latter! the other two.... possible.
as long as it ain't today.

Scary? in a good way yea?
or scary - you really should not have attempted this project scary?
Okay if its too hard dont worry about nekkid Zev on a black stallion - maybe some other awesome artist person will be inspired
I thought that would be easier or at least as easy as posing Zev for a pinup - Id be happy with any pic to be truthful - I want a collection of Zev pics I can call my own and use anywhere I want to publish his awesomeness to the masses - I plan to infiltrate China's iron wall in 2013 - it could be dangerous - but I have contacts

Should had been clear from the beginning. The Elves in Skyrim are not very beautiful. Neither my Dark Elf Mage nor my Wood Elf Archer is something to look at.

Wood elves are by far the best of 3 choices of elves - but they still look like aliens and I hate that look. I have always thought of elves to be more beautiful than the humans (that too would be easy in Skyrim)I like it that humans are not "Hollywood" supermodels but seriously with humans you get a sliding scale of ugly to fugly.
In choosing a wife for Zevran I think the Prietess in the Diabella Temple will be to his liking - the god Diabella is the god of lust .... we know how he loves his sex goddesses hehehe
and wow Zax you have really churned em out! Way to go!!

scary, as in i was laughing the whole time? yet expecting something bad to happen. like, on purpose. you know. yes, good-scary!
btw, you never said how your holiday video project went. ...?
@ zax:
congrats! and stick howe a couple extra times (preferably below the belt) for me and my boys, k?
there's elves in skyrim? :X i saw some videos of that game; it didn't do anything for me. but my rp buddy says they're working on a multiplayer mod, so maybe i'll get into that eventually... he's still waiting for diablo iii. actually, he was looking at playing the assassin in that, so perhaps i will play a morriganesque sorceress.
did you guys try the amalur demo? they tried to do cutscenes and voiced dialogues and all like DA, but the rp in it... isn't. i didn't really get into my character at all. the fighting and magic stuff is cool, though.

This has been sitting around in my brain for a while, waiting to get posted to the Cutting Room Floor. Bannon & Zevran at the beginning of the Wolf in the Fold chapter. On a horse.
Enjoy!
