Questions Only — the Christmas Edition

[countessalmirena]

Let’s try a new word game for the festive season.

The idea is to progress a scene or storyline, using questions only. We can only post one sentence per post, and it must be a question. Hopefully the scene can come to a natural conclusion with a funny ending, after a certain number of posts (let’s say between 10 and 20 questions… as a rough idea).

The person who finishes the scenario can then start the next “round” with a new scenario-starting question, and so on.

I envisage this lasting up to middle of January (hopefully), and then coming to an end as the Christmas season itself will have done.

(We can always start a non-Christmas edition in a new thread if this takes off.)

Please keep the scenarios to a Christmas theme, however vaguely or tenuously.

And we’re off!

Does Santa really give Christmas gifts to the reindeer?

Do the reindeer secretly hate their Secret Santa gifts?

[countessalmirena]

Who’s saying that the reindeer don’t like glow-in-the-dark ties?

Why is the elf-on-the-shelf staring at me?

[sandypebbles]

Was it that elf-on-the-shelf who gave the reindeer those glow in the dark ties?

[mytreechange]

Did Rudolph mistake a bright red glow-in-the-dark tie for a nose-warmer?

[twyngwyn]

Might the nose-warmer come with batteries?

[mytreechange]

Was there a last-minute rush to the shops on Christmas Eve to buy batteries that weren't supplied with the shiny red nose-warmer?

[countessalmirena]

Is the elf-on-the-shelf also battery-operated?

[mytreechange]

Has Santa discovered the elf-on-the-shelf hiding amongst the presents piled high in his sleigh?
