Shelter Contest!!!

[MinnaCaroline]

The Rules! You most post your favorite picture of Shelter, And then Shelter gets to pick the one he likes the most!

(this was an idea from Anime Daisuki in honor of Taco Island Day!)

I'll start... here's a favorite Shelter picture of mine.



(I have to add, that I found this picture on a website called "Grub Street"

_{Whoever wins the contest receives 500 extra tacos added to their account compliments of the Minister of Immigration.}

Mayor Shelter after hearing that people are going to be late paying their taxes:

I like this picture where Shelter's just doing his thing


And then there's this fine take from when Shelter was visiting the XKI university

All credit for the above portrait goes to Matilda, and if it wins, the tacos should go to her as well

"Unmasked"

[Shelter from the Storm]

Oh my!

[Free Guns For All]

Here's an image of the mayor from his big screen debut, the 2001 Disney/Pixar classic Monsters Inc.

[Aersoldorf]

The Mayor has two eyes and wears glasses

[Aersoldorf]

I think

[Free Guns For All]

He can shape-shift.

[Shelter from the Storm]

I really do enjoy being a green shape-changing monster.

[Aersoldorf]

Next time you decide to shape-shift into a centerfold, let me know

[Shelter from the Storm]

Here I am...

[Aersoldorf]

Leave it to the Mayor, there's nothing he can't provide

[Shelter from the Storm]

I do, however, prefer this shape:

[Aersoldorf]

I hereby withdraw my support

[Shelter from the Storm]

* considers putting Aerso on his hit list *

Nah! He has nothing to testify about...

[Aersoldorf]

I've given you plenty of tax ideas, you wouldn't dare put me on the hit list ;D

[Shelter from the Storm]

That's true.

Why thank you Aerso - I will colour this green pink and brown presently

[Shelter from the Storm]

It does show my more lovely side...

[Aersoldorf]

You have a lovely side? I mean yes, yes it does

^ Magnificent job, Matilda!

You've poignantly captured Our Beloved Mayor's green ghastliness -- yet haunting sensuality -- most chillingly. ;D

[MinnaCaroline]

I love it!!

[Shelter from the Storm]

So do I. I hereby declare it my favourite!

[Aersoldorf]

I agree, job well done Matilda

[Matilda Love]

;D Yay!

*Is visibly struggling with violent emotions that threaten to unhinge*

Thank you Shelter, MinnaCaroline, fellow wonderful and creatively gifted participants and everyone of XKI for your generous and kind words.

*starts to cry but continues through her noble tears with a profound grace*

The creative demands of such a darkly disturbing subject such as this one changes the very fabric of the artists previous and dearest beliefs about the most primal of operational functions delivered by this world we find ourselves thrust upon.

To become enraptured by the numbingly mindless mire of numbers and points of reference inherently sustained by a brilliantly twisted perspective born of an outlook calculated in cold beds of silver and gold has altered my own points of reference and dulled my shine like silver that needs a good clean.

I return to the living with an image, a shelter that is true. I hope each one of you might learn from my sacrifice by engaging with this creative act, this small portrait of a mayor we thought we knew, but it turns out the chasm is to wide to bridge after all.

*raises glass to the XKI mayor and all the brave population of these wonderful islands that stick with such affection (myself included) to the crystalline terror of the mind behind the tacos*
