In the Blue Light District~Asylum Anne


Following a phonebook pages paper trail, I was fortunate to get close enough as the sun set, that I could find it.  Though who could miss it, all light up brighter than a Christmas tree.  That definitely looks like a phone box...


Who are these creatures ranged round the top of the edifice?  Why are they there?  What more can I see before I'm called in for dinner?  In which case I'll have to hope it's still there come daylight.


Let's see if it's safe to open the door


After dinner I started some research.  That bottle labelled Dune - spice from Arrakis?  Those Aztechie aliens above, the sign "No (picture of missing part) Inside", the trail of phonebook pages.  By daylight I had done enough archaeological research to be pretty sure this was the 23rd Dr's long lost Tardis.  A severe malfunction had left it stranded, calling for help in as many "languages",  sending out signals in the hope SOMEone, SOMEwhere could come and fix it.  The size of the forest around it added weight to the evidence that this was, indeed, the Long Long Long Lost Tardis #23 .

Daylight, and some more evidence comes clear:
There seem to be a lot of broken parts hanging off the side




 On closer inspection, are these pages of the Repair Manual, plastered against the glass as a clue to rescuers as to what is needed, or merely pages from some Intergalactic phone book being used for insulation?

The other side:

And some closeups.  A strange mixture of patching the broken glass panes - part of the plastic bag the new phonebook arrived in... (can you see the prehistoric person stamped behind it?  He is there.


a mica patch, after a dinosaur broke some panes trying to get in and out again and is excreting its own Stupidity :

"They" must have tried posting a help message from Norway (stamp on an envelope from Rubber Dance!) Maybe insufficient address, as it's still here - or they haven't got the right flag up to tell the Intergalactic Mailman to pick it up.
Maybe T-Rex was after some shrooms


I sent DH's new drone up, and discovered a "helipad" precariously still attached.  And more of those alien az-tech guardians from Rubber Dance, one of them sending telepathic thoughts



While the drone is up, there are quite a few antennae trying to get a MayDay out:



A quick look at the back before we dare inspect and open the door...


Is that a ghost going through the wall, or something got too close to an atomic explosion?


Did you think you could avoid the 'shrooms this month??? No way!!!  Is the BluePlanet mechanic contemplating them as a means of escape, or has he been stuck there so looong they're growing from his feet...  Why is the padlock unlocked, when clearly one should Not Open .  There's a lot going on, so let some "detail" pics help



Inside, it is crammed with past attempts at repair, at propitiating the gods...


They even tried cupcakes - though how they cooked them, I have no idea, as blue light isn't very hot.


So after a solid winter's day "digging" into this archaelogical treasure, let us tiptoe away and leave the Paranoid Policeman to man his station until the Good Doctor returns with a repair crew.


So many subtle & not-so-subtle images from http://www.rubberdance.com/ - text, or excerpts from phrases, mushrooms, Aztec dolls, runes & petroglyphs.

Here Dolly Dolly~Challenge #13 with Lunagirl!

Paper Dolls someone said.  But we're Dark, Creepy, Weird.  Coupled with Luna Girl's Minis #2 I am really really challenged.  Whilst my teamies might have sourced other templates, I went to my go-to for all sorts of templates, Mirkwood Designs.
So, thinking prosthetic limbs, thalidomide babies, Genetic modifications, I started cluttering up the last 100 square millimetres on my desk, and came up with these "ladies"...


Mona Lisa is long dead, it figures her bones would have wandered, or be in disarray:

Stencils, grey flowersoft, a bone across her head

I thought back to those books divided so you could flip pages to change heads, torsos and legs, so why not give this one frogs legs (they and torso are Sunday Int stamps) and fly-away hair.  And yes, those are teeny tiny peacock feathers for arms.


And now with a whole peacock roosting on this body, the hands & feet musculature exposed, and the Luna Girls minis turning up in suggestive places...



The last one for now, showing some exquisite bladder control technique - or is she trying to  flaunt, or hide, her box from Santa?  And her other personal attributes?


With her body a bit zombiefied, one truly cannot say there are no flies on her either - flies & ants stamps from vivalasvegas stamps and eyes from Rubber Bandit Stamps


Thanks Luna Girl for setting in train such a storm of ways to use these collage pieces now & in the future.  I hope you've been inspired to weird-up your own "goody-goody" images, and 
link them to our Anything (dark, weird) Goes challenge here:
