Summarize one of your stories as a Broadway musical soundtrack, pls

So I went on a complete mental tangent off one of [livejournal.com profile] pandemonium_213's comments (concerning a mask), and began imagining my really originally-titled “Of Draugluin” as a Broadway musical.  Once I realized I had several actual song titles of the cracky persuasion in mind, I decided to just indulge my stupid sense of humor and create a whole cracky Broadway musical tracklist for the WIP to date.  

People who write stuff, please swipe this idea, because I want to see other crack!Broadway soundtracks to other peoples’ fics. =D

Melkor’s March  (Ancalagon, Chorus)
The World is My Laboratory   (Mairon, Chorus)
Contractual Lupine Indwelling  (Draugluin)
Werewolf Lullabies  (Whelps)
The World is My Laboratory / Contractual Lupine Indwelling (Mairon, Draugluin)
What the Fuck Did I Get Myself Into?  (Pallandë, Draugluin)
Valinor, Fuck Yeah (Valar)
Trees Are People Too (Draugluin, Ancalagon)

Note 'laboratory' would definitely be pronounced the 5-syllable way.

Uhm. Here are some;

Order imposed (Noldorin lords)
Anthropologist Abroad! (Finrod, humans)
Wake up and smell the future (Noldorin lords, maidens, maiden-aunts, cooks, Finrod, one farting human)
Drink the day away (Sindar, sylvan subjects)
Shells, Beads, Mirrors, Possibly Some Smoke (Noldor, humans)
Shine bright, your hair gives light (humans)
Tell me off before you go go (Finrod, Andreth)

LOL. Finrod is totally an anthropologist, isn't he? Never thought of it like that.

Oh, drunken sylvan elves, your legacy lives on.

One of my first stories posted as shadowbrides is actually about Finrod the anthropologist and the novelty of farting humans, so yes. :P

Wait, where is this, I don't think I've read it?

So you're in the "Elves don't fart" camp? How do they expel the gaseous byproducts of digestion? XD

Ah, it is part of a series called And After A Time The Elf Kings. My very first post was also part of that project. The formatting went kinda wrong, so the original post isn't pretty to look at. I just uploaded the introduction on the SWG: http://www.silmarillionwritersguild.org/archive/home/viewstory.php?sid=1690, the fart chapter called "The Fragrance of Friendship: can be found here; http://shadowbrides.livejournal.com/3985.html. Yes, I can write humour. I just avoid it and go for the dying/doomed people, usually. :P

And no, not really. The entire series isn't exactly serious philosophizing. xD

Okay, yeah, elves not farting totally makes sense for humorous purposes.

Yay, will read later. =D

AHAHA. Both are funny, but that fart one, omg. Thanks, I needed a good laugh.
