Interpretation Variations

[Tanuchan]

The challenge is as follows:

 

The "paragraph" below has lost all punctuation, some connecting words, and any indication of emphasis (for example, italicizing). How would you "reconstruct" that paragraph, following the guidelines below?

• what can be added: punctuation, emphasis marks (italics, bold), connecting words (transitions, conjunctions, etc) or connecting expressions; no adding of full sentences or phrases just for effect!
• what can be changed: the order of the words/phrases, verb tenses and word form (noun/adjective/adverb/verb)
• what can't be changed: the words and the content (you cannot delete a word, and you cannot replace it with another)
• line breaks (to make more than one paragraph) are alright

How many variations could we create, and how many with a different overall 'feeling' as a result? :-)

 

 

 

so it was a dark stormy night the kind of night that either gives you creepy nightmares or makes you wonder whether the world will see another dawn the kind of night where you'd expect to see no one in the streets so full of dark shadows created by the shaded lamplights scattered through the streets there was at least someone who wasn't afraid of that lonesome feeling walked the paths facing the storm without even a protection other than the cloak's hood carelessly thrown up over their face what this somewhat ghostly somewhat unsettling figure was doing out was nobody's business or maybe just a few people's their own their solicitor what would this commission entail one wondered

 

 

Have fun =)

So. It was a dark, stormy night; the kind of night that either gives you creepy nightmares, or makes you wonder whether the world will see another dawn. The kind of night where you'd expect to see no one in the streets. So full of dark shadows, created by the shaded lamplights scattered through the streets...

 

There was at least someone - who wasn't afraid of that lonesome feeling - walking the paths. Facing the storm without even a protection other than the cloak's hood, carelessly thrown up over their face. What this somewhat ghostly, somewhat unsettling figure was doing out was nobody's business. Or maybe just a few people's; their own, their solicitor. What would this commission entail?

 

One wondered...

It was a dark stormy night... one wondered.

 

So, the kind of night that either gives you a somewhat creepy nightmare, or makes you wonder whether the world will see another dawn. So full of shadows, created by the shaded lamp lights scattered through the somewhat dark streets.

 

There was, at least, someone who wasn't afraid of that lonesome feeling. Who walked out the paths, facing the storm, with the cloak's hood carelessly thrown up over their face.

 

What was this ghostly protection, this unsettling figure, doing out, or even what would this commission entail? Was nobody's business! Maybe just a few people's... other than their own their solicitor.

Stormy night, dark it was. - the kind of a night, that gives you creepy nightmares or so.
Makes you wonder... Whether the world, would see dawn.
The another kind of night, where you'd expect to see no one.
In the dark streets, so full of shadows, created by the scattered lamplights through the shaded streets.
There was... at least someone who wasn't afraid.
A few, without protection, other than their somewhat unsettling figure, and ghostly cloak's hood.
One 'd wonder... what does that commission entail?
Face... their own carelessly lonesome solicitor
What was, nobody's business - had been facing storm.

(Am i doing this right O_O?)

Silly - yes =) You can also add a few words to connect the ideas; I've purposefully left out most that indicate a transition of ideas (and, but, however, even though, etc) - you can notice how both Mynx and Peredhil added them when they felt the need to.

 

Btw, in any of the open activities you are free to post more than once; these are usually not meant for more than fun and a way to practice skills ;-)
