    Nope. There's more to it than each pic standing for a word. It's more like a narrative in 2 pics.

    Is the right answer. I'm sorry to inform you it's now your turn to post a riddle.

    I hope I haven't posted the same thing before, it's one of my favorite sayings. Anyway...the pillow is the most metaphorical image. Could have been many things...

    Is there anything you could give for a hint, Sar1n? Something that would lead us, but not give it away?

    Nope. "throw" is correct though.

    I feel cheap taking realm's answer and tweaking it in such a small way, but I would say "Throw a life line".

    And you make me feel cheap for having to say you're correct Especially because you're going the minimalist way (I tried to depict "throw someone a life line")

    Your turn

    Ah, so I was doubly cheap. How embarrassing!

    Anyway, I am swamped with work right now, so if realm wants to take the turn (something to which I think he is more than entitled), then feel free! If there isn't something new up in the next couple days, I'll post something myself though.

    Feel free to take the turn Kilo, you got this one fair and square, I don't think I'll be able to post one for a bit.

    Dang. I too have not had much time to put something together, and right now I'm busy, and tomorrow we're leaving to visit in-laws for a couple weeks. The turn is therefore open to whoever might want to take it!
