June and I can both edit the posts, so feel free to pm either of us if you'd like something added or changed on NTWF.
I'm doing a series about the MD crew helping Rohane after he's been trapped in his own nightmares. It's 5 parts so far out of Uhhhhh?

Proposed title of entry: Sir Jeran, Tomato Knight Type of entry: Short story Short description: Jeran and two other knights of Meridell investigate tomato plants going rogue in Meri Acres Farm. Collaborator? N
I considered doing a series as well (The Shadow over Trestin) but since I'm doing an 8-part series for April Fool's which may punch through this collab, I've decided to enter my Tomato Games-inspired story.

What does 'surreal' mean?

Surreal- marked by the intense irrational reality of a dream also : unbelievable, fantastic.
Something bizarre and difficult to explain. So like, if suddenly all the Snorkles grew wings and started to escape their pens. Or something like that?

After trying to think something up, I think I finally found an article idea in an unlikely place: Proposed Title of Entry: Surreal Concoctions of the Cooking Pot Type of entry: Article Short Description: Neopia is filled with surreal places such as a fountain that paints your Neopet any Colour, a living tree that gives charity, and a satellite that creates random events. But one overlooked place is the Cooking Pot on Mystery Island and the many bizarre recipes (and results of said recipes). I dive on in to the surreal concoctions of the Cooking Pot. Collaborator? Y/N (If yes, UN): No Seriously, look it up, the Cooking Pot has some weird recipes. Though at the same time I think we could have even more (maybe even make recipes for existing items and update recipes to allow for different items to be used). But that's another subject for another day.

Duke Pikachu , wow, great idea! What a coincidence - yesterday I was thinking about Kitchen Quest :D : an article about if you use the ingredients required by the Underwater chef, will you get the same as mentioned in the name of the recipe. If not, what kind of meal will you get? What are odds that it'd classify as Gross Food? Does he use all the ingredients or does he save something up for later, maybe even eat himself? (I mean, despite working hard for Mumbo Pango, at some time he has eat as well, right?)
Well, I thought it'd be an interesting topic for an article, not specially for this collab. I hope someone will research it (if it isn't already done; didn't check NT). I'm not going to do it - my mind goes error when I think about mixing random Neopian ingredients for the recipe. x_x One surreal thing is that my name is both in article and short story sections, although I didn't apply. Too bad I can't write about it, as it happened outside of Neopets.com :D I'm still waiting for a miracle... O_o

Too bad I can't write about it, as it happened outside of Neopets.com I'm still waiting for a miracle... Looking up JN's guide on Kitchen Quest, sadly it doesn't look like it'll be as simple as that. Apparently the name of the dish he's making is randomly generated with the items requested also randomly chosen. So it's very likely that the ingredients and dish name will not match as it's all random and it'll only be coincidence if some recipes do match. But while that idea doesn't quite work out, it may be fun to look through the various food shops & restaurants to see what dishes they serve and figure out if you can make it in real life & would/should it classify as Gross Food.

I see my name in the bookkeeping post. I hadn't intended on submitting anything, but I can probably write up some article about Fyora's garden or the castle in general.

Certainly a lot of possibility there with both being likely the center of the Faerieland's magic. * For the Faerie Castle you could easily give it a Hogwarts feel (moving staircases, animated paintings, hidden rooms and passages, etc.). * Fyora's Garden you could always include the ever-popular hedge maze and have it act like the final maze in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire or, possibly even better, the labyrinth in the movie Labyrinth. * And let's not forget the Hidden Tower. Invisible from the outside (though still interactable to many unfortunate flying Neopets to "find" it) and in the Darkest Faerie PS2 game showed the staircase part of it was a puzzle where you'd forever climb up/down the stairs unless you followed the direction a sword that was being held by statues were pointing. * Faerie Castle's Library is a magical Library said to contain every book ever written "except one", the one possibly being "Biting Book" which is a book only becomes if it was taken from Faerie Castle's Library and not returned; hence why it's the only book not in the library. * There was also that one time there was a direct portal to Altador.

Thanks! All of these are certainly great ideas. I went ahead and titled my article “A Giant Castle on the Ground” which references the first words on the Explore page entry about Faerieland.
