Theater of the Mind: Kickin it old school.

*blows the dust of FA journal*
This one came to me a while back and I've just not had the time to type it out. It's a actually a 2 parter starring the character Sid from Lizard Beth's (not sure if she has an FA) comic Broken Plot Device. You see Sid imagines himself a pirate of sorts. Here we find him in a pirates world (unlike in Liz's comic) when something odd happens...
*Frame 1*
Sid is dressed 'piratey' and crossing swords with another man.
Sid: "You've put up quite a spirited defense Governor but now is the time for parlay."
Governor: "If you think you bested me then you're sorely mistake Senor Sid. For I just started to...."
*Frame 2*
All the sudden the Governor can no longer be seen and in the background is a giant bold word saying "AXED!". There is a trail of blood hanging in the air from where his head used to be sloping suddenly to the left a bit then down. The handle of the short-handled, single blade axe can be seen sticking up from below the frame. Sid is still in his sword fighting stance but looks horrified with his mouth agape.
*Frame 3*
Sid is still looking shocked as a fat, bearded and horn helmeted Viking walks past (going right to left), grabbing his axe as he goes without looking at Sid or his victim.
Sid: "Oh my God!"
*Frame 4*
The Viking now goes from left to right with his axe on his back, a bag of loot over his left shoulder and an unconscious woman in 1800's garb over his right. There is now smoke now billowing from the left hand of the frame.
Viking: "Rape and pillage aren't just turns of phrase......noob."
*Frame 5*
Sid is now looking angry and shouting at the Viking who is now off frame right.
Sid: "I'm not a noob!"
Viking: "Kids these days. Gonna give sea raiding a good name."
