Bonus side story; a game of telephone

(Aesmo) Hey Fesmo, please pass the following message to the next Esmo you see; 'We got another client, this time it's art. It is supposed to be a blue billed bird made of meteor coral. You may trade all 7 carat gems or whatever cash we still have to fund the piece. The deadline is in 3 years, though I doubt he'll be patient, so please do not procrastinate. I will be busy so instead you're in charge.'

...

(Fesmo) Hey! Desmo! I got a message from mom for everyone; 'We got another client, this time it's art. It is supposed to be a blue built bird made of meteor coral. You may trade all 7 carat gems or whatever cache we still have to fund the piece. The deadline is in 3 years, though I doubt he'll be patient, so please do not procrastinate. I will be busy, so instead you're in charge.' You got that?

(Desmo) I think I got it. Blue built bird, right?

(Fesmo) Yeah. Also, pass the message on to anyone you see. I'll start in the meantime.

...

(Desmo) Tesmo, there's something everyone needs to know. Pass this message on if you see anyone else; 'We got an other client, this time it's art. It is supposed to be a blue built bird made of meatier coral. You may trade all 7 carat gems or whatever cache we still have to fund the piece. The deadline's in 3 years, though I doubt he'll be patient, so please do not procrastinate. I will be busy, so instead you're in charge.' You got it?

(Tesmo) Er, I'm a bit busy at the moment. But I think I got all of it. Just to check, the deadline is 3 years?

(Desmo) Yep! Remember to tell anyone you see the same message... I feel like there's an easier way to do this.

(Tesmo) I heard Nesmo is working on something that might help.

...

(Tesmo) Iesmo, a message for you and everyone else. 'We got an other client, it's timed its art. It is supposed to be a blue built burred of meatier choral. You may trade all carrots or whatever cache we still have to fund the peace. The deadline's in 3 years, though I doubt he'll be patient, so peas do not procrastinate. I will be busy, sowing stead your charge.'

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

(Iesmo) ...hm? sorry, only got half of that. Can I write it down to remember it better?

(Tesmo) Yeah, no problem. Also, remember to spread it in case anyone still hasn't heard about it.

(Iesmo) Got it... Um, what's with the weird grammar?

(Tesmo) I was a bit distracted, and didn't want to assume the wrong articles, but you get the gist, right?

(Iesmo) Yeah... I think?

...

(Iesmo) Besmo, did you hear about the art thing?

(Besmo) What art thing? No one told me anything like that.

(Iesmo) It's part of a message that's been going around; 'We got an other client, it's timed its art. It's supposed to be a bee blew built burred meatier choral. You may trade all carrots or whatever cache we still have to fund the peace. The dead line sin of 3 years, though I doubt hell be patient, sow peas do not procrastinate. I will be busy, sowing stead your charge.'

(Besmo) Is that some sort of riddle?

(Iesmo) I'm... not sure. Just got told to tell everyone I meet about it.

(Besmo) Weird. Well, I'll share it around. Hopefully it isn't anything important.

...

(Besmo) Jesmo, have you heard the riddle yet?

(Jesmo) Riddle? Do tell please.

(Besmo) It went something like; 'We got an otter client, it's timed its art. It's supposed to be a bee blown, built burred, meatier choral. Yew may trade all carrots for whatever cached weave, they still have to fund the peace. The dread line sin of thee years, though I doubt hell be patient, sow peas do not procrastinate. I will be busy, sowing stead your charge.'

(Jesmo) ...I feel like there's two separate riddles in one here. I'll try and figure it out with Kesmo.

...

(Aesmo) Alright, I'm back! How's the progress?

(Fesmo) I got some meteorite, and it only costed a single ruby!

(Desmo) Wait, meteor? Oh... whoops. I guess we'll be having elephant for lunch then.

(Tesmo) You spent a ruby? I thought we were using carrots?

(Fesmo) Why would we use carrots to fund a bird statue?

(Iesmo) What bird statue? I only heard about a bee!?

(Besmo) ...so not an otter riddle then. Got it.

(Kesmo) Hey mom, me and Jesmo need help solving a riddle!

(Aesmo) What is it?

(Kesmo) 'Wig on an otter client, it's timed its art. It supposed a bee blown, built burred, meatier choral, yet yew may trade all carrots, for what every cached leaves still have to fund the peace. The dread line sin of sea ears, though I doubt hell be patient, sow peas do not procrastinate. Owl be busy, sowing stead your charge.'

(Aesmo) ...Cesmo, what the fuck did you tell them this time?

(Cesmo) It wasn't me this time! Cesmo was too busy procrastinating building a blue billed bird! But I did spend some cash for supplies. Everything just needs to be built!

...

(Aesmo) Well, at least you got it correct. Who told you?

(Cesmo) Told? This is my personal project. What, did someone else ask for a blue billed bird made of meteor coral? Weirdo.

(Aesmo) :/
