“Clown House”
Garnet and Damon found the perfect place to hide from the militia group.
As a result of the militia training, mentally they were grown men, but in reality they were still kids. They had to earn money for food, housing and stay hidden for a while. Before they were kidnapped, they always entertained the neighborhood children with their comical acts. Clowning around came natural to them.
The clown house was quite unique. The hand served as a hallway leading into the house. Each ear was a bedroom and the eyes were windows. The nose was used for storage. The mouth was a living-room and kitchen area with teeth-like curtains. There was a red carpet shaped like a tongue and in the back of the head was a small bathroom.
They had an ideal camouflage house, camouflage work, and earned enough income to live off of.

Reflections Of Life's Journey 
Even though the clowns in your story are the good guys, I’m still a bit creeped out. The idea of the clown house is great, but something about living in a giant head scares me… Nicely done, though!

Yes, I agree. My choice of a house certainly would not be living in a clown head. HA! HA! Thank you for commenting.

What a creative and fun clown house! Nice job on the continuation story. I hope they are able to stay completely out of the militia. Great job Jessie!

Thank you Joy! I wasn’t sure how I would tie the story in when I saw the clown pictures, but I managed to fit it in.

Very descriptive and creepy! I feel a strong urge to create this house

OUCH!!! Now, that is what I call scary! Actually, I believe the entire militia group belongs in that type of house…do you need any tenants?

Wonderfully described!
It is very clever how you incorporated the clowns into a story which has and is currently happening across the world.

great take on the prompt – I actually found the description of the clown house more creepy than the clowns themselves, and then Izzy’s take on it above just brought it to life!

Thank you for commenting . You are right about clown houses…and I’ve never been a big fan of them. I suppose I could live in one if I had no other options. The first creepy thing that happened though and I would be out of there in a flash!

A great continuation of last week’s story, Jessie. At least they found somewhere to live/hide – even if it was a rather unusual house! It was very enterprising of them to put the house to such good use and actually earn enough from ‘clowning around’ to live on. How long will it last, I wonder? No doubt next week’s episode will see them facing further problems in a completely new setting … Well done. 🙂

Thank you so much . 😊 I’m wondering myself what kind of photo prompt we will have to work with. I’ m going to try to keep the series going for a while if I can. It adds to the challenge.

I was wondering if anyone was actually to use the clown house prompt and it worked really well with your story. No militia this time and we get to see an insight of their past :). This story is really going along, looking forward to the next part

Thank you very much! I’m glad it worked. I always wonder what is coming next and how I can tie the prompt and story series together. I was a little hesitant about the clowns prompt, but my mind just started coming up with different ideas!
