Default Read in Between the Lines: A Story Game!

The rules are simple! All you have to do is tell a story...as a group! What do I mean? Each person can only post one word toward the story per post, and can't post again until 3 others have posted. Once someone thinks the sentence is done, end it with a period, and start a new one. Be sure to include the words from earlier posts so that we all know what's going on. It's been mentioned that some would like to not make it terribly silly, and instead actually tell a story, so keep that in mind!
Actually, there are two games going on in this thread. Hence the read in between the lines title. Congratulations on noticing!
Example: The
Each page of the thread, there will be a subject you will have to create a pun for at the top (or closest participating post)
Next post: The cat
I'll choose the first one, but anyone can pick the topic so long as they are the first to post it at the top. Be sure your puns are in white text so the other players don't catch on!
Next Post: The cat ate
So to start us off, lets have the first subject be Geology puns. Anything having to do with rocks!
And so on. It should be easy to just copy the story and add a word to your next post. Don't quote anything, just copy, paste, and post. Have fun!
Please one pun per post. Don't want to take them all!
Let's get started! - Once
I hope people don't take this one for Granite.
