Riddles

[Cutesie]

My mother says "mine".

I'm sorry if that's cheating.

 

[AuAL]

It is a mine. The moonlight through leaves was for one particular type of mine.

 

[Cutesie]

Don't wait for me to post another one. The pressure isn't what I need.

 

[AuAL]

Just to finish off the last - a silver mine. (I would have accepted mithril mine from LotR fans - that ties in well with moonlight - but let’s get real. Or rial, if you prefer.)

So:
A mine has veins of ore, it does not creep upon the earth but under it, veins of silver are hinted at with the “moonlight through leaves”, and what isn’t yours, is mine.

 

[AuAL]

I have another @Cutesie, if you want to see it.

Go ahead, please.

Dark but not dirty,
flapping but not fluttering,
some are people but I am not,
what cause do you have to find me.

A bat

 

[AuAL]

@1ForAll, sorry, no.

 

[AuAL]

Time for a clue?
Each line is a separate clue.

 

[AuAL]

Another clue to wake up to:
Read the last line aloud.

 

[1ForAll]

@AuAL we still might need another clue as seen by the lack of guesses so far, for members to give guesses that are more apt to be close to the correct answer than far apart. For instance my next guess would have been a penguin. The Pittsburgh Penguins are a hockey team. But, I know that is unlikely the answer.

Human penguins

Non human penguins

 

[1ForAll]

@FayetheAspie The reason why I think penguins may not be the answer though is because they (the animal penguins ) can be seen as dirty and smelly, yet they look clean in that image you posted and in the media whenever I see them

 

[FayetheAspie]

Either way, it is starting to appear as though we may never know
whether this was the answer or no.

 

[FayetheAspie]

This looks like a mix of penguin sample 2 and penguin sample 3. I mean it certainly resembles the bird type but the umbrella and monocle look really suspicious.

@AuAL

 

[AuAL]

Sorry, just woken up. (Posting from Australia.)
Not penguins.
Did anyone get an idea from saying the last line aloud?
Looks like I’m making a killing with this riddle. (That’s another clue.)

 

[AuAL]

If only I had a rooster to wake me earlier.

Yes, the Riddler . I meant the Penguin. You can tell I did not watch Batman much. I always got those 2 mixed up.
