story - Forget the freehand red circles - it's a freehand rebus! - Clue Twenty Eight


<<---First clue
<--Previous clue





This is an entry in the 26th Fortnightly Topic Challenge.




You speak the password. The entire space shudders, and the wall that you were leaning on open, spilling you headfirst into... an art museum? There are all of the pictures from the previous Clues there, but you ignore those. You focus on the new ones, which appear to be freehand drawn on the computer:

You look around for a place to enter the answer. Finally, you see a door on the other side of the room, with the now-familiar keypad.



You cross the room and type in...




Next clue--->



Answer



The answer is



Tungsten.



First




This looks like a smiley. So, may be it;s STICKING TONGUE OUT.



Second



Could be Parseltongue (Snakes language)



Third



This could be either number 10 or Tally Marks.




So the answer is



Tungsten. i.e. Two tongues and a ten.





OP's intended solving


The first image



This is indeed sticking it's tongue out. So that's tongue, or tung.




Second image



This is a picture of a snake, with a question mark for what it says. SO that's s.



Third



These are 10 tally marks, so ten.



All together, that's




tungsten.
