LE FAY DANS LA NUIT

I'm inspired to go dark, dark, dark by the fabulous Glam Affair skin from the Platinum Hunt. I put together a quick Urban look with menswear from the Make Him Over Hunt. In particular I had a good laugh trying on the pants on my male avatar ... it comes with a sculpted "bulge" that is a little TOO anatomically correct. (Hell no I'm not modeling that thing LOL.)

Dusted off some yummy brown Hoorenbeek boots from my closet. You know how there are some things you buy that you still love a year later? Like that.

Jewels and nails, feminine and dangerous ...

... Okay one more, to give you a better look at the new cat's eyes from Poetic Colors. As well as several beautiful colors of irises, They come with light or dark eyewhites, and prim eye reflections. Just lovely.

THE WANNABE VAMPYRE HUNTER

I'm gonna bag me a monster tonight.

I've been hangin' out in the cemetery all afternoon. But its getting close now.

With a fresh grave ready, there ought to be something bad stirring around.

But I sure hate the last half hour of waiting.

Just for laughs, today I am modeling a bare chested rockstar-wannabe vamp hunter. I laugh now, but I remember when I was a kid I was scared of things like vampires from watching the movies. But the monster hunters looked pretty stupid to me. Why didn't they just leave some donated IV bloodbags for the vampires? Why didn't they weld on steel collars that keep the vampire from biting their necks? Why did the women in these movies always trip over something when they were running away? Why do all the victims have to be so darn stupid all the time?!?

This outfit is mostly courtesy of the Make Him Over Hunt which is running through August 20. For more information, including a Teleport List and pictures of some of the Hunt Prizes, you may visit their website or join their inworld group. At the starting point you can also pick up a hint list.

HAVE YOU SEEN MY QUILL?

Not all of the students at Hogwarts are good looking. Not all of us are Quidditch players. Some of us are shy. Some of us have second-hand togs. Some of us don't have a date for the Yule Ball.

Ravenclaw students are often the "nerds" of the wizard world. Smart or not, a lot of us don't really come into our own until after we have left school.

Have you seen my quill?

This is one bandwagon on which I am pleased to jump. There are plenty of Pottermaniacs hidden in closets around the metaverse, and with the rest of them I am looking forward to finding out if the rumour is true ... will there finally be a beautifully well-constructed Hogwarts in Second Life? I can't wait!! *swoons*

THINGS YOU DON'T WANT TO MEET

They're not even here to feed me or strike a bargain. They will pay for that.

I charged about the island, looking for the foolish witch or necromancer who summoned me.

Darkness and the remnants of bloody rituals everywhere. The smell is making me so hungry ...

Ahh, THERE you are.

Really you should click on this last photo and take a good look. the lavalike white heat, rows of teeth, and the mucus and drool hanging from the roof of my mouth are impressive. And the last thing you will ever see!

Every now and again I just have to visit Grendel's Children to see the non-human avatars. If you have never visited, Grendel's has a huge store in the sky, and four ground-level sims for roleplay below. If you would like to be a dragon, a steampunk spider, or a cyber replicant, Grendel's has many inespensive avatars that are usually modifiable if you like to customise. The Insanity Demon Avatar that I am wearing includes a HUD that lets me fight, breathe flame, growl ... worth many return visits.

The Realm of Black Thorn Adult-themed Roleplay area on the Sharkbite Sim is a nice build. In the landing area, read the rules notecard, and if you decide to walk into the "adult" roleplay area, you enter at your own risk. Bwahaha.
