Yesterday I gave ya'll the prologue, well parts of it, because I said nothing about the many, many hours I spent shaving my face and every nook and cranny of my body. In some hard-to-reach places I even had to beg for assistance by an unnamed hair-remover. But let's forget about those traumatic moments now, suffice it to say that it takes some pain to be pretty.
Guykita, Butchette and the radiant Bocquerelle arrived to the venue on the specified time only to find that we were the only three in full drag, well except for Andy Long and his beautiful husbands, Story and Sutry. Not only that but - to add disaster to discomfort - it turned out there was an alpha layer on the ballroom floor that made Butchette's and my amazing gowns from Paris Metro disappear.
"Alpha on alpha, just doesn't work, as every noob knows!", said Butchette (or something to that effect) as we moved on to the stage (which was non-alpha).

Isn't it amazing what can be accomplished with highlights and lowlights? Just look at Butchette's wonderful bosom, who would think that if you saw him from the side he was as flat chested as he always is.

Poor little Pieni, was threatened by Butchette to be skinned and made into shoes. Brave little Pieni was not frightened by the bully because - as I was told later -
"Lol he wuld have been in real trouble then. I has sharp teethies and twelve protective uncles. AND aunties and cousins. Hehe".
After a grueling two hour period eventually more and more people started showing up in the requested attire, although some were still not confident enough.

We even had the pleasure of being joined by the renowned SecondLife
performance artist SaveMe Oh for a while (before she was kicked out
for creating lag with her sheep and meadows rezzed all over the ballroom) |

A dazzling beauty whose name I am afraid I have forgotten.
I am not even sure if she was in drag or is a woman. |

So fun to see you all up close. I miss a picture of Guyke though up close. You all looked like you had a wonderful time. :)
ReplyDeleteYou can see a close up of Guykita in the previous post, dahliiink! ;)
DeleteAre you sure SaveMe is a drag or a woman, buddy?
ReplyDeleteA drag of a woman I fear
ReplyDeleteThank you for answering Apmels loaded question yourself, SaveMe, I was going to say "SaveMe is all sexes and none, she merely is!"
