Roleplaying

At the moment I am engaged in a roleplay at Pandemonium. It's about Angels, Demons and Mortals, the Demons are using and abusing the poor sinful Mortals and my job is to save their immortal souls and guide them to heaven. 

Problem is, many of the mortals don't want to be saved because they enjoy the BDSM roleplay... so our job is cut out for us.

Anyhoo, I have updated to a new LeLutka Head and a EvoX face (you can see the pores), as well as a Belleza Jake body. Don't I look stunning?

I haven't engaged in roleplaying before to any significant extent, so it still feels a bit strange but I am sure I'll get used to emoting and such after awhile.

Comfortable In One's Avatar

Many in SecondLife find it both rewarding and pleasing to constantly play with their avatars appearances, I am quite the opposite. I have an urge - a basic need - to find an appearance that I feel comfortable in. Once I have found it, I only make minor adjustments, like getting a new haircut, from time to time.

After the first two years of experimentation I had found a look I was comfortable in for five wonderul years, And then came The Mesh Revolution and the ground opened up beneath me and I was thrown into the bottomless pit of doubt. I started out kicking and screaming and denying I wanted anything to do with mesh - ever!

Why should I change my body to fit into mesh-clothes? "Clothes should fit people not the other way around!"

Well, I was convinced about the benefits of mesh-clothing by a friend I had at the time. Then came the mesh-bodies and heads and everything other mesh, and then on top of all that Bento... *sigh* *vomit*  *weep* *kick* *scream* *yell*

"l e g s" by JJ Goodman

The mesh revolution in SecondLife has really been overwhelming, challenging and difficult for me, despite a bit of fun along the way. I have tried out mesh-bodies, mesh-heads, faces, hands and other appendages (Yes, I do mean mesh-dicks!). Some were awful (like my TMP head & face) others have felt better, but still not quite like me - or rather how I want to project myself - until just about a week ago.

With a new face, new eyes, new eyebrows a semi-new haircut and a bit of fiddling with the settings of my Signature Gianni mesh-body (under the helpful and supportive supervision of my brother JJ Goodman) it finally came together.

I am finally comfortable in my avatars appearance again, and you will probably not see any major changes for the next couple of years. Hopefully there is no new revolution for awhile at least!

Totes Adorbs!

Today Tomais, JJ, Wayne, Holter and I went scouting for a setting with craggy cliffs for a photo my hubby was going to do.

Somehow, we happened to make a stop at the Chouchou sim, which of course has no cliffs at all, just water and a beautiful - although rather harsh - Windlight.

I thought it would be a good time to take a picture to show off my new appearance, especially the legs and calves. Totes adorbs, dontcha agree?

Pocket Size Bock: "Is My Ass Too Big?"

The new and much improved Bock is now shorter than he has ever been since he was a noob in SecondLife. He is now down to a height of only 2,15 meters (7’1”).

Morning Swim

I love my new shape and the shorter height, especially what the shrinkage has done to the shape of my legs and calves, which are now "absolutely delicious" according to myself. Nonetheless, I worry that my ass may - possibly - look too big.

A Silver Daddy Is Born

Mark this day in your calendars, readers, because today hell froze over!

Today my much, much, much, older brother Dejerrity Mycron took a giant leap and moved from 2006 to 2017 in a matter of a few hours with a big smile on his face.

SecondLife has finally and at long last achieved a Meshified Dej. He has acquired a Signature Gianni Mesh body and a Catwa Daniel Bento mesh head.

Now doesn't he look simply adorable, even if we just started? Give him a little more time and he will find his new look and the young men in SL will be drooling in his trail. (On the wall over the fireplace you see a portrait of my sweet brother as he has looked since 2006 until today.)

All For A Wailing Kitten

Ever since I introduced ya'll to my new appearance with my Bento mesh head from Catwa, there have been repeated, very loud and disgruntled wailings coming from a certain young cat.

He's claimed that my new look is too strict, severe and even goes so far as to call it "evil-looking". Well, we can have none of that, because as you all know I am an absolute hug-whore and he refuses to hug me.

With the assistance of my loving husband Tomais and my trusted brother JJ, I have yet again update my appearances. There will be no more modifications for a while, so deal with this Nikolai!.

My Husband - New, Improved & Updated

"Tomais" by Tomais Ashdene

It's amazing really, how we as residents of SecondLife can update our appearances with the latest developments by Linden Lab and the content creators.

Following the introduction of mesh a few years ago, most of us got new mesh bodies and some even got mesh heads.

After the launch of Bento recently, my Tomais and I waited eagerly for the release of the Bento enabled Catwa head.

Although Tomais has been playing around with other mesh heads, I was still skeptical and holding back. (I'm not as willing as others to change my appearances radically.)

The picture shows my husband's new look with the Catwa head. Not that he wasn't good looking before, but now he is definitely both divine and mouthwatering!

Bock 3.0

This is the first draft of the new Bock (Bock 3.0) in my new reshaped Catwa Bento mesh head and with my latest hair.

For comparison I am posting a picture of me in my old hair with the Catwa Bento head.

I may need to do some more work on the eyes, brows and lips but so far I am rather pleased with the results.

Butter Butts, Bento Balls & Mesh Heads

I would like to thank my friend and co-blogger Rusty Redfield for the tip concerning the butt enhancers for the Niramyth mesh body.

I hadn't heard about it before, but it really does have a certain something - je ne sais quoi - about it.

Marketplace: Butt add-on for the Niramyth Aesthetic Advanced body

The next thing I would like to introduce to you are the new Bento Balls - or ball sack rather - that are compatible with the Aeros cock "Magnus". They jiggle, wiggle, swing from side to side and roll-about. They are really exciting to watch, although I have decided not to get them for myself. 

A very nifty detail is that you don't have to tint the balls at all, they automatically take on the color you already have on your Magnus cock. (Doesn't work on other cocks from Aeros, not yet.)

Dem Bones, Dem Bones!

In the 3rd year of the almighty, wonderful and charming Ebbe Altberg (a k a Ebbe Linden), CEO of Linden Lab, the creative gods at the lab have - in close cooperation and collaboration with SecondLife content creators - achieved the revolutionary Bento Skeleton.

Both Linden Lab and Firestorm have now released viewers that are Bento compatible.

Bento is an extension of the SecondLife avatar skeleton whereby we get dozens of new bones to support rigging and animation and new attachment points.

The new skeleton, which is compatible with existing avatars, rigging and animation, gives creators the power to build more sophisticated avatars than ever before. The skeleton extensions include:

• 11 extra limb bones for wings, additional arms, or extra legs.
• 6 tail bones
• 30 bones in the hands (all 10 fingers!)
• 30 bones for facial expressions
• 2 other new bones in the head for animating ears or antennae
• 13 new attachment points associated with the new bones

What all this means is simply that our wonderful SecondLife content creators have gotten more and better tools to make things look, move and appear better and a greater range of customization to your own preferences and individuality. 

The GA Summerfest 2016 Starts Tomorrow

After the speech the opening party will follow at 5PM SLT with two live singers, Samm Quendra and Clyde Barrow, and after them the Romanum and Blue Ball parties.

Secret message to Tomais, should we perhaps drop our search for the perfect male mesh head temporarily to set up the Bock in SecondLife thing-a-magee...?

It's All Divos's Fault!

I blame Divos Titanium!

Clint Rogers by Juliio Coast

If the scoundrel had only shown the slightest bit of restraint or self control and not given in to the urge to show off his stunning new mesh head by posting an update on his profile on Facebook, my Tomais and I would have had a wonderful, calm and loving evening together.

Instead we were busy looking at - and trying out - almost every mesh head for men that are on sale. I think there are about 8-10, but I lost count somewhere. (Luckily I am not a woman, because then there would have been 80-100 different mesh heads to check out.)

Tomais who was multitasking as always, reading up about the various heads on blogs while trying them out. It became a tiny bit too much for him when I eagerly demanded his full attention and wanted him to look at little old me at the same time... The meanie snapped at me, can you believe it? Several times too. He is truly fortunate that I am indeed the most patient man in SecondLife, everyone has told me so repeatedly, otherwise I would have stuffed a mesh head or two down his throat or somewhere else where the sun wouldn't bleach them. Then again, I do love my man a lot and can understand if he gets short tempered when he is trying hard to solve our immediate issues while I just stand around and try to look pretty and babble on.

Well, I decided on getting the lovely LOGO mesh head.

And now I am going to be busy trying to update all my human outfits with the new head and skin.

Thank you so bloody much, Divos! And thank you also for showing us all how we can make our appearances better!
