No more butterflies

Look now, look all around, there’s no sign of life
Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth

The air is rancid with death and rubble dust. It’s been many years since the last time human steps hurried along these roads, now broken and silent. There are no more voices bartering among the ruins of what was the market, no more pigeons pecking at bread crumbs outside of the empty shell that was a bakery, no more children chasing a dog or singing a nursery rhyme on their way from the shattered remains of a school. There are no more dogs chasing birds, no more birds, no more butterflies.

Head: LOGO M.A.B.E.L-6 Cybernetic Head + Skin – Alabaster

The super cute Mabel head, in a cool cyberpunk style. It comes with several skin tones for body and face, BOM and EvoX compatible, with animations and a lot of nice customization options. This version includes the amazing head piece, unrigged.

Boots: [Drunken Brokkr] Harabanar Boots (NEW at Engine Room: Mar 20th – Apr 20th)

These boots were my steampunk dream, and a lot of fun to make. As usual with my brand, the model has a lot of attention to detail and cool details, and not to brag but my textures also rock. There’s a piston on the heel rigged to work as realistically as possible in SL. They match our popular HarabanaR Arm Guard. Several female and male bodies supported!

Arm guard: [Drunken Brokkr] Harabanar Arm Guard (SALE at Engine Room: Mar 20th – Apr 20th)

The awesome arm guard that you know and love. If you didn’t catch it before, now it’s your chance to wear it with our new boots.

Quote: Planet Earth, song by Duran Duran
Prose by me.

Sinister

What shape was this who came to us,
With basilisk eyes so ominous,
With mouth so sweet, so poisonous,
And tortured hands so pale?
We saw her wavering to and fro,
Through dark and wind we saw her go;
Yet what her name was did not know;
And felt our spirits fail.

And this we heard: “Who dies for me,
He shall possess me secretly,
My terrible beauty he shall see,
And slake my body‘s flame.
But who denies me cursed shall be,
And slain, and buried loathsomely,
And slimed upon with shame.”

Quotes: “The Vampire”, poem by Conrad Aiken (1889-1973)

Dark creatures

“I had a dream, which was not all a dream.
The bright sun was extinguish’d, and the stars
Did wander darkling in the eternal space,
Rayless, and pathless, and the icy earth
Swung blind and blackening in the moonless air”

“And War, which for a moment was no more,
Did glut himself again: a meal was bought
With blood, and each sate sullenly apart
Gorging himself in gloom: no love was left;
All earth was but one thought—and that was death“

Quotes: “Darkness”, poem by Lord Byron (1788-1824)

Ruled by magic

Hearing music from the deepest forest
Songs as a seduction of sirens
The elf-folk is calling me
[…]
It’s the honesty of these worlds
Ruled by magic and mighty swords
That makes my soul long for the past
Elvenpath

Let me create a past that never happened, a world of heroes and magic where I can be without limit. Today let me be the brave warrior who never lost a battle and instills fear in the hearts of their foes; tomorrow I might be the delicate princess who lights up a room with the sweetness of her smile. And who cares if it’s not real, just let me dream…

As I return to my room
And as sleep takes me by my hand
Madrigals from the woods
Carry me to Neverland
In this spellbound night
The world’s an elvish sight

Quotes: “Elvenpath”, song by Nightwish

Beyond the veil

What do you want from me? Why don’t you run from me?
What are you wondering? What do you know?
Why aren’t you scared of me? Why do you care for me?
When we all fall asleep, where do we go?

We’re that queasy feeling in the stomach when you’re all alone in a dark room that you don’t know. You felt it at least once, you remember, that slight prickle of unease, not knowing what it is that you don’t see and might be there. Are there walls, will I stumble on something, will I fall in an abyss, is the edge of a knife 3 millimeters from my skin? The veil of darkness, the veil of uncertainty, the thing that comes visit our dreams every now and then.

Once again, we prepare for the rebirth of the twisted, cruel, sadistic lament cubes ready to quench our thirst for the most iconic hunt in Second Life: TWISTED HUNT!

This round we venture beyond the veil, we are more than ready to pull our hair, gnash our teeth, and scream out obscenities while we search for these pesky little cubes. In a particularly naughty move, this round the cubes have a transparent background. As a store owner, I love it, and I made sure you will hate our guts while searching for them. As a hunter, I’m not ready! But I’m SO ready…

Teleport yourself to the to the Twisted Hunt Headquarters and let the insanity begin!

Wishful thinking

It’s time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together to release the pressure
We need a holiday

You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down
It’s time to celebrate
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together, we can make things better
We need a holiday

Making my stand

“You’ve gone too far this time”
But I’m dancing on the valentine
I tell you somebody’s fooling around
With my chances on the dangerline

I’ll cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand

Quotes: “The Reflex”, song by Duran Duran

Even the dead cry

Some wounds never heal
Some tears never will
Dry for the unkind
Cry for mankind

Here in your darkness, shrouded by misery I wait for you. Here inside your nightmares, cuddled by anguish I haunt you. When everything else dies and all memory fades away, I will remain. I am the helpless witness of your relentless path to destruction, and for your fate I weep.

Need to understand
No need to forgive
No truth no sense left to be followed

Quotes: “Silence”, song by PJ Harvey

Inside your mind

From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone.

From the sun that ’round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold,
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by,
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
