[through the shadows]

Climbing the old house's facade was one of the easier tasks, his undead muscles pumped and his thin, pale fingers digging into the plaster as he eventually hauled himself over the balcony's railing, where he paused for the length of a heart's beat. With his head tilted, he inhaled deeply to catch it again, this incredible scent that had lured him out of his hideout and into the night, this bittersweet perfume of a life calling him with its burning wish to be ended in one last outburst of passion. As the smell coiled against his nostrils once more, so seductively mingled with the delicious throbs of a weak heart, he walked towards the tall balcony doors and placed his hand against the cold glass. Of course he'd answer this one's silent prayers for redemption. In the very end, he'd always been a... helpful person.

Free stuff in this post! The lovely hair with its attached bowler hat is a Halloween-related group gift from Dura that comes in a million of colours and in both resize- and unscripted versions. A likewise stunning gift for the girls has been set out as well, so make sure to have a look in store. The skin I'm wearing is a generous group gift from Tableau Vivant and is a gloomified version of Marilyn, their latest release. You can either grab it from the group's archive or in store, too. Not free, but certainly awesome looking - [Pumpkin]'s mesh tweed coat, which is just the right thing for grey autumn- and icy winter days - scarf attached!

Ever wondered where all those metal heads in SL are hiding? They already seem to be a rather rare species in RL, at least where I'm living - and if we're talking about those people whose outfit tells you what music they might like. It doesn't seem to be much different in Second Life, so I was having some trouble to dress accordingly to my (musical) mood when I recently re-discovered my love for Black Metal. Thankfully, there is certainly no lack of awesome leather pants and net shirts in our little world, so the basics were there, and I remembered the Cake hair I'd bought ages ago and which matched the look perfectly, but... the rest?

While looking through old screenshots, my eyes caught a pair of spiked armbands I was wearing on one, and after some research, I also remembered the store's name: [SP] - Spider Productions, established in 2005. This shop does not only sell spikes, studs, and everything that looks awesome when you're going for a darker look, but also stunning hybrid avatars (such as dragons), armor, jewellery and accessories, weapons and much more! And they also have a bunch of Lucky Boards out, in case you want to check on their quality first. The boots I'm wearing in this post, for example, are one of the Lucky Board prices and greatly textured, plus: easy to resize. A:S:S's latest release, the more-than-awesome Count-corpse paints (you can choose from a variety of 10, or simply grab the fatpack) added the final touch to my outfit.

[shirts for free]

It's hunting-time, and April is slowly coming to an end, so I thought I'd share some stunning freebie tops with you before they're all gone!



To the very left is sf design's freebie for the month of April, a loose sitting button down that comes in tucked, untucked, vest and shirt only options and prim-cuffs and collar.

Following are two shirts you can grab for free at The Seasons Hunt. The [NSD] Bonjour Tank (I'm also wearing [NSD]'s other prize in the pictures, a pair of nicely made Gaucho pants - perfect for spring and summer!) has a sculpted bottom with a plain and graphic option. Alphavillain's contribution is this fresh white and light-blue striped longsleeve that instantly made me crave for ice-cream at the sea front.

On the right-hand side, I'm wearing Vitamen's April-freebie, a tank top you get in 4 variants: the one shown and in a sheer version, and the same shirt with a golden print, also in both solid and sheer and in all imaginable layers.


1) sf design - grandad shirt with vest blue (free)
2) [NSD] - BonJour Tank-Blue/ Seasons Hunt (free)
3) Alphavillain - Nautical Shirt for Seasons Hunt Spring (free)

[indigo man]

Underground yard
Lilly white

He's the charted lover
An indigo an indigo man
He's the black of the night
An indigo, an indigo man
Watching your underground yard
An indigo, an indigo man

Morning comes
Lilly white man
Your holy water



Darker than as morning fine
Watch the steps of an indigo man
Wants torment your secret lie
Open to hold your lilly white hand

Longing to mix your holy water
Romancing on his planet mars
With the clearing of the sun
Making love amongst the stars

Where where go

[lotn: leaving the crime scene]

He'd overdone it a little on Halloween... but there had been just too many willing necks within his reach, too many camouflaged, drunken smiles -not- to embrace the opportunity, and so the one with the bleached curls had invited no less than a dozen souls to dance with death. Unfortunately, he'd been a bit too eager with some of them... and two nights later, he considered the air in the city getting too thin and the police too nosy. Time to grab his bike and leave to never come back... at least not until next Halloween.

[fashionably late]

As usual, he was fashionably late with his posts, staring at the laptop like it was the well of his lack of creativity. While others already blogged their last pictures, he was still trying to come up with a fitting title - and the overwhelming drowsiness didn't really help in this case either...


...possibly, another cup of steaming hot coffee and some relaxation exercises would help. He'd simply have to wait and hope for the best that his muse would kiss him soon.

Outfit: tomoto, fleur ete - chou

This dress is an other gift from Mimi's choice. And well the undies go well with the tomoto dress.
