A Day in the Life…

… of Seraphim Placebo, and, actually, only half of it, the second half, found Seraphim, once again, in another apocalyptic build…

ADITL

… she is actually beginning to find them slightly passe, no matter how good they are… after that, she took s4nura shopping, and brought her baby girl, Evie, too…

ADITL2

… when Seraphim and s4nura first arrived (Seraphim went back for Evie, who had woken in her display case, and couldn’t be teleported from it) there was a bland male avi standing in R2… something that looked instantly wrong… he spent several minutes perving at s4nura, then turned his attention on Seraphim for a few minutes… he was clearly only there to leer blatantly at the babes that come to R2… he vanished before Seraphim could say hi to him…

ADITL3

… then Seri took her girls down to Mopire city, below R2, one of Seri’s favourite places in SL…

ADITL4

… she led them around for a while, pontificating about stunning SL architecture, photography, and lighting, the girls politely pretending to be interested, until Evie told Seraphim her battery was at 20%. Seraphim was able to rez a charger for her girl, and get her on it, before it could auto-return, and s4nura and Seri watched Evie while she charged… Seraphim thinks Evie looks adorable when she is charging, even more cute and vulnerable than she usually looks…

ADITL5

… then there was some more exploring… Mopire City continues to boggle Seraphim’s mind, it is huge, and, usually, totally deserted… the quality of the build is stunning, yet it seems it is just someones work of love, there are no rentals, no shops, hardly ever any other avi’s, it baffles Seri. Then she took her girls to Memento mori…

ADITL6

… where, neither having been there before, both of them fell through the big gaps in the floor, which can’t be seen very easily, due to the ethereal lighting, and both had to be retrieved…

ADITL7

… the girls both decided this place was built to worship a piano…

ADITL8

… which, probably, it is.

 

Photo Competition

Seraphim has put up a few posters around her place…

PD

… they are for a portrait photo competition she is running…

PD2

… her friend, Pearl Grey, happened to be in Seraphim’s ‘Old Garden’ when Seri was putting the poster there…

PD3

… Pearl thought it was a fun thing Seraphim was doing.

Art Truck

A large truck and trailer have been skilfully parked at the bottom of Seraphim’s ‘Old Garden’… it’s the Bench Art Park ‘Art Truck’, a travelling exhibition space that shows the work of members of the ‘Bench Art Park’ group, a group Seraphim belongs to…

ArtTruck

… Seraphim has wanted to host the truck for quite a while, but only recently got around to setting the things in place that needed to be done for other people to place objects on her land…

ArtTruck2

… Seraphim’s sweet ‘Zombie Princess’, S4nura was the Art Trucks first non-member viewer, a few days after the truck had been set up, but still before it’s ‘opening’, tomorrow…

ArtTruck3

… S4nura even wore something suitable for an exhibition… something vastly less revealing than she normally wears…

ArtTruck4

… Seraphim told her she now looked like a ‘high-class hooker’ which, of course, is not an insult to S4nura, and probably fairly accurate…

ArtTruck5

… Seraphim and S4nura chatted amiably among the art works spilling from the back of the truck and into Seraphim’s ‘Old Garden’…

ArtTruck6

… talking about SL fashion, shopping and future photoshoots…

ArtTruck7

… Seraphim finds her beautiful, strange ‘Zombie Princess’ very easy to talk with, and always enjoys their time together.

Pink Bikini

Seraphim thought she’d see how she looked doing cheesecake…

PinkKini

… in her brand new pink bikini…

PinkKini2

… on a black muscle car…

PinkKini3

… parked outside her gallery…

PinkKini4

… in Jormundgandr…

PinkKini5

… in the fading evening light, under street lights…

PinkKini6

… she thinks she looked pretty good.

Ethereal

Seraphim visited Memento mori, for the first time, yesterday…

mementoMori

… she found the build, literally, fantastic, like something from Bruce Pennington’s imagination…

mementoMori2

… with amazing, intricate detail…

mementoMori3

… and breathtaking, soaring majesty…

mementoMori4

… truely ethereal…

mementoMori5

… and otherworldly.

Huggles

Seraphim has not seen her Evie for two weeks, because Evie’s human has been too busy to allow Evie any SL time. Seraphim has missed her a lot…

ES

… so, when Evie appeared, late last night, Seraphim was delighted to hug her baby, and didn’t want to let her go…

ES2

… so they spent the next hour snuggling…

ES3

… tangled in each others’ limbs…

ES4

… Seraphim couldn’t get close enough to her sweet little girl…

ES5

… delighting in her glossy skin…

ES6

… and her amazing, anime eyes…

ES7

… Seraphim, the alpha-predator, inhaled Evie’s plastic pheromones with her phenomenal alien smell receptors, almost wanting to consume her delicious baby…

ES8

… but content to lose herself in those gorgeous, trusting, violet eyes…

Seraphim & L-UN4

After the shoot, Seraphim and Luna spent some snuggle-time, getting to know each other better…

seri&Luna

… both girls very interested in the others’ eyes…

seri&Luna2

… in case they missed some subtle nuance, some unspoken part of the conversation…

seri&Luna3

… as quite a lot of the conversation…

seri&Luna4

… wasn’t in words. Seraphim loves being close to Gynoids, as, at this distance, she can hear their internal systems pumping and whirring and clicking… it’s a sound she has, since she very first heard it, found incredibly soothing/comforting.

SL15B Builds

Amongst all the hysterical, candy-coloured, crystal encrusted, boring sameness of the SL15B installations, Seraphim has found a few genuinely creative, unique builds…

SL15B

… in order to find these gems, Seraphim has clawed her way through hours of lag, so bad it basically made her want to kill herself, and, on the ground, caused her to constantly fall into extremely irritating canals, and in the air, caused her to constantly crash into walls…

SL15B2

… it was always a relief from the hysterical cacophony of Disney-cartoon-esqe colours, bland builds and appalling profusion of crystals, to find thoughtful displays, with few crystals and no rainbow explosions of colour…

SL15B3

… and with displays that consisted of more than some pictures on a board, and actually drew her in and engaged her interest…

SL15B4

… she found this one, to be particularly evocative…

SL15B5

… and futuristically monumental…

SL15B6

 

Pictures of Kowloon

Seraphim has long enjoyed the cluttered, grungy, neon spectacle that is Kowloon…

kowloon

… but recent posts by her friends, Veyot, and Pearl Grey, have re-kindled her interest in the place, and she has, of course, been keeping a visual record…

kowloon2

… Kowloon is the epitome of squalid, grunge-encrusted decay, mixed with the dazzling splendour of neon, and the fascinating appeal of Asian calligraphy/signage …

kowloon3

… it is a place of claustrophobic spaces, gloom and shadow…

kowloon5

… a photographers paradise…

kowloon6

… as the gloom is punctuated by beautiful neon signs, and bright lights…
