Tracing the Threads of History and Fantasy

The Fashion Designer

October 25, 2025

I love when furniture has animations that lend themselves well to interesting photography. The Drafting Table from DICTATORSHOP’s Heritage series is one such item. It has plenty to offer in terms of PG and Adult couples animations, but you also have a nice solo menu wit casual animations and a work menu for both genders that shows your avatar at work. The first image is a capture of that, the fashion designer eagerly pouring over her sketches on the table. The PG version has 132 animations and the Adult Vanilla 226. For customisation there are 10 wood textures and 5 metals and 4 different looks for the table—empty, architectural drawings, schematics and fashion designs.

For a bohemian look, I am wearing the Sommeil outfit from the Muses with an elegant choker from Petrichor, with tons of options for the metal and the gemstone. The hair is called Afterglow, a very sexy style from Wasabi for Kustom9.

Pumpkin Pie

October 16, 2025

Today, you’re invited to follow along as I try out making a pumpkin pie with Herb & Fable. If you are unfamiliar with Herb & Fable, I try to give a little introduction, though I am pretty new to it as well and may have gotten some details wrong! It is a mini game within Second Life, which includes things like quests to gather certain items or instructions for how to grow plants or bake and make things. The pumpkin pie recipe and ingredients pack is a new release for the October round of We Love Role-Play, which also includes the Norse-inspired gown from Sweet Kajira that I am wearing and the pumpkin patch (from Jinx, who are the creators of Herb & Fable) you see during the video.

As always, photos and credits (with links to the event) follow below.

The Watchtower

October 13, 2025

Every year, she visits the isolated watchtower and looks out over the ocean. And every year, she leaves in silence and goes back to her life.

We Love Role-Play for October is in full swing and this round mixes in plenty of Halloween-inspired releases. But for this post, I stayed within the classic fantasy realm, using the imposing tower from Nocturna Deed to set the stage. Inside, I decorated with pirate-inspired items from Laminak (there are more pieces to the set than is shown here) and for my outfit I selected the beautiful gown from the Muses and the stunning silver choker from Sigma. The choker is fitted mesh and it really makes for a much better jewellery fit for necklaces, even if that of course limits which bodies you can use it on.

The hair is the Cider style from Wasabi, a high braid that can be worn over either shoulder and with or without bangs for maximum versatility.

Defender of the Hall

October 10, 2025

A week ago, I broke my ring finger on my right hand. I did not think I would be writing anything again for a month, since a full cast was the first prognosis. However, it turned out to need more complicated surgery which in the end meant I needed to be able to start training my finger right away. So, no cast, just a very sore and stiff finger. Writing is a bit of a pain, so I’ll probably keep things short and sweet for a while, but its much better than the alternative!

To get me rolling again, a Viking-inspired setup using the Jarnvidr Longhall from Del-ka Aedilis again, here with some furnishings from Angelicus. And I am wearing one of many excellent Viking/Norse-inspired outfits from Rakshasa. This one is called Vigdis and consists of a top and a skirt.
