Good Girl, Bad Boy

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: (From Adventure Time, Bad Little Boy) Marshall Lee, vampire: "Good little girl, Always picking a fight with me. You know that I'm bad, But you're spending the night with me. What... do you want... from my world? You're a good little girl."   Fionna, human: "Bad little boy. That's what you're acting like. I really don't buy, That you're that kind of guy. And... if you are... Why do you want to hang out with me?"

This post was inspired by the adorable Adventure Time outfits by FATEplay available at Geeks'N'Nerds. There is a Lynne outfit for the girls, and a Finn for the guys. The girl version comes with skirt, bunny hoodie rigged and unrigged, and bonus hair that works perfectly with the hood. The guys version has bear ears hoodie and shorts. Both of them come with hood up or down, backpack, and a sword. There are six color themes to choose from and all items are materials enabled. Also, the outfits come in child sizes too. I used the Original above for girls because the outfit is adorable, and doesn't everyone love team Marshall Lee and Fionna? She's wearing the Grady Heels by Ingenue from the last round of Collabor88 and hopefully it will be in the main store soon. The Thigh High Knit socks for Slink body are by Luxuria and still on sale for Fifty Linden Friday.  Marshall Lee is wearing a great Fitted Mesh sweater, Lawless Greyskull. It has 2 sizes of fitted mesh, plus the standard sizes. I'm using the Fitted above. The sweater also comes in other colors and textures (fleur-de-lis/black, Listen/green, Tattoo/brown). The hair is a new mesh style by Dura, number 54. The Lenox jeans I got picked up The Men's Department and it comes with 6 jeans shades and 4 belt colors. I love the draping and fit on these. Nice. The shoes are Super Kingdom Low Tops, unrigged that I sized to fit the Slink feet. The vampire ears are by Trap, and vampire skin Rays Mort Vivant Bloody by Tableau Vivant.

This pose is one of many in the brand new badass Vampire Barbarian Throne by Death Row. It comes in light and dark, Adult or PG. It has: 2 single male poses, 3 single female poses, 9 vampire couple poses, 4 couple cuddles poses, 4 couple drink serves, 11 couple adult poses, and 12 femdom poses. The guitar hanging on the back on the throne is by Libby's. You can win it on the lucky board. It hangs on the shoulder, and touching it brings up a menu to switch poses.

The Mines of Mars

STORYLINE: A hybrid escapee from the Mines of Mars, Static Charge only found himself right back in the mines when a mysterious scientist and her daughter gave him a proposition he couldn't refuse. Guide them in the mines to an undisclosed location and keep the expedition a secret from all spying eyes, and in return they will smuggle him to the Earth where he will no longer be the "property" of the Lords of Mars.

The Remorse of Victor Frankenstein

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: "Often, after the rest of the family had retired for the night, I took the boat, and passed many hours upon the water. Sometimes, with my sails set, I was carried by the wind; and sometimes, after rowing into the middle of the lake, I left the boat to pursue its own course, and gave way to my own miserable reflections. I was often tempted, when all was at peace around me, and I the only unquiet thing that wandered restless in a scene so beautiful and heavenly -- if I except some bat, or the frogs, whose harsh and interrupted croaking was heard only when I approached the shore -- often, I say, I was tempted to plunge into the silent lake, that the waters might close over me and my calamities forever." - Victor Frankenstein, From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, chapter 9

A Tattered Page [*citation needed] is a brand new event from the Cursed crew. Designers create items from their own imagination inspired by words from the selected novel for that round. (That means no styles or ideas taken from movie, TV shows, plays, comics or other adaptions.) I love this concept. It's true, when reading a novel, an image is created in the mind of the reader. Each person's inner visualization is unique to them. For the first round,  Mary Shelley's gothic novel classic, Frankenstein was picked. Contrary to all the many Hollywood versions of the story, the original is very different. It's been wonderful to see what all the designers came up with. Each item comes with a quote from Frankenstein that inspired the item (that's the *citation needed part of the event). The event runs from November 7-November 30th. This is a store to store hop, just look for the Tattered Page display in each store. Future rounds of Tattered page will have central Library theme location. For more information, previews of all items on sale, and links to each location, go to: A Tattered Page

This post was inspired by Dingy and wonderfully descriptive moment in the book selected by Roawenwood. The Broken Melancholia Dinghy will not be sold like this again after the event ends, it's an exclusive. The boat comes in scripted, and unscripted versions, 2-4 land impact. It has 18 couple animations. It also comes with a paddle and cattails.

Setting:
Boat: Roawenwood Broken Melancholia Dinghy Set exclusive [mesh](A Tattered Page)(375L)

STORYLINE: "... I thought of the heroic and suffering Elizabeth, whom I tenderly loved, and whose existence was bound up in mine. I thought also of my father and surviving brother: Should I by my base desertion leave them exposed and unprotected to the malice of the fiend whom I had let loose among them?" - Victor Frankenstein, From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, chapter 9

Wow, this was such a hard shot to do. I hope you guys like it. Dr Frankenstein is wearing a cool late-Regency / Early Victorian outfit by Avatar Bizarre. It's one piece with coat and pants, and also includes hat, shoes, and cravat. You can choose from many colors, and one of the colors is an exclusive. I love this ring so much! It's the Wedding Night ring by Bliensen + MaiTai for Tattered Page. The black color version is an exclusive to the event. You can get it in gemstones blue, red, green, or purple, and either black skeleton hands or ivory. It's mod so you can adjust it for a good fit. This angsty pose, The Night, is by NanTra. It worked great here for Victor's conflicted feelings. Adding movement for underwater is the Ken Urei hair by Argrace. This wonderful Rays Mort Vivant Shadow pale skin tone by Tableau Vivant is on sale at the Xiasumi School Festival. It includes appliers for hands and feet. I love the details around the eyes and the highlight on the nose. To match the pale skintone, I used the Fingernail Naturals freebie gift from A:S:S. I love the Winter eyes by S0NG, I picked up the green ones recently. Below the surface is a set I built using the Kelp by Aley and MeadowWorks. With all this nice yummy seagrass laying around, I could not resist letting momma manatee and baby from Aqua Shop Gonbe roam around in it. It's manatee heaven down there afterall. lol You can see them hiding in the seagrass on the lower left side.

Rumpelstiltskin 1

(click to enlarge) 
STORYLINE: There once was a boy who was raised by goblins. They taught him their ways and blessed him with magic. He was so loved, even their king adopted him. For his twentieth birthday, he was allowed to return to the human world to look for a bride. However he was completely unprepared for the flaws of humans. Pride, greed, selfishness, deception. For weeks he wandered. Everywhere he looked, he saw ugliness. Surely there was a girl somewhere for him with a pure heart. He had begun to loose hope when sobs of a young maiden locked in a tower interrupted his brooding. He felt compelled to go to her, wipe her tears away, and do whatever she wished, if only she would smile.

Enchantment is back with a new round inspired by Rumpelstiltskin! I had fun coming up with a new twist to this story, I hope you guys like it.  Now if you're thinking, "Hmm... this guy looks a bit familiar," you may be right.

Captured

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: It was supposed to be easy. It wouldn't matter he didn't have experience at this whole vampire thing. Just pick up a pretty little drunk girl at the concert, follow her home, and when she passes out, drink her blood. He'd get a nice buzz, and in the morning she won't remember a thing! It was brilliant! And it would have worked too if not for her roommate who caught him in the act. He woke up with a horrible throbbing knot on the head, and he was handcuffed to the radiator. The girls were debating what they would do to him. He gulped.

Vampire Ballet: Black Souls, Red Cello

(click to enlarge)
STORYLINE: In life, Kuro twins were child prodigies thrilling audiences with their skillful playing. But those happy times ended when a deranged fan tried to "steal" their talent one limb at a time. Their savior was a well-meaning vampire who fused their broken bodies to dolls. When the twins awoke, the shock was too much for them. Gone was their spirit. The sat mute, traumatized, as lifeless as the dolls they inhabited. But their savior never gave up. Their souls were music, and music would save them the way he never could. The years passed, then one day he heard a clumsy bow strike the strings of the cello. He was so happy. It was the break through he was hoping for. Slowly with much effort, the twins returned to the world. For their official coming out, they performed at the auditions for the Vampire Ballet. By the time they played their last note, there was not a dry eye, even among the stone cold hearts of the vampire. They got the standing ovation. This year, Kuro Twins would be the featured guests of the Vampire Ballet.

The excellent gothic lolita dress, Black Rose Witch by MelonBunny, I wanted to show you guys so much for RMK Halloween but time ran out on me. The good news is, you can pick it up now at the main store. For the doll, I am wearing the Kemono version but you can also get it in the default avatar size. It comes with dress, bow with skull collar, apron, petticoat, and bat wings. The cello by Souzou Eien is awesome! It comes with a hud to change the wood color, a version for decoration, and one you wear with bow and sit on the stool to trigger poses. It also comes with a badass coffin case that opens and closes and has the cello inside. The hat and cuffs are from the Remarkable Oblivion's Melancholy gacha which you can play at their main store. Shoes by G Field work perfectly with the doll body. The doll heads are Coco group gift, and the doll body is old past Coco group gift. Aarya of the Dark Phantom blog is helping me out on this post.
