Strange Pixels

~Good evening Grady-san! The Oyabun asks that you forgive him but he is unable to be here to greet you. Regretfully he had to depart to attend to some….business. I am Insilico service and maintenance bot Un Freundlich, can I be of service?

(Damn, I knew it was a mistake to freshen up for this meeting first. Ash must have got a signal off before I froze her with that vampire bot.)

*I see. That is unfortunate. He has information about someone I am looking for.

~Of that I cannot speak. He took the Nexus Prime sub-orb out of Insilico twenty minutes ago. Is this helpful?

*Perhaps. Was he alone?

~No. Two of his staff accompanied him. Would you like to stay for dinner, Grady-san? Allow me to seat you.

*When does the next NP sub-orb leave?

~In two hours, forty three minutes and seventeen seconds. It may interest you to know that the Oyabun also took a cryo-cap with him.

*Oh?

*Please book me a cap on the next sub-orb, Un. In the meantime…

*…how’s the fish?

Hooray for Cocteau Twins references!

I’m not always one for frilly frocks, but Zorena’s new Frou Frou dress appeals to the suppressed girly girl deep down inside.  It’s feminine without being too soft.  Loli with attitude.

I’m also quite enamored with Nomine’s new Sylvan line of skins.  They’re something a little softer than what I’ve been used to seeing from Munch, but without losing her trademark edge.

Do not attempt to adjust your monitors.  I am, in fact, a neko today.

Blame Whirligig, perhaps.  Featuring a cuddly critter in my last post gave me fuzzy-tail-envy.

Or maybe blame the many coffees laced with Baileys that I’ve imbibed so far.

I’m a bad kitty up to nefarious deeds, and this new(ish) Magician’s Belt from Dark Eden holds all my sneaky feline potions and spells.

If I actually owned a cat, I could probably come up with some witty cat-themed magic here.  Elixir of hairball in your shoe?  Essence of sharpening claws on the back of your favorite chair?  I’m drawing a blank here.  Feel free to leave suggestions.

Whirli and I have been discussing which is harder to create… a human av, or a furry one.  Whirli says human.  I say I could never in a million years put together fantastic looks like this one.

The Crux av by Mutation Industries is one of my favorite non-humans on the grid, and Whirligig uses a fantastic sense of style to make it completely unique.

I hope Whirli forgives me for the pink background.  I just couldn’t help meself.  ^.^

The first time I ran into Cutea Benelli she was providing some customer support to a distraught panda bear in her Grim Bros. store.  All in a day’s work  for one of The Wastelands premier outfitters of Post-Apoc clothing, backpacks, and the general necessities of survival in the land of mutant zombies with ‘tude. (Although I do think that incident did colour her design choices when it came time to make a new Grim Bros. outfit.) :)

Cutea is modelling her “Convincing Argument” outfit, which translates as “There is NO such thing as Too Heavily Armed!” When a gal has a killer sense of humour she needs a killer outfit!

If naked tooth and claw competition for survival in the burning wastes isn’t your thing though, Cutea also makes a wide range of outfits and accessories in other genres including Retro-Victoriana and CyberPunk (as blogged here at SP a few months ago. Cyber-Glam)

We can drink from silver vessels
We can feed from silver bowls
Then I’ll give you gilded treasures
Anointed by intoxicating oils
Drenched in riches unimaginable
Your splendour drips with jewels that are so beautiful

Launa’s leather pants are one of my wardrobe staples, so I was thrilled when I saw that she had released them in metallics.

I had to combine them with something extravagant, and it doesn’t get much more extravagant than Zorena’s furs.  They always make me feel so glamorous.

The skin (from Boneflower) is one Achariya has posted a few times, and it just looked so lovely on her, I had to pick it up.

*Evening Ash..

~Reach you bitch!

*Whoa! You always pull guns in bars?

~I do, if it’s my bar and your skinny ass walks in!

*Friendly visit Ash, I’m looking for a couple of people, your Oyabun for a start.

Well WHAT a coincidence! He’s sure looking for you!

*Where is he?

~Having dinner at The Seven Seas. I think you’re going to be the dessert.

~Door’s over there. Let’s go!

*whispers* Finally!

~ What happened to your cheek dollface?

*Hello Rev, your little minion and I had a difference of opinion about timely access to your person. Not to worry though. I only broke his arm.

*You know who I’m looking for? Where she is?

~ As it happens, I do. Not sure why I should tell you though.

Because I’ll take you apart like a cheap plastic toy from China?

~ Heh, my kind of reason. She’s been taken to Insilico. Look for the “Seven Seas Restaurant”.

* The floating City?

~ Uh huh. She might be a little……….damp………by the time you find her though.

Details below the *coughs* cut.
