From Rezz Day Parties to Haunted Houses

Just a week or so ago I had gone to the rezz-day party for Miss Lapin Paris, in Regency. There was music, and an unusual amount of clothing worn for a Caledon party, but the main point was there were giant Jello-molds to dance in, and a party just isn't a party now without Jell-O.
Eventually though I had to say my goodbyes and leave for some RL concerns.

For the most part after that, I had been away for awhile on Rl concerns, but eventually, I returned to Caledon.
a few nights ago, after working on my Pneumatic arm, Gnarlihotep and myself had gone to a haunted orphanage. It had a creepy aire to it, with a voice constantly telling us we were insane or orphans, and upside down rooms, nice effect, but the maze was a bit much, wich to be honest, I gave up going through and left for home after a good twenty minutes going in circles with screaming undead babies following me..
(worse part was I forgot to take pictures, went back a second time just for pics)

Afterwards, I had gone on a trip to the mainland to find halloween decorations for my cottage, ghosts and all. So a few places were visited that night, and I managed to die a few times I think..

First i had visited a halloween supply store, a lot of nice things, gooey ghosts, and I managed to pick up a reaper who needed a home ^^. their customer service left alot to be desired however, as the above picture shows.
I went to another place, hoping to find some affordable gravestones, unfortunatly they said they'd rather have my soul than money.

Unfortunatly, Possession isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Now I know, never open gates to hell, their idea of customer service is a little off.

At this point I stopped taking pictures as the tentacles were becoming a little too touchy. And biting one only proved to only anger them as they tossed me out, but at least I wasn't being felt up by gribblies anymore, though the landing hurt.

spoke too soon -_-
While I recovered my bearings, i came across this puzzle box sitting on a matress soaked in tomato juice..

Wondering if it's anything like a Rubik's Cube?

Turns out it was busted, the colors never changed, it just changed shape, so I moved on, dissapointed.

Don't ask me what I was doing here, might have still been slightly possessed from earlier.
Another Haunted house had ghosts galore, but they all just wanted to kill me, repeatedly..

I thought this was a recliner, turns out I was wrong.

After all that, I finally managed to take my leave of the ghosts and demons,
and set up my house.
happy halloween ^^

From the Sewers to the Mountains

I had been working on my pneumatic arm design when I overheard through the aethernet chat of a sewer in Victoria City, Having been there enough times with no idea there even WAS a sewer there (I assumed the lack of restrooms in the city negated the need for one to be honest). Curiosity piqued, I traveled over to find it myself as well. After scouring the ground for a grate, hole, anything that may point to a sewer acess, I finally came across a lone manhole in an empty yard. Accompanied by Miss Laura Flintlock, we opened it up and decended. for a sewer, it was surprisingly clean and dry, and i only saw one lone rat. many of the tunnels we saw were shrouded in darkness, but despite braving the dark, we found mostly deadends. One thing of interest however was the boiler in the corner. to what purpose it served down here by it'self, one can only guess. Wether it truly was the Vic City sewers, abandoned laboratory of some past evil genius, or just a basement, once again, one can only guess.

The entrance to a mystery? or just bad aromas

someone left a boiler here?

Afterwards, I had joined Gnarli in touring Wellsian, now that people had moved in and put their houses up. very nice area, mountains surrounded by sea, best of both worlds.
we canoed around from the telehub to the other side and strolled among the houses, running into the guv'nah as he was on his way to do something or other to the ocean floor.

A few days later, Gnarli showed me some of the newer additions to the zoo, including an arena, for ostrich jousting.

Somehow I woke up in a cage, last time I drink that much vodka!

and then a sail around the island in my new ship, the Seadragon, before I hit the covers for the night.

Zoos, high seas and Steambots

Last few days have been interesting, I have taken it upon myself to add a bit more to the undersea view by my home, adding fish and some rocks, almost like a very large saltwater aquarium. Somehow I've gotten into the habit of wearing outfits in theme with what I happen to be working on, so as I've been working underwater, I've been wearing a swimsuit from the mainland, wich causes interesting reactions when I accept teleport offers without thinking first, as I found myself swimming in midair over Equine and a steam mech he had met, Iason Hassanov, a very friendly machine, new to Caledon, and of a very interesting design. After visiting I had gone back to my work building a reef (more a pile of rocks haphazardly strewn across the sea floor). and eventually took a break for air and to see Gnarli's progress with the zoo. He was in lepoard form tonight, wich basically meant he towered above me, and seemed to have an interest in taking pictures tonight. He showed me the visitor's center for the zoo, complete with a barrel of freebee animals ^-^
eventually taking me for a ride around the greystroke/cymru/NCI/kintyre area on his back, next time I go jousting, I'll have to keep 7 foot lepoards in mind as a steed. eventually he wanted to trade places for the ride back, and almost broke my back, foxes are not riding animals...

After the back-breaking trip back, we went to Wellsian to look around, I quickly changed when we got there from the schoolgirl uniform (don't ask), still barefoot, I tried following Gnarli as he bounded away, and eventually gave up and tried to catch up by my rover, wich true to form spiralled out of control off the cliff into the sea (I was later informed of it's wereabouts for retreival) Once I caught up, it seemed the Guv'nah attracted a small crowd just watching him landscape the mountains, it's really looking like it's going to shape up to be a nice sim.

Thenext day I had been in New Babbage, just wandering, mostly for a break from working on a pneumatic arm I'd been planning. when I met a Mr. K. Enoch, who seems to be an aircraft designer, he was testing one out at least. We talked for a bit on aircraft, and I showed off my jetpack, as he showed his wings, eventually, I left him to his work and carried on.

I was called on later that night by Gnarli, he wanted to look around for more animals for the zoo, especially a rideable elephant. We headed for the mainland into some sort of petstore/wildlife preserve.

eventually I came away with my own little fox, I named him Sputnik (yes I know, a fox with a pet fox, it's the whole Goofy/Pluto conundrum , I can live with it without asking questions, can't you? ;p )

And the very next day, I was invited to Tammranoch by Mr. Hassanov to see the progress on his clock tower, Miss Eugena joined us, and the discussion turned to Djinn, lawyers, and machines with souls

eventually, Miss Eugena had to take her leave due to lightning, Gnarli took her place, and eventually, we all called it a night and said our goodbyes.

After milling about my cottage, I took the time to get to know sailing my tako better, fist attempt, sailing around the new area, it was a smooth enough sail, aside from getting the tako hung up on rocks near Cymru, and I've come to the conclusion I won't be sailing any races anytime soon.

A bit later, as I was installing the retractable ramp to the new loft at home, I had a visit from Gnarli, There was an arena in Lock Aviery for armed sparring, so we went. It was my first time in combat, and I managed to lay out Gnarli each and every time too, next time they have a tournament there, I'm thinking i might try it and see how I do ^^

Afterwards, we took a trip to the NASA sim, somehow I managed to lose Gnarli (he didn't board the rocket before I basted off) but it was still amazing. Walking the surface of Mars, I began thinking of ways Caledon could enter the space race, etheric zepplins to mars?

Later we had met with Viderian in Cymeru to see his park and relax a bit, the trees were straylight and looked amazing.

The next day, I had been helping Gnarli organize and move in some of his animals for the zoo (in my case, help consisted of trying to ride all of them and rezzing little kitties everywhere)
at some point, (probably on purpose) some of the panthers had gotten loose, and one of them decided to chase me around a bit until i jumped into one of the pens to get away, then it found the ostrich to be more to it's tastes. Eventually the Guvnah came and we started getting quite a few visitors, for the most part it seemed to go over well for a half finished zoological park.
