Saturday, November 2nd, I met with slave Gwendi in the afternoon. It was about time that she got restricted again. Too much freedom is bad for the slaves. Mistress and I had decided to put the slaves into an isolation suit. It took some time to get slave Gwendi into her new suit and in the meanwhile Mistress Jenny was inworld as well and Luci had come by. When I was finished with setting up slave Gwendi new suit Mistress Jenny and I took her and Luci to Mesmerize Dungeon for a while.

My Saturday night was somehow like my afternoon. This time I put slave Flo in her new suit. I decided to make it yellow and black. I needed to get used to the menus of the suit and to the settings and Ann (Transann) helped me. The isolation suit offers some nice features. It is designed for bane drone play, yet so far we don’t intend to use the bane features. There’re some quite strict vision restrictions as well as a broad variety of different talking and communication restrictions. I first had to find out how to get the slave’s visison clear with Ann’s help.

Mistress Jenny joined us when I had just coloured slave Flo’s suit. We caught up while I learned how to operate the suits. Then we moved to Psi’s realm for just a bit as it was already late. We look forward to having some fun with the slaves in their new suits.

Sunday, November 3rd, I went visiting an exhibition in the afternoon and waited for Mistress in our skybox after I returned. Mistress took me to club Domme a Domme where we caught up with our mutual news. I enjoyed beeing at her leash and relaxed. This red light started after our 11th wedding anniversary and I sense it is going to be a long one. Mistress is enjoying it and I enjoy the experience of getting deeper and depper submitted to her. We returned home after half an hour as I had to tend to my RL.

Sunday night was just as I expected it would be. slave Christin was present and so I put her into the new suit as well. I get some more routine with it already and had not to fumble around. I set up the colours of slave Christin’s suit corresponding to those of slave Gwendi, so that the two look almost alike again. After I was done Mistress Jenny, slave Flo, slave Gwendi, slave Chrstin and I had a round of greedy. Then we moved on to Psi’s realm.

November 3rd: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Psi’s realm with slave Flo, slave Christin, slave slut cecy, slave Gwendi and with Ann (Transann), a toy of Ann and Sare Piers.

It was quite full and crowded at Psi’s realm and we had some entertainment. Ann joined us there and brought in a toy of hers as well. And BC’s sister Sara (Sare Piers) stood next to us as well. slave slut cecy came inworld too and joined us. She’s the only one not yet in the new slave outfit. That might change soon, if she’s present more often.

We returned home quite early as many of us had an early start the next day. And that’s it about that weekend.

Friday, November 1st, was a holiday where I live in Germany. Accordingly I found some more time for Second Life and went on an extended simploring tour in the afternoon. When I returned home I found slave Gwendi in our house with LaraSofie. She was trying to teach her how to write on the desk opposed to the terrace cell. Our slave Gwendi for sure has a little domme side in her and it is fun to watch her teasing others.
Mistress Jenny and Ann (Transann) joined us and we chatted a it before we went to Mesmerize Dungeon with slave Gwendi. Luci joined us there and LaraSofie stood near by us after slave Gwendi had helped her getting up from the desk. and had removed LaraSofie’s restrictions.

There’s not much more to report from our afternoon. It was simple enjoyable…. And at night ww had our regular party again. It was kind of a 2nd Halloween party as our dance floor was still decorated and we’re flexible enough to celebrate one day late. Or as Virgo expressed it in her invitation: “It’s Friday again, and we just left halloween behind us, but it seems some have stuck around. So anything ghostly and ghastly is still welcome to party with us.“

The slaves enjoyed their last hours of their freedom time and slave Flo proudly showed her dress “Is there anyone who like to take a picture of me in such a nice dress? It is a rare chance“. Of course I took a seperate picture of it.

On Thursday, October 31st, Halloween I met with Mistress in the afternoon. Halloween is a particular fun in Second Life. Many places are decorated for it, many people wear weired costumes and there’re parties. Mistress Jenny and I first caught up with our mutual news, then we dressed for the day. Mistress wore her bloody Halloween dress and I got into a witch costume. We went to club Domme a domme and spent some time there. BC came by and Luci joined us kneeling at our feet.

At night we visited 3 Halloween parties. We started at velvet dreams mainstore. slave Flo and slave Gwendi joined us there. The slaves didn’t change into something Halloween-ish but we saw another shiny and transparent outfit of Gwendi. Ann (TransAnn) joined us there and changed into a Halloween dress with many skulls. And Argi joined us there as well. We hadn’t seen her since August. It was good to see her again and to know that she’s doing well. The party at velvet dreams mainstore ended at 10:30 PM and we moved on to Venustus. There was no real Halloween party going on there but we listened to good music and made it to an Halloween party.

I had an invite from Aneli Abeyante and Vroum Short for another Halloween party at VeGeTaL PLaNeT starting at 11 PM and we went there next. The decoration of the party area was great and the windlight setting was very fitting. Argi and Ann left us as well as slave Flo soon afterwards but Mistress, slave Gwendi and I continued dancing and chatting there until after midnight.

It was a very relaxed and enjoyable Halloween!

Simploring 2019 (113) Huntington Beach

09 Nov 2019 2 Comments

by diomitamaurer in Exploring sims in Second Life Tags: , , ,

Saturday, October 26th, I visited Huntington Beach. I got the landmark once again by following scoop.it SL Destinations. The landmark description is a cross reference to Huntington Beach in the physical world: “Huntington Beach is a seaside city in Orange County in Southern California, located 35 miles southeast of Downtown Los Angeles“. It further contains the link to timeline article with pictures “Photos: Dark beauty in the oil fields of old Southern California“. This article and the pictures in it inspired Jade Koltai to create Huntington Beach in Second Life.

Huntington Beach is named after American businessman Henry E. Huntington. The population is about 200,000. It is known for its long 9.5-mile (15.3 km) stretch of sandy beach, mild climate, excellent surfing, and beach culture (source wikipedia)
I have been in Huntington Beach in the early 1990’s and I remember seeing long wide beaches, surfers and many overground powerlines (in Europe powerlines are mostly subterrestrial) disturbing the view. I knew that California not only had a gold rush but also large oil occurrences that were depleted during the 20th century. But I was not aware how the California beach looked like in the 1920’s and 1930’s. If you look up the above mentioned timeline article you will get an idea!

Some impressions of Huntington Beach, CA

Jade Koltai, the owner of Huntington Beach, created a sim that gives us an idea about how Huntington Beach might have looked like in the 1950’s. In the virtual world of Second Life we’re able to travel the world and to travel in time.

Huntington Beach in Second Life – overiew

Huntington Beach is a (moderate) homestead consisting of four main parts: the pier, the beach, the town and the field of oil derricks. The landing point is at the pier, which is quite famous in Huntington Beach. The original Huntington Beach Pier was built in 1904. With it’s length of 1,850 feet (560 m) it is one of the longest public piers on the West Coast. The pier in Second Life is way shorter and just offers a snack bar and some opportunities to sit. I met Jade Koltai there and we had a short chat.

Impressions of Huntington Beach (1) – at the landing point

The town right next to the pier offers a motel with a pool and a tennis court and quite some shops: a pet shop, a barber shop, a toys shop, a butchery, a clothes shop, a donut shop, a cheese shop and a confectionery. All of them are furnished and it is fun to have a look inside of them.

Impressions of Huntington Beach (2) – the motel and the shops

There’s also a large gas station and an abandoned drive in movie theatre. Next to the gas station is a quite large red building with on open court. It could be a restaurant as there’re some tables and chairs in the court but for sure you can dance in the court (there’re couple animations for dancing available). Last but not least there’s a trailer park at one end of the town.
The whole town has a little bit morbid charme as you can sense how flourishing it was in the 1950’s and that it is in decline.

Impressions of Huntington Beach (3) – the trailer park, the shops, the abandoned drive in movie theatre and the event area

Directly adjacent to the town is the field of oil derricks. Because there’re so many they are really scaring. You get an idea that it was not at all environmentally beneficial. I walked a along the derricks and made quite some pictures also using another windlight setting to get a more threatening atmosphere.

Impressions of Huntington Beach (4) – the field of oil derricks

Finally I visited the beach. Here you get an impression of how beach life was with the derricks in the background. Intriguing!

Impressions of Huntington Beach (5) – the oil derricks and the beach

I enjoyed my visit to Huntington Beach. The sim offers a lot of opportunities to sit and cuddle, to explore, to take pictures and to enjoy yourself. And for me it also was quite instructional in addition. It made me read about the oil rush in the 1920’s and 1930’s. Thank you Jade for creating Huntington Beach in Second Life and for sharing it with the public.

simploring 2019 (112) – 20][21 gallery “Miss Barbara’s sense for ice”

Our friend Barbara Reiter-Jewell (Barbara Reiter) has her own little gallery called “20][21 gallery“, where she exhibits her own work every once in a while. Saturday, November 2nd, she opened her exhibition “Miss Barbara’s sense for ice” with pictures of her journey to Greenland in 2019: icebergs at Disco Bay, mainland shelf and some Greenland moods. It is an art show and installation showing an other view into arctic and arctic life.

In the 20][21 gallery you can see the pictures presented in different ways as slideshows, as panorama pictures where you can litteraly walk in and as wall filling exhibits. Besides the quality of the pictures the permanent changing of them at the walls and slideshows and different viewing angles allow you to immerse yourself into this artic world.

A view into the 20][21 gallery

I added a few sample pictures of the exhibiton so that you get an impression. The pictures look better in the 20][21 gallery. For me personally presenting photographs from the physical world in Second Life is a great fit between the two worlds that adds another dimenision to 2D pictures.

Diary 2019 (169) October 29th/30th A few days of relative freedom for the slaves (II)

Tuesday, Ocotber 29th, I met with Mistress in the afternoon. After I had reported to her about my day so far, Mistress instructed me exactly what to wear, added wrist cuffs, leashed and took me to a place I had’t been before – Bellaura Manor & Slave Storage. I didn’t see much of it as Mistress led me into one room, locked me in a tiny cage and made herself comfortable on a couch nearby. Then she finally told me about her day. After she had caught up with me, she released me from the cage and we cuddled a bit on the couch.

October 29th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at Bellaura Manor & Slave Storage.

We left the place and went on to club Domme a Domme where we watched people and read profiles for a while. I enjoyed kneeling leashed at Mistress’ feet. Finally Mistress took me home and we had a dance at our disco that is still decorated for the season. Then Mistress had to leave into her RL.

October 29th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at club Domme a Domme and dancing at home

Mistress Jenny is taking me even further in my submission to her and she already took me beyond the point she experienced herself many years ago as my submissive. Sometimes I still wonder and just adore her.

My night became relaxed. First just slave Flo was present when I returned inworld at night. But slave Christin and slave Gwendi showed up soon after. I first released slave Flo’s restrictions and allowed her to change and while she change I sat down and talked with the other two slaves. slave Flo selected a hot dress and no wig. As the slaves enjoyed their relative freedom I even proposed four alternatives for how to spend the night – but they are not used to make any decisions. Finally I decided. We had one game of greedy, then we went to Mesmerize Dungeon so that the slaves could show their dresses. Once again I had the impression that we were the only ones who dare to talk in mainchat. The slaves did enjoy their freedom and we quite some silly chit chat before it was already time to head home and to bed.

Wednesday, October 30th, I had one hour in the afternoon with Mistress Jenny. She took me to Heavy Bondage Club and to club Domme a Domme where we met BC. Mistress and I caught up with our mutual news and talked about the upcoming days. I enjoyed being with Mistress’ leash and before Mistress Jenny had to leave she allowed me getting my fix. Thank you Mistress.

October 30th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita t Heavy Bondage Club and at club Domme a Domme with BC

My night was comparable short as I came inworld late due to RL. slave Gwendi, slave Chrsstin, slave Flo and slave slut cecy were inworld. slave Flo had cleaned the house and slave slut cecy had done the sweeping. We first stayed at home. The slaves begin to make the most of their relative freedom. slave Flo was shopping and presented new ballet boots to me. She also got some head phones. slave Christin has visited some clubs where she hasen’t been for a while. And slave Gwendi had tried on different outfits. When I met her she was disguised as a domme.

October 30th: Diomita with slave Gwendi, slave Christin, slave Flo and slave slut cecy at home and at Mesmerize Dungeon.

We went to Mesmerize Dungeon for about 30 minutes and continued chatting there. slave Christin mentioned that slave Gwendi was wearing a whip before. It almost seemed that slave Christin is missing gettin whipped. Well, we will find out about that. slave Gwendi asked me for permission to stand and to wear the whip again. I took a picture of slave Gwendi standing in front of slave Christin. slave Christin had nothing to fear as I still held slave Gwendi’s leash *grins*. We had fun being a bit silly. And it is quite interesting to watch the slaves while they enjoy some freedom. We learn more about their secret desires and they will feel their restrictions way more intense again afterwards as they can only miss what the had *winks*

Simploring 2019 (111) Last Dove

06 Nov 2019 2 Comments

by diomitamaurer in Exploring sims in Second Life Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

Tuesday, November 5th, I visited “Last Dove“, a moderate homestead sim owned by Erythro Isback (erythro).  It has been created by Erythro with full collaboration of shannon Cardalines. I got the landmark by following scoop.it SL Destinations and I read Maddy (Maddy Gynoid)’s blogpost about Last Dove in his blog Echt Virtuell – “Simtipp: The Last Dove” (the blog is in German) before I visited myself. And I’m really happy that I did!

Erythro Isback (erythro) wrote into the landmark’s decription:
“Created with love in the spirit of West Texas honoring those that came before, those with us and our future.
“Let the cowboys be cowboy bound.””

First impressions of Last Dove – upper left is an overview

Last Dove looks like the background of a movie – and it feels as if you’re a part of a movie. There’re bots dressed like cowboys that walk around and liven up the scenery. Dust is blown through the village that consists of a saloon, an abandoned chapel and a few houses. There’s a ranch, a barn, a small ranch house and a corall …. beside of that you’re in the wide open. The sim background is just amazing as it make the plains endless. A group of wild horses is drinking at the shore, a group of buffalos is close to the ranch.

Impressions of Last Dove (1) – Inara Pey entering the town (upper left)

While I was exploring Last Dove I saw Inara Pey riding a horse. I grabbed a horse myself (as far as I experienced it you can only grab and ride the horses that are in the corral, the others who haven’t found their way back can’t be ridden) and rode to her and we had a nice chat. Inara told me that the whole setting is based on Lonesome Dove, “a 1985 Western novel by American writer Larry McMurtry. It is the first published book of the Lonesome Dove series but the third installment in the series chronologically (source Wikipedia)“.
The bots that I saw are characters from the novel Captain Woodrow F. Call , Captain Augustus “Gus” McCrae, Pea Eye Parker and others. In 1989 a TV mini series with 4 Episodes was broadcasted that featured renowed actors like Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones, Diane Lane and Anjelica Huston.

Impressions of Last Dove (2) – Inara Pey and Diomita (upper right)

I had fun exploring the “Last Dove” the right way: riding a horse. And I took many pictures, the background is simply too outstanding.
And I decided to be lazy and to refer to Maddy Gynoid’s “Simtipp: The Last Dove” and to Inara Pey’s post “Last Dove: a western homage in Second Life” instead of further research about the novel and the TV series. In addition, my pictures tell more than a thousand words could do.

Impressions of Last Dove (3) – Inara Pey and Diomita (upper left)

Don’t miss this great sim. Thank you Erythro Isback (erythro) and shannon Cardalines for creating this masterpiece of virtual immersion and for sharing Last Dove with the public.

P.S.: I had a nice chat with Erythro later. He asked me to give credit to corrade bots, an essential piece of the sim. Here’s the link.

Diary 2019 (168) October 26th – 28th A few days of relative freedom for the slaves (I)

I went on a simploring tour Saturday, Ocotber 26th, after lunch. When I returned home and had just changed, Mistress Jenny came inworld. She was wearing a black leather outfit that looked simply stunning together with her coloured hair that she kept from the clown outfit the night before. A really intriguing look. We went to Heavy Bondage Club where we caught up with our mutual news.
For our wedding anniversary Jenny and I both wore our slave collars. While I had exchanged Mistress Jenny’s slave collar with her normal collar the day before, I was still wearing my Ehesklavin collar for a good reason as I was going to learn that afternoon.

October 26th: Mistress Jenny and Ehesklavin Diomita at Heavy Bondage Club and at home

My 12th year married to Mistress Jenny began with a shocking bang for me. Mistress broke a new rule to me. I will not go into details here, but the new rule refers to our skybox. It fully establishes Mistress’ position any time (and my position as her slave). Just in the annex, that I used for green lights only before, I will be free to do what I want. This way, I will be able to furtheron lead the family and to guide and dominate the slaves but once Mistress or I retreat to the skybox I will be Mistress’ slave wife. Mistress said “any time I see you make a mistake and forget the rule then I will make sure you suffer things that you do not like … I know the real things that you don’t like now”. And she added that the new rule is not restricted to red lights but is valid always until Mistress relaxes it and it is not something she will barter. There was no room left for any discussion.
We returned home and to our skybox and Mistress allowed me to get my fix licking her. I can tell that pushing me deep into subspace and establishing the new rule had an exciting effect on Mistress…
What a start into my 12th year!

Saturday night we had an all family night. First just slave Gwendi and slave Flo were present when Mistress Jenny and I came back inworld. Later slave Christin and slave slut cecy also joined us. We had in mind just to stay half an hour at Mesmerize Dungeon and to go to our patio afterwards but taking slave slut cecy there took a while due to an old relay that didn’t allow teleporting. Mistress Jenny finally had slave slut remove that old relay and replaced it with a newer one.

October 26th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita a Mesmerize Dungeon with slave Flo, slave Gwendi, slave Christin and slave cecy – Luci, Ann and LaraSofie joined us for a short while

We had fun at Mesmerize Dungeon and might have entertained the club again with our chatting. Luci (Luci Glendale) and Ann with LaraSofie at her leash joined us for a while. We decided to postpone time at our patio to Sunday and stayed a bit longer. Mistress had an early start the next day and although it was day where we changed the clock 1 hour back in Europe during the night we returned home before midnight.

Sunday, October 27th, I went again on a simploring tour in the early afternoon. I had fun visiting another lovely sim, that was glowing in the colours of Autumn. And at night? Nothing! We hadn’t had this for many years but the SL grid was unaccessible for all of us that night – and accordingly there’s nothing to report here.

Monday, October 28th, I met Mistress Jenny at night and we caught up about the last 2 days. The new rule that Mistress has enacted has a very strong effect on me.
slave Gwendi was present and we went to see her. Today was “the day” – we had promised that the slaves may spend 4 days of relative freedom, with no restrictions and free to dress as they like, even waring wigs over their short hair. Of course the collar stayed on as well as wrist cuffs. I began to unlock slave Gwendi step by step and she selected something to wear herself afterwards, a dress.

October 28th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at home with slave Gwendi and slave Christin

slave Christin joined us when slave Gwendi had dressed and I unlocked her gear as well and lifted most of her restrictions. slave Christin also decided to wear a dress. We allowed the slaves to select a club to go to and they choose to go to Mesmerize Dungeon, where we spent the night. Unfortunately slave Flo was not inworld that night and missed the first of the 4 days.

October 28th: Mistress Jenny and Diomita at Mesmerize Dungeon with slave Gwendi and slave Christin – what a change!

Mistress and I retreated to our skybox and we had some time for ourselves. Thank you Mistress Jenny!

Simploring 2019 (110) Rocks by Cica Ghost

04 Nov 2019 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in Exploring sims in Second Life Tags: , , , , ,

Yesterday I got an invitation by Cica to visit her newest installation “Rocks by Cica Ghost“, that opened November 3rd. And I went there right away late at night.

Impressions of “Rocks by Cica Ghost” (1)

This time Cica Ghost art is presented by Sim Quarterly, a sim and initiative of Electric Monday:
“Art and the virtual world, Second Life© are very similar —you are able to both find yourself and immerse yourself (and maybe even lose yourself) in something totally unlike what you already know. The experiences you gain help you grow and form new opinions about the world. That is what I hope this sim can provide over time. I am very excited to bring to you a quarterly art project by way of The Sim Quarterly.
The project features one creator every 3 months (every quarter) as an artist in residence. The purpose of the sim is so that residents can experience something new and even create a community.”
Learn more about Sim Quarterly at their website.

Impressions of “Rocks by Cica Ghost” (2)

“Rocks by Cica Ghost” is an island with … rocks! All is grey tones, the windlight submerges the island in turquoise, the clouds glow in orange. All rocks are painted and thus Cica’s rocks become a world of it’s own. I recognized a lot of Cica’s themes be it cats or snails. You see “Cica-ish” flowers, trees and houses on the rocks. There are no ohter plants than those painted on the rocks, no green grass, just rocks and some groups of naked floral stems. The girl from “Frogs” (read simploring 2017 (9) Frogs by Cica Ghost) has a reappearance and you find her painting the rocks.

Impressions of “Rocks by Cica Ghost” (3)

As usual humans become dwarfs in Cica’s worlds. The rocks are huge and so are the painted animals, houses, and flowers. It is fun to immerge yourself into “Rocks by Cica Ghost“. It warmed my heart seeing all the funny and peaceful animals and to recognize Cica’s humor at every corner. If you hoover your mouse over some of the rocks you can dance in front of some rocks or sit on others. This adds to fun and it is what “Rocks by Cica Ghost” is intended for – getting out from every day life (even in SL), dance, laugh and have fun!

Impressions of “Rocks by Cica Ghost” (4)

Thank you Cica for another great installation and thank you Electric Monday for your initiave and for hosting “Rocks by Cica Ghost“. I do look forward to visit Sim Quarterly and it’s art projects again.

Simploring 2019 (109) {Unconditional}

03 Nov 2019 Leave a comment

by diomitamaurer in Exploring sims in Second Life Tags: , , , , , , ,

For my simploring tour on Sunday, October 6th, I picked “{Unconditional}” from scoop.it SL Destinations. {Unconditional} is an adult homestead owned by Chavy (Chavonne Mcauley). According to Maddy Gynoid’s blogpost “Simtipp: {Unconditional}“, besides Chavy also Tomis (Tomisnotaboy Resident) and Moonsoul Resident helped creating {Unconditional}.

The name of the sim is related to love, unconditional love. The landmarks description provides a definition of it “Unconditional love — in its most simplest form — means appreciating someone else for who they truly are. It means loving them when they are unlovable, and in spite of their imperfections and mistakes.”
The sim is open to the public yet although it is an adult place you’re asked to refrain from nudity.

{Unconditional} – overview

{Unconditional} consists of 4 islands. I named them Beach island, Swamp island, Mill island and Community island. All islands are connected by bridges. The landing point is on Beach Island next to a small shelter. Walking along the shore of the island I came across several very nice places to sit down, to chill or simply enjoy the surrounding. Some trees on Beach Island are glowing in the colours of Autumn.

Impressions of {Unconditional} (1) – Beach island

Impressions of {Unconditional} (2) – Beach island

From the Beach island your get to the Swamp island by a path and by walking through a hollowed tree trunk. The Swamp island might be the most photogenic island of the four islands. An elevated wooden path lead through the swamp to a nice and cosy hut from where you have a nice view. Another great place to make a stop is at the pond in the center of the Swamp island. And I found a nice elevated place to sit just at the end of my visit on this island.

Impressions of {Unconditional} (3) – Swamp island

The Mill island is outstanding because of its waterfalls. The wooden path along the falls is really well done. I also want to point out the alley of twisted trees that looks just beautiful with its red leaves. At Mill island there’re again several nice spots to sit … and some great backgrounds. The house on Mill island is private and not accessible.

Impressions of {Unconditional} (4) – Mill island

A stone bridge connects Mills island with Community island. It is raining on the bridge.. with another windlight setting you might get some great pictures there. In front of the villa on Community island are several tables and chairs, there’s a stand for hot chocolate and a fountain. To me it looked like a place to meet friends and hence I named this island Community island. The villa is not furnished by the way (or not yet).

Impressions of {Unconditional} (5) – Community island

{Unconditional} offers some really nice Autumn views, particularly when using the regions windlight setting. I decided to use another windlight setting as the picture get a bit dark using the regions settings. But {Unconditional} is not a sim just for the Autumn. I like the Beach island with its cosy places and I enjoyed the views on the Swamp island. I think the alley of trees and the waterfalls as also outstanding.

Thank you Chavy (Chavonne Mcauley) for creating your place and for sharing it with the public!
