Dio’s 7th year in Second Life Feb 11th, 2015

Incredible but true: Today marks my 7th rezzing anniversary in Second Life. It has become a tradtion for me to write a longer blog post summarizing the last year. Again, at the first glance nothing has changed, we enjoy a rare stability within our Second Life and I am very thankful about it. But of course we had some changes and many events and joyful moments.

Our home might be one reason for the stability. It is my base, the base for our family and friends. And it’s the family and friends who make a home. Home in SL is where they are. We still have our homestead for more than 3 years now. Tyra (Tyra.Sciarri) and Virgo (Virgo.Babii) on one side and Sarah (Sarah.Fhang) on the other side are still our neighbours. Thank you! Our island didn’t undergo dramatic changes but we continued to develop it.
We buildt a new main house. It is larger and has a spacious main room, so it is better for when we stay inside to play or chat and we stay a bit more inside now. We also added a new waterfall – Angel Falls just close to the Shangri-La. And we made new pathways and stairs and did some minor changes here and there. No big changes, slight improvements. When I get online and see our island, I know its time to recover and relax and to enjoy my free time. I’m at home.

With regard to our family we had some changes:
We released Danii on May 24th 2014, as she  got hooked to other activities (“real” games) and her visits got rare.
We collared rona, “Maurer’s Künsterlin”, on June 26th 2014. Again: Welcome to the family, rona!
We sold our slave Dana on December 27th, 2014. Dana was our collared brat for more than 4 years. Her submission and dedication despite the timezone issue was and is amazing. We gave Dana into the hands of centi (centaur.mcGinnis) at least for now. Dana will stay close and will stay a family member – and we only sold her for her good (and we will buy her back if needed *winks*)
We released our niece Luna (Fae) on December 26th, 2014. Fae has and always had her own kinks and ways. Fae found a new passion being a fairy in Second Life. She shaped her avatar into a dwarf and has wings and she renamed herself into Luna Dewglitter. We’re happy for her. And whatever kink she’s exploring, Fae is welcomed at home and in our family. It just doesn’t need a collar as Fae gets close for some months and then vanishes again for some months.
We also sadly released Delilah, our concubine, on December 30th, 2014. Delilah had some problems in her RL. We hope that she overcame them. But she decided to stay off and she didn’t reappear for half a year, no sign of life, no email reply. Where ever you are, Delilah: Good luck to you! And feel free to say hello to us when you return online one day.
Our official family has shrunk a bit but the family and friends group is still growing.
Kitty (Santana.Thibedeau) was a pony for a very long time. On the occasion of her 6th collaring anniversary, we allowed her transformation back into her Kitty shape. We can tell that Kitty is very excited about the change and particularly that she can see her new skin and shape now. She looks like a real woman now, just her manners and behavior need some let’s say improvements. We look forward to Kitty’s ongoing adventures!

Maurer’s It (queen.takacs) is our strict restrained bondage victim for over 4 (!) years now. Recently we moved her to “The Keep” for some weeks, where she enjoyed her isolation and can fantasize about how to escape from us (what weill never happen *grins*). Now she’s back to her place at the decking and gets some eye candy at least every once in a while.
Angelique, our sweet niece, is also already close to 3 years with us. She is very special for her aunts. Always a brat, always different and always faithful. Thank you for being with us. You belong to us, Angelique.
Slave Flo (florence.riddler) was acquired more than 1 year ago. Slave Flo cares reliably about dusting and keeping our home clean. She pleases us with her devotion and with her blog entries (“News from Flo”-series) and gives us a lot in return for caring about her.
And rona, who is our youngest with regard of being collared, added a lot to my and our SL. It’s because of her that I discovered new ways of taking and processing pictures. And Jenny and I are really happy having her in our family. She added different kinks and preferences to our family. And this is what makes this family so particular for me – it’s variety. Rona had an exhibition of her art on our sim in fall 2014. It was exciting to set it up, to make the boards and ads and of course to see it. I hope that her exhibitions will become a regular event in the years ahead.
As for right now we’re missing rona for 2 months already. We hope that she’s doing well and wait for a sign of life. If you read this, drop us a line please, Rona. We do miss you!

20140921 Exhibition Announcement

What else has to be mentioned about my 7th year in SL?
We continued our “Enjoying bondage”-series on the blog. It has become a regular event to think about something different every month. And I truely enjoy it.
I improved my skills taking and processing pictures. And I uploaded some of my pictures to deviantArt (dA). I have fun doing that and it became sort of a 2nd diary just for the best pictures that I took on SL. And I learned some new tricks about taking pictures and how to make videos. It was fun to learn how to do it and the results are at least a nice memory.
Inspired by the Living in a modemworld blog of Inara Pey, I visited several sims. One fascination of SL for me is the creativity of people around the world. It is simply amazing what is created by others inworld. I visited “Umbral”, “The Bay”, “The Citadel”, “Dawn of Radiance”, “The Lefevre Mansion”, “Sanssouci”, “France Portnawak”, “Santorini”, “Angel Manor” and several galleries. We made the Halloween and the Christmas tour, both were real events and left fond memories. I enjoyed the colours of autum in several sims. Exploring and discovering what the human spirit can produce is for sure something that keeps me excited here.

We also tried new toys and gear and lately we used more often Katie Paine’s “Restraind Freedom” (RF) gear. Particularly the hood, the stealth gag and the mittens took our attention. Besides Marine Kelley’s Real Restraints (RR) those became our favourite toys and our subs mostly are equipped with them for our pleasure (and their pleasure too).
I also need to mention Virgo and our Friday night parties. The parties are a part of my everyday life and I look forward to every Friday not just because the weekend starts. We enjoy great music, we have fun with the themes and we find time to chat in public and in IM while we listen to the music. Thank you Virgo for playing the music for us. I really appreciate it a lot.
Still there’s a lot to explore in SL be it ourselfs and or fantasies and kinks or be it art or creatively build sims. We also like to play games like greedy or ludo and lately also cards against humanity. So at least for me Second Life hasn’t lost its facination and I enjoy the time that I can spend here online.

Diomita "Owned Domme"

Diomita “Owned Domme”

Jenny and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversay on October 24th, 2014. This is even in RL a long time of being together and we continue to enjoy our relation. And we continue to explore eachother and our kinks. We both developed in our relation and became collared to eachother years ago. But this last year, November 21st 2014, Jenny took even more control and she replaced my jewelery collar with a thick leather and steel collar signed “Owned domme” and I submitted. Thus she took away my status of being equal to her. She became Mistress Jenny for me.
The experience of being submitted to her as well as giving full control to her changed me and us. For my part it is that I truely submit to my wife like she did and does for close to 7 years now. I do fully accept being owned property. I enjoy her control and her guidance and I see her submission to me in a different way now.
On New Year’s day 2015 Mistress Jenny restored my status and granted that I wear my jewelery collar again. We started 2015 as a domme couple, fully equal and partnered in love. As we see fit and feel for it, we will give full control to the other. Thus we can recover strength and enjoy our both submissive side as well. Thank you, Jenny, my world!

Besides Jenny, the brats, our neighbours many others contribute to our SL and became close friends for us. Thank you all for making this world for me and for us. SL is first of all about people and it’s you all who make my and our SL what it is: Still enjoyable and exciting! It was a great 7th year in Second Life and I look forward to the 8th.

Love from Diomita

Angel Manor

Again I followed a recommendation from the “Living in a Modemworld” blog by Inara Pey: Angel Manor.
(https://modemworld.wordpress.com/2015/01/21/the-majesty-of-creation-in-second-life/)

Angel Manor

Angel Manor

I’m close to 7 years in Second Life now and I didn’t hear about it before.
What an impressive palace!
What a beautiful creation!
Angel Manor is worth a visit. Thank you, Angel Kaya, for creating this for us! To get an impression watch this before visiting the manor:

.

I enjoyed a relaxing hour just strolling through the hallways and rooms. Kinky me felt royal and made a real contrast in this ancient luxury. You can’t really take pictures as you miss the third dimension. The palace is huge and honestly I lost orientation and it took a while before I found one of the main entrances. Here are some pictures:

Dear Diary – Between the years and year end changes

The time between christmas and the new year is always a time to look back, make good intentions and to clear up. So we did to some extent in our Second Life as well. Just a few days ago I cleared up the family and friends group, ejecting those who don’t belong to our closest friends. We like to keep the group restricted to the family itself, former members and to neighbours and longtime friends. If you were ejected, please don’t feel offended at all!

Regarding the family we just sold our slave Dana. That was bittersweet. We are convinced that Dana will always stay close and that she will enjoy serving her new owner centi.
Jenny and I also decided to change our niece Fae’s status within the family. We release her as our collared sub. Fae (or lately Luna) has always seeked her own ways and adventures in SL like her latest adventure becoming a “mini”-fairy.  She’s a lovely niece, a close and beloved friend, but we use (or should I say more precisely abuse) her as a sub less than rarely. Therefor it is only consequent not to see her as our sub. Fae shall keep her tag and her priviledges as our niece. Her home is at Mount Everst and she’ll stay a family member. We will only not list her as our collared sub anymore. We’re aware of her dedication and her submissive nature and we will not hesitate to boss her around nonetheless.

Sadly we also released Delilah Maurer (delilah.ormidale), our concubine. Deli is a wonderful sub and has pleased us a lot and added so much to the Eurobrats. During the last year Deli came online less and less due to her RL and finally didn’t appear at all anymore for the last 6 months. We lost any contact to her and she didn’t give any sign of life or replied to our offline IM’s or emails. We can only hope that she’s doing well and wish her all the best. If you read these lines, Delilah – we miss you! Deli will of course also stay a family member and will be welcomed back home in case she joins us again one day.
With these changes it was about time to update the family overview which I did.

20141227 Mimi Singer Hadisson in concert at LDaMS_002Between the year is not only time to clear up, it is also time to have fun with a bit more time online (at least I could spend a bit more time online). And there is no blog entry without some more pictures. On Saturday, Dec 27th, we visited a concert at the Lesbian D/s M&Y Society. It’s always surprising to visit a concert in SL and this one was again proving what is possible in a virtual world. We enjoyed the performance.

This year I bought a HD Video System from Marine Kelley, the creator of our favourite bondage gear “Real Restraints”. A good entertainment for these days between the years is watching a video together. Marine published lately several movies from her “Gina-series”. And watching together, making remarks and cuddling is much better than watching alone.

naughty owned Mistress Jenny

One of these days Mistress Jenny teased me a full night long wearing a transparent latex dress. When we retreated to our private rooms, Mistress offered me her keys for just one hour.
I immediately took the opportunity and locked her arms behind her back and then forced her to sit on our sybian and began to play with the litte remote control. As the picture proves my naughty owned Mistress did enjoy it a lot – and I did too watching her *winks*

Jenny and I playing like kids at Baja NorteDuring this of the year many sims are decorated and changed according to the season. So now is the time to visit as long as they exist in this virtual temporary world of Second Life.
We went to Baja Norte and enjoyed a fabulous winter decoration with fairies, elfes and dwarfs.  You’ll find a description and the landmark in Inara’s “Living in a modemworld”-blog.
(http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/12/28/a-storybrooke-winter/)

And of course we didn’t miss to tease and teach our subs between the years…..

It’s the season again. For all of us a mostly busy time. Even more Second life can provide some time to relax and wind down. Once again I followed a recommendation fron the “Living in a modemworld” blog to a place we visited before last winter: Calas Galahon. See a nice video about this year’s season installation an a introduction to what you’ll see in Inara Pey’s blog (http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/12/01/a-calas-galadhon-noel/). You’ll find this sim here: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Breakfree/236/241/22.

Jenny and I took the long tour with the sledge that provides lovely views. The sledge is for two, so you can cuddle together and talk, listen to christmas songs and simply relax. Fortunately Jenny and I are finished with getting presents at least inworld SL and thus we could relex and enjoy. So when you’re not up to something kinky in SL but just want to chill – hop on a sledge, relax and enjoy!

Umbral

20141214 Umbral_007

Sunday mornings seem to be a good time for me exploring Second Life. I read in Inara’s blog about Umbral and of course I had to see it. Please read here for a more detailled description of this sim (http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/12/14/a-visit-to-hydra-isles/).
Umbral is a devided sim, one half is just for photographers who enjoy a lovely background and the beauty and creativity of Second Life. The other half contains an adult D/s play area but isn’t less breathtaking beautiful. Umbral is worth a visit for both sides.

Of course I also had a throroughly look at the adult area. What impresses me most is the love for detail also there. Not a dark dungeon, but a warm, enviting and spacious living area with enough room to sit and cuddle, a fireplace and decorations according to the season. That is is an adult play space only reveals on the second view. A cage here and a suspension hook there, plus furniture with the “right” set of animations. Overall, a place you like to play and to be in for fun. Thank you Inara, for your blog post about Umbral – and thank you vlady Veeper and Coqueta Veeper for creating this sim and allowing us to enjoy it.

Simploring The Bay

Diomita selfie at “The Bay”

Today I found the time to do some simploring and visited The Bay (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Cats/97/210/22).
You can read more about the sim in the Living-in-the Modemworld blog at http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/12/04/the-bay-tropical-retreat-with-an-adult-twist/
I explored the public areas and there are some really nice and cosy spots and places to enjoy the landscape and the natures. Just the right place to relax, to listen to music or to dive into SL’s beautiful sides. In the center of the sim is a dungeon, fitting to the pirate theme of the island, which I just explored with my cam. To get inside you’ll meed to become a group member which might provide some privcacy as it is not for free. And I made a couple of selfies which I share with you.

The Haunted Halloween Tour

As Halloween is getting closer we treid out some temporary installations. The Halloween tour is really good, very well made and lots of fun. As it will be gone soon, don’t miss the tour. It is worth your time!!
Thank you Inara for sharing!

The Haunted Halloween Tour, launched with the October Premium Membership offer The Haunted Halloween Tour, launched with the October Premium Membership offer (click images for full size)

Launched alongside the October 2014 Premium Membership offer, but available to all SL users, is the Haunted Halloween Tour, he latest offering from the Lab to feature Experience Keys, and one that appears to be specifically geared towards the Oculus Rift.

The tour can be accessed via the Lab’s Portal Park – simply go through the gate marked “Halloween” following your arrival. The path will lead yo to the access point, with gateways available for those with and those without an Oculus headset (the latter obviously requiring the Oculus Rift project viewer).

Whichever one you take (the actual tours are more-or-less the same), the first time you do so, you’ll be required to grant the experience the right to carry out certain actions on your avatar (perhaps most noticeably in this case…

Exploring sims and places

Not that this blog is going to change but I have been visiting two other places that were described in Inara’s blog and are really worth a visit.

Darkwood boat tour

Darkwood boat tour

Last weekend I visited Darkwood (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Breakfree/248/242/23), first alone and then together with Jenny. The full description can be found here: http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/10/02/along-the-paths-of-the-darkwood-where-the-nightshade-lay/. It is an Halloween design, so I assume that it is temporary only. I recommend doing the boat tour. You have nothing to do but enjoying the ride along the coast first and then the boat lifts into the skies. It’s fantasy, dark fantasy.

20141013 Snassouci Park_003Today I visited Sanssouci (http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Rajika/130/33/2008). The Sanssouci Palace is the former summer palace of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, in Potsdam, near Berlin. And I visited it 3 years ago in RL. Here in SL there Sanssouci looks just like it is in RL with one difference: there are not as many visitors and there’s no admission fee. Thus you can get a feeling of having been there without any effort. And maybe you dress according to its time. Or you might want to arrange an event there like a wedding. Anway, have a look!

Secretly British

Inspired once again by the “Living in a Modemworld” blog I visited “The Citadel”. Please read more here: http://modemworld.wordpress.com/2014/10/04/when-you-enter-the-citadel-who-might-you-find/
The sim is certainly obligatory for Dr.Who followers. For me it was more a place to take some nice and artful pictures and i felt very British in this environment.

Dear diary

It’s about time for another diary entry. So what as been going on? I went exploring to lovely sims inspired by reading the “living in a modemworld” blog. My first visit was together with Jenny to “Le Botanique”
(http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Miriam%20Brown/42/178/609), which is a beautiful creation of a sim dealing with materials and the advanced lighting settings. There’s not that much to explore but you get to see what is possible even on a small piece of land. And you can relax and watch the raindrops falling and inhale the atmosphere which I tried to capture in some pictures. And yes, I know we weren’t dressed according to the weather nor for that type of a sim.

I went to another lovely sim Sunday morning, August 3rd, also described in the same blog. That one is called “Dawn of Radiance”
(http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Lost%20Forest/42/19/21)
It will provide more occasions for exploring as I just saw the area around the landing point and a plateau above it. The beach invited me to sit down and enjoy. Kitty was online and we chatted while I took some pictures.

On the plateau above the beach there are meadows and some sheep and a nice place to sit and eat. Well, I had had breakfast already, so I didn’t eat and continued chatting with Kitty. We both enjoyed the environment while talking.

What else is going on? Dana is a class III pony at Stones and Rubber (sNr) again. She somehow comes back to be a pony again and again. So it is for sure one of her main kinks. As she can’t IM due to her restrictions, I don’t know much about how much she enjoys it there, but she seemed to be rather happy sending me some pictures about her activities. On August 1st, I managed to visit her in her stall.
Angelique is starting a new adventure very soon. It will be a longer and intense roleplay and we agreed on conditions. I won’t tell much here and right now but we are excited for her and very curious what news she will have to report. In preparation for this roleplay we also bought a new toy. Well it is not a toy, it is more a script to make play a bit more realistic. I will keep that for another blog entry coming up soon.

Anything else? Yes, qt returned from her every year summer trip and we took her to The Secret House twice where she could get some eye candy peeking through the large head cage we put on her. Well in the picture below qt didn’t watch the eye candy but was scared to be shown in a picture. And slave and rona? In the picture below they are not that much restricted. But that has changed and will be subject of another blog entry, maybe part of the enjoying bondage series for August.
