New

"what's a better way to begin a new year than giving your dearest avi a new skin? i can't think of any. or couldn't. so that's what i did. it was long overdue, long hindered by serval's persistent quest for the black hole eyes, oh, those black eyes, loved, elusive, craved for, surrounded by myths. finally, i let her give them up, after brushing them onto myself in front of my mirror one party night and loving it. there was no point exhausting poor serval any more, making her tp from shop to shop to endure eternities of slow rezzing once there. i could have the fun in rl instead.

during her long quest, i had kept peeping over her shoulder, seeing skins flickering by, and noting that there were oh so few black holes and a lot of everything else. which was sooo frustrating, until the quest suddenly was over and the blackness to serval's face wasn't desired by any of us any more. no more frustration. now there was a choice. oh dear, wasn't that rewarding. and i chose. and hope she'll feel comfortable with her new looks.

it's a funny thing how used you get to your avi's skin and features. i did hesitate. in the demo skin, she didn't look like serval any more. and clicking that pay button, well, it would mean the most expensive purchase in sl so far. what if it came out all wrong? i did click eventually, and of course loved new serval in no time. i hope she'll love it, too.
