Is "Firefightress" a Word?

Miss Merlin Imp built this wonderful stasis chamber for me. I believe there was a bit lost in translation, but perhaps Engrish is appropriate for a doll box for a Qlippothic action figure.

Also, two photos from my most recent shoot with Sysperia, as well as the other Muses, are available for your purchase in the real world at http://SysperiaPoppy.imagekind.com/.

A quick reminder..The founding members of the Bloodwing Foundation will most likely not be available until the evening of July the 5th. I will be on constant vigilance for uncontrolled pyrotechnics.

Overwhelmed by Generosity

Thank you Sysperia and Zoe for a wonderful shoot! You were so generous with all of your birthday gifts! And thank you Midnight for the heart design from Bare Rose!



I am especially grateful for the back and panel Zoe installed in me..which can easily be installed in the front as well without gear scripts going haywire. If you get close enough you can see three of my Sephiroth from that opening. In this one you can just see Da'at, which is not actually a Sphere in itself but the synergy of the other ten..a quick diagnostic of that one and and the Doctor can view a Gematric readout of my operational status.

And..there seems to be a matter with Taiyou that needs to be straightened out.

Looking back to find myself again

Yes, my deva had a birthday as well, but I tend to shy away from such things. I would prefer to celebrate on my rezday, a month and seven days from now.

But as long as we're on the subject, here's some irony for you. This is how I looked my first month of existence, when I was a greeter at Bare Rose.


And yes, that's the same skin I'm wearing for my doll form now. I was so naive back then to the ways of humanity. I was still more a flesh golem than a machine, and more a machine than a living being. But infusions of Fae and Qabalistic magick have changed me drastically.

What was I thinking with this one? Oh yes..fireproof. Thank goodness for alchemical fabric treatments!



And who would have thought this picture would ever be possible again?

A quick update

Father..Dr. Mason..has propped me up on the couch with a glass of hot oil. I think I will sit here a while as I come to gips with what has happened.

Things started going downhill last night..due to RL issues I was unable to appear at Tensai's ship until half an hour later than scheduled. By then Lunar had appointed Emilly to run the vent. I would not begrudge her a chance to make more Lindens since she has been so busy setting up the Taiyu. I also told her I had to adjust to not being host anymore as well, which stunned her. She never did respond well to fatalism.

I couldn't even find the costume in my inventory from the last Pirate event on the harbor. I had to scrounge something from the back of my inventory. I had missed the return of the Cat's Grace. Just as well, as Midnight was delayed as well. My mood was sinking rapidly, so we left together for important discussions..which I fear may have tripped off another situation.

The most shocking thing however came tonight. Bloodwing is back. And Dr. Mason is still here as well. In different bodies.

Pirate Ships and Weddings

The Crew of the Cat's Grace had landed in Steelhead, looking for booty to plunder. Then they ran into me. Debating whether I was a lass or a treasure..pawing my dress until I unsheathed my claws. Of all the time for invasion, when Christine McAllister and Sir Edward Pearse were celebrating their handfasting! When scurvy beasts threatened the faerie I shifted into battle configuration.


I lay heavy fire with my Malaprop repeating rifle..one of them had a magic wand that dropped giant stones, denting my armor at least once, and almost drowning me if not for Deputy Sushi who quickly rose to the surface, then rammed their ship while I shot her masts. The ship shook with each blow..until it floated into the air and out of the city.

They will be back. I can sense it..tonight when I host Pirate Night. But this time all of Steelhead will be with me, as well as the Captain of the Mare Angelus.

So..I dusted myself off and slipped back into my oxidized dress. The new Hotel was..majestic. I have never seen the like. Lunar has truly outdone himself.





I had the pleasure of dancing with a couple friends before I felt something stir within me..I wasn't sure what. I went back to patrolling the coast, suspecting a return of the Cat's Grace.

When I returned..even though somch in the city has changed so recently..there was a lingering sense of something..familiar..that had just come and gone.

Passing the Torch

I have been asked why I have not reapplied for the Hostess position in Steelhead. The fact is that I am feeling overwhelmed at the moment..possibly even depressed.

I am too worried about keeping my RL job to run events with an expanded SL job decription.

The Foundation will be receiving an infusion of RL currency so we can pay rent on the parcel as far into the future as possible. Then I will not have to scramble to pay rent each month.

If I do continue to work in SL it will be purely because I enjoy it. The previous contract was extremely generous, but all good things must come to an end.

I don't want this nagging voice in my head while I'm hosting saying "We need more attendees! If I don't make X more in tips we'll be living in meQal's old tent!"

So for now, I'm closing my tip chest and locking it tight. I expect the occasional infusion from modeling or some future venues in the works, but nothing near what I made before.

I wish the best of luck to my successor. I will be available for advice and possibly as a stand-in should the need arise.

Enough.

you neglected to mention
then dare ask me why?
