While I was out islandhopping, I found my way to a certain square in the middle of the untravelable voids called Timherry Island (143, 125) . I had no better idea what to expect, but when I walked in, the sun shifted to the regional timezone — a basking crescent different from that of the noir mainland — and it naturally set the mood for my exploration through this… furniture store. Now, those two words sound boring on their own, but?I found this locale to be quite?delightful.?Apparently Sherry Case, who I've never met before but certainly hope to, crafted most of these comfy gems by herself. The texturing and quality of craftsavatarship?is pretty good! As I walked around, the diversity became greater: in addition to furni, I found clothes, plants (unfortunately intersected flat texture cutouts), poofing poofers,?a LOT of rugs, and?OH! a beautiful area like one you'd find in a hospital gift shop selling lovely trinkets. I got a cute Hello Kitty plush and a "Love Grows Here" sign and put them together at the library in an appropriate place. <3>

I'll say it again, the warm glow of sunrises and sunsets are among my fave things about SL. Later in the wee hours, that pffting purveyor of sultry style, Torrid Midnight (it feels so weird to address a friend formally…), invited me over to her and Water Rogers's new house. She explained to me that she'd never had?a homey homehome like this before, and that she selected the decor for a reason:

"I've never really liked 'bright' as far as in my room or my house, I like muted and warm colors… maybe some light mixed with dark… and low lighting." -Torrid Midnight

When I beamed in, Tor was poised behind her desk, which you must really look closely at. The house has a fantasy feel to it but apart from having to fly up to the bedroom, could likely be constructed out of non-prims. Subtle shadows behind the paintings on the walls (including one that looks suspiciously like George Washington, observed the Launa!) add extra depth and dynamics. Drawn in yet? You can visit… Water and Torrid's home :), Chartreuse (223, 198)
