RMK Gothic Bunny Hunt: The Madhatter

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: Alice lurked around the Queen of Heart's castle. She overheard two guards talking about catching the mole "tallHat." Without a second thought, she snuck into Queen's dungeon to rescue him. After all, this was her fault. He was the one who smuggled information to her. He was the one who challenged her to come in person and see for herself. "Do you understand now Alice, why I want to leave Wonderland?" tallHat breathed. "The soldiers are crazy. The queen is crazy. The cats are crazy. The bunnies are crazy. The only sane soul in Wonderland is myself. I only pretend to be crazy, it's everyone else who is truly mad."

Hunt prize NV tartan pants come in male and female with fun decorative deck-of-cards elements. The Blue Blood hunt prize comes with two different texture styles. If you have been out on the RMK Gothic sim and seen a really cool flying cards and clock effect when someone types, that is the Theater Chain gacha. Everyone who sees this loves it! There are different colors and clock faces for each of the main Alice in Wonderland characters plus secret rares in the gacha. I highly recommend. *thumbs up*

STORYLINE: A year later, Alice helped tallHat create a new identity,"Lewis Carroll," and settle down in London. He continues to make hats, albiet in different style from his old trademark top hat. Alice is still Alice but she left investigative journalism. With the help of her former informant, she penned a fictional story about Wonderland. When her new boyfriend comes to visit, she wears a little something extra special just for him.  - the end - 

Alice is wearing sweet intimates from RoA in the Alice theme. It also comes with a black hairbow (not shown). The book prop she is holding is fantastic.

STORYLINE: As Alice was strapped down into the guillotine, the White Rabbit burst into the room and whispered something in the Queen's ear. As he talked, her face grew redder and redder. She stormed over to the Jack of Spades and whipped back his long bangs, revealing a tale-tell smudge of strawberry jam on his cheek. "Come on," the White Rabbit untied Alice, and grabbed her hand. "Wait! Who are you? Why are you suddenly so big? Where are you taking me? Do you know tallhat?" "Not now," he grumbled, and looked around nervously. Then in a burst of speed, he dragged Alice behind him. In the distance, she heard the Queen bellow, "Off With His Head!"

STORYLINE: The White Rabbit led Alice to a tea party in the middle of a grassy field. The chair backs each had a name such as White Rabbit, Easter, and Playmate. She was so confused. What on Earth was going on? "Espionage," the White Rabbit said flatly as if he could read her thoughts. "No one suspects a cute bunny may be spying on them. We serve as the Queen's eyes and ears. But you are not here in Wonderland to learn about us. In fact, we are a secret you better keep. You see, there is a war coming."

Surprise Event! 3/24/2013 22.00 Japan time at the RMK Gothic Rose Garden (or 6 am SL Time). Alice in Wonderland live performance by Dance Master Rokia and DJ Yukineko. Come in an Alice in Wonderland theme outfit, low lag, no huds, or facelight. The live show should be amazing. Here is last year's live performance:

RMK Gothic Bunny Hunt: Off With Her Head!

(click to enlarge)

STORYLINE: A fall from such a height should have resulted in injuries, however Alice was unharmed. She fell on top of the March Hare who had been waiting for the White Rabbit. The March Hare grumbled insults at her she dare not repeat. He dusted himself off, then checked if his horn or fingers were broken.

The outfit for the March Hare is actually an outfit for the women with a nice mesh jacket and corset shirt, but I thought this menswear like outfit had so many nice elements, I could not resist flipping it for male by switching the jacket and shirt. Results I think are good, especially with the MnM rigged boots. Fun!

On Him, The March Hare:

Hat, pants, collar, tie, pocket watch, trumpet: Dreaming Maiden McTwisp (Alice in RMK Bunny Hunt #15)(free)
Hair: LALA Moon Heinrich Ash Beige (free)

Shoes: [MnM] platform shoes *PS-001M (400L)

Jacket, Shirt: Fatewear Smith - Tundra (tinted) (750L)

STORYLINE: Card Soliders suddenly surrounded Alice. The Jack of Spades stepped forward and said, "Yes, she's the one I saw eating the Queen's tarts!" Alice was immediately arrested. Outraged, she blurted, "That's a lie! I saw you eating the tarts!" But it was no use pleading her innocence. The Card Soliders and Jack were all Spades. She was marched before the Queen of Hearts. To her horror, the queen appeared quite mad, "Off with her head!"

The Queen of Hearts was a lot of fun to put together. Outfit comes with Lolas Tango applier. Alice is wearing the kimono by Tomoto that has lots of cool details in the Alice in Wonderland theme. There is even an outer apron for this wonderful outfit, and a hairbow too. Oh, and something else kind of fun, The Ace Spades is known as the death card. This was lucky draw from the landing point. The outfit has a blue violet back, hood and stockings, and hair.

Dolls of Christmas: Spain

(click to enlarge)

The next destination for the Dolls of Christmas tour is Spain, home to my hysterical, talented, and big-hearted best friends at the sandbox. You awesome!

In Spain, Nativity scenes are very important. People compete for Best Nativity with large and elaborate displays. Figurines are big selling items and very collectable. Even famous people are made into figures you can add to your manger scene. My fun friends from Spain shocked me when they revealed just how important one particular figurine is to a successful nativity display. If you want good luck for the next year, you better have a Caganer!

Feliz Navidad y próspero año nuevo!

Dolls of Christmas: Sweden

Our next trip on the Dolls of Christmas tour takes us up north to the home of my friends in Sweden.

On the darkest day of winter, December the 13th, the people of Sweden hold flickering candles and give thanks for the sunlight with Saint Lucia showing the way with song, warm coffee, and sweet lussekatt buns. Lucia (or Lucy) means "light." She wears a long white dress with red sash and headdress of lingonberry branches and candles.

Dolls of Christmas: Germany

(click to enlarge)

Our second stop on Christmas Dolls tour is Germany for my lovely posing partner and the owner of this blog.

The Christ Child is an angelic bringer of gifts to the good children of Germany. Originally meant to be the Baby Jesus, the Christkind is now usually shown as girl or woman in gold and white.

Like a Sith version of Santa Claus, Knecht Ruprecht doesn't bring gifts to nice children, he brings horrible presents like coal to naughty children and he may spank them with a twitch too! Alpine nations even have more sinister looking Krampus who has goat horns and cloven hooves. But for my modern interpretation of Knecht Ruprecht, I take inspiration from German goth rock band Oomph!. I really like this character, Knecht Ruprecht is cool! We need a character like this in America. lol

Frohe Weihnachten und ein gutes neues Jahr. Ich hoffe du warst brav und das Christkind war bei dir und nicht Knecht Ruprecht! ;)

Dolls of Christmas: Japan

(click to enlarge)

Secondlife makes it possible meet and grow close to many people around the world, even those who dont speak the same language! With the help of translators and being able to "show" instead of "tell," it becomes possible to communicate in ways text based social networks can't. This Christmas I would like to celebrate the season by honoring my friends and their Christmas Traditions.

First up are the clever, ambitious, and talented folks from RMK Gothic who named their new Christmas Tailcoat after me. I feel humbled and amazed! They tell me many interesting things about Christmas in Japan. The biggest surprise is Kentucky Fried Chicken. They must make a reservation for their Christmas KFC chicken months in advance! It's just not Christmas in Japan without the Colonel.
