Fairy Creeper plants, an arbor, and storytime!
From the release notes:
The little story below is a little longer than intended, but to see the nitty gritty details, <3 Scroll past the silly story for details on the plants I am releasing! :)
-Saiyge
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Silly Story
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once upon a time there were, what I would call - a troupe of drunken and mischievous fairies. Now, these fairies were so accustomed to being in a state of drunkenness - being loyal followers of Bacchus you see, that I don't think they knew what sobriety even felt like any longer.
Really- I think its best to think of this bunch as the Fae equivalent to the Bad Girls club, or like ... the Jersey Shore of Oubliette.
Anyway - drunken fairies, yes.
Well, they weren't always in a stupor you see. They spent an awful lot of time lounging around, tending to the plants in the forest, being pretty, being a little lazy, being petulant. - They weren't so terrible at first. They would imbibe on mead and drops of Moonsycle dew, they would get tipsy occasionally, but they weren't really out of control until say - Chrystos and his fantabulous tavern.
Chrystos was mortal, and he was fancy. When I say he was fancy, I mean... in a rugged manly lumberjacky way. The fairies had no idea what hit them. If his good rugged looks weren't enough, if his bright white smile were not devastating on its own, if his clear green eyes were not so entrancing... well, there was his wine. And Chrystos' wine? - was more fancy than Chrystos.
"What does all of this have to do with plants, Saiyge?" you ask? Oh. I am getting there. I promise.
One moment spent in earshot of Chrystos' booming, infectious laughter mixed with one drop of his special house wine? Those fairies were entranced, and in love. I don't know about you - but I can't think of a more drama filled situation than a bunch of drunk wine-bathed fairies in love with the same man. Oh... Poor Chrystos. So now we have really drunk, really alcoholic, really belligerent and jealous fairies - and one poor (but burly) wine maker. What we have my friends- is some hi-jinx.
We know in theory, if not by experience, what happens to lovelorn, angry, alcoholic types. Things that were once important sort of.... start to pale on the priority list. Our fairies are no different, and what happened is a mini-war, but a far more dangerous and perhaps amusing one, because these were angry, drunken fairies who have lost complete control of their aim. Curses meant to cause a nose to grow three times its size were overpowered and missed their target, causing trees to skyrocket to impossible heights. A jinx originally meant to create itchy shrinking undergarments landed on an innocent bystander who then could not seem to keep their clothes on no matter how hard they tried - nor could their children, or their children's children! (Thats another story, but you can see their descendants to this day, running around the grid in the most unexpected of places!) And the real point of this story - would be the fairy who tried to make herself taller and more human seeming in the hopes of enchanting Chrystos.
Sometimes when we are under the influence, we tend to see things a little differently and make poor judgements. In this case - our fairy went to a less.... benevolent creature and received a potion. I am not exactly sure what the conditions and instructions were for the potion - But I do know that when she went to drink it, her ankle was ensnared by a creeping plant which caused her to trip over a tree root. The potion flew out of her hands and landed on a turtle... Now this turtle, (from what the trees can remember) just went on its slow, but merry way, spreading drips and drops hither and yon - and the fairy, unable to find the potion bottle, was ENRAGED. She cursed a blue streak so foul and long that it is said she broke her voice and could never utter anything but a forlorn croak afterward.
Before she was through though? She slurred. She slurred an awful lot. Over time, anywhere the turtle wandered, strange things started to happen. Plants grew and spread, things that shouldn't be possible started coming into being. No one really knows what new things we will continue to find, but I can tell you that the reason Ode is always spring, is because that turtle wearied of the long winters, and chose to retire to the meadows of Ode with his family. -On oubliette though, you can see the evidence of what that seasonal imbalance has caused, in our towering trees and our out of control plant life.
Which brings me to ....... The Fairy Creepers! You can *try* to take care of just one of these creepers, but left unchecked - you might find it spreads rather prolifically. Is it invasive on other islands? I have no idea. But should you choose to take a set of these home, I would urge careful tending of these creepers.

Papercut Studio Skybox! (and a few other things)
A couple of new things for you! I've invited a friend of mine (begged/pleaded really) to write the release notes for said new thing, as I am not feeling very well and cannot seem to string words together. :)
Also! In the main room of the store is a tree sitting to the right of the door, over the next several days other creators will be placing gifts under the tree as a part of the Giving circle, so please be sure to stop in and grab a present for yourself, you may discover someone new! :)
If you have not yet gone and picked out a tree, mine are out twinkling in the lower bit of the store! The Gumdrop gatcha is out front in the snow as well!
Andddd with all of that - Onto the new thing <3
Special thanks to Amyla Wakowski for taking pity on me and writing this up super late last night. <3
---------------------------------------------
Ohai! This is Amyla guestwriting for Saiyge to tell you about an exciting new pretty thing from Balderdash you could live in!
?
Papercut Studio Skybox (outside)
The Papercut Skybox is a studio-style structure featuring whitewashed brick and wood floors and lovely natural wood, stone and colorful artwork embellishments. The entry features a porch and three large arched multi-paned windows.
The door is scripted to open and close on touch. The door is framed by natural wood that "grows" out of the wooden porch and floor, outside and inside the skybox.
The interior is spacious, permitting one to move one's camera freely without constantly running into walls or other obstacles -- perfect for those who build things at home, or just love freedom of camera movement indoors.
?
Papercut Studio Skybox (inside)
The back wall features a fireplace with a gently burning fire in a stone fireplace, beneath beautiful woodcut artwork with tasteful pretty sparklies twinkling in the background. The woodcuts and built-in shelving on either side of the fireplace feature StriƩ-style painted backgrounds in a rainbowy spectrum of colors. (StriƩ means "pretty stripey paint effect," I think? Is pretteh and stripeh and good-things-ending-in-eh-sound...eh.)
This whole wall is SO PRETTEH viewed in-world so I strongly recommend checking out the display model, available here:
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Oubliette/52/184/821
The Papercut Skybox has a footprint of 20 meters by 30 meters and is 43 prims in total. I thought I was going to have to pick up some of my alt's pets to free enough prims to rez my sample skybox for research purposes, but no! Even I and my prim-hogging alt had enough prims to spare to rez this skybox! I've done a lot of skybox shopping and this is a freaking bargain for low-prim and PRETTEH.
Permissions on this product are Copy and Modify. The skybox is packaged in a rezzer for easy rezzing and placement of your skybox and its scripted door. Priced at just L$300, the Papercut Skybox is ready for you to take home... well, really, *become* your new home today! :D
Available in-world at Balderdash:
