After being threatened with demands for buttsecks from a certain pinay fashionist were she to receive the winning bid on my date, I was relieved to have been auctioned off to a less adamant bidder. Following the Date for Down Under charity date auction on February 15, I briefly chatted with philanthropic sweetheart, leah Pleides (the winning bidder on myself and Newdoll Nikolaidis), about her non-buttsecks-related expectations for the ensuing date (although, I mentioned buttsecks a lot on our date … because she wore a buttsexy dress). Casual or formal? She couldn’t decide, so, we did both.
During the following day’s date, I had an opportunity to introduce leah to some activities and spots that were new for her – which was fun. While test driving a Sentra at the Nissan sims she drove us over the guard rail, into the water and onto a rocky outcropping. Strangely enough, when she tackled the looming loop-d-loop she pwnd it. Straight track fail, but curved-in-the-air track win?
Next stop was Straylight’s 7Seas fishing hole, where she got to see my lack of skills with a rod. Dream up all the puns you want. I didn’t catch a single fish at my former obsession, but she did, and we did get a chance to catch up with one another’s interests in-world and in real life. I got a peek at some of leah’s real life artwork and learn about her aspirations in transferring her talents into Second Life™.
Winding down, we headed to Bogart’s Jazz Club. After questioning whether wearing black would be acceptable, leah teleported in wearing a dress with a plunging everything line – neckline, backline. It seemed like all the lines were competing to see who could get the lowest. A waltz or two later we stopped off briefly at Monkeh Island to visit Sean before teleporting to Luna Jubilee’s platform for shenanigans with Express Zenovka and Strawberry “♥” Singh before heading to bed.
It was uber fun.
You can read leah’s account of the night’s events on her blog.
