From Japan to SL

As one of the things that can be done only in SL, I have been writing several articles regarding death. Pin2 said that ”Anyone comes into play with Temi will be killed once at least.” But I did so only with my close friends^-^ I became aware that there is no difference between face of sleep, faint, and death. This time I asked Sachiko to be the model. This is in a coffin at the last Halloween.




Also in the RL, it is hard to distinguish the asphyxiation and death only with a picture.
Regarding the sleep, there could be some difference that I wrote at the previous article, sleeping ugly.




Sachiko is beautiful even while sleeping. The above is in a coffin, the below, my bed, both of them are the same SS. Is it my imagination that only the one in the bed looks breathing calmly?







  

Recently Refugee is taking nap at the bench. We have a feeling of bad manner to look on someone’s sleeping face, but also losing something if not watching.




Refugee is very cute, but there is a Japanese word Sleeping ugly. Own sleeping face is cause for concern, since it is not a simple closing eyes or unconscious face, but may exhibit some strange facial expression.




I asked Pin2 to sleep on her bed at her home. Sure, she is cute! The elements of the sleeping ugly are said to be, slightly opened eyes and wide opened mouth while sleeping faceup. In the net, there was a person who accidentally watched a sleeping face of very beautiful lady, and was so disgusted that he tried to avoid such chance. Naturally no one would like to watch a sleeping face of a dirty male.




So, I intentionally made Pin2’s eyes and mouth opened. But she is cute after all! There was a comic where a girl was sleeping like this, and her friend put some salt in the mouth. Sure, I would like to try it too^-^




Regarding myself, it is not cute at all as usual, a kind of Sleeping ugly. Someone said that any provoking attitude can be accepted if her smile and sleep face were cute. Sorry but neither one is for me. But it could be OK since at least one person in RL does not feel disgusted by watching my sleeping face.





  

I found some software to find a look-alike, so I tried it for my friends. For Miruru, here is Anastasia Bezrukova from Russia, who is said to be the world most beautiful girl,




For Refugee, no suitable one was found in the software, and I picked up a Russian female soldier that has similar atmosphere. Refgee’s last name Zenovka is also Russian.




I expected cute children for Pin2, but there came many male faces. The color skin did not help. So, I picked up one arbitrarily, Violetta Antonova, Russian beautiful girl.




It is not always that look-alikes are found. For Sachikio, all results were all unlike in my point of view. Then I picked up a person who I think so beautiful as Sachiko, Gal Gadot who played Wnder Woman. She is ranked high position in the hundred world beauties. She is not so alike as Sachiko, and there are some drawbacks in Sachiko’s face, but they say love covers many infirmities. In Japanese, we say, “Avatar mo Ekubo”, Avata means bleb, Ekubo, dimple.




For myself, many male faces came out at the first search. Getting over from the shock, I hunted after my alike myself. Amy Adams; who played Amelia Earheart in the “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian”. 　She was so cool! I had not seen her when I made my avatar, but I became a hot fan of her. After all, everyone would follow the own ideal character automatically when making an avatar.



Look-alike:　http://www.pictriev.com/?lang=ja
There is various software for look-alike. I used the free one above. It is useful to find the name whom you have only pictures.　Also, it comes with masculine, feminine, and age judged by the picture.

  

Pin2 with short pants. Her legs are so long! The right is a picture I introduced before. Is the balance against upper body different? I showed this her and she said she has many variations with different leg length.




I took some fresh pictures of the shape that has shorter legs she said. The left is me that has rather short legs and long torso as an avatar, so her shape could be commoner?




But still her legs in the top picture are substantially long! I have seen many male and female avatars with long legs, but she could be the longest considering the balance.
Could I make her surname as “Mommy-Long-Legs”?





  

My friend Miruru advised me that it is hard to visit the spot of my pictures in the blog. Actually, I felt difficulty many tomes in visiting the photo spots later. Surprisingly I found that this Tokyo was made of two cities, one in the sky and one on the ground.
Tokyo in the Sky: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SSOC/183/250/1105
Tokyo on the Ground: http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/SSOC/90/183/29




Most of the spots I introduced were on the ground. I visited this beautiful bank many times but I was not able to find it this time! The LM in these SIMs may be restricted to some designated spots, most of them are set in the sky automatically.




The city on the ground can be reached from the sky by touching this signboard, pointed by SSOC PRO. The altitude of this LM says 28(ground), but the spot reached is at 1104(sky), that makes it confusing.

Another way to move is to follow this sign, both of them I found newly this time and had never used before, I moved back and forth between two cities without noticing it.




Following the sign and passing through a wall gap, you will come to the bottom side of the city. Then jump from here to reach the ground.




The drop site was near the bank. If you are riding Segway or something, you can avoid the disgraceful pose. I am using the Double Crick TP (DCTP) while walking around, that is to double crick on some spot to move instantly. Here, the landing spot changes according to the area. In the sky, it works normally, but on the ground, it depends. Near the original landing spot on the ground, it brings me back to the start, but when doing it other area, it takes me to the sky. Even in the sky, DCTP on the road a bit away from the sign board will take you to the ground. This is the way that I used without noticing it.
