Stylish Suite

This is my entry for "Stylish Suite"
Location: Celeste South, #4, Level 6.

Now being the schmuck I am, I just HAD to make notes describing all the points of interest.
Therefore I will post TWO pictures:
One shot "as is" and the same shot with numbers with the "points of interest" described below.
The description is a fairly long read but I do suggest you grab a beer and read and reference them to grasp the full appreciation.
Plus, it might just weave a fairly humorous tale for your troubles.


First, the unaltered shot:

View attachment 4352


Now for my points of interest that you can read below.

View attachment 4353

1.) Entertainment area:
This has a Sony Flat screen TV with wireless connections to two state of the art Bose Omni speaker lamps.
Below is assorted tunes and movies, ofc.
My two Certificates of discharge from the Arkadia Mental Asylum (located on the furthest SE corner of Arkadia @ island 324.865) on the islands bookmark the TV - 2011 and a repeat "visit" for 2012.

The lovely Royal Firefox is logging into EU while Jul and Kitten watch, probably to check auction on the latest fashionable clothing is my guess.

NOTE: Cyrus, pay special attention to the TV messages.

2.) Bar:
Fully stocked with beer, wine and spirits.
Also includes assorted non-alcoholic beverages for the occasional sober person that dares to enter the place ( Jul ).

Serving the adult beverages today we have Max Erdes mixing a wide variety of drinks and doing a fine and dandy job at it as you can see on the bar top, Evey has a nice one going and has decided to grace us with some skin and show off her dance skills, much to the delight of Raven Valcur and Davin - who both look amazingly composed.
(It musta been my famous "Roofy" Coladas!)


It also looks as if RavenJade might of had a sip or two as she seems a tad too overjoyed by Kabloui bringing over some munchies from the kitchen for the bar crowd.
Of course it could just be because of the "Future Vampire Victim" dancing in front of the Vampire Princess...


3.) R&D Station:
Where genius ideas are created.
I have personally and unofficially taken it upon myself to pick up on the late Dr. Milton Lee's research regarding Arkadia's wildlife and fauna, specifically the Oraton's DNA.
Another side project I am immersed in is with the recent discovery of an Arkadian underground and the study of it's locking mechanisms.
As you can see on the desk, I am currently working on a level 1 key as I feel once this solution is cracked, it should have connections to the higher keys.
Interestingly enough, the information I have gathered through the study of this key seems very much DIRECTLY linked to the source of the mysterious "signal" which brought us here.
All of this information is encrypted and cleverly hidden in the books to the right rear of the desk.

It is so well disguised that Evey herself looked at the books and scolded me for having so much pornography!
Hee hee...Little does she know.

But don't get me wrong - These are for more selfish reasons other than general goodwill.

You see, these findings will go directly to Toán Harvir who on a side note, owes me a few favors as he is a bad drinker and a worse card player - both of which I excel at.

As one of these favors, the Commodore has promised to put in a good word for me to Sundari Zhen, head of Arkadia's Archaeological Society.
Now if you have seen Sundari, you know that she is one good looking dirt digger!

And when I unlock some archaeological secrets regarding these keys, along with a good "word" from Commodore Harvir, Miss Zheng will have no choice to be so impressed with the likes of I, she will undoubtedly agree to come to my apartment for some serious one on one "Treasure Hunting", if ya know what I mean.
Crafty, aren't I?


But my number one priority, to which I am VERY CLOSE in completing is the recipe using only Arkadian specific materials for the Universe's Greatest Beer: aj502 Brew! (patent pending)

Lokia is seated at the moment helping me with some research as her and I have teamed up against my greatest rival and enemy, Moonshine, the scoundrel wannabe militia technician who somehow duped Cyrus into giving him the property rights at Celeste Harbor instead of me to construct Arkadia's only pub.

DAMN you, Moonshine! Damn you to Oraton HELL!!


4.) Kitchen and Dining area:
At first look, this may look like a plain and dull area but upon closer examination you will notice it is intentionally designed to exude an unassuming and simplistically sophisticated presence.
From the old Earth era retro Omegatron refrigerator and stove/countertop, to the aged Miluca wood 1 piece hand carved dining table and simple chair.
It was of no accident to keep this area uncluttered as any more than the necessary items would adversely affect it's fung shui.
(Unfortunately, this buildings wiring is faulty because sometimes when you turn, the lamps go off and on thus kitchen seems kind of dark atm...Call is in to maintenance.)


5.) Upstairs:
This is the most secret of all the apartment.
Only certain individuals, who shall remain nameless, are allowed up there. Some never leave...
Obviously as you can see, my sleeping quarters are against the north wall but the things behind that shoji will remain unannounced other than calling it "Pleasure Town" and hinting at certain toys such as Bacon Whips, Ham Handcuffs, Whipped Cream and a 9 Iron.



6.) Outside View (Shadow/Where's Waldo?):
This apartment has a great view of Celeste South TP grounds, the Eastern mountains and waterfalls, Southern landscapes and northern city but there is one thing that is missing.
ME!
Where's aj502?!
Well apparently the crowd was having such a good time that when I went out to get some more booze from (that dirty scoundrel) Moonshine's Bar, they locked me out and I was forced to watch the group from the planter outside, all the while tapping on the window.



Overview:
Although at a quick glance one might consider this a "Party Pad", I feel that with the specific arrangement and usage of the areas it is best suited in the "Stylish Suite" category.
Especially since some of the most beautiful and elegant avatars in the game grace my apartment and compliment it's layout.





Tippin'

P.S. Heh, how's that for some descriptive writing, Cyrus?
Feel free to use any of it for storyline if ya wanna.

 

I must say that party was a smash and I really enjoyed it AJ - i can't speak for everyone but damn you have a nice selection of booze.
but i must say you need to make sure Raven next times does not over drink because word has that when someone was nibbling on her neck they became very intoxicated

Oh i hope you dont mind but i did take a few so called fun books with me - will return them soon.

Level 7


“Most impressive rooftop layout wins!”

We believe that to be impressive means to be able leave an impassioned and lasting impression on the distinguished settlers of Arkadia. For this we would have to bring forth all the things that make Arkadia great. To create a rooftop space that exhibits both the laid back relaxing atmosphere, and the fun filled social aspect in one area.

Arriving on the Rooftop you will be welcomed with a glass of champagne and guided towards the barbeque area where we have a fine selection of mouthwatering Arkadian delicacies. The Flame Torches will light your way and provide an ambient light. Here you can sit and relax under the cool shade of the Pergola on the very trendy Wicker furniture, and enjoy the stunning un-spoilt views across the Harbor.

Then it’s time to hit the dance floor! Our specially designed dance floor will provide you with all the sparkle and space required to dance the night away. We have provided a little step so you can sassily sashay your way to the lime light, with purple crystals, fitted lighting and more to ensure your night is one to remember. The pergola provides ample shade from those prying paparazzi.

Recently installed just off from the dance area is a one of a kind water feature. This clever machine creates blasts of bubbles for some fabulous foam parties, or with a flick of a switch will ensure a thorough fresh water cool down from all that heated dancing. The comforting purple rug will lead the way to this area just off the dance floor, and then over to our more relaxing area.

Now feeling completely refreshed, we ask you to sit back and relax under the warming glow of the Reddo lamp, place your glass on the state of the art coffee table and unwind as the wonderful aroma of the Japanese trees stimulate your senses.

We look forward to welcoming you to our rooftop

Thanks to Fallen Angel, Kitten, Kimling and Nina for picture.

A bit about the decoration. On the left is the Lootius installation which conists of "pillars" with feffoids as guardians and a central "pillar" with one sweat as a lucky charm. Legend has it if you do a certain number of circles around this sweat lootius will bless you with a huge loot. Only thing is no one has yet figured out how many circles or in which direction you need to do for the best loot

In the picture Fallen Angel is trying the Headbutt technique (we shall ask him how his loot fared afterwards ;-) )

On the right is the Barbecue and refreshments area. Seating and artworks also provided as foods for the soul, for an enjoyable experience...
