As you can doubtless tell from looking at my blogroll, I’ve been reading a lot of blogs about SecondLife. Particularly as it relates to BDSM, but not exclusively. One of the interesting contrasts between people surrounds the question of whether or not SecondLife is “real”. I know I’ve touched on this several times in this [...]

Being submissive isn't always easy

I’ve been looking over some of the titles on my entries and had to laugh. It all sounds so dramatic and serious! It hasn’t been, it isn’t. One thing I’ve been finding in SL is that everything is magnified. When last we left our hero, I was nicely restrained on the Patio at StoneHaven. StoneHaven [...]

This evening I got home, took care of everything I needed and the settled in for a nice evening in SecondLife. When I rezzed in at home, I found that Miss Wednesdai was online, but not at home. At that point, I was wondering where I should be? Should I stay at home until Miss [...]

Thoughts on being a good sub…

Thank goodness for good friends! I’ve been struggling a bit the last day or so and managed to nearly make a bad mistake, but a good friend set me straight and I think I’m making progress. At least I see a path I can follow. This posting is going to be one of those ones [...]

Some tender moments, an oops, Miss puts me in my place

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife
Tagged with , , ,

SL has been a bit of a stormy experience the last couple of days. People, myself definitely included, have been having all kinds of troubles teleporting, random attachments are suddenly detached… It took an enormous effort for us to meet in StoneHaven, but Miss Wed and I were finally able. She immediately put me on [...]

I never thought this would happen

I am owned. Truly, completely Owned. It’s a feeling like nothing I’ve ever had before and I never want it to go away. The serenity, security, safety in having an Owner who cherishes me just leaves me breathless. When Miss Wednesdai put her collar on me we agreed that we were trying it out for [...]

What I did, What I didn't do, What I need to do

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife

I really don’t want to write this post, I really don’t want to have to do what I have to do, but I also know that I absolutely must do it and I will do it. I am referring to Krystal here. I really would rather not associate with her. As I mentioned in a [...]

It's getting serious, and I have a new home!

I spent a good amount of the drive to work this morning writing a long entry here. Then my Mac froze. Let’s see if I can reconstruct… To summarize, I just had the best day of my SecondLife by a wide margin. I’ll give details below, but suffice to say that I’m feeling really good [...]

I did it, I took the coward's way out.

I had SL up, but marked busy and away and just futzed with email for about half an hour. I figured that eventually they’d tire of playing with their marionette and leave me alone. I was partly right. I should mention that I did ask to be released, said I was being summoned and had [...]

Another realization

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife
Tagged with , ,

I have started taking steps to protect my keys from the public, but the iRemote is still set to public and I have realized something: I really do not like it when someone just grabs control and does whatever the hell they feel like without my involvement. I know my profile says go for it, [...]

On Toxic People and other random thoughts

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife
Tagged with , ,

More stream of consciousness coming… As I’ve been thinking about being a sub, I’ve been reviewing transcripts of my interactions with Miss Wednesdai. A few things have come up in that review and I want to explore them a bit. Please join me on this journey. As an aside, this is one where I’m actually [...]

Ever wanted to have a serious opportunity for self-reflection? Arrange to be bound tightly in chains, gagged and locked in a cage for several hours. It can become an almost zen-like experience. I’m also not sure if Miss Wednesdai reads this blog. I hope so. Whether she does or not, I am going to be [...]

Endurance testing…

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife
Tagged with , ,

Yesterday, Miss Wednesdai decided to give me a test of endurance. I think I’ve mentioned StoneHaven before, it’s a great spot filled with an amazing collection of people. StoneHaven Patio is where I met Wednesdai, so there’s lots of good reasons to like it. The Patio is a small open area with seating around two [...]

I did something last night that I didn’t expect, didn’t plan on and when I first started here, didn’t think I even wanted. I was collared by Wednesdai Breen. Wednesdai is the one I had my first real scene with, and we had another last night on the Patio which was a lot of fun [...]

My first SL beating…

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife

Almost didn’t post this, but this wouldn’t be a real chronicle if I didn’t. Last night I committed the grievous error of sitting in someone else’s chair on the Patio. To leave a lasting impression, the Lady in question proceeded to paddle me nearly senseless. Actually we had a very good conversation and the beating [...]

Some reflection, some thoughts, some insights, some conclusions

As I was driving in to work this morning (and I swear this is the last thing I do that’s SecondLife related until I leave the office this evening!), I had a chance to reflect on what I was feeling and where it was coming from. I’m a big proponent of reflection and digging to [...]

Get your priorities straight, Corvan!

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife

I just re-read what I posted before. I am whining. Time for a quick priority update: My Wife. She needs me, more than ever before and I need to be there for here. If that means other priorities slip. So be it. Our daughter. She too needs me, even if she won’t admit it. Work. [...]

A less than stellar day…

So I got into this SecondLife thing as a way to relieve stress and leave my RL troubles behind for a while. Right? That was the whole idea, was it not? So how come I’m feeling more stressed right now? Well, that’s actually a pretty simple question to answer really, there are a bunch of [...]

I’ve finally, reasonably fully, stopped flitting around looking for the latest toy and actually started playing. Yes, this morning I popped over to Restrained Freedom to buy their Personal Cage and Body Binder Deluxe… Moss looked far too comfortable in her Personal Cage last night and besides, did I mention that I’m a serious gadget [...]

After beating myself up a bit for wasting a lot of time and money (wasting the time bothered me more than the money), I decided it was time to start actually looking around the world and meeting people. you know, the whole reason I started this. I had heard about a place called StoneHaven from [...]

What about actually playing?

So with all of that bloviating out of the way, how about actually playing for a while Corvan! It’s funny how your RL personality comes through strong and clear when you first start. Well, it did for me anyways. My first week in SL I: Spent a ton of money on every cool toy I [...]

Who am I? Pt 3

Written by corvan. Comments Off Posted in: SecondLife

Since we’re talking about SL here and because I already know it’s going to be a major part of my SL, I’ll mention that I’m very much a bottom by nature. I’ve very heavily into Bondage, enjoy a certain amount of pain, but really get off on restraint. My SL profile says that nothing brings [...]

Well, that was interesting, I hadn’t actually planned to go there at that point, but let’s just roll with it. Let’s talk about about RL. Bare essentials first, I’m a middle aged man, a software engineer (no surprise there, eh?) with a wife and two kids. That’s the simple part. After that it starts getting [...]

Who am I?

Despite the fact that it was the last question posed, I think the question of who you are in RL is the most important one because it drives everything else. I was about to say it drives being someone else in SL, and I think a lot of people play it that way, especially the [...]
