~about Kraken Stories~

Kraken Stories is thing Hilde, MaRy and I do, because we all have plushy air krakens. They will send each other messages or show them interesting things they found. Maybe you are also interested in their stories ;)
Albert and Cutethulu already did a small story at Emporium Vernesque, you can find it here in Hilde's livejournal. Based on that we want to make some further stories, so here we go^^

Well then, this is Mildred's (Albert's sister) answer to Cutethulu's message (the first part of our current story) and to Kraky:

"Hey guys,
after Albert read the poem, he felt like he should to something to become stronger, so he left for the gym...

I'm not sure, if they have exercise machines for eight arms..."

~about what I did on ILD~

Another International Lolita Day passed without me thinking really about it^^
I had an editorial meeting for the Clockworker that day (the first time ever), so not much time for me to dress up. But since I had to do a project for Visual Anthropology which was to make a photo series containing a human and a process or some kind of transformation I did it with Lolita (and Steampunk since I had to leave for the editorial meet-up).

This is what I came up with:

I hope you like it and had a happy International Lolita Day!
