Shameless SL Advertising... And small update as well.

Okay, Secondlife RPers. Have you ever pulled up your search bar and typed in "RP" or "roleplay" before? Know what you get? Medieval. Fantasy, gorean, and the ever-so-classic description "dark." I dunno, maybe you're into that kind of thing. But have you ever searched "sci-fi" and found a furry-friendly sim that looks halfway decent? If you're like me and actually want GOOD RP, then you get this a lot... And don't you dare reccommend Doomed Ship. It's restrictive and dumb.
BUT!
After many moons of searching, holding out for hope that I'd find one sci-fi furry sim... I found one! I invited Night, and she took it upon herself to include links and do some fancy photo work, found in her journal here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/4267173/ It's called Furry Abyss. It's a somewhat empty city-station right now, but it's seriously got so much potential, it's incredible. A lounge club, apartment rentals, a mall area, and SO MUCH ROOM for roleplay, including a forest that seems to have plenty of cuddle oppurtunities. The forest is beautifully done, complete with ponds, tree-bridges, and little toy boats floating in the water. The city, however, is my favorite place to dwell... Simply because it was so heavily inspired by the Mass Effect series's Citadel Presidium. It's a bright, clean place with realistic trees, animated water, and--get this!--NO LAG. Now, I don't have a badass computer... In fact, it's a bit of a dinosaur with top-of-the-line [for its time] guts, and I tend to lag and crash in certain commonly-visited areas... I couldn't turn shadows on facing the sea in a sandbox. But this place is outstanding in the sense that it is so beautiful, yet it doesn't lag hardly at all, even though they are building another city level up in the sky. If the admins get their way, this wonderful place will be open to the public as a meterless free-form RP sim. So why not pay a visit? Give some linden donations, help them buy a stream, and hopefully get that club up and running so they can hire some DJs to spin some epic tunes to some RP! I mean, really... How cool would it be to roleplay in a club? *does that anyway at laggy-ass IYC*
So, there's that wonderful bit. And as for my update...
Some of you know what a shapeshifter is. Really, more on a social level, more literally known as a "social chameleon." I've gotten extremely good at it, right down to fooling some of these "naturally discerning" folks that are supposedly impossible to fake in front of. Well, there's one thing that can really wreck a shapeshifter's mind, and that's falling for their own mask. Buying their own role, so to say... And I've done just that. I got a brutal reminder today that I've begun to lose myself to this face I present so often to others in hopes to make my job easier... Well, my job did become easier, but it's taken a few anxiety attacks to realize that I'm literally erasing my true self. My voice is different, I hold myself differently, my reflexes... I won't even get started on the panic attack I had when I realized my reflexes had changed... Either way, this "reminder" I had cleared my head a bit... Had an extremely loud rant to myself up in my favorite mountain, probably scared some nearby residents, and I feel loads better. So here I go, trying to shift back to my former self... Thank God I was reminded before the transition became too difficult.
EDIT: lolWHOOPS. Put the wrong link in for a bit there... Aaaaaanyway...
(All my work is digital)
Sketches/lines (full body or otherwise) - $20
Flat colour - $30
Shaded - $40
Add a background - $15
Add another character - +$10
Make explicit - +$5
References/character sheets/whathaveyou - Roughly $40, depending on content.
Desktop backgrounds - $30-50, depending on content.
Rules: I don't do extreme fetishes (vore, scat, etc.), species makes no difference to me (feral or otherwise, I can manage), and I'm open to a limited amount of trades. My preferred method of payment is through the mail. Solid cash, checks, money orders, it's all good, so long as you put it in an envelope you can't see through under light or include a paper note to disguise the contents if you're unsure. I will use Paypal if there is absolutely no other option for you.
Note!: If you are a returning commissioner, you may get a thank you surprise in return to your address! :D

But as to your update I kind of understand what you're saying, at times we call sink ourselves so far into personas we almost forget what exists underneath what we've constructed.
Maybe now i can make my character better xD
