WooHoo! How wonderfully gracious of you and your crew, Rider! Buffy will, of course, be there - probably several times. smile.gif

Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 12 2017, 06:38 PM

Khajiit and at least one representative of his crew will be sure to pop in at some point!

Posted by: mALX Dec 13 2017, 04:31 AM


WOO HOO! Awesome picture of that fantastic tree you made! (or fantastic picture of that Awesome tree you made!!!).

If there is going to be drinking; Misa will be there, lol. And Britta plans to come as well! If Calia or Mia show up; hide the liquer!!!

Can't wait to be there for your party !!!!! (I heard Buffy might be able to stand in as the bard!). Can't wait!!!

I'll come when I get off work. smile.gif

Whoo hoo Aravi! Looking forward to meeting you at last!

I really adore the way they have done Khajiits in ESO. I thought they were gorgeous in Skyrim, but Razumdar just blows me out of the water every time I speak to him.

And mALX, would it be best to have a Discord channel dedicated to the party? One we can set up in advance, then delete after the party is over? Or leave up for a bit so everyone can see what convos they missed?


Just ONE representative of your crew, Khajiit? Bring ‘em all! Spin that character wheel, as Grits would say!

Looking forward to seeing Dame B enjoy the Bosmer Spa with Gosse in between New Life quests!

Heads up: I might pressgang one of you into acting as interim host sometime in the early evening while I make dinner for mum and I. It’ll be frozen pizza - heat up in the oven and eat, so I shouldn’t be gone too long.

Oh, good idea on the Discord channel! Should I make one specifically for your party (like: "Haute's Saturalia" or something) - or just make one channel for all special events? (like an "Events" channel?)


** Speaking of Khajiit; I saw a stunning female Khajiit yesterday in Belkarth; she was just gorgeous! I haven't seen any Khajiit yet with this one's facial features; I wondered if they changed some sliders so they actually work now so we can tweak faces a little better?




Oh Haute = yesterday the doctor called and set me up for a test on the 21st. I will be at your party, but it won't be till late afternoon. sad.gif








Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 20 2017, 05:27 PM

A reminder to all my Chorrolite/ESO friends that the party is TOMORROW!

I would also like to add the Discord invite to the channel mALX set up for the party. https://discord.gg/YksAuJg It would allow mALX to listen in on the text chat and participate fully in the party conversations. Alternatively, you can use /zone chat, but it’s harder for her to keep up when the witty banter is flowing fast and furious. Especially after a few tankards of Voljar’s Spiced Mead . . .

Can't wait for your party! WOO HOO !!!

Posted by: monkeyemoness Dec 22 2017, 12:26 AM

Might be jumping the gun here but chances are I won't make the party. sad.gif
Waiting on the electrician who's supposed to get here around 5-6 pm (it is nearly 5:30) and I'm not sure how long the repairs are gonna take. The Squad sends their regards either way.

Posted by: King Coin Dec 22 2017, 03:30 AM

It was a blast! Thanks for hosting HER!

Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 22 2017, 03:49 AM

Khajiit hopes someone thought to get some pics! (This one got a few tongue.gif)

Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 22 2017, 04:46 AM

Ah, no worries!

I made sure to take several screenies throughout the course of the day. I have an early day at work Friday, but will try to get the screenies up as soon as possible.

Sorry, Grits and Monkey couldn’t make it! verysad.gif They were much missed.

Hazmick did make it, and that was delightful! And my friend Gray did pop in for a bit, though she didn’t stay long. After so many hours baking pies, I’m sure she was tired! But her partner Bear did come, with all five of his accounts, and I imagine all of his toons (he’s the master of spinning that character wheel!). For a while there we had five dancing fools there (his words, not mine!).

Our dear friend Gosse came twice, and of course Buffy, mALX, Khajiit and dear, dear Aravi came and stayed for much of the day.

Like I said, I will try to get linkies to screenies up ASAP.

Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 22 2017, 04:55 AM

Good stuff! It was very nice hanging out with you folks today.

And apologies again for the rug! rollinglaugh.gif

Posted by: Acadian Dec 22 2017, 04:58 AM

I'm so glad some folks got screenshots. mALX reminded to to get some so I set up to do so. . . pressed a wrong key, game went wonky, had to log out and back in, then *poof* ...is that a butterfly over there? (Forgot all about screenshots, lol).

Thank you Rider! You were such a gracious hostess and Maz's home looked absolutely magnificent for Saturalia! A table and bar truly up to the standards of Sovngarde itself! And that Saturalia tree . . . wow, just wow. happy.gif

Buffy had a simply wonderful time with so many of her dear friends. Even Reaper was able to put in a brief appearance.

Reaps was there?!

THIS!!! Awesome Host, Haute!!! My favorite thing to see was how you slid that cushion under Aravi to make her more comfortable! You can't beat that for smooth! Awesome party, I'm just so sorry I had to cut out so early! (had been up since 3 a.m.; had a very busy day = pooped out early)

I loved that bar just filled with liquor of all kinds; and especially the Saturalia tree! Really fun time!

I agree, there was a definite feeling of not being complete without Grits and Monkey's presence!


Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 22 2017, 02:03 PM

The Reaper that was there is not the Dark Reaper from here - but one of my friend Bear€™s many incarnations. He has an account name rd_reaper. Sorry for the confusion!

And of course Phae was smooth with that cushion! She IS a Thief after all!

Oh, I really thought it was Reaper from here! Bear must have numerous computers at his disposal, lol. He had several of his characters out in the same room!

You were an amazing Host, Haute! When you put that cushion under Aravi, I was floored by such a nice touch! And you had to host for hours and hours; I don't know how you did it!

I had been up since 3:30 in the morning; then had to go to the hospital for tests yesterday so was wiped out by 9 p.m. or so last night; had to leave your party early embarrased.gif But it was a blast; and you did a spectacular job on your house!



Posted by: Grits Dec 23 2017, 12:54 AM

I’m so sorry we missed the party – I had hoped to get home in time to catch the end, but it wasn’t to be. Thank you Rider and team for hosting what sounds like a wonderful time! I look forward to seeing the screenies. smile.gif

Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 28 2017, 04:07 PM

Sorry it took so long - work, then two of my toons demanding they get out and have fun . . .

Anyways, here's a recap of the Saturalia party.

https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/24348407737/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Gosse was first to come. We had a nice chat, but she couldn't stay long - the cold was affecting her arthritis in spite of the frost resist amulet Maz made for her.

Then others arrived, and of course, https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/27433918849/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/ There was much drinking, swimming, diving, and of course, a mud ball fight. Cherry blossoms left over from the Jester's Festival also made a welcome appearance.

Then the party moved indoors and https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/27433922279/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Then Feng showed himself to be a competent musician,https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/39209766481/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/


Before we knew it it was morning again, and Phae came out to relieve Julian of her hosting duties. It was back out again to the Bosmer Spa, https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/25344206498/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/.

Gray made a quick appearance between crafting writs to https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/25344205128/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Feng had had an - umm, accident with a hairball on the fancy bear rug earlier, and Mira was a good guest, cleaning up her mate's mess.https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/38502312004/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/had the rug looking like new again.

Buffy and Aravi chose to relax in front of the liquor cabinet later in the day while Phae provided music and Bear provided dancing entertainment. After a while, Alise took over the minstrel duties for the five dancing fools (Bear's words). https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/24348159627/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Haz dropped in later, so Alise got to show him around the new house. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/24348162497/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

The other guests were still enjoying the ambience around the liquor cabinet, so https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/39209726821/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/24348165877/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/39209728781/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Because Jerric and Argis never got to enjoy the party, Maz told them to come and have a party of their own when they had the chance. The next day they took it, and were joined by Buffy and Aravi. Can never have too much of a good thing, right ladies?

Of course Buffy can't resist bare pecs, and braved the cold once again to return to the Bosmer Spa. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/38560884294/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

As the sun went down https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/38560882594/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

And of course no visit to the Spa is complete without https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/38560881004/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/38560873634/in/album-72157667661144969/lightbox/

Maz, Julian, Phae, Alise and Argis would like to thank everyone for coming to Pariah's Pinnacle for fun, mud balls, and music over two days. What a way to warm up this old cavern!

Posted by: mALX Dec 28 2017, 04:42 PM


It was a blast! Thank you so much for throwing such a wonderful event! These screens are Awesome, I am so glad someone got pics of it all!!!

Wait, on that one picture of the diving spot, where is that? I missed that on the tour!







Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 28 2017, 04:46 PM

And a good time was had by all!

Thanks again for hosting Maz and Rider! Pinnacle is a magnificent holiday party palace!

Posted by: Acadian Dec 28 2017, 05:02 PM

Wonderful pictures, Rider, and thanks for sharing. Buffy absolutely loved the friends and dancing! happy.gif

Edit: Woot, I see you added a whole album of party goodness (below)!

Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 28 2017, 06:40 PM

There are more screenies, of course, so you can see the album here. https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/albums/72157667661144969

GAAAAAH, there was a camera in the bathroom? embarrased.gif rollinglaugh.gif


I got such a kick out of Aravi's embarrassment over her reaction to drinking that Orcish ale; and Khajiit's crew (who seemed to have a bad case of food poisoning, laugh.gif ) All around an AWESOME party, a ton of fun, and the best Hostess EVAH !!!!!!!!

Wow, thank you for sharing the party pictures! I had a blast looking through them. What a great party!

Posted by: haute ecole rider Nov 26 2018, 03:48 PM

Bumping this up as I am considering doing this again - it was so much fun last year.

But where to put the MidWinter tree up? I could do Pariah’s again, but it needs redecorating (stripped down in some areas for furnishings in other homes), and it’s cold for some people’s tastes (yes, I’m looking at the Bosmer girls).

I do have other homes located in warmer climes with waterfalls for cavorting and playing. Anyone have a preference?

Khajiit thinks Pariah’s is perfect for this event.

Posted by: Acadian Nov 26 2018, 03:57 PM

It was indeed a wonderful event last year, Rider. You were such a gracious hostess and the ice castle was beautifully decorated. Buffy has a small reinforcement spell she can use to boost the toe ring of frostwarding that Jerric gave her years ago so she'll be fine at the ice palace if you do it there again - especially if there a fire anywhere around. And, after all, 'tis the season of cold and snow. If you wanted to change venues, the Alinor free palace might be worth considering. It depends on what you already have there and how much effort it would be. My advice? Pick a place that would give you the most enjoyment decorating for Saturalia. Your decorating skill ensures anyplace you choose will be fabulous. smile.gif

I couldn't have said this any better! The Pinnacle was spectacular all decorated up for Saturalia; I still remember how amazing a job you did on that awesome tree!!!!!

But you are such an amazing host, Haute = anyplace you choose will be perfect because you have a flair for decorating and I've never seen a better host at any event! So like Acadian said; choose whatever house inspires you to decorate it for the season and surprise us!




Posted by: ghastley Nov 26 2018, 05:18 PM

Add my vote for "anywhere". Since the decorated tree is a seasonal thing, it would even work in the Alik'r Desert! biggrin.gif

Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Nov 27 2018, 09:51 PM

It must be held at Pariah’s. Khajiit has spoken.

Posted by: monkeyemoness Nov 28 2018, 02:16 AM

Pariah's Pinnacle having snow and such does inspire the Christmas Mood

Posted by: mALX Nov 28 2018, 02:53 AM


I like the snow too for a Saturalia event. It just feels festive when it snows. But that said, I did step out my door yesterday in real life and feel the biting icy winds; and they didn't inspire a Christmas mood at all! I ran into the house, cranked up the heat, and curled up under a quilt! So ... I'm neutral, lol.

Thinking about either Dec 18th or Dec 21st, depending on my work schedule.

There will be a grand hall with a banquet buffet, a gaming parlor, dance floor with musician’s stage, and a secret dipping pool.

Costumes are not required, but add to the fun!

Further details to come . . .

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT !!!!!!!!!! Another Rider party !!!!!!! WOO HOO !!!! I can't wait !!!!!!!!!!!!








Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 2 2018, 09:12 PM

All right gang, time for a vote.

As it turns out, I have both days off. As I did last year, this will be an open house format. I have both those dates open - Tuesday December 18th, and Friday December 21st (winter solstice). Would you prefer Friday over Tuesday? I am thinking it would work better for more folks, being the weekend.

if we do this December 18th, the party would run from about 3pm CST until 10 pm. On Friday I have no previous obligations, and the party can start even sooner.


Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 2 2018, 09:18 PM

Urg, Khajiit will be working on the 18th and will probably be busy on the Solstice. Gonna vote Solstice though because this one is more likely to be able to make that one (no chance on the 18th).

Posted by: mALX Dec 2 2018, 09:38 PM


Whatever day everyone else agrees on as good for me so far. I have both dates as open as possible; though I don't know about guests yet for the 21st (always hoping for family to come in for X-Mas).




Posted by: Acadian Dec 2 2018, 11:52 PM

Either day works wonderfully for Buffy. smile.gif

The Last Farewell

by Roger Whittaker


There's a ship lies rigged and ready in the harbor
Tomorrow for old England she sails
Far away from your land of endless sunshine
To my land full of rainy skies and gales
And I shall be aboard that ship tomorrow...

And should I return home safe again to England
I shall watch the English mist roll through the dale

For you are beautiful, I have loved you dearly
More dearly than the spoken word can tell

WOO HOO!!! And I hope your Pinnacle wins the contest!!!

Oh, this Pinnacle WON’T win the contest! LOL! I enter for the fun. It’s a riot to see other members’ homes too.

Oh, and if possible, please have the Essential Housing Tools addon installed and updated. Otherwise you’ll miss out on some really cool effects!

Khajiit regrets to inform you all that his crew will not be represented at the Saturnalia. This one’s sister, her husband, and their daughter are coming to the region and we will be traveling to meet them that day. Khajiit hopes all who are able to attend have a most excellent time!

Aww, Khajiit, I was looking forward to your shenanigans again this year! You will be missed!

And I wanted to remind everyone to have the latest version of EHT installed if possible. I have some awesome effects in place that will be visible to others in the group.

When you are ready to come by, ping me and I”ll add you to the group. On arrival, please take a few moments at the door (don’t move right away) to let the effects load. There is one right at the door that is quite charming.

Okay, just wanted to remind everyone that it's SATURALIA TIME!!!

Come on up to Hautee's Pinnacle to warm up, eat, drink and be merry! Never mind the location, the place is warm!

Essential Housing Tools updated this morning, so please update your addons before you log in and pop over. Ping me before you port, so I can add you to the group. It's needed in order for you to see the effects. And to remind you, when you arrive, wait at the entry for a few minutes to let the effects load. There's a pretty one right at the door, when you see it, you can move on into the home.

Oh, and DDA has a new video up on their YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkrwXTSWD1E And yes, our party home is featured along with 20 other fabulous creations. Feel free to check it out before coming by.

Posted by: Acadian Dec 21 2018, 04:24 PM

Woot! Nice little segment you have in there, Rider!

I'm not a housing enthusiast so have no interest in EHT or other housing add ons. My intent though is to install EHT today then uninstall it after the party. I hope that will do the trick!

Edit: Update. Installed EHT and my game seems to work just fine so I think I'll be good for seeing your effects later. smile.gif

Oh wow, Zendrya has joined DDA? AWESOME !!!! If you can get her to take you on a tour of all her houses, they are spectacular! I saw here "Santa's Workshop" at Mistveil Manor last summer, she did an amazing job on it! Have you seen her Coldharbour "Murkmire Maze" yet? (or her "Aquarium" if she still has it up?)

She is one of the ones I was telling you about from the Vanquish Guild; she is up there with NinjaMonkey in being the best of the best! It is so exciting that she has joined DDA = I have learned a ton from her modding/decorating!

What a fun picture of Julian!

Buffy was there for her 'first visit' of the open house and will be back later. We saw Illya (Gosse), Alise and Argis while there. The house looks spectacularly festive!

Posted by: TheCheshireKhajiit Dec 23 2018, 04:45 PM

So does anyone have any pics of the event? Khajiit would very much like to see some!

Posted by: monkeyemoness Dec 23 2018, 05:49 PM

I only got one but it was just a view of the Malacath statue. 'Course I had to save it from clipboard cause my screenshots aren't working rn so I'll have to hunt it down later.

Posted by: Acadian Dec 23 2018, 07:30 PM

Unfortunately, I only took one screenshot as well - despite so much gorgeousness at Rider's Party Palace.

I loved that the sun would rise right behind the statue of Malacath and set between the pair of battling warrior statues - https://i.imgur.com/9MOribe.png.

It was a fun time on Friday between visits from Chorrolites, DDA members dropping in to view the house, and JHartEllis’s House Hop run through (for his Twitch stream).

Unfortunately, those who could not be there were missed . . .

And of course, if you want to see the house, just ping me anytime you see me in game for a tour.

Posted by: treydog Dec 24 2018, 03:30 AM

It was a most wonderful experience- mud ball tag- waterfall diving- "find the pet" (the Indrik mount is waiting for her feathers to come in so she can fly).

haute was a gracious hostess and the home is lovely. It was a joy to see friends there and to share the celebration. Thank you so much!

You are the MOST Awesome Host ever! You always make everyone feel welcome, even when they are puking on your carpet or climbing on the food table throwing feces ... er ... I mean, dancing! AWESOME party, Haute = as it always is when you are the Host!

I had a wonderful time, and it was so very good to get together for another Christmas with you!


Merry Christmas Chorrolites!

Posted by: RaderOfTheLostArk Dec 19 2019, 01:04 PM

Thanks for opening up your home(s) to us, HER. I'll be sure to bring the *cue Jerry Lewis voice* LAY-DIIIIIIEEEEESSS that I recently created, my Breton Sorcereress and Redguard Templar, so that everyone can meet them. And of course, Cincy will visit as well, especially if we are going to do other activities as well like WB runs.

Posted by: Lopov Dec 19 2019, 07:35 PM

Nice, thanks for inviting us! I might bring Shonta Quassan to the meeting, but I'm not sure when, because we're celebrating a relative's birthday on the same day, so I don't know, when are we returning home.

Posted by: RaderOfTheLostArk Dec 20 2019, 09:09 PM

What time are people thinking of coming online tomorrow? I hope we can all be online around the same time. I'm fairly flexible but I can't be on for a really long time.

Also, is everyone going to be on Discord?

Posted by: haute ecole rider Dec 20 2019, 09:24 PM

The invitation is for an open house so folks drop in and hang out when they can. It’s not a typical guild event in the sense that people get together and go off to raid dungeons or kill bosses. It’s a time to socialize over food and drink. One of my toons can provide musical entertainment for dancing, and I have music boxes to play the rest of the time. Because I’m deaf I won’t be using Discord. Conversations will probably be in text chat. Of course the rugs here hide cat puke better than the ones at Pariah’s.

Posted by: Lopov Dec 20 2019, 09:40 PM

I won't use Discord either, my family is usually asleep when I log in, that's most of the time around 9 PM CET (GMT minus 1 hour). I might need to take breaks in between, because I'm a "call-boy" tomorrow biggrin.gif - which doesn't mean what you thought at first, but that I must be accessible via my cell phone to our staff in a suburban medical center, in case they have questions or anything goes wrong. If anything major goes wrong, I'd need to leave and drive there, but this hasn't happened in a long time now.

What a wonderful Saturalia / New Life open house dear Rider hosted! Dawnshadow in Reapers March was beautifully fixed up with a Festive-Forest feel that, not surprisingly, drew plenty of wood elves around to enjoy it.

I did remember to grab a couple screenshots:

Beloved Buffy was the first to arrive, but it wasn't very long before our dear friend Jerric came through the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256629551/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ in his holiday finery.

Of course, Julian was happy to give them a tour of her latest decorating efforts. The https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256633621/in/album-72157712263162676/ welcomed guests to our newest home. Nuzi provided drinks from the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256823442/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ Everyone loved the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256627281/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ complete with a little Crimson Dragonfrog for insect control.
The https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256821612/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ was particularly appealing, with live performances from the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256627891/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ They do take requests, though they know only three tunes. With a brief visit to the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256138363/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ to grab some holiday cookies, it was time to go through the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256137028/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/

Inside, Maz took over hostess duties and continued the tour. The https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256622136/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ was even more impressive, complete with a Keg of Mead for Jerric and a wide variety of wines, liquor and food for all. At the base of the stairs one could rest in a lovely https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256621631/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ and admire the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49276005047/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ However, the sound of music drew the friends upstairs, to admire a https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256814477/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ and a small https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256620491/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ In between, ahttps://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256813807/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ reminded visitors to https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256158378/in/album-72157712263162676/

It didn't take long for Shonta and Calia (Lopov and mALX) to join us, and with the AnderSNOW Sisters providing accompaniment, we christened the Outdoor Dance Floor with https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256643746/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ Jerric graciously left to let Lil come join the party, while Calia sent Malan. The three https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256832612/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ to strip down and dance with them in the basin at the foot of the waterfall.

Shonta and Malan had to leave, but the https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256830237/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256633821/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ for quite some time.

Some time later, after the ladies left to rest, the lovely Kalea Ko came to visit. Do Rah welcomed her and they spent some time https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/49256630561/in/album-72157712263162676/lightbox/ During this time Cincinnati came and visited briefly. He did partake of the open bar and buffet. Later in the evening, Julian entered our Dawnshadow in DDA's Festive House contest. We do not expect to win, but we are about having our Housing Guildies enjoy our efforts as well.

Julian, Maz, Alise, Argis, Phae, Do Rah and Stefan thank everyone who came and enjoyed our newest holiday home. It is a very different experience from Pariah's, and yet we hope all had as much fun here as everyone had at the cold yet cozy Wrothgar Mountain Home.

Sounds like a good time was had by all! Khajiit is sorry his crew couldn’t attend.

It may go without saying, but I will state that anyone who missed the open house yesterday is more than welcome to ping me while I"m in game to come visit the new house.

Another wonderful Saturalia at Haute's!!!! Misa (not Calia; though the confusion is probably due to the fact that Misa was drinking heavily enough to LOOK like Calia would if she was there, laugh.gif ) immediately spotted (and made a beeline for) https://imgur.com/KarZKZU and started competing with Jerric for having the most mug-fulls of Mead!


Next she headed over to the buffet area for some of Haute's Awesome Saturalia cookies!

The last thing Misa remembers was making a request for her favorite song from the AnderSnow Sisters:

She doesn't even remember the trip home from the party; but Malan said that from her drunken slurring and rambling descriptions of the trip to him it sounded something like this:


https://imgur.com/t0sTRJM



Malan did follow the weaving trail of her poor horse's hoofprints back to Haute's and enjoyed meeting everyone. (whether that feeling was mutual from the others is unknown, laugh.gif )

I left early to shuffle my inventory for the SneakyBo Auction tonight; and was still working hard at it at 1:30 this morning when one of the other SneakyBo Officers got on Teamspeak and reminded me that it was cancelled for two weeks! GAAAAAH! I missed the party for nothing!!!

Well, technically I actually had to clear that inventory out anyway because my Plus membership ends in three days = don't want to be locked out of my bank like some of my friends have been, urgh.


Wonderful, WONDERFUL party, (as your parties always are) Haute!!! You are an amazing Hostess!! Thank you so much for all you do for us every year throwing these AWESOME bashes!!!!

Misa drank like a banshee; and even whirled around on the dance floor after huge consumptions; but was unable to puke all over Haute's carpets in your honor; verysad.gif Being a Nord; she just has such an iron constitution that anything that goes in just ... stays in. Sorry; but she did try, laugh.gif

You have to let her have a taste of that meat from that dungeon. Sure to induce vomiting!

Calia was dying to go - and she would have been able to puke all over the place without even eating bad meat! Unfortunately; Calia always gets drunk and https://imgur.com/fNK6E0w (notice Buffy pretending not to know her by digging in her backpack...) so...she doesn't get invited to these things very often, lol.

Yeah, that screenshot was of her getting on stage and trying to help the performance by caterwauling singing along with the musicians and dancing. That was the first day she ever met Buffy; and she managed to puke all over poor Buffy right away (and make a REALLY bad first impression, urgh).

You mean that Cincy and I missed scantily-clad video game women?!?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Unfortunately, I came later on in the day, but I did get to visit Grits's new Khajiit character and a couple of HER's toons. HER's Dawnshadow is a spectacular place. Also, Evelona Mathieu got to stop by.
