My new pal Lyra

May 21st, 2009 | Brandy | →

Damien Fate of Loco Pocos, asked last night in Plurk if anyone would be interested in blogging about the new release Poco Pals, and I was one of the many people who said “Me!” and received a Poco Pal of my very own.

Now you may be asking what a Poco Pal is, and the quick answer is that it’s the cutest and most customizable stuffed animal I’ve ever owned in SL. If you haven’t been living under a rock recently, you’ve heard about Loco Pocos, the adorable tiny avatar in many animal forms, and these are simply a toy version of those avatars for the non-tinies who want to bring cuteness with them wherever they go. I asked Damien to pick any animal to send to me since I couldn’t decide from all the possibilities, and fate – Damien Fate that is! ;) – sent me a lion pal I promptly named Lyra. I highly suggest that everyone take advantage of Grab a Pal Day starting at midnight and lasting through all of May 21 to pick up a Poco Pal of your own at 50% off.

Lyra and I began our first day together hanging out at an outdoor café while I explored her other menu options. Fashion was a big part of the conversation as we discussed which shirt to wear and if she was in more of a skirt or pants mood since she has all those options available in different styles and colors. We just about wore ourselves out playing with all the eye and fur color combinations too.

Meeting Lyra

As the day progressed, we ended up at Loco Pocos Island for a little fishing, and I really began to feel like Lyra and I were connecting. We laughed together and smiled and glared and ran the gamut of emotions with her beautiful face and all the available expressions for it.

Fishing with Lyra

After a full day out and about, it was time to go home and unwind a little. All my friends commented that somehow Lyra and I had even begun to resemble each other as we spent more time together. I’m not sure I really get what they were saying though. What do you think?
