Tamsin Horseplay, who had been aware of the wedding for fourteen months, said she had hoped to attend until Friday evening, when a shopping preview confirmed that an orange sofa she had been watching was going to be reduced to 50 lindens. “I was put in an impossible position,” she explained. “Obviously I love my sister. But these have separate cushion textures.” The bride, who had asked Tamsin to be her maid of honour, reportedly discovered she would not be attending through a WhatsApp message sent eleven minutes before the ceremony. It read: “So sorry babe, something’s come up. You’ll look amazing xxx.” The something was available in PG and adult versions. Tamsin denied that her decision showed a lack of respect for the occasion, insisting she had spent much of the morning thinking about her sister while repeatedly attempting to enter a region containing 47 women and a partially rezzed sideboard. “I wasn’t just sitting there enjoying myself,” she said. “At one point I teleported in and ended up underneath the shop. Nobody’s asking what sort of morning I had.” Family members initially assumed an illness or emergency had prevented her attendance. Concern turned to anger when Tamsin posted a photograph of her newly furnished virtual living room during the exchange of vows. The caption read: “Sometimes you just have to choose you 🧡.” Her mother’s comment beneath it has since been deleted. According to Tamsin, the sofas had been on her wish list for several weeks, during which time she had regularly visited the showroom to sit on them, inspect the stitching and imagine the life she might have if she owned them in orange. “They’re normally 350,” she said. “I bought two, so technically I saved 600 lindens. People keep leaving that out.” Asked whether she could have purchased them after the wedding, Tamsin explained that this would have meant spending the ceremony wondering whether she had purchased them yet. “That wouldn’t have been fair on my sister.” The wedding photographer confirmed that a space had been left beside the bride in several family photographs, although Tamsin has offered to supply a transparent PNG of her avatar. “I’ve got a lovely formal gown,” she said. “It’s probably more appropriate than what half of them were wearing.” By late afternoon, the sofas had been installed in a house Tamsin shares with a man called Dax, who has not logged in since August. Considerable time was then spent adjusting a rug so that neither sofa appeared to be floating. Meanwhile, her sister celebrated her marriage surrounded by friends, family and a spare salmon dinner. Tamsin maintained that she would make things right once emotions had settled. “I’ll take her out for lunch. Explain properly. Show her the pictures.” She has since removed both sofas after deciding the orange was too warm for the room. They are now in a folder called “Furniture — maybe”, alongside a 60-linden breakfast bar she bought during her father’s retirement party. 1 [ People & Drama ](https://thesecondliar.co.uk/people) --- ## Navigation - Previous: [Articles](https://thesecondliar.co.uk/articles.md) - Next: [SECOND LIFE UNVEILS MOST ADVANCED SEX BED EVER CREATED](https://thesecondliar.co.uk/second-life-unveils-most-advanced-sex-bed-ever-created-and-some-of-the-animations-are-worryingly-specific.md)
