The toilet of flora is a manual for cosmetics back then, and instead of cochineal what is commonly used is some kind of vegetable dye, usually alkanet root. And animal fat was really only common in pomade, oils and shea butter were more common for rouge and lip balm. I’ve made some recipes from back then, they work great!

      Honestly I think it’s a great example of showing the importance of keeping true to your identity and not letting other people tell you what to do.
      Within the story, it seems that Ebony hates the posers more than she hates out-and-out preps. Posers try to be all cool and goffik to try to curry favour with Enoby and her entourage, but she finds it deceitful. At least the preps are honest about who they are.
      And then with the meta-narrative, Tara (or the character of Tara) got so many flamers but she didn’t show any signs of letting them put her off writing and she doggedly kept writing for months on end. Truly she’s filled with determination.

      I am a goth. It's rlly just a bunch of nerds who like 80s music and older people from the original movement but I'd say it's pretty chill. Kinda sad most people don't really know much about it outside of stereotypes, it would be nice to see some new faces.
      I've had a lot of trouble finding an actual list of the genres that fit into emocore anywhere, but I know it's very different and tend to have a much more aggressive sound and vocal style compared to goth (not that that's a bad thing, I can vibe w/ emos.

    Okay, confession time. In my senior year of high school my then bff and I were obsessed with My Immortal and would do dramatic readings of it for our friends in the park at night. I never got to have an emo phase due to Christian school dress codes so said bff had the brilliant idea to use our cosplay and acting skills (theater kids amirite) to dress up and do these little video diaries/vlogs as the characters. We spent a whole sleepover filming various scenes with her as Ebony and myself as Draco and Vampire Potter respectively. I still remember how powerful I felt in that purple Linkin Park t-shirt, those tight black skinny jeans, rubber emo band bracelets, and shitty plastic blonde wig. Unfortunately I had no idea how to bind properly (lemme tell u that ace bandage cinched tight did NOT feel good) and I also had zero idea what a trans person was, let alone that I WAS one, so I'm sure you can imagine the gender euphoria high alone was enough to coast on for the rest of the year. We filmed at 3am in a few different locations around our neighborhood and it was easily the best night of my teenage life.
    Needless to say of course, I am now goth and non-binary and have on two separate occasions forced and/or tricked my coworkers into starting a My Immortal read-aloud during our work meeting calls. They secretly liked it.

    I know she's described as imcredibly bootiful, so this is accurate to the primary text, but I'm still somehow left with the sense that you're too pretty to be a believable Enoby. Maybe it's the absence of teenage gawkwardness, sullenness and badly-makeupped-over acne. Either way, fantastic feats and how to wear them. 666/10.
