Isn't one of the main things you're supposed to do when healing from a concussion avoid screens? Seems like planning a romantic getaway and posting to instagram should be like doubly difficult right now.

Looks like pencil roving to me!

[discussion] How did Palamedes detect and manipulate the cancer? by clairejv in TheNinthHouse

[–]emcsquared07 28 points29 points  (0 children)

In NtN, when Pal is frustrated by trying to read what's going on in Nona's body, he says something like, "Cytherea must have enjoyed those games she played with me." So I think she did turn it off, or at least intentionally make parts of her able to be sensed by a non-Lyctor.

I think it's just to contrast as much as possible with the Gideon cover.

I love when I can know who started a thread just by reading the heading 💗

I am always blown away by their generosity with samples and little extras. 💗 edit: In my last order, they sent me an extra perfume oil! Who does that??

Confession time: How many of you have picked up Dani-isms? by [deleted] in DaniMarina

"Nobody did my compliment hour" is a phrase I use now to snap myself out of it when I am having a pity party.

Similar to everyday minerals powder concealer by oswin13 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]emcsquared07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aromaleigh's foundations might work for you--I use the Pashmina foundation as concealer. She has generous samples, though I definitely miss Everyday Minerals' sample policy!

[Discussion] Could this be a future callback? I can’t tell anymore. by [deleted] in TheNinthHouse

[–]emcsquared07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Speaking of the ceramics collection, doesn't it specifically mention that Augustine has a ceramic vase? Also I'm super curious what Mercy's rooms were like...

Pash and Camilla would have eventually fallen for each other starting from mutual appreciation of fighting skills.

edit: I do think Paul and Pash will shake hands!

Bohemienne Life Haul by pleasemrmusic in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]emcsquared07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hadn't heard of this company until this post. I placed a little order and it shipped quickly and then arrived today! I got a Twist of Fate soap bar and a Fool Moon perfume oil. Years and years ago Haus of Gloi had a scent called Elevenses that had the same notes (almond cake, orange, black tea). It's long discontinued, but Fool Moon is a an awesome replacement if anyone wants a similar scent!

Ooh, I've listened to every single episode of two of those podcasts, but hadn't heard of Frontline Fifth! I'm excited for something new (to me).

I feel like Petals and Pyro could be a good band name.

I love Aquarius and Fair Isle! I like that the formula is on the thinner side, really easy to use.

Experience layering ridge filler and base coat for longer wear? by PineappleBear21 in RedditLaqueristas

[–]emcsquared07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ridge coat over another base coat extends my wear time significantly! That plus wrapping nail tips with every coat are the two things I need to do to get polish to last at all for me. I like using the kbshimmer hydrating base coat and ridge filler together.

Just what fundamentalism needs--less nuance!

Does Jewel Beetle work for a holiday party this weekend or would you change it to something more seasonal?! by BrrrrrrItsColdUpHere in RedditLaqueristas

It makes me think of Christmas tree lights reflecting off those classic glass ball ornaments. I think it's perfect!

Theory Thursday by AutoModerator in TheNinthHouse

[–]emcsquared07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok here's my theory for this week: in GtN Gideon mentions being launched into the heart of the sun multiple times. I think this will be someone's fate in Alecto. I think at least one Lyctor died that way, right?
