a cosplay portrayal of Palamedes Sextus and Camilla Hect in Canaan House, standing on a dimly lit staircase against a brick wall. They are wearing matching dark grey cloaks. Pal is on a higher step, with one hand on his chin and one hand on the wall, looking thoughtfully at the wall. Cam is standing on a lower step in the foreground, holding a ring of keys while looking suspiciously over her shoulder.ALT

on one hand: new wig for Cam! have been nitpicking the previous one for quite a few months now & finally gave up on sunk cost. am pleased with this one's color & texture - it's also remarkably close to suitable straight out of the box, with the wig cap on and all my too much hair stuffed under it

featherbreak is wearing a loose grey shirt and a fuckass bob wig that is a very dark cool brown, with eir tongue stuck out and a peace sign thrown over eir eyesALT

on the other hand: i Will be straightening some of it before i trim it because right now she is dangerously. Sphere.

the sides of featherbreak's fuckass bob wig are so curved in as to almost make it appear to be a continuous circle around eir head. under the wig fibres, eir facial expression is somewhat :|-looking.ALT

ANYWAY IT'S KATSUCON CRUNCH TIME SEE YOU THERE MOFOS

update after preliminary trim + styling: she turned out gud & Katsucon was gr8

a close-up on a pair of hands, wearing fingerless gloves, holding bone fragments - it's Camilla Hect, but we can only see the Sixth House patch on her jacket and her hands.ALT
a cosplay depiction of Camilla Hect, looking somewhat bleak, dimly lit against an industrial backdrop, wearing a charcoal grey denim jacket with a Sixth House patch and black fingerless gloves, holding the glued-together fragments of Pal's skull over her face where it corresponds to her own skull. yowch!ALT

"The piece had been assembled from fragments, manually, and not by a bone magician. [...] It had been painstakingly—passionately—laboriously reassembled, from the skull of someone who, soon after death or symptomatically during, had exploded."

saw this terrible drink ad on the train

picture of a canned cocktail drink ad in a public transit train car. it's a terrible and slightly racist ad full of "Juan" puns to sound like "one" because there's tequila in itALT

wait

a slightly closer up photo of the adALT

WAIT

a close up on the picture of the drink can showing a sugar skeleton with the drink name abbreviated as "TLT" (for tequila lemonade tea) under it. this is like a bad TLT AUALT

are we in a shitty au bubble

a cosplay portrayal of Palamedes Sextus and Camilla Hect, against a photo booth backdrop covered with pixelated orange flames. Palamedes has wavy dark brown hair, rounded rectangular browline glasses with a spectacle chain dangling from the arms, medium grey cloak and top, and dark brown eyes. Camilla has dark brown bobbed hair, a charcoal grey moto-style denim jacket, and light grey eyes. They are standing back to back, both looking at the camera, unsmiling. In one hand, Camilla is holding an audio recorder raised to mouth level.ALT

"Camilla’s clear grey eyes should have really been Palamedes’, and vice-versa with his winter-time irises."

a cosplay portrayal of Nona from the Locked Tomb series, in front of a tank of long-tentacled jellyfish (pacific sea nettles); she looks like she's underwater because the tank takes up the whole image. the jellyfish are bright yellow, with sweeping white tentacles that span the whole tank, and look like they're glowing.ALT

"Nona was depressed, but it only took her feet being in the salt water to make her happy again. [...] This was because there were heaps and heaps of jellyfish in the harbour..."
