small pica, or philosophy

Jo, twenty-one. Ingénue, Byronic hero, and madwoman in the attic all wrapped up in one messy package and tied with red ribbon. Posts: fandom, folklore, fripperies, faces, fancies, fiction, physicality, phantasmagoria. Likes: sparkles and doom, words and pictures, comfort and strange, food and drink, blood and lace, past and future, dresses and boots, macabre and whimsy, forests and cityscapes, red lipstick, music festivals, cats, Tam-Lin, and knives. Looks like: this. Dreams like: this. Prolonged exposure to terrible television may accidentally result in a trilogy.
