Description
A story behind it, as always.You ready?
I used to eat glass as a kid. I must have been about 2-4 years old, and I can always remember being taken out into the back garden of my Gran's house to spit it out. There were no plastic cups for me to use there, and for some reason, I didn't quite grasp the concept of drinking what was in the glass. Instead, I bit it.
I never got injured or anything- but some blood had to be involved here, and as always, it's fake.
The glass was surprisingly hard to smash, but it had a nice ring to it. I wore safety goggles to do it, so don't be sending health and safety my way!
I give my full permission for ~TaintedArt and =darkclub to display this deviation in their club galleries

in most of them, yes. it's so hard to find models willing to this kind of thing- and also to get their free time coinciding with mine

I ate paper...
It was at first a dare
then I realized "hey this junk's tasty"
first grade

haha! i have no idea why i couldn't grasp the concept of NOT biting when i drank from glasses.. i remember doing it a good few times!

well, glasses are just.. Bite-able especially when you know you can break them *would mutilate foam cups*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hehe. foam cups are so edible, although not digestible
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I wouldn't know, they didn't taste as good as paper so i spit them out and had like... Imaginary castle wars with them ^.^ I'd make such a mess hahaha
my ma would get so pissed >.> Even know I have an affinity for destroying foam items

oh hey, I know it's weird to ask so suddenly but. My friend Shawnna started a club yesterday
about ''alternative'' fashion (mainly) a place for clothes designers or people who depict fashion as a main focus in their photography, to share ideas and just admire others work yadayada.
But well the last "club" we started together took a nose dive very fast, >.> mainly due to lack of advertising I think..
So I was hoping you might be interested in like, giving us a footnote link in one of your journals ?
I'd really appreciate it and I'm sure she would lol so far it seems like a solid idea. I'm sure it would be a hit among the fashion photographers who do more darker stuff (or even some that don't)
the club is ~Toxic-Threads so if you'd think about it and get back to me that'd be awesome

thanks honey!
(by the by, i wanted to ask your advice on the 'Mature Content' side of things, when you have a mo. I've been told by a club that my works need them- eg. Fixxxer, Bad Blood. Do you think the one's i've put them on are right to have them? and what about this one? it says excessive violence, gore and blood in FAQ... i'm not entirely sure whether they're that bad

I err on the side of caution because of the sheer amount of fragile little minds on here, always ready to bitch and whine if they accidentally see anything that isn't Disney fluffy bunnies. My figure if my art is showing something that couldn't be seen in a film rated below 18, it needs a MC tag. Sometimes I MC stuff that I don't think needs it because it's easier than dealing with people's bitching. We could both argue our points based on horror movies with a 15 certificate if we chose to.

hmm, well, i've had no one bitching, that's the thing. It now seems most of my gallery will be off limits to friends I want to see them. Too bad i guess.. It'll be in an update on my journal.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
glad you like it! but fairy lights! that sounds almost as crazy as glass, it just involves mains electricity in your case!!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hahah.. they were turned off I think.. er i cant really remember I just remember eating looooads of bananas, so that my stomach wouldnt get punctured or something... the real outcome of me trying to free faeries was me hating bananas... seriously I cant stand the smell. ew. Xp

awww...a cute little hellion you were, are, i should say. i can imagine you staring up at me, i smash thee back end of a whiskey bottle off, handing you it with the neck down [like an ice cream cone], tieing a little skull and crossbone bib on you, and patting your head.
the lighting's good, the blood effects are very good, and i like your hair, reminds me of mine aaaages ago, but in reverse. [red naturally, black ends.]

i need a s kull and crossbones bib now.. for some reason, i'm compelled to buy one for that very image
glad you like it. not massively fond of my hair right. needs a trim and a dye as usual, but i can wait
