Summer was good at it. Summer was a natural. But Marissa couldn't get the hang of it and kept cutting herself, and even though she didn't bleed a lot, Summer freaked out and called Julie Cooper, and Julie freaked out and there was talk about taking Marissa to the ER to get, like, a blood transfusion.
That was Marissa. She hurt herself even when she didn't mean to, and she just kept doing it, like she didn't know how to stop. Except she did, eventually, figure out how to stop. She died.
Marissa's dead.
She will never shave her legs again or watch The Valley or go shopping with Summer at Southcoast Plaza. She is Summer's best friend, and she will never, ever get to do any of these things again, which makes Summer feel like she shouldn't be able to do them either.
So she stops shaving her legs after Marissa's funeral and for seven days she doesn't put on makeup or paint her nails or do anything but cry, really. She lets Seth hold her and listens without hearing to him babbling about shiva and other Jewish things that Summer doesn't understand.
They sit Shiva for Marissa even though Marissa wasn't Jewish, and seven days later Summer's fingernails are chipped and her legs look like a forest but she doesn't care anymore.
She throws away the rest of her disposable razors.

Sadly, shaving does not come as a natural instinct to me. There have been unfortunate accidents.
