Flames burst from her head, but are held in thrall by the tie behind her head, the licking tongues of orange fire in her ponytail blown gently in the breeze.

Her bow, never more than a quantum instant from her fingers, holds a menace all its own. A pluck of its string produces a tone, a song, the twang of another life ended, the note of battle. Each

... Wha?

Her head is on fire? That's all I got from that!

[nagasayswhat]

Someone better get that girl a bucket of water. Burning head is not good.

[stuporkitten]

I don't understand it but my brain feels sad.

At least she admits that there might be lesbians around who might fall into pits of despair and being burned by her hair for her Sue as well? >_> IDK

[oakenguy]

She is indefatigably attractive

Man, I hear that. My unearthly beauty needs carbs and electrolytes by mid-afternoon or it just stops working.

My unearthly beauty requires a gruff, well-spoken captain. Played by Robert Lindsay.

I would just like Robert Lindsay or Ioan Gruffud at all times.

Wow. This is ... purple.

And I haet it when a description tells me how I'm supposed to feel. Guess what, Binky, you don't get to decide that!

Maybe my guy hates beautiful people. Maybe he's a bitter misanthrope who'd rather gouge out her eyes while wearing a tutu on top of unwashed lederhosen.

There's exactly one time where a character's description tells you how to feel: when a Dawn Caste Solar Exalted flashes their anima banner. ^^

Or anyone with proven empathic manipulation abilities.

Haet Exalted, but that's just me. I get the reference.

Another thing: what is considered beautiful in one culture might be considered butt ugly in another like this one tribe that distends ears and bottom lips with flat wooden disks to "be more beautiful" or an African tribe that stretch their necks with special necklaces.

How many times are we inundated with what we're supposed to find "beautiful"? Or are told that this person/thing or that person/thing is "beautiful" irl?

Please excuse my off-topic rant.
