on a serious note - i think it's funny to portray women not wearing make-up as silly and childish when you're the one apparently caring so much about what other people are doing to their faces.
ask yourself: why do you find bare faces not appropriate for formal events? why does it bother you to see a woman without makeup? how does it effect you? why do you think it effects you?
you're so insistent that there are no societal pressures at play, that women are doing this exclusively for themselves and for the joy of it - then where does this urge to force it on women who don't find joy in it come from? why does it annoy you to see women in their natural way of being? it's a choice, but also there's a right choice, apparently, and anyone stepping out of line shoud be promptly shamed into submission. right?
"a little (whatever) never hurt anybody" okay and neither does a bare face. grow up.
When i say James Potter is the little spoon I mean Regulus hates having his back turned to anyone, hates having people where he can’t see them, hands on him while he’s unaware, but James loves being held at any given moment
Movie date? He’s pressed against Regulus’ side. Hanging out with Sirius? They’re essentially holding hands. He will plop down on Regulus’ lap randomly and all Regulus does is change the book to the other hand so he can play with James’ hair
My take on a human Rarity in a college au type of setting
-> is studying medicine because her parents want her to become a doctor
-> is interested in the biology part of her major at least (to her own surprise she's really into geology)
-> chose her current uni just to get away from home ; she's only keeping in contact regularly with her sister; only calls parents once a week
-> is really into fashion, would like to pursue it, despite her parent's wishes (she just needs a push)
-> bi
-> died her hair after moving out; got her piercings in high school, but hid them from her parents
-> is rooming with Rainbow Dash in the dorms ; asks her a lot to model for her ; they get along surprisingly well (after a few months)
-> met Fluttershy first, she patched up her bag that got ripped prior somehow
-> got introduced to Applejack through Fluttershy, she often patches up clothes and makes stuff to her and her family, so AJ is more than happy to supply her with materials when needed
-> met Twilight and Sci-Twi in their shared classes (could tell them apart right away) ; they introduced her to Sunset Shimmers
-> met Pinkie through Rainbow; through Pinkie she became good friends with Maud and Starlight
