THoO - GUILTY CRUSH - CRAZY Collection - Eau de Parfum - Novità 2024 -
When reality is way more vivid than fantasy. A lipstick flavor on your skin. So sinfully delicious. This crush is madly real.
.
Nel rondò del piacere, sfrenatamente libera di essere, amare, trasgredire, condurre la complessa, intrigante danza della seduzione. Con un rossetto. Per vanità, passione, autodeterminazione, ribellione.
Racconto di identità, indipendenza, libertà, sfida. Per alcuni solo maquillage per altri un simbolo, storia di bellezza ed emblema di un’evoluzione culturale, dal medioevo ad oggi.
Colora le labbra e vai all’attacco, senza indugi, lipstick on! è una presa di posizione immediata, rivendicazione di femminilità, siamo forti, decise e impunemente sensazionali.
Il lipstick e il suo profumo, proiezione di ricordi, desideri mai svelati, fascino d’altri tempi, emozioni intatte di grandi sorrisi materni.
Ondeggia nel liquido caldo della nostalgia la nuova creazione Guilty Crush di THoO, quarto capitolo olfattivo della collezione Crazy, splendida narrazione con accenti fiabeschi e sorprendenti accostamenti aroma-artistici, mirabilmente interpretati dal Naso Cristian Calabrò e dalla forbita creatività di Cristina Mercaldo.
Guilty Crush svela nell’impatto iniziale una straordinaria voglia di vivere, brillante, spumeggiante la nota champagne frizza in un cocktail con amarena e fragoline selvatiche, poi emerge la gioiosa follia floreale di rosa e gelsomino resa pastosa nella texture da un accordo rossetto, un tono fuchsia da far scorrere con diletto su pelle.
Morbida e sognante l’evoluzione, lucente di vaniglia e muschi, calda e tenace nella suadente atmosfera boisé resinosa con legno di cedro e benzoino.
THoO ha creato, in occasione del lancio della fragranza, il lipstick esclusivo con la stessa profumazione. In perfetta armonia sensoriale questo profumo è da guardare, toccare, annusare, gustare, sentire.
You are a star. Dream gorgeous.
Molto raffinato il nuovo pack con box telata in una sottile nuance verde salvia.
Design Cristina Mercaldo, direttore creativo.
Creata da Cristian Calabrò.

Bernard was being haunted.
His sus-o-meter isn't up to 100%, but if he's being real, it never is. The downside of being into conspiracy theories was that you were only partially sure which one was more skewed than the other. One day he could be convinced Batman is more cryptid than man, and then he'd stumble on some fascinating witness accounts that make him rethink the Vampire hypothesis.
This time, however, he's fairly sure this sort of freaky shit only happens to people in those cookie-cutter horror movies.
… Except this particular ghost might be of midwestern decent, or something, because they sucked at properly haunting.
Example number one:
It was rare that Bernard had dishes piled up. He lived alone, and occasionally Tim would come to his apartment; with a couple of games, some takeout boxes, and a movie later, there would be way more things to clean up than a whole weekend on his own.
The last time Tim came over, Bernard didn't bother cleaning up for the night, and then the trash just…. Disappeared.
Not like 'a burglar broke in for some weird fetish reason, and my trash is now gone' gone, but more 'the trash is in bags, the dishes are clean, and I swear the air smells fresher' gone.
That was strike one.
He brushed it off because Tim had been there. It was unlikely he just went on a stress cleaning spree at Bernard's place but… Well, Bernard's caught him doing way weirder shit. It's fine.
(it's not fine. You just didn't move things around on someone else's turf.
"…Clean up?" Tim echoed back from the phone, sounding as confused as Bernard felt the following morning. "I-- no, of course not!" and then hurriedly continued to reassure Bernard he'd never do that. Because Tim was nice like that, even after Bernard low-key accused him of giving him the Gotham equivalent of pissing in someone else's yard.
So, that was strike one in the back of his hindbrain that something was up.)
Strike two and three came together.
See, in Gotham's economy, sometimes your employer doesn't have your paycheck the week it should be. Who cares if you need to pay rent through or your landlord will double your rent? Neither your boss nor the landlord in question, obviously. So what he usually did was have a nest egg the size of his rent just in case.
But this month Bernard had splurged a little too much, so he was short. It was nothing big, he was just five bucks short.
The issue was, that his landlord was paranoid and was already breathing down his neck for not paying the next month's rent the day before the new month started. Like clockwork, his landlord put a warning under his door, ready to evict him the same day the month started if Bernard didn't have the rent in cash the next morning.
He knew the eviction notice was at the door, but chose to ignore it because it didn't matter, he'd get those five one way or another by the end of the day.
By the time he came back, two things were out of place. The first was the eviction notice on his table. Again, no one moved someone else's shit around.
Strike three happened while counting his nest egg, and would you look at that! He had more money than he'd counted. Nothing ridiculous, just… He had those five bucks now.
All these little things were easy to miss, or misremember, but Bernard was not most people. But the catch here was… All these things were good things. Sort of.
So not only was this happening when he wasn't around, but they were happening to his… Advantage? He'd even call it good fortune if one was willing to ignore the lack of privacy… And maybe he would have, if this wasn't Gotham. Privacy was a mix between a luxury and a currency. Sometimes a kindness.
In some ways maybe it would have been an effective scare tactic, to mess someone's shit up, but this was not the way he'd personally go about it if he wanted someone to leave the building.
So here Bernard was, staring again at the dishes he had placed as bait, because he wasn't an idiot and tempting a ghost into anything remotely violent was stupid. The dishes were cleaned.
He squinted at the ceiling, then at the rest of his apartment, trying to gauge whether trying to make first contact was going to get him more haunted, killed, or turn him into a Saturday morning cartoon.
Finally, he picked up a cup. Not a glass cup, because why would he give the ghost any ammunition, but a couple of fairly clear plastic cups, a marker, two sticky notes, and filled both cups with tap water decently enough so a mild tremble would be noticeable.
The first sticky note said "Yes", and the second, predictably, said "No."
"So." Bernard sat in front of the cups, feeling halfway like a dumbass for doing this in the first place, and halfway like he's about to do the worst decision of his life because it might just work. "You from out of town, or are you just really shitty at this?"

thinking ab zane and kai's friendship fr fr,
how zane admires kai's strengths (and knowledge about people) and expresses it explicitly (straight up asking what certain things mean or why people are doing what they're doing) and he's completely genuine about it. like theres no pity or condescending nature towards it, zane just believes that the others on the team know more about life and people than he does. but kai would take that to heart more than the others.
his parents left without telling him why, he wasn't a very good blacksmith leaving nya's heavy lifting to provide for the both of them, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't become the green ninja. he was even the last of the core four to discover his true potential. kai has never been used to genuine praise. kai probably never truly thought that he was the best at something, or better than someone else. but when zane (a literal prodigal nindroid with a heart of gold) asks him for help and holds him at such a high regard? that hits HARD.
and zane, this assumedly perfect nindroid, never seeming to understand how to get people to like him, or how to understand the meaning behind peoples' words, and kai just understands all of that so effortlessly. and instead of being jealous, he just genuinely thinks 'wow, this guy's so smart!' ???
also the underlying idea of them both feeling responsible for everyone and judging themselves bc they feel like they should have prevented something bad from happening or at least taken the brunt of the attack to protect everyone else,, like ouch. the heavy-hitting guilt and grief, the fear of being the only one left in their family, THEY'RE SO AUGHHHH

After a while of laying awake with his thoughts, Louis had only just fallen asleep, when he heard the faint melody from "Waltz of the Snowflakes." Of course, he immediately knew whom he was going to find sitting on his desk. He had not dreamt of dancing with his nutcracker in a while, especially since taking real ballet classes, and he was a little confused why he'd appear again now. There was no need for Sammy to teach him anything that he could learn from his teachers anyway.
The mention of his teachers was immediately regretted, when Sammy suddenly disappeared in a shimmering cloud, instead appearing right next to Louis - but looking and sounding just like Miss Lambert. Louis was barely able to stutter a few words, when the figure next to him disappeared again, appearing in front of him as Mr Booth, gently caressing his face.
The thoughts were racing in circles inside Louis's brain. Only when he covered his eyes, letting out a quiet mix between a scream and a groan, could he finally utter some coherent words again. Sammy seemed to think his humiliation was the funniest thing in the world, as he could hardly stop laughing at him. However, he was quick to make up for it, spinning the topic back to the dance he promised to begin with. And dance they did.
[TRANSCRIPT]
Sammy: *humming Waltz of the Snowflakes (from the Nutcracker)*
Louis: *yawns* "Sammy?"
Sammy: "That's me."
Louis: "What are you doing here?"
Sammy: "I'm here to teach you dancing, dummy!"
Louis: "You know I've got teachers for that now, right?"
Sammy: "Is that so? My mistake."
Sammy/Renée: "You'd prefer someone more... authoritative?"
Louis: "Uhm, I-"
Sammy/Albert: "Or perhaps someone... stronger?"
Louis: "M-maybe-"
Louis: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
Louis: "Why are you doing this!?"
Sammy: *laughs* "You should see your face! That's true entertainment!"
Louis: "I think it's pronounced 'embarrassment.'"
Sammy: "Ah, don't worry. Your secret's safe with me."
Louis: "It's not like you can tell anyone."
Sammy: "True, but I can dance!"
Louis: *laughs* "You still want to?"
Sammy: "Of course! That's what I'm here for, isn't it? Just like old times?"
Louis: "Well, almost. I've had some training now!"
Sammy: "Well then? Let's see what you've got!"

well if it isn't the old consequences of my actions.
don't mind me i'm just writing frazie and norma into a trope i like.
frazie really resents norma for what she did to razputin. she can't stand to see him cry, especially at the hands of some older kid. so she decides to lash out and be really underhanded towards norma by pretending to be her friend and trying to get her into more trouble by being a bad influence on her on purpose. unfortunately, norma quickly develops a crush on her from the attention and actually starts to lose her strict rule-following personality a bit for the sake of impressing frazie. this starts to frustrate frazie because the "plan" is no longer working. frazie starts to realize that she is actually starting to enjoy spending time with norma and realizing that the two have accidentally actually become genuine friends. norma opens up about being glad that frazie gave her another chance and acted genuine towards her, especially considering what happened between her and raz, because she is looking for a really good way to actually make it up to him. and frazie feels incredibly guilty for being a big ole petty meanie when it turns out norma was trying to better herself this whole time and their whole friendship was based on a lie T_T
