A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Grasping at the Root


Well hey, it’s Kiba! Last time we saw her, she was…a little more colorful, to say the least, but now she’s sensibly shorn those rainbow locks for the summer. (Though truth be told, she could be wearing nothing but bird crap on her head and we’d still love to see pictures of her.)

    I’ve always admired girls who can pull off such a short cut. It puts so much empahsis on the face that there’s no hiding less than pleasant features. Luckily she’s gorgeous, so there are no such problems! On a side note, those plugs are beautiful.

    What is this board’s obsession with eyebrows? Every time there’s a girl on here with thin brows or drawn brows, here come a bunch of people like “ZOMG EYEBROWS!!!!!!1111″ I much prefer thin or pencil brows to thicker brows, which I’ve always thought look way too masculine.

    mirrormoon – it’s about the shape of the brows. i don’t care what size the brows are, as long as they are nicely shaped. no offense to kiba, especially since she said she’s growing them out, but they distract from her beauty. once they’ve grown in, having them shaped to follow their natural arch, will make her face even more beautiful.
