Solid Snake eyepatch Vs. Black Bulter eyepatch


I'm starting to wear makeup again, which might sound sad to the people who wear makeup because it's socially expected in their profession, but as someone who just likes painting on my face, it makes me very happy to have the energy to put into painting something that will be washed away in eight hours.

I've never been very good at applying false eyelashes, and the lack of depth perception isn't helping with that, but I'm enjoying the opportunity to practice. Plus, I don't have to get my eyeliner even when I'm wearing an eyepatch!

I don't normally like asymmetry in hairstyles, at least not my own, and I usually detest messy buns in semi-formal outfits, but I think that the way it echoes the overall asymmetry in wearing an eyepatch.
I think it's the pearl pins that really set it off.

Knave of Hearts eyepatch

Willow made me a velvet eyepatch.

I tried to dig out some of my black velvet clothes from high school but I seem to have gotten rid of most of them.

Today has been a long frustrating series of dealing with banks and doctors with a large ornamental petunia on my face.

I echoed the fullness of the pentunia with a lace cravat, tatted wristlets, and a petticoat under the Gunne Sax dress.

Now I'm matching my eyepatch to my outfits.

I've got to stop hurting myself. I got an infected tooth and somehow it spread to my face and now one eye won't blink. Nor will that side of the mouth open properly, which has made eating a trick.
At least I can rock an eyepatch, once I've sewn a giant petunia to it.
