Sorry to tell you all she was disappointed that there wasn’t a cute demon boy under there:
Scene from Kpop Demon Hunters when the demon boy band wears long dark coats & high crowned, wide-brimmed hats (mimicking a Korean anthromorphication of Death?) as they start to suck souls out of their audience; the lighting is dark, moody, & very blue

I love that stuff! All of the “moon” ones are amazing, & if you like Neon Moon you’ll probably like “Beach Day” too… most perfumes mess with my sinuses & give me headaches, but not these

Everyone STOP & look at all these adorable bees asleep in a sunflower! A bee slumber party in a newly planted Brittlebush (Encelia farinosa). 😍

4 little bees snuggled down in a big golden flower & a little bee tush peeking out between the bottommost petals (sleeping UNDER the flower!) The flower was bouncing around in the wind but they were cozy AF

😍 is that iris “Final Episode”? I planted one last Summer & it just bloomed!
Final Episode Tall Bearded Iris in the morning sun: Ruffled pale lemon top petals change to brassy gold at their midribs. The plush violet color of its falls lightens at their edges, accentuating their gentle ruffles. Reddish brown tones overlay the top half of the falls.(cribbed from schreiner’s irises’ description)
