oxymoron from New Pretty Town:
"Before she pressed it against her face, Tally realized that it was the same color as the cat-vomit pink of the sunset, with a long snout and two pink little ears. Smart adhesive flexed against her skin as the mask settled onto her face.
Tally pushed her way through the drunken dancers, out the other side of the procession, and ran down a side street toward Garbo Mansion, wearing the face of a pig."
-Tally tries to disguise herself so no one will know she's ugly, but the mask she picks doesn't really cover anything.
Why do you think Tally chose to wear a mask to the party that was deemed "white-tie"?
She didn't want anyone to know she was an ugly in Pretty
Town, and she wasn't exactly dressed properly for the party.

Good job with the oxymoron Caitlyn. This holds as an oxymoron because Tally tries to cover her 'ugly' face with a mask already deemed as ugly (the pig).
ReplyDeleteGreat background and color scheme choice as well!
