Rebecca Angel
Rebecca Angel was one of those kids that put the dragon book on top of her pile in the hopes that someone would say, "Hey, I'm into that stuff too!" Alas, she had to wait until she was an adult to find fellow geeks. Luckily, she married one and their kids are too. A music teacher by day, Rebecca is also a lover of tea, science literacy, funky tights, RPGs, anime, manga, comics, fantasy books and movies.
It’ seems I’m a steampunk, not so much of a surprise I guess 🙂
Goth has its own makeup (black lipstick, heavy eye makeup, pale skin) but Steampunk makeup is still undefined. If you look at the picture “steampunk in training” that’s my version of steampunk makeup!
Any one else have some suggestions on what makeup could be steampunk?
Brown eyeliner on boys? (I just like eyeliner on boys in general)
What a great quiz, Rebecca! I am firmly in the steampunk camp–which is no big surprise. But fun to have confirmed. 😛
By these results I am apparently leaning goth, although my sensibilities (and taste in actual stories) are much more steampunk in real life. I’m the artsy emo steampunk person! Surely there’s a place for us!
“artsy emo steampunk” Most excellent.
I myself am a “silly optimistic goth”
Soooo: If it’s a tie, does it make me a Steam-Goth? Goth-punk?
SteamGoth sounds better 🙂
I thought the steampunk drink was absinthe!
Actually, I think some kind of alcohol mixed with tea would be the best steampunk drink. Hmmmm…..
Steampunk, definitely. But my t-shirts are red, pink, green and blue 🙂
Drat! What if you are equal? (Including the two questions that you can’t answer at all because neither answer applies.) What am I????
A SteamGoth!
