Subcultures 101, Tuesday, Period 3

Class met at the causeway today, and Didi was dressed in an ankle-length Victorian dress complete with bustle and a matching feathered hat with a tiny veil. The perfect lady, she carried a parasol.

"Hello," she said. "Today we're going to the circus - Victorian style. Carnival Diablo is a sideshow that's been traveling Canada for almost 25 years. You'll see feats of strength, fire-eaters and someone who dresses up like a demon and eats bugs - but in a cool way. The reason we're going is I want you to look at the way it blends the Victorian aesthetic, horror and supernatural fandom, goth fashion, and a little punk rock twist."

She smiled and took a break, twirling her parasol. "If this is absolutely not your thing, don't worry about it. Go online, watch a Cure video or three, and call it good. The rest of you, we have a portal to catch."

Four was really, really fascinated by the human dartboard. It seemed like a very Dauntless hobby.
