MEME: Tattoos

[citycouncil]

Comment to this post and tell us about your pups' tattoos: what they have, what they would get, what it all means, or even if they'd never, ever do it. Others can then reply, if they choose, with suggestions for other tattoos your character might get.

Harley Quinn doesn't currently have any I know about, but she would totally get some. All I can really think of at present is something to do with Pam-a-Lamb, but a pin-up style version of Poison Ivy seems a bit too on the nose. OR IS IT. I don't know.

[hitchcockblonde]

D A M A G E D

[bloodycrescents]

Harley Altmeyer also doesn't currently have any. If he got one, it would be something small as a reminder of Effy, but I'm not sure what?

[floozyfacade]

Olive Saverin doesn't have any tattoos at present. If she ever got one, it would be something small and tasteful and very meaningful. Maybe rosemary for her mother?

[kaitmaree]

Rosemary is a lovely idea! East does sprigs of herbs nicely. ;) I was thinking maybe an outline of an orange otherwise for her.

[triskehale]

Only one of mine has a tattoo. Derek has the Hale pack symbol tattooed on his back in honor of his family. The tattoo is very important to him, and was very painful to get. It had to be burned into his skin. He might consider other tattoos, but they would have to really mean something.



Not sure Jack would get a tattoo, and not sure Kara could get a tattoo. The needle would just break against her skin, I think.

Rapunzel, actually, I could see getting a tattoo. Something colorful and tasteful, maybe on her thigh or her shoulder. She just really likes all forms of art.

[frozenfractals]

I LOVE the idea of Rapunzel getting a tattoo. That seems so appropriate for her. Maybe the Corona sun?

[frozenfractals]

I was going to say Elsa wouldn't get a tattoo, and then I realized she probably would, under the right circumstances. I could absolutely see her getting a tiny spiderweb and/or an Arendelle crocus.

[hitchcockblonde]

oh no i left it out of my comment because was it Too Much but matching tiny spiderweb/snowflake

(the crocus is perhaps less That Couple That's Too Much You Guys Jesus Christ)

[makeafairfight]

lmao Cameron Winklevoss would not

[kaitmaree]

Why not?

[literaryimmortality]

SO as of right now Aurora Lane has no tattoos but since meeting Tris she's interested in getting one. If she does it will be of Earth, the planet she left behind on her journey to Homestead II. It will be very simple and a little like THIS in terms of size and placement. I haven't decided if the countries will be shaded but you get the gist.

[waitingtobelit]

That's a super cute idea! Would she get something for her writing/journalism too, do you think? Like a pen and paper? Something like this?

[makeithome]

Gwen Stacy has no tattoos at present. If she came across or thought of a design that was meaningful to her, probably something commemorating her father, she'd get that, but she doesn't currently have any plans to.

[righttoplay]

Stephen Meyers does not have any tattoo that I know about right now, but he totally would, and I wouldn't be surprised if he had one hidden on his arm above the elbow, but I don't know what it would be. SUGGESTIONS WELCOME.

[kaitmaree]

I'm not helping this meme.

[wishesandsmoke]

Eden McCain has two tattoos. On her left foot, she has a series of Chinese characters, the meaning of which I honestly forget, because Nora Zehetner has that and they didn't cover it up. On her inner wrist, she has dandelions sprouting into bird silhouettes. To her, it's evocative of freedom coming from seemingly delicate places, and she likes that dandelions are weeds growing wild. It's hard for her to put into words, but she identifies with the adaptability and freedom of it. She would absolutely get more, if I could figure out what.

[kaitmaree]

I love the idea of that dandelion tattoo. Beautiful.

[scarequotesreggie]

Reggie Mantle would never mar his flawless body with marks done by a mere human's hand. And if he did, it would probably just be his own name in a heart or something.

[comeandgetme]

Same.

[edsalad]

Holden Ford would probably have to be inebriated to get a tattoo. Like #EdKempersBFF or something.

[and_survive]

Ellie has one, a half-sleeve on her right forearm of a moth atop a pair of leafy branches:


It covers the place where she was bitten/infected, with the moth specifically precisely there. Caterpillars infected with cordyceps do not become moths; moths look for the light. Is any of this the reasoning why? I don't know, maybe I'll find out when the Last of Us Pt II drops!! Her sleeve fuckin rules tho

I have thought that she might also get a tattoo of a giraffe silhouette at some point, because the Giraffe Moment Is Important. She's probably the most likely of mine to get a bunch.

Jessica Drew has no tattoos, but wouldn't be against them; they'd be the small, out of the way kind. no spiderweb neck tattoos

Betty Cooper [pause for laughter] I mean, there's a chance, again, something small, she does do the odd impulse rebellious thing even when not possessed

[kaitmaree]

That sleeve is incredible and I'd love to see both JDrew and Betty with ink!

[intheruins]

Serena Pemberton doesn't know a whole lot about tattoos and would probably initially be against getting one. That being said, she has some scar tissue on her back from the fire she would like to see covered up. So maybe. One day.

[nabooqueen]

Padmé Amidala doesn't currently have any, mostly because she's never thought about it. I've considered having her get the Naboo royal crest on the back of her neck, as a way to remember her homeworld and all the people she loves there.

[kaitmaree]

Such a gorgeous design.

[losttheright]

Molly Stearns does not currently have any tattoos, but I have plans (as of a little while ago) for her to get the abbreviation to a Bible verse (Ephesians 2:8), in no small part because for her to choose to permanently mark her body is kind of a big deal for her.

[kaitmaree]

I love this for her.

[nextchance]

Jyn Erso also does not have any, because there is no way in hell that she would have, prior to canon, put any permanent marks on her body that aren't scars, but I've been thinking about having her get "hope" in Aurebesh for obvious reasons.

[kaitmaree]

YOU KNOW I LOVE THIS.

[swerved]

Kat Rance also has none, but if she got any, it would probably be of a pair of pointe shoes, and I would cry forever.

[hitchcockblonde]

aw aw AW

also kat u should get that anti-possession tattoo the winchesters have

shit BETTY should get the anti-possession tattoo the winchesters have, fucking lmao

[waitingtobelit]

Marius Pontmercy does not currently have any tattoos but I've been toying with the idea of him getting one. Probably something as a tribute to his father? Or something to commemorate the people he's lost while in Darrow. But, actually, most likely, a verse of poetry that speaks to his personal beliefs. Probably a verse from Keats, Shelley, or Byron. He's the most likely of all my pups to get literary-inspired tattoos.

Buffy Summers doesn't have any tattoos (unless I'm forgetting something from canon?) but I can definitely see her getting a few. An image of dawn, for obvious reasons, and something in memory of her mother. And an image of the Scooby Gang (from actual Scooby Doo) for also obvious reasons. Something for Giles, of course, and maybe a musical note for irony/screw you value. Also, she would get something punny and related to vampires.

Thor surprisingly doesn't have any, but I can definitely see him getting several. The official logo for the Avengers, some kind of logo for the Revengers, his hammer, and a telescope and/or other scientific instruments as a testament for Jane. And possibly a snake, just because he really likes them. Probably not a frog though lol.

Newt Scamander I suspect he has, not a tattoo, but some kind of mark because I am almost one hundred percent sure he's been working Dumbledore this whole time in the first incarnation of the Order of the Phoenix and I just have a hunch there's some kind of tattoo involved? Don't quote me on that, though. Newt would also very much get a tattoo or several. Some kind of portrait involving all his creatures; the Hufflepuff crest; a Hippogriff, a swan (which is what I suspect his Patronus is currently), the Hogwarts crest, etc. Also an actual newt, just because. Baked goods for obvious reasons, and Tina's gumdrop hat, because it's one of his favorite things about her. IDK, I think about Newt and tattoos a lot.

[littlerecord]

can Marius get his business card tattooed on him serious question

[hadtheshot]

Chuck Hansen has the Striker Eureka logo (sans text) on the inside of his forearm! It's veeeeery briefly visible in canon, he's probably due to get it touched up soon. He would also probably get more if it was significant enough — like, maybe the Pan Pacific Defense Corps logo somewhere, now that he's a long way from home and all that.

[wishesandsmoke]

He should go with Eden when she gets "more life" or "discover something elegant" and we should thread it because we can!!!!

[radicalize]

Lucy Carrigan has none (this seems like a running theme) but if it ever occurred to her and/or I ever came up with an idea, she would totally get something for her brother.

Before anyone says as much, no, she would not get a silver hammer. :P

[waitingtobelit]

Thor wants to know what's wrong with silver hammers? ;)

[mettle_some]

Tansy has at least one tattoo, a blue crescent moon on the right side of her neck. It's a symbol of healers where she's from; her dad has the same tattoo in the same place. She might get more, once she realizes that they're allowed/not restricted to occupational markings?

Also, there's a scene the graphic novel where she has a tattoo on her right temple, but it literally only shows up in a single panel and then never again, so idk whether to actually go for it or not??

[littlerecord]

Doing this in one hit

Nate has no tattoos currently because somehow he avoided prison tats??? If he got something he'd do it while he was drunk and it'd be something super fucking dumb. I vote he and Coop make poor decisions together, looking at you Trace >_>

Raven ALSO has nothing but WHAT IF??? I googled and now I desperately want my girl to get something like this in watercolour because amazing and she needs a reminder of spacewalking. I kind of want this too now ngl HOW FUCKING SWEET IS IT.

James doesn't have any either lawwwwwwwwd maybe he could get a doe because I'm a sad sap.

Ed doesn't have anything either and I can't decide if he would or not? Maybe not. BUT MAYBE.

Aragorn does not because Middle-Earth. My boy might get one if someone told him it was a thing that existed, maybe. Maybe the Telcontar banner? That's probably a little narcissistic lmfao. Maybe the White Tree.

Enjolras is getting vive la republique tattooed across his forehead, it's been decided. Or in all seriousness he might get liberté, égalité, fraternité somewhere because he's the worst but he'd also probably be confused by tattoos in general because WHY JUST TATTOO IT WHEN YOU CAN LIVE AND BREATHE AND DIE FOR IT or something ridiculous god why is he such an asshole

[eternaldaisy]

omg, that one for Raven is fucking gorgeous

[deflectere]

Alec Lightwood doesn't have any tattoos per se but he does have a lot of runes permanently burned into his body that many people think are tattoos. So, that counts, right?

[thelark]

god bless us everyone

[butterfly_knives]

Jason Zhou has one tattoo of a cala lily on his chest. It's in honor of his mother as it was her favorite flower. He probably won't be getting anything else.

[somethingwild]

That is really beautiful! I love the tattoo and the idea behind it!
