one for sorrow, two for mirth
three for marriage, four for birth
five for the truth and six for lying
seven for sickness, eight for dying
nine for silver, ten for gold
eleven for a secret that shall never be told
twelve for the moon, thirteen for the sky
fourteen for the accursed unable to die
and fifteen for my heart's last desire
a new day's dawn, reborn in fire

[It's been a while since Izuna posted that message about the tattoos. Rantaro seriously needed to sleep on it since, back in his home country, giant tattoos everywhere made you look like a criminal or something. Though, on the other hand, he's already got multiple ear piercings and it's not like he's likely to go home any time soon, so why not?

So what's the holdup?

Better question: what the hell does he get a tattoo of?

Guess he has to have a private convo here...]

Hi, I'm interested in getting a tattoo. I know these things are supposed to last forever though, and I want want mine to actually mean something. Can you help me out?

wow I TOTALLY LOST THIS I'm sorry

[founderinglight]

Certainly! Did you have something in mind?

And now it has been found.

[whatsmytalentagain]

A few things actually.

See, I'm a little worried about losing my memories again and was thinking of getting subtle reminders tattooed on me. Like...

- Something nautical/adventure themed, like a ship's wheel?
- Something that represents "Been in three killing games, survived twice?" Hopefully that's not too disturbing?
- Something to remind me that the world is shades of gray, not black and white
- A reminder of who I'm fighting for?

IDK, this is all just a big "what if" right now. Maybe you can think of something better?

[founderinglight]

You needn't worry about disturbing me with the subject matter, I'm familiar enough with murdergame survivorship even if I'm not among your number.

I will say that with that kind of memory loss, sometimes even less than subtle reminders aren't enough. However, it's your body, ultimately.

[whatsmytalentagain]

Subtle reminders aren't enough, huh...

Well, I can't get too blunt with them. Otherwise, I'd just look weird/suspicious. Thanks, though.
