Choose Your Own Adventure, Thursday afternoon

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

"Welcome to Ink & Holes." Yup, another e-mail went out that the class was meeting somewhere outside of the school grounds. "Everybody got those ID's we... ahem? Cool. Look around at the flash. Talk to the tattoo artists. I want you to walk out of here with at least some mehndi, henna or stick-on. Let's see some self-expression here. Or, if you want to pierce yourself, that's cool too." She looked around for Cecil and pointed to him. "Dude, they have animated tattoos!"

Okay, not quite the eldritch kind he was hoping for, but still.

"Look around, knock yourself out, we're getting ice cream afters."

Mingle, look around

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

There's tons of jewelry for any kind of piercing, as well as the tattoos, too.

Yeah, Karina was noping hard to the tattoo thing. Her parents would kill her, sure, but she was more concerned with her career here.

Blue Rose would be in so much shit if she started showing up with tats. Karina could just imagine her manager's response.

So, yeah, Karina would be over here. Looking at the jewelry.

Emma wondered if it'd be cheating to use her tattoo for this. Talking that guy into doing her wrist during the fall break trip totally counted, right?

There was no way in hell Kaylin was getting a tattoo. No way in fucking shit hell! Not with the markings she already had all over her that came from gods only knew where and made her think about things she REALLY DID NOT WANT TO BE THINKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW!!!

There was also no way she was letting anyone see her arms or back. No way in all the hells!

And letting someone put holes in her body? She thought not!

She was in a particularly black mood today.

So, here was a thing: Raven had absolutely no idea how tattoos -- or piercings, for that matter -- would work on her. Would they stay when she shifted forms? Or would she be wasting her money on something she could just as easily mimic?

She had to admit, some of the jewelry was really pretty. She especially liked the variety of skulls. Maybe she could pick a couple up, and just wear them on occasion for fun.

The fact that it'd give Charles a heart attack was definitely a bonus.

Cecil grinned at her. "Do you think they'd work on you?" he asked, not having read the narrative.

Toby was kind of distractedly paging through a book of sample tattoo art. He wasn't particularly interested in getting something done at the moment, but it seemed like today was one of those days where most of the island's thoughts seemed more... intense... than usual, and it was starting to give him a headache. Looking at the artwork at least gave him something to focus on that wasn't, say, the epic rage fit currently occuring over at the Perk because the barista gave a customer the wrong latte.

Kenzi draped herself over his back. Appropriateness? Schmappropriateness. "Whatcha thinkin' of getting?" Hiiii!

Re: Mingle, look around

[bearmaidenfair]

Vider skipped the jewelry on the reasoning that piercings could get ripped out, but another tattoo, one that she just wanted, could maybe be a thing.

Cosette was a little wide-eyed, yes, but not in a horrified way. Intrigued, and somewhat taken aback, but that was culture shock, not revulsion.

She wasn't about to get a tattoo, no. (Her father would be horrified if she did, for reasons he'd never explain to her.) That didn't stop her from entertaining the idea of which one she would get, if she did.

The jewelry, on the other hand -- that got more of a dubious look from her.

Re: Mingle, look around

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Kenzi swooped in and alighted on the case next to her. "You could get earrings! Little sparkly ones. Think how much other stuff you could wear with pierced ears."

Get a Tattoo or Piercing

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

[Either mod your own, or ask for an NPC tattoo artist who can answer questions or get you a tatt.]

Re: Get a Tattoo or Piercing

[myownface]

Huh. Yeah, there was no way in hell Sparkle could afford half the tattoos that he was eyeing up, but punching a hole in either ear? He could do that.

And have a really involved, animated sort of discussion with the person doing his piercing about gauging them up in increments so that he could eventually get a spool in there. Because why the hell not?

Besides, if he decided he didn't like them, he could just let them grow over. Easy.

"Whatcha thinking of getting?" Kenzi asked, wandering over. She already had a flash sheet of some geometric designs in hand.

Talk to the TA

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

Who is probably Cecil this week, since he used to have tattoos that would blink at you.

Re: Talk to the TA

[voiceoverdue]

Cecil will definitely TA this one! He's not leaving without some ink, whether it moves or not!

Talk to Kenzi

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

She is happy to help!

Re: Talk to Kenzi

[voiceoverdue]

"Oo, do you think they really work? And won't kill you, of course," Cecil asked. He really did want some.

Re: Talk to Kenzi

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

"Are you talking come-to-life-and-try-to-choke-you, or cause cancer in 50 years?" Kenzi checked. "'Cause maybe on 1, no on 2. I mean, consider where we're living. This place needs to come with disclaimers."

Ice cream - and suggestions.

[regretiz4suckas.livejournal.com]

"Okay, dudes. What do you want to do next week?" Kenzi licked her butter-pecan almond-cream waffle cone. "Learning how to break into cars? Dance? Music? I wanna know."

Yes, she had ideas for each of these already.

Re: Ice cream - and suggestions.

[notacokeperson.livejournal.com]

"Music!" Karina said brightly. And predictably. "Or dance."

She frowned slightly.

"Unless you've found a way to make those somehow illegal."

... Sorry, Kenzi?

Home all day, except for a couple hours in the early evening!
