Also you'd need more knuckles for that tattoo.

I'll squeeze two letters onto each knuckle. It'll be really classy.

And ok if that's so terrible think up a good supervillain name for yourself

Also remember that you can't use the thumb knuckle. The placement is off. And, hmm...Oh! How about 'Cruelty.' Way cooler without the 'the,' I think.

Hey if I'm a suepervillain I don't care about the placement. I get my dumb tattoos where I want them.

Only yours won't work for knuckle tattoos either. You'll have to get one across your forehead like a badass.

OR you could put an exclamation point at the end like you're real excited about it. CRUELTY!

THAT just sounds like some terrible stage musical.

you mean an AWESOME stage musical.

Though you could get an actual road trip tattoo you know. A couple of my friends got them on our trip.

[She really doesn't have to ask in order to find out that no, Jaime did not engage in these proceedings.]

What on EARTH is a road trip tattoo?

A tattoo you get on a road trip?

What, wrapping around your arm, 'I went on a road trip'?

Well I mean whatever floats your boat. If you come back with I WENT ON A ROAD TRIP on your forehead I promise to support you.

It's commemorative! And like maybe a little dangerous because it's not like you research the parlor a bunch first

Huh. So...How do you go about getting a tattoo, anyway? Though I don't know why I'm asking you, because I bet you don't have any.

Just because I don't have any doesn't mean I don't know how it works! There's nothing I'd want on me for life anyway

But basically what you do is you think up what you want and then you go to the parlor and describe it to them? After that they'll do some sketches for you and if you like it you can get it.

Maybe I'll do that. Not of the road trip, that'd be sort of silly, but...I never really thought about it before, but I sort of like the thought of commemorating certain things. That's nice.

I think so too! I don't think I'd ever get one but I like them.

What would you get?

Oh, I know you wouldn't get one. FAR too respectable for that. And...I don't know, exactly. I'd have to think about it. Because it'd have to be just right, I think. It's...There are people who are gone, and I'd like to remember them somehow.

You're going to give me a whole complex with this respectable thing. Next time you see me I met get a piercing

I figured it would be something like that though. That's the sort of thing I'd get too if I was gonna get anything. It seems hard to figure out what. Just someone's name doesn't seem right

PLEASE get a piercing, I'd love to see that. And...No, it doesn't, really. Little symbols for each of them, too, would be...weird, I think. I can't really decide. It seems reductive, doesn't it? To try to pick out the essence of who they are? It seems like it's not enough.

Maybe you're thinking too specific. Maybe you need something about the place instead of every specific person.

What, as in - the place where they died?

[Oh. So they're dead. Jaime didn't know that part.

I was thinking more the place you met.

Oh...That might be nice. We had this little art shop where we all worked. I could do something with that, maybe. I don't know about for the people from here who've disappeared, though.

Maybe something or someplace you liked being with them too? The art shop idea sounds nice.

I feel like if someone wanted to remember me I'd want it to be with something happy. Same goes with remembering others

[Not... that that probably comes as any particular surprise to Kitty.]

I suppose an empty safe that we just robbed would be sort of weird. But sort of accurate, too. A lot of the time, that was when we got on best, when we were on jobs. Up until the end. But...OK, morbid question. But how specifically WOULD you want to be remembered? Like, if you disappeared, and say all of your friends decided to get a tattoo to remember you.

Hey you could always go for the empty safe motif. You don't have to justify your tattoo to anyone but yourself

But man I dunno. I've never thought about it much. I guess something that would remind people of me but I'm not sure what that would be? [A beetle, probably.] I feel like everything I actually do with people would make kind of tacky tattoos.

How about you?
