All things are but pasteboard masks, and in that striving, I see the living thing straining underneath. That is what I strike.To paraphrase Ahab.
Unlikely I will get another tattoo. I'd rather prefer not to have any tattoos at this point, although I don't mind them exactly. I see them as things I like, and they're fine. Then again, that was my initial approach; to get tattoos of things I like but aren't so meaningful that they need to stand up under the weight of some grand idea of myself.
Not sure where I would place it. I've got kind of a symmetry going with my current placement. Left shoulder, right shoulder, chest. Hmm...maybe on the right leg. In the game, there's a superstition that beasthood creeps up the right leg. Maybe on my quadriceps, where the player characters inject their blood vials. My other tattoo approach was to not get them where they can be seen in my usual clothing. Again, I feel like a tattoo is equivalent to a person saying a thing over and over. Which is why actual sentences bother me so much. They just say that one thing every time. It's like "Here, I'll tell you exactly what to think."
