#also that bus one conspiracy post (from the second pic) is hilarious lmao

I saw that Andy Samuels has Bus 1 tattoo, mic and matches tattoos with Liam. So he has similar tattoos with both of them. I'm shocked wow. Bus 1 are Zouis tattoo.

hey there nonnie, here i finally am! sorry to have kept you waiting but it’s actually funny you brought up this whole andy bus 1 tat sitch when you did cause i was just talking to my friend @lstarry about this earlier today and i was already planning on making a post about it before i even saw your ask, but then i figured i may as well just put everything here but needed some time to gather the appropriate links and such for ppl to check sources for themselves

in the interest of full disclosure and giving credit where credit is due, this is all @lstarry’s own research/stuff that she gathered, i’m just reposting what she sent me with links where necessary.

for context here’s an edited down quote of her initial explanation:

theory on the Andy Bus 1 tattoo…Louis and Zayn’s tattoos with Bus 1 happened in LA back in Aug 2013 with a visit to a tattoo shop that seemed to be widely publicized (Liam was there as well apparently but didn’t get a tattoo from what I saw). Andy was there in LA at the same time frame according to his IG.  After the Bus sharpie Liam event (which happened in July 2013 - as posted to Andy’s IG),  he was bonded a bit with Z and the Bus 1 thing, and was with them in LA but didn’t get a mention in the articles about the tattoo shop visit because he was just a “friend” and he got it like Z’s because of him feeling closer to Z vs. Lou. See screenshots for my timing references…

so i know way back when (i.e. a few months ago lol) me and some anons were discussing the possible veracity of old rumors re zayn and andy possibly not getting along in the early days of ziam, like around late 2012/early 2013 or so, but i think regardless of whether it was ever true or not that there was maybe any tension or bad blood between them, if nothing else this confirms that they squashed it fairly quickly if they were getting matching tattoos by august (that or it wasn’t true/was only ever just rumors to begin with)

anyway i just found all this interesting and i know it’s not really ziam related or anything but it’s always fun to just delve into theories and “evidence” and play detective for a little bit even when it doesn’t involve our favorite boys lol, just hope some of you all out there find this little tidbit of info interesting too

ETA - sorry i forgot to add the actual pic of andy’s bus 1 tat for people to see it is, but here it is from one of his recent ig stories (sorry don’t know the exact date):

and the mic tat too:
