PART 5
"A little over 2 weeks after the bullshit 2.0 tweets, Louis went and got the dagger tattoo.
Its significance cannot be overstated.
After the ARIA Awards, Louis (and Zayn) went to Bondi Ink in Sydney where Louis got 2 new tattoos.
The dagger is in the exact same place as Harry’s rose on the opposite arm. It is also from this website [link no longer active] and is something we have been talking about happening for over a year. [We had hoped for it happening and then Lou went and DID IT. 🥹 It was an indescribable feeling of relief, joy and strength.]
Smiley Face on wrist (Louis) - Bondi Ink [Louis' 34th tattoo]
Given a Chance (Louis) - Bondi Ink [Louis' 35th tattoo]
[Meta: The tattoo is Harry's handwriting and here is why. Thank you, @skepticalarrie]
April 17, 2015*
Tiger (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 51st tattoo]
Meta: Fans first saw the tiger tattoo in Australia on the On the Road Again Tour in February 2015, but it’s possible he’s had it since July 2014. Harry confirmed it was a tiger on the Radio 1 Breakfast interview filmed on 12 November 2015.
December 4, 2015
“Late, Late” (Harry) - Boo Boo Negrete (FN) [Harry's 52nd tattoo]
Meta: Harry got the words “late, late” on his arm by the heart after playing (and losing) a game on the James Corden show.
December 19, 2015
28 (Louis) - Nick Colella (Great Lakes Tattoo) [Louis' 36th tattoo]
[Meta: Why the number 28 is extremely significant for Louis (and Harry). 💙💚]
Ass tattoo (Louis) - Nick Colella (Great Lakes Tattoo) [Louis' 37th tattoo]
Beer Mug (Louis) - Nick Colella (Great Lakes Tattoo) [Louis' 38th tattoo]
Meta: Louis was in Chicago to be seen with and near Danielle Campbell’s family. In the middle of a hilarious fan service tour of the greater Chicagoland area, Louis went to Great Lakes Tattoo near Noble Square and got “several” tattoos, according to the artist and fans he later met. [...]
December 29, 2015*
Eagle (Harry) - Unknown UK [Harry's 53rd tattoo]
Meta: Sometime between 7 December 2015 and 23 December 2015, Harry got the eagle tattoo, covering the lone tattoo on his right arm: “Things I Can." The timing appears symbolic as they group heads into their much anticipated break, with many fans speculating they are leaving Syco Music and Modest! Management. Eagle tattoos are often symbols of freedom. [updated source]
[2016
Half a heart (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 54th tattoo]
Meta: A matching tattoo with one of Kings of Leon.]
January 31, 2017*
Arlo & Jackson (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 55th & 56th tattoo]
Meta: Harry was seen with 2 new tattoos in LA, but a stalker fan from the UK knew what the “Arlo” tattoo said before anyone saw it, so it is presumed he got both tattoos sometime while in the UK in late 2016 or early 2017.
On April 20, 2017, Harry said on the Graham Norton show the “Jackson” tattoo was for his godson, [possibly Cal Aurand's son, Jackson (source)]
March 25, 2017*
Bee (Harry) - Unknown (Harry's 57th tattoo)
Meta: [...] In a radio interview Harry did with the BBC 1 Breakfast Show on 7 April 2017, Harry was asked about the tattoo but declined to comment, instead deflecting to his “Jackson” tattoo. [...]
FURTHERMORE, this is a guy who has a “thigh-ger” tattoo (tiger on his thigh) and a butterfly on his stomach and “big” on his big toe and he just got a bee on his ARM, at essentially the same time Steve Aoki referred to Louis’ dedicated fans as an “army of bees.” [...]" •
[From here, I will add the rest of the recent tattoos and 2 that were missing in the timeline:
April 2017*
R on his arm (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 58th tattoo]
Meta: I could not find a source in which Harry confirmed it, but it could be an R for his step-father Robin (and who unfortunately passed away in June 2017). Take this with a grain of salt though, please.
11 May 2017*
Cross with B on chest (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 59th tattoo]
27 Jul 2018
X on arm (Louis) - Robbie Williams [Louis' 39th tattoo]
2019
RG (Louis) - Richard G. [Louis' 40th tattoo]
Meta: "Richard's Bucket List Official Video" was released on 24 April 2019. in this video Louis helps a man named Richard who lost his wife to Alzheimer's disease in 2016 (the same year Louis lost his mum to Leukemia) to fulfil items on his bucket list: fly a helicopter, drive a race car, give Louis a tattoo, go on a rollercoaster and sing in front of a live audience." (source)
Palm Tree (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 60th tattoo]
Meta: a matching tattoo with Gemma and perhaps also Lottie, too. (thank you, @twopoppies!)
Colazione on his thigh (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 61st tattoo]
Meta: “Breakfast” in Italian. Theories include that it’s the name of a cat that belongs to a hotel in the town of Civita, where he owns a home.
the letter E (Louis) - Unknown [Louis' 41st tattoo]
April 2019
Mary (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 62nd tattoo]
Meta: "Believed to be for his nan when she passed (but also a euphemism for a gay man. Coupled with the Eagle tattoo, it’s a possibility it refers to both)"
Oui, Non, Si, No on both knees (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 63rd tattoo]
Meta: He tweeted some of these things before getting them tattooed about 6 years later.
5 April 2023
Symbols on fingers on right hand (Louis) - Unknown (Louis' 42th tattoo)
July 2023*
Olma/Olivia (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 64th tattoo]
Meta: Please see my Olma tattoo tag for this.
•
A few strays that escaped the original timeline from back then:
October 2012
Screws on ankles (Harry) - [Harry's 65th tattoo] (well, not really, because 2012, but I can't change the reblogs so.. this will have to do in order to keep track)
Meta: We first heard about them October 12th, 2012 when Louis and Liam got matching screws. I think Zayn did them in a hotel room."
October 2013
Skeleton playing card (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 66th tattoo]
Meta: There's a theory that it matches Louis' skull on his left arm, with the playing card symbols around his wrist; the colors and theme do match!
1957 and 1967 on his collarbones (Harry) - Unknown [Harry's 67th tattoo]
Meta: The birthyears of his biological (and divorced) parents, Desmond Styles and Anne Twist.
2013
Triangle ankle tattoo (Louis) - Possibly done in Dublin or in London at Skunx. [Louis' 43rd tattoo]
😌🏳️🌈

My (Paz') own thoughts: I'm repeating myself, but I do find it deeply significant that as soon as the hiatus (aka: a potential way into freedom) started, Harry and Louis slowed down to an almost glacier pace when it comes to getting tattoos - compared to the time during the band. Harry got almost 80% of all his 67 tattoos within 3,5 years in the band. Louis even got over 90% of all his 43 tattoos within 3 years in the band. And then he got zero tattoos for 3 years into the hiatus.*
Harry got 53 tattoos between early 2012 and end of 2015. He got 14 tattoos within the next 9 years, until today Nov 2024.*
Louis got 39 tattoos between late 2012 and end of 2015. He got 4 tattoos within the next 9 years, until today Nov 2014.* (*that we know of)
It clearly shows what a beautiful and powerful way to express themselves to the world it was for them; as individuals, but also deeply bonded and visually belonging together. a quiet, visual rebellion; their skin constantly speaking the words they couldn't say.
also: Harry's Cover Ups - (here is a post with pictures)
It's noteworthy that Louis has not covered up any tattoo of his. For Harry, it's important not just to note that he covered up 5 of his tattoos, but also which ones and from what year. (standpoint Nov 2024) All 5 of the tattoos Harry had covered up were from 2012 - a time where the iron closet started to have a tight grip on Louis and him. All 5 tattoos were written phrases that could possibly be connected to his sexuality or relationship - a summary: 1) the "LOVE banner" -- covered with 2 swallows that resemble Lou & him 2) "I can't change..." -- covered with an anchor, matching Louis' pre-existing rope 3) "Might as well..." -- covered with laurels; laurels often symbolize victory 4) "Things I can't" -- covered by a Holy Bible (I Can't: Holy Bible?) 5) "Things I can" -- covered by an Eagle (I Can: Freedom?)] Since the start of the band's hiatus, Harry has not covered up a single tattoo in almost 10 years. Harry and Louis have at least 5 beautifully obvious matching tattoos: Oops + Hi Rope + Anchor Ship + Compass Anatomical Heart + Arrow Rose + Dagger
Let's see if this particular list will grow again someday (◡‿◡✿) • For additional resources: Gina's Harry's Tattoos tag and Louis' Tattoos tag Daisie's Tattoos tag Allie's Tattoos tag My tattoos tag
TIMELINE: TATTOOS TO DATE
This is organized by date. All tattoos are linked to photos, unless they are major tattoos I want to talk about, in which case I have inserted the photos into the post. (Special thanks to thelegohouselove and their wonderful tattoo masterposts with pictures)
Dates are dates I believe they actually got the tattoos. If I can’t find a date they got the tattoo, I have indicated it with a “*” which is the first date we saw the tattoo.
Before we begin, fun facts that might blow your mind:
Harry has 56 tattoos that we know of.
Louis 38 tattoos that we know of.
Harry got 30 of his 56 tattoos between June and October 2012. That’s, on average, about 8/month.
Louis got 10 of his 37 between October and December 2012. That’s, on average, about 5/month.
The most Harry ever got on one day is 4. He got 13 in a 7 day period in October 2012. The most Louis ever got on one day was 5 on February 25 of 2013.
Artist counts for Harry: Tom Atkins (10); Liam Sparkes (10); Freddy Negrete (8); Kevin Paul (3).
Artist counts for Louis: Skunx (7); Liam Sparkes (4); Freddy Negrete (4).
Some of this stuff isn’t an exact science. Some of it is me making an educated guess, especially involving some of Harry’s tattoos in October and Louis’ “The Rogue” vs. “It is what it is” and Harry’s 3 Nails. So bear that in mind.
Over all, this should give you a good idea of just how much the tattoos seem to be an outlet during highly-closeted and stressful times (Harry’s June-October spree that gave way to the birds, ship & compass and butterfly and Louis’ October-December Haylor spree), not only in date alone, but also in the subject of the tattoo.
Thank you to Kerry, Jess & awesomeanonfriend for the cheerleading and fact-checking and Angela for her insight.
Let’s do this.

the arcane fandom can argue about literally anything, but the one thing we all agree on is that ekko, the boy savior, is the most unproblematic character ever, and that we all absolutely love him. while everyone else is caught up in gay tragedy of all kinds, my boy ekko is just over here trying to fix his damn tree

Currently thinking about how much Ford tries to hide his hands a lot when he can…behind his back with this stance. Due to how often he’s been bullied for it.
And also, how Mabel is one of the ones who Ford feels happy about showing his hands to because she thought they were cool looking upon first shaking his hand, instead of him being judged for his six fingers.
[ID: Gravity Falls screenshots. The first three are of Ford with his hands crossed behind his back. The last two are of him shaking hands with Mabel, and letting her paint a turkey on his hand. He's smiling in both. End ID.]
#Ford and Mabel defender for life#This probably isn’t much but idc I LOVE them sm#Ford being insecure about his hands :((#I’m making myself sad too#gravity falls#stanford pines#mabel pines#gravity falls lost legends#If I think about Ford too much I’ll explode#ramblings#Either this or he’s autistic
