#tattoos itch

oh goodness...

You know how the Fandom likes to speculate that Hunter has half his body tattooed with a skeleton?

Imagen he is freshly tattooed, his whole left side sore. Hunter is being really careful not to touch anything cause it hurts like a bitch.

And then here comes Crosshair with a-

"GOOD MORNING SERGEANT!!"

And slaps Hunter's freshly tattooed back/arm.

can y'all please come into my humble abode and imagine something with me i don't yet have the wits to write a full fledged fic out of (yet)?

so, everyone knows how when you get a tattoo, part of the healing process is the itchy phase, right? and for obvious reasons, you can't scratch it. favored method, in my experience and fellow tatted friends, is to just give it a good old slap.

perfect. so now, with this in mind, can you imagine having gotten a large hip/ass piece, and how mortifying it would be to smack your own ass to soothe that itch? and it's just plain painful. you want your new ink to heal properly - it's gorgeous and you put a lot of time, pain, and money into that damn thing - but it just sucks.

enter best friend eddie.

he loves your new ink. thinks it's fucking sick. nearly creamed his damn pants when he found out you were doing a hip/ass tatt (because how can he ask to see it without being weird? how can he react to that without being weird when he's spent the last several years with the world's most pathetic crush on you?) at first, it's fine. you show him the tattoo in a totally friendly, totally platonic way. he hypes you up, he calls you 'the most metal person he knows'. flourishes you with all the compliments and looks at you with starry eyes out of sheer awe at the way he's managed to snag a person into his life who is just so. damn. cool.

but the days pass by, that new ink begins to heal, and it fucking itches.

when you first proposition him, you're even more embarrassed than he is. stumbling over all your words, the request coming out contorted every wrong way. you don't want to make things weird, but is it really that weird for a friend to help a friend? it is really that weird to ask your best friend to smack your tattoo to help with that itch you can't even really properly reach?

it's just friends helping friends.

and that's the mantra you both repeat to yourselves - as you request the embarrassing favor of him, as he agrees almost too eagerly, as you find yourself face-planted in your bed wondering how deeply you can bury down your shame as he tries to make jokes to make it all a bit less awkward.

it's just friends helping friends, until eddie's hand lands down on your ass with a resounding smack, and that first little whimper escapes your lips.

First pic still fresh, second one fully healed! I have been trying to think of a Lord of the Rings tattoo for years, with no success until I saw this piece and said "Oh!!!" out loud. I am delighted with how it turned out!! @chechula, thank you so much for letting me do this 💙 your art is so lovely!

Sarah Zeller at Leaf and Arrow Tattoo in York, PA USA did the whole thing in only four hours. She made a few small changes to "translate" it from paper to skin, but I think it works just as well this way :D An excellent experience and I hope to see her again in the future!

Friend, who's never been tattooed: oh you got your tattoo! Did it really take five hours?

Me: yeah, I mean, we had a bathroom break and a snack break though so that took maybe 15 minutes off. But yeah the appointment total was 5 hours.

Friend: what was the hardest part? the outline, the color-

Me: the itching

See now that I have my tattoo I understand why nobody gets just one. First, it looks lonely out here on my otherwise blank leg. Second, perhaps even more important, is that I spent years looking up anecdotes of how much it hurts and trying to prepare myself and now I've done it and it's just. Huh! Yep that hurt. No I didn't really mind. And now I know what's possible.

[im-not-a-virgo-im-a-lesbo]

I found out that people have completed tlou1 in 2 hours and realized I will never accomplish anything of significance

I'm nearly three hours into my speedrun, and the only way I think I can keep it within the third hour is if I fucking sprint through silver lake, and that is an incredibly generous assumption

[bbyglock]

my tat has reached that stage where it’s starting to get ugly due to the healing process and.. it’s so itchy i’m gonna die!!!
