witchesreign | 3 option [BBS] included

[There are 3 options and places you might find Marco today.

First, there just happens to be a certain vibrant blue phoenix hanging out in the quad "meditating" and trying to keep calm for the past month. Seems the Commander of Cool for once is having troubles staying composed. It's hard to study for a field test and as excited as he is, he has a lot more laying on the line than he has had for nearly a year and a half. There's a deck of Triple Triad next to him, and far more books than belong anywhere outside of the library, but he seems to be going through them.

Secondly, on the 26th, he's raiding the nurses' office and infirmary to steal needles and tools of sterilization.

Later on, it looks like he's setting up orange ink into very very clean needle tubes... for those who'd know; it looks like he's setting up a miniature tattoo parlor. Now what could that possibly be about?

And then there's this BBS message. Oh. So that that's what it's about.]

Tattoos

When done right, they are a mark of pride, much like a pirate flag. [Oh dear, someone's criminal roots are showing.] They symbolize something important to you, something that even if you magically live another thousand years, you will still want to show off for what it meant to you when you got it, and what it means to you even now. Something you want people to know how strongly the thing it represents affects you.

Something to think about. I've got the ink if you've got the guts.

[Quick... get in on that before the man shuts him down. And on the last day before his exam too, tsk tsk.]

Word art and poetry? Not my thing.

I mean the turnip in a domino mask and cape. :|

[Blame Damian for the smiley indifferent.]

Stereotypical "hero wear" - gets associated with my line of work a lot, even though not many people wear it these days. You'll see the domino mask around now, but capes fell out of fashion. Thank God.

Aside from the mask, Vista would love that.

Vista? Not heard that name yet. One of your brothers?

Yes. Fifth division commander. He has a long mustache that makes him look like he wants to tie up maidens to railroad tracks. And he uses two swords. "Flower sword Vista." He's like... 8 feet tall and all hairy chested, but nothing gets him down practically.

Right, got it. And he'd love a turnip in a cape, would he?

That a cape and domino mask were the stereotypical "hero" gear. He has a weird fashion sense.

The type to join in on the costumed idiocy, but only for the sake of the costume?

Anyway, Marco, you've disappointed me.

No no, the type to laugh at it. He is my brother after all.

Oh?

The first things that came to mind were turnips and justice? Really?

Of course not. The first funny ones that came to mind that I thought you might actually consider were.

Uh-huh. Right.

And the others?

The Chaotix symbol, something that represents your nakama, something to represent the Chaos Zone, things like that.

Also I was going to try to convince you get a birthday cake, but I knew you'd never go for it.

Special Zone. Not Chaos Zone!

Chaotix don't really have a symbol. If we needed something to represent us, it was usually just written in big letters - none of us are good enough at design to come up with a symbol.

And a birthday cake? Why?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay then just a big giant stamp of "Chaotix" on your forehead.

Why not?

Bit of a random choice, a cake.

And how about definitely not?

Though I probably should do something to remember them by, since I never did. Not a tattoo - I don't think they'd work out on scales, anyway - but something.

You're no fun sometimes.

Like a memorial?

Only sometimes?

And yeah. Something like that.

Only sometimes.

I'll see what I can do.

Maybe a project. Like a book full of pictures or drawings to remember people from back home or that were here, but are gone now, eh?

Maybe. But that's kept shut away. I'd rather everyone see it.

We could ask Headmaster Cid to borrow a wall to decorate?

I'll think about it.

Couldn't hurt, eh.
