Ty hehe

So yeah, I'd love to hear people's ideas about where they think different players Fragments would appear on their bodies from each Life season

Reminder: If they win a series, that fragment is protected (feel free to still pick a location though)

Fragments are generally linked to a key moment or trauma in that season. Martyn's are:

3rd Life - Cheek (tear from killing Ren and losing him in the final battle)

Last Life - Between the shoulder blades (backstabbed)

Double Life - Chest, over where the heart is, cus, hearts are linked

Limited Life - Right hand, protected

Secret Life - Neck, due to inability to speak/share secrets (and dog collar lol)

Throw yours in #eaefragments (eyes and ears fragments) and maybe I'll read through a bunch on another stream <3

3rd Life - Ring finger (Cause of his marriage to Jimmy, yes, had to do it, sorry. I'm lightly pharaprasing, but he even said that the yellow glowy bits around his skin were a physical representation of the grief he felt about losing his husband, I mean, COME ON)

Last Life - Over the heart, protected (Because, to quote Scott, "I've spent the entire season being honorable, I am not about to stop now". He is the only player that preferred to fail a boogey kill than to hurt any of his allies.)

Double Life - Left hand (My justification for placement is in what he said in his first episode: "Sometimes you just need to take life into your own hands wether that's through work, or friends or love, and you find your own soulmate.")

Limited Life - Side of neck (Mimicking gills, because Martyn might have been a backstabber at the end but Scott "would not have had him any other way")

For Scott, it’s my first person with a recovered fragment! Slay sir, slay. Which just means I didn’t think about where that one would have gone— but it doesn’t matter because it never existed in the first place? Wait or does it heal a previous one? Shh.. one of them is missing anyways what’s it really matter?

Scott’s 3rd life fragment is on his hand, or wrapping his ring finger in remembrance of his dead husband. Self explanatory, flower husbands comes with extra angst.

Last life is nothing

Double life is the leg, very big fragment. This for when he killed himself to let pearl win— he exploded himself by standing on tnt so there’s that.

Limited life is on his back, for one having a huge target on his back the entire series for his time and for when he got backstabbed by martyn in the last episode.

Secret life is his heart. Every life that he had in the series went to another person. He never died in combat, only when he wanted to and each time giving a red player hearts. Scott’s character is always pretty selfless in that regard.

-

Timmy.. I’ll be surprised if you ever get to fix any of the cracks on you. I imagine that his fragments are all small due to never being able to see the heartbreak of someone close to him dying, and never seeing the real carnage the games bring.

3rd life’s fragment is on his hand, matching Scott for flower husbands. With his husband till the end.

Last life is on his other hand, the hand he holds his spyglass in! Again he was very close with his group and it just referring to the Ahas just makes sense.

Double life is the heart. The rancher duo was what I find to be one that stuck with him the most, referencing it inside and outside of the games. (I’d like to say that’s him talking about tango in his little void dreams.)

Limited life is the big one on the wing. This represents when he fell and died for the last time, the watchers pushing him watching him fall knowing that flight wasn’t an option to save himself in these games.

3rd life - Right hand, skizz was one of Ren's hands and was a big helping hand to others

Last life - around one of his eyes, Skizz had to watch his team fall into chaos, plus he was teh leader of BEST, aka the person who kep an eye on them

Limited life - neck, I imagine Etho killing him as being Etho beheading him, also that dude risked his neck for people way too much.

Secret life - over his heart, cus you know... love island

Ofc she doesn't get one for 3rd life bcs she was not in it.

Then for Last Life I think that her fragment should be on her heart, as it was the season where she gave so many of her lives, it's the season when she realised her bloodshed and I just think that it makes sense.

For Double Life the fragment would be on her neck for so many reasons (it is protected). Firstly of course is the soul bound part, because to her it was not something positive and it felt more like something tied around her neck, something holding her back. Also because Tilly and a dog collar. Just her neck.

For Limited Life I want to put one fragment over one of her eyes. Because I think that the "Always Watching" Noisy Neighbours comment should be immortalised. As well as to me it just fits her lim life. Also something something being pulled out of Watcher's games by Listeners to regenerate something something damaged eyesight.

And for Secret Life I think that her fragment would be on her right hand, either on the back of her hand or on her little finger. That's because of the way she played this season, she didn't want to win, she was a helping hand. To me she promised Mounders the world, that's why the little finger, she wanted to guide them to victory. In the end that was what she wanted to do with Scar to, be his hand, help him kill Scott and then die herself. Also I like imagining that while falling she impaled or hurt her hand and yeah.

3rd Life - Ankle, all his deaths happened either standing in lava or fire so I think it being on his ankle is fitting because that's what killed him, like fire being his achilles heel

Last Life - Chest (not heart), He was trusted by all the new reds and was always open to them, not betraying anyone, it symbolises the first inklings of his loyalty of him giving his full heartfelt loyalty to his allies

Double Life - Eye, didn't want it to be the heart just because of soulmates, but it being on the eye is kind of like an eye patch and his base was on a ship like a pirate so it's quite funny more than anything

Limited Life - Temple, shows how he "lost his mind" after the death of jimmy, in grians words

Ren:

Season One: Scalp (To represent a crown, because he was a king that season)

Season Two: Chest (To represent armor, because he was a knight that season)

Season Three: Arm (To represent the link with his Soulmate breaking due to the Secret Soulmate thing)

Jimmy:

Season One: Finger (To represent how you would hold a shield, because burning the shield led to his downfall)

Season Two: Leg (To represent the time when he ran away from the life-giving circle, causing the other Southerners to distrust him)

Season Three: Around eyes (To represent him having to see the Ranch burn down)

Season Four: Foot (To represent him falling from a high place so much)

Season Five: Neck (To represent a dog collar, matching with Martyn's fragment)

Cleo:

Season One: Back (To represent getting shot by Skiz to be eliminated, as even he claimed to mistake her for yellow at the time, so it came out of nowhere for both of them)

Season Two: Finger (To represent holding a match, because that season was when they became synonymous with fire)

Season Three: Chest (To represent her "following her heart" and choosing her own Soulmate. I didn't realize until after I thought of this that it would match her predetermined Soulmate's fragment; this was not intentional from me)

Season Four: Stomach (To represent giving birth, because they were a mother that season)

Season Five: Forehead (To represent her growing attachment to another player, who wears a headband)

(Side note: can you tell I had some serious difficulty coming up with Cleo's?)

Scar:

Season One: Mouth (To represent his ability to talk with people and make deals)

Season Two: Palm (To represent the magic crystals, since magic is cast through the hand in lots of fantasy media)

Season Three: Arm (To represent the link with his Soulmate breaking due to the Secret Soulmate thing)

Season Four: Wrist (To represent a wristwatch, since he joined a clock-based group that season)

Season Five: Around eyes (To represent him having to continuously read tasks that prevented him from having any true allies)

Pearl:

Season Two: Around eyes (To represent her having to watch her closest ally leave after sacrificing his Boogeyman task and becoming red)

Season Three: Neck (To represent a dog collar, since she became particularly attached to her pet dog that season)

Season Four: Ear (To represent overhearing things, because she was a Nosy Neighbor that season)
