Don't You Worry

Well, I also make a pretty awesome hot chocolate.

Then I'll be sure to talk to you when I get the tattoo.

So when are you going to stop by with flowers or sweets? I am going stir crazy here alone…

When I'm less busy. I promise.

Well not really an artist just an attempted one but I could try and come up with something for you. That is a good size, if I ever got one it would be a small one also. Now you got me interested in them. Any colors you want specifically?

I'm sure you're a great artist; don't be so down on yourself. I don't want it too small, though... just enough that it's visible and you can make out the shape. And really? Only black. I wanted more of some sort of tribal design, I think, and they're usually solely black, right?

Have you heard of sarcasm? 

I have, yes, but I was explaining that I wasn't trying to be anything but honest.

That would be nice... if I liked coffee.

We should get something matching, little brother. 

As nice as that would be, Frances, I don't quite think that whatever tattoo you'd want to get would suit me.

Never! II am too stubborn for that!

I know you are.

Charming.

I wasn't trying to be? I was just pointing out that I was asking for suggestions as to what kind of design I should get for my tattoo, not that I was asking for thoughts on getting one. But regardless, I do actually thank you for your opinion.

I will, definitely. If I get it, you'll be one of the first people I go to.

A wolf? That sounds like fun, a wolf has always been one of my favorite animals. Well I am some what good at drawing, did you have any ideas you wanted it took look like, like size or shape? Yeah…I like that and expressions of people are really important.

Oh, wow, you're an artist? That's really great to here. But I don't want anything too big... I just want something on my right shoulder... maybe the size of a sand dollar? Or a little smaller?

Yeah plus the bruising on my face is going away and I can cover that up with make up. Its my bruised Ribs that are killing me right now.

Yeah, I'm sure that it makes it hard to breathe. I'm sure you'll recover in no time, though, Soul Sister. You wouldn't give him the satisfaction of being down, would you?

Now that sounds awesome.

I wasn't really looking for opinions, just suggestions, but thank you.

Yeah I just really want to get back to that. They have been really understanding about what happened and all but I don’t want to keep putting my life on hold. He took three days from me that should be all he gets you know?

Exactly. You don't owe him any more of your time. You are Mercedes Jones. He doesn't deserve to have that hold over you.

Yeah, I mean, sure, it’s 90s, but, tribal kind of… has a look to it, you know? I could very well imagine it on you. Where did you want to get it again?

Exactly. It just has this certain appeal to it that I've always admired. My shoulder, probably the back of it... That way it would be easy to hide  with a shirt for when I work, but easy to show off, too, if I wanted to.

Well I can’t ever seem to figure out what I want to get, my mind always changes. Plus, I hear that it hurts really bad, I don’t know how fond I am of that part. That is a good point…that is one of the reasons on the pro side of getting a tattoo.

That's where I am, personally... I want to get a wolf, I know that, I just don't know what exactly it should look like. And it does hurt really bad but I've always had a high pain threshold so I'm not too worried about that. Exactly. It's like art or writing... it's an expression of who you are.

You should get a blue dolphin on your left ass cheek… Wolves are just too common now. 

As eccentric as that might be, a dolphin doesn't fit me and I'd rather not put anything on my ass. But thank you for the suggestion, Damon.
