[It's probably somewhere nice, existing on spite... And he knows that because nobody eats peacocks. Normally he'd be the first to think "that thing was someone's Embertide dinner," but nope. That little shit is making someone else miserable and looking fabulous doing it and that is a respectable animal who has earned a long and happy life.]
Mmhmm. Remarkable that they're all uniform. I think they saw it as a challenge. [You can't even tell where one artist's work begins and another ends and Molly can't either. He wanted them to connect and a few silver got him what he wanted.
Not one to explain something like this without a clear demonstration, he sheds his coat and pulls down the sleeve of his shirt so that the flowers are more clearly visible working their way around both the peacock and the tail-end of the snakes.
It's hard to tell when you're not paying attention but there's several different flowers, taking up a good chunk of his shoulder and most of the right side of his back- a red carnation, a pinkish Protea, scattered dandelions in between some of the larger flowers, and two lilies that the snakes seem to be winding out from behind.] If I'm remembering right [and he is because he set a lot of his personal set of ethics and beliefs by these flowers], the carnation is for love, the protea is for transformation, dandelions for survival, and lilies for new life and acceptance of an end to one.
[All chosen because he wanted to separate himself from whoever that was. He buried some of his tattoos in that pattern to spite a past life.]
