#a rat!

all right. big question time: what’s the second tattoo billy gets???

theres a big part of me that wants to say he spends several years in the ‘i just get tattoos that i think look neat’ phase before he starts to get anything actually meaningful to him or bigger pieces that definitely need more than one session to complete. like.... his tattoos are just rebellion and freedom for him from neil

so i can see his second tattoo being another stock choice he just picks out at the tattoo parlor like a dagger that looks like its stabbing his skin or maybe a dagger with a snake wrapped around. im also suddenly feeling really passionate about billy with a barbed wire tattoo around his other arm... feels like a very trashy, billy move to make

In Praise of the Great Rats in Literature. Literally.

And yet the idiom always refers to human rottenness. Shakespeare, for instance, seems to have worked the idiom into Hamlet as both a motif representing human sin and a principle of story structure. The inciting incident of the play—Claudius’s murder of his brother King Hamlet—creates an odor of moral rot perceptible to watchman Marcellus in Act I when he famously states, “Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.” The odor turns Hamlet into a literal ratcatcher.

In Act III scene ii, Hamlet forms a plan to catch his uncle like a rodent by staging a play that will prick his uncle’s conscience. He nicknames the play “The Mousetrap.” Immediately afterward in scene iv, Hamlet discovers someone hiding behind the arras in his mother’s room and, thinking it’s Claudius, Hamlet cries out, “How now? A rat?” and stabs the intruder, who turns out to be the busybody Polonius, not Claudius. Hamlet becomes a murderer of the innocent just like Claudius, and catches himself in his own guilty mousetrap. Shakespeare would like us all to know: Hamlet is the rat. We are all the rat.

is the giant rat from jaiden animations' "thing i feel guilty about" video furbait?

A RAT! Jaiden, I’m sorry, but you’re good at creating furbait characters. I know you may not be comfortable with the knowledge you created a furbait character, but it is. That’s all there is. An apology and the truth.
