I made a post analyzing Hardcase's tattoo and armour design and LOST IT
Hahahahahhahahahahahahaha
Anyway
A thought occurred to me...
Hardcase's tattoo and armour design are literally his name in aurebesh characters
Source
Okay so Idk how I came across this, I was actually doing and thinking about something else entirely;;;
The following is the aurebesh characters, gotten from here
So! Clearly, uh maybe not that clearly
But! The characters H-A-R and C-A-S are literally there on both his tattoo and markings on his armour -- the character A being flipped at the chest plate, mixed with S at the end of the armour along with R character; then the H on his chin, likely mixed with S character and a likely stylised C character over his head?
The characters D and E though, I am not too sure but honestly I don't wanna overthink this as I already am overthinking this too much;;
Then again, D and E are first and end letters for DIE and that ugh I regret thinking about that now I'm just sad;; he probably didn't include it in his design to avoid thinking about it;;; he probably just avoids thinking about death -- he was even very calm as he set that explosive;;;;; ughhhh whyyy am I doing this to myself;;;
But, I have one headcanon now from the possibility of this -- he is probably very very very good at calligraphy.
