[ Cut image is gonna be to a rather odd looking individual with more--are those tattoos?--than he has normal skin, and apparently just as many piercings.
He's got what looks to be a playful look on his face, but what with the uptick of a sigh he lets loose, there's clear annoyance here. ]
Here I thought I already had all kinds'a social media on my phone. [ the guy's voice is deep, like the bottom of a volcano. ] But this one's new.
Ever hear aboutta thing called Marie Antoinette Syndrome? Where peoples' hair suddenly turn fuckin'. White? Due ot stress or some shit?
I ain't stressed, but turns out it might be real.
Anyway. You can call me Dabi.
Gonna' use this opportunity to announce the opening of my shop, Troublebound.
I do tattooing and body mod shit.
If it's your thing, we can talk. I do good work, just look me up on Insta and Snap.
Look forward to working with ya.

[ he knows the answer to this, but it's still fun to ask. ]
I'd have no patience for nurturing plants myself, so it is understandable that one might have no interest in cultivating such things, regardless of the profit margin or the culture. Especially as your talents lie elsewhere.
I quite like the white hair. It's striking.
As for your face--the thing where your mouth seems to encompass from one end to the other and your eyes go aggressively beady and threatening. You're a terror to look at. It's rather intriguing.
no subject
[ he'll play this game, who cares if youre technically his boss. ]
Hey, growing plants can be fun. Not that I've ever done more than a few tomato plants as a kid. I don't got the time for that right now.
Talents elsewhere, exaaaactly.
and no way--the white totally makes me look like some anime protag. there's no way that can stand, yanno??
[ but oh, gil cant see him grin ]
oh thaaaat thing. oh, yanno. the whole effect of fun inkwork along the corners of the mouth and up the face that extends the way yer mouth curves.
the eyes thing tho that's all me. raised by bats or somethin' like that.
no subject
[ he'll give him a polite enough out, it's ok! ]
Oh, I enjoy a touch of foliage, but that's why I pay people to maintain the garden. Time is money, and I've more of one than the other.
Some people would kill to have it look as natural as it does on you. I also have a dear friend who's recently gone unnaturally silver--some people have all the luck.
[ put that away there are children present ]
It's a striking physical illusion. You look like your face is about to split in two. And I'm terribly curious as to which brand of bat does that with their eyes.
no subject
[ listen, it's totally fine. ]
What, you wanna trade in your goldilocks for a touch of silver? i aint sure the snow-dappled look would suit you, big guy.
and ill take that as a compliment for my work. thank ya very much. i know how to work a 3D Canvas and im damn proud of it.
and i dunno about the brand but it sure as shit aint gucci.
no subject
[ the magic bullshit, of course. ]
Hardly! I'm merely stating that silver is charming on most people. I'm already unnaturally pale, all things considered; I hardly need to look older and more washed out than I already do.
Your work got you where you are. I don't pay attention to things that aren't intriguing and full of promise. Heed that, even if everything else seems strange.
And now I'm wondering how one goes about designer branding an animal. Do you breed them and then--? Or do you have to grow them in a laboratory for it to count. How garish.
no subject
You mean that magic shit, then, don't you. a guy like you with more money than hair follicles are definitely the type to chase something insane as magic. should have known.
And good, keep the gold. It compliments you so don't go changin' it.
If you're ever willing to get a tattoo of your own, you know i'd let you have it free of charge, for the first few sessions at least.
consider it a thanks for listening to my madman speal.
and listen.
listen the only animals i brand are party animals. i dont got time to breed critters just to draw on them--i wait for the rich ones to fall on my doorstep after they see my work and then my hands do the rest.
no subject
I'll stay gold, even if you won't keep silver.
Also, I have an unfortunate thing to admit to you--I've received a tattoo. Magically. I'm holding you to that promise of free ink, though~
[ nyuhuhu, like he needs it but still. it's fun to tease people and send them up walls and back down again. ]
Even if they want a Chinese character purports that it says 'strength', but is actually a mishmash of scribble that means nothing?
no subject
That's fuckin' bullshit and I'm pissed.
I'm not gonna' like the idea of magic taking away the one thing I'm proud of.
Whatever tatto you got, i bet i can do it better.
even if they want a chinese character that says 'chinese food' while they think it says 'peace'.
no subject
[ and so Gilgamesh just. sends Dabi tits for free, taking a picture of the sweeping red lines that carve up his side and chest. ]
My eyes also turned red around the same time.
How would you improve on this tattoo, then?
I do not want a Chinese character that says 'easy access' on any part of my body, by the by.
no subject
...I mean, it's pretty plain as it's just lines, but truth be told I ain't sure how to improve on it other than maybe making it more stylistic. Like with parts of it breaking away and covering more skin.
Which I would do, by the way.
instead of stamping 'easy access' on you.
no subject
I mean. If you draw an intriguing enough sketch, I may go ahead and let you do it, if you feel so inclined to meet the challenge.
Good. I know the characters for quite a few rude things in Chinese, so I'd know and would admire your audacity and also punch you in the face.
no subject
Yeah? Seriously? No shit?
hell, consider it done, then. I'll do some doodles on my free time, bet.
and come on, don't punch me in the face, that's like. 90% of my moneymaker out here.
That'd be like cuttin' a finger off a hand model.
no subject
I like interesting things. The lines are interesting, but plain--I'm unsure if they're magical or simply something my previous life had for the simple pleasure of the aesthetic.
It could be interesting, to cut a finger off a hand model. Think of the compositions you could come up with, using the extra space.
no subject
idk if theyre magical either youll have to come in and see if actual ink messes with the magical shit or not
and ill have to color-match too
and man idk
negative space is a huge thing in trad art but im not sure if its so easy to use in photography
