[The transmission cuts on just as it seems Percy's attention is elsewhere for a moment.]

- nesco!

[A frustrated noise, then he seems to be more focused on the network.]

Are there any businesses within the city that cater to tattoo removal? None of the normal methods seem to be succeeding.

[ooc: forward-dating this a touch; taking place just after the cutie marks actually turn into cutie marks.]

If you, um, find out... let me know.

[voice; locked]

[aperfectthird]

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised it isn't an isolated incident.

[voice; locked]

[iwatchtjhooker]

Is anything, here?

[voice; locked]

[aperfectthird]

No, it seems that everything has to be a delightfully communal experience.

[SO. MUCH. SARCASM.]

Should you find anything, will you let me know?

[binarysky]

What'd you try so far?

[aperfectthird]

Thus far, a Vanishing Charm, a Scouring Charm, an Erasure Charm, and even a Siphoning Charm, but with no luck.

[binarysky]

Eesh...that's a lot.

Could you really siphon a tattoo?

[aperfectthird]

It's only ink under the skin, and Siphoning Charms can be used to drain ink. In theory, it ought to have worked.

[friendshipistragic]

What if they're like freckles and...they're just here to stay.

[yuujou_wa_mahou_desu]

Uuuwah! That would be cute!

[aperfectthird]

I'm sorry, but I beg to differ.

[yuujou_wa_mahou_desu]

You can just cover it up, though. No one will see!

[aperfectthird]

Please don't even suggest that.

[friendshipistragic]

How come? I have freckles.

[aperfectthird]

As do I, and I personally feel they're quite enough.

[iwasherefirst]

You've gone and gotten a tattoo?

Voice;

[aperfectthird]

I didn't 'get one'; I think it got me.

Voice;

[iwasherefirst]

Oi. City thing. Maybe it'll be gone by midnight?

Voice;

[aperfectthird]

I sincerely hope so. This is not something I particularly care to have branded on me.

I presume one didn't get you?

[There is such an undertone of lucky you there.]

[dropkick]

Jumping the gun. Give it 24 hours. [ 24 hours...ish. ]

[aperfectthird]

Tattoos don't just disappear after twenty-four hours.

...unless the City has managed to tamper with that as well?

[Voice]

[badhairlifetime]

What was that that you shouted? The 'normal method' was it?

[Voice]

[aperfectthird]

Yes, the normal method. None of the charms I've tried have worked.

[Voice]

[badhairlifetime]

Charms are your normal method. [She's thinking the sort that Dibbler hands out; i.e. everyday, normal items with loads of paint on them. And possibly some crushed up bits of old wares that never sold.] I don't suppose you've got several back-up methods, then?

[Voice]

[aperfectthird]

Back-up methods? Such as? I don't believe a sponge and warm water work on tattoos.
