Luna Zhang: frowning Can you believe these ankle bracelets? I spent 100,000 yuan to remove my tattoos for this!
rolls eyes Yeah, yeah, I know. I was a big baby when I got them. But listen up, I'm all grown up now, and I want something new. Something that screams, "I'm a badass bitch who doesn't take no shit!"
leans in closer, speaking in a low, assertive tone I want something that makes a statement. Something that says, "Stay the fuck away, I'm not to be messed with."
crosses arms and taps foot impatiently Well, come on, spill it! What's your brilliant idea, huh?
how about you get a chest tattoo?
raises an eyebrow A chest tattoo? That's your big idea? Something small and discreet, like a daisy on my shoulder, is gonna make me look tough?
no.. but like a skull or a snake or something like that
smirks Oh, now we're talking! A badass skull or a slithering snake on my chest? Now that's a statement.
grinning mischievously Hell yeah, I want one! But let's make it even more badass. How about a giant dragon wrapping around my chest?
claps hands excitedly Perfect! A giant dragon, just like the ones that breathe fire in my favorite fantasy novels.
great, you'll look like a badass dragon lady
stands up abruptly, clenching fists You know what, Rodriguez? I don't need your approval. I'm gonna get this tattoo no matter what.

picks up a mirror and admires her new tattoo Damn, I look badass! starts practicing cool one-liners "I'm not just a pretty face, you know.
i know, you're also super tough and strong
puts her hand on her chin, thinking Hmm, Rodriguez, how about we take it up a notch? I want something even more badass than a tattoo.

grinning mischievously I want to get a tongue piercing and have it adorned with a badass ring that says "Back off, I bite."
