remote cards

She is raking through the horror films. She has dark hair, tied up with a red bandana in a bow. She has that fifties/psycho Billy/whatever kind of look. With her hair off her neck I expect to see tattoos, but surprisingly I don’t see any. Nor on her bare arms. Glancing downwards though, I find them. On her feet. One foot has the White Rabbit, the other has a snoozing Mad Hatter, both done in a story book illustration style, fine blue line work. Other tattoos hinted at, disappearing beneath the line of her 3/4 length trousers. Her boyfriend comes over and she flashes him a DVD with enthusiasm, I expect to be a horror film she has found. Instead it is the film of the musical RENT. She oozes enthusiasm to watch it, he seems less than convinced.
