I'm thinking of giving Rick a tattoo, what do you think [Image Can Not Be Found]

My evil mind has come up with he's been out drinking with his poker buddies who tease him about Beckett. hmmmm…maybe its his birthday? they all get drunk and Rick comes home with a shiny new tattoo, maybe a pair of handcuffs on his right shoulder blade?

I don't want anything too big or obvious but nothing he can totally hide either [Image Can Not Be Found] Naturally being handcuffs Beckett will get it immediatley and he's going to have a damn hard time hiding them from her as its summer, and his tattoo is itching like crazy. Is April summer over there?

Oh interesting idea Nathan does in fact already have a tattoo. It's on his right hip. It's an eqyptian motif. You can see it in a picture here http://www.vanishingtattoo.com…..illion.htm

The handcuffs thing would be awesome! Or maybe it's something to do with Beckett like a heart or ribbon with her birthday in it  He realizes he got a tattoo but doesn't quite know what the date means. Then when it itches Beckett caves and goes to help scratch around it (scratching the actual tattoo after you get it hurts soo much!!) Anyway she sees it's her birthday and is like "what?!"

April is pretty much spring for the NY area. Summer usually starts around June. It's really hot in July and August and decent the rest of the year. I hope this helps.

Yep I've ween Nathan's tattoo (on Firefly's episode Trash), its really sexy. I love men with tattoos. [Image Can Not Be Found] Hurts too much to scratch the actual tattoo? and how would you know that? [Image Can Not Be Found]

I like the idea of the heart or ribbon but I think its a bit girlie for Castle and I'm sure Beckett would get it immediately with the cuffs and she would still give him hell about it. I can just hear him grumbling about “so called friends” etc [Image Can Not Be Found]

Still warm enough he could be in a cotton shirt so she can see the padding though his shirt. She's just not going to let him get away with this [Image Can Not Be Found]

I'm soooo wicked

Lol I know about tattoos because I have one =) When I first got it, it would itch but because the skin was still healing I couldn't directly scratch it. I could scratch around it though. Also for the first few days of having a tattoo, it bleeds a lot! You have to keep it bandaged for the first few hours and then change the bandage periodically after that.

The heart or ribbon are girlie I will admit that lol. I just thought it would be funny and add more tension if Castle had something that was directly linked to Beckett on him. Being that you said he'd be drunk when he gets it, it would be like an uncensored act that his heart belongs to her. That's why I suggested her birthday lol.

Lol a few tips (that I wish someone had told me  lol): A) Eat before you go to get it. If you don't eat the pain from the needle will really mess your stomach up and make you dizzy and nauseous. B) If you get it on an arm or leg, make sure you rest it for a few hours. I got my tattoo on my wrist then thought I could go to work where I was usually using my hands alot. My tattoo wound up bleed a little more that it was supposed too.

 Remember Tattoos are permanent!! Don't get something you'll be embarrassed over in a few years. They will fade and they will get wrinkly as you age. My fun little tattoo fact, if you get a white tattoo on white skin when it fades away, it will basically disappear. That's what I did so when I'm older and don't want it any more, you won't be able to find it. Plus I can see it and not the whole world (unless they are close enough)

Lol I got mine much in a Castle fashion. I went straight to the parlor randomly one day and got it. Never gave it a second thought. I knew if I thought of it I was going to chicken out lol.

Lol my biologicial dad got one. It's got something to do with NASCAR. I never understood him much lol

all my ex's had tats, first one had 9 or 10 when i left him, one with my name on his should blade, others had 4 and a half sleeve, his left arm I think.

Oh man that stinks about the guy that got your name tattooed on him lol You should never get someone's name…unless it's your kid's name. Then you're pretty safe that they'll always be with you.
