"I am actually 18, but even if i did want.. 'ink', I don't know what I'd get, really"
Her mind waivered from subject to subject, pausing a moment to ponder what she would even get under the circumstances of a tattoo.
And no ideas came. 

Violetta's eyes widened a bit at the tattoo, not in a shocked way but more... Admiring it? She looked thoroughly impressed
"Woah.. It looks really cool, i think" She nodded, having never really met many people with tattoos outside of her boyfriend and half brother- it was always quite exciting to see what people are doing with themselves.

She noticed the joke flopped, and tried not to look too disheartened. Maybe joking about the whole 20% of your body being burnt isnt a good first meeting topic to joke about...
Violetta sat back a bit upon the mention of the easy life of being a lizard, nodding along in general agreement. It did seem nice being pampered like that... No society or expectations placed upon you. Just eating bugs and sleeping.

"Yeah... He looks like a lot of work. I was thinking about getting a chinchilla or a bird." Owa owa

"I mostly just use the notebook to make notes on... Stuff." 
Beating around the bush a bit there, she tried to make it vague. Violetta is aware now that being completely honest about the whole 'i keep fact files on everyone' thing is a little weird, in fact.

"Oh dear God I hope they give us AC... I really dont want to be forced into short sleeves.. Maybe I can just stay in my room with a fan."

◆ "Even better." Margo chuckled. "You don't even gotta bother your parents and translate a consent form. Now *That* Was a nightmare..."

□ It really had been. Her Swedish by this point was at least functional, but translating a language she was still an amateur in? That took a certain level of bravery; or, perhaps it was stupidity. Whatever the case, she'd went through translating those documents, and then went through her appointment in good spirits. Anyways. Looking up at the other gal, she began to piece together an idea of what had happened to leave her marked this way: an explosion. It made sense, at least from what she could see, and with the mentions of hot weather being a terrible time she could only imagine how burnt up the rest of her body was.

▪︎ Unfortunate, but...

◆ "No, he's not that much work, actually. I feed him a few times a week, occasionally clean his cage out, and sometimes swap the decorations in his enclosure. It's... Pretty easy." Margo spoke, looking over at Cosmo as he ran about. "Go with a chinchilla, though, for the love of God. Birds don't shut their fuckin' mouths at all, and I've noticed the rooms aren't soundproofed all that well. Chinchillas are cute, though... Birds of a feather." A compliment, but would it stick? "Anyways, if they say no AC then maybe just get yourself a mini fridge so you can always keep ice packs around to keep cool. I dunno. What's the aversion to short sleeves, by the way? Same thing as what killed one of your eyes?"

"Well I actually do speak a bit of swedish, I was really good at a lot of languages when I was younger but with time they mostly slipped away"
Subtle brag from her part, not that she intended it like that at all. Bragging sets off bad impressions and first impressions are a MUST in this world.
That's how she sees it anyways.

Did that even count as a brag? If anything she indirectly admitted to forgetting several languages. At current, Violetta's fluence in swedish didnt expand much further than simple conversation, not that she spent much time out and bout Isakstad anyways.
And as for the burns, it was more a self esteem thing- her ego was easily crushed when it comes to things like appearance (especially after the burning incident). As fragile as a dandelion in wind, something as simple as self esteem was quick to crumble.

"I was leaning towards a chinchilla, they're friendlier and obviously quieter" She smiled slightly at the thought of a chinchilla... Such silly little munchkins... Absolutely head over heels with the idea of them.

"Mini fridge sounds smart... And you'd be right, I'm still recovering from the burning.. And sunlight can really mess it up right now and make it all gross and painful."
While it wasn't a lie, she refused to acknowledge the whole self esteem thing too.
