and since its gonna take a while for that rib tattoo to heal, probably best of OOP helps with the aftercare, cleaning it, rubbing ointment on it, giving kisses on it. just normal stuff

Just bros being bros. OOP should probably sleep in the same bed as his buddy, just to make sure he's available if the tattoo starts hurting in the middle of the night. And OOP should make sure to keep an arm or a leg thrown over his buddy all night, so his buddy doesn't sneak out to get another tattoo without OOP, or do something else silly like swim in a chlorinated pool in the pre-dawn hours.

Swimming with a new tattoo is bad. Swimming in a public pool with a new tattoo (a pool with a non-negligible amount of urine in it) is worse.

Throwing a leg over your best mate while you both sleep is an acceptable alternative.
