So, people of DDD, a few questions for you.
Do you have any sort of trademark? Something you say, do, or wear, are never seen without? If you do, what does it mean to you? Did you put thought into it or pick it up on a whim? Does it represent or remind you of something?

On a somewhat related note, is anyone here into symbolism?

So that's what it's called.

Why the Flamel? What does it stand for?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

It's the symbol of alchemy -- similar to the symbol of medicine that doctors use.

So like the rod of Asclepius... Yours seems a lot more proud. Where did you pick it up?

It's the art and science that are alchemy - I don't think Brother or I had another choice.

Why not? Not all alchemists wear it.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Brother and I aren't regular alchemists.

I noticed.

...are you avoiding this on purpose?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Avoiding...? No, I don't mean to!

[gonnabe1st.livejournal.com]

Fair enough. Well, why didn't you have a choice? I mean, it's not like you needed a symbol to stick on yourselves at all.

It's a reminder to us. Of what we have to accomplish, and what we've done.

[gonnabe1st.livejournal.com]

...That makes sense.

Like I said, for us there wasn't any other choice.
