My thought was a system where spells can be saved on scrolls or something, but if instead you get a tattoo you can activate the spell multiple times and obviously can’t be stolen.

Temporary tattoos would be good for a single spell, and permanent tattoos would be either infinite or multiple-use, I guess. But if it wasn't spells so much as, I dunno, elements or something? More abstract art, various patterns, like tribal war paint or henna designs, and certain patterns give control over various things in the physical environment.
Or they could summon things. Like, a police officer has a pair of handcuffs somewhere so they can call them whenever, weapon tattoos would probably be controlled, but of course that would only really work if you had people strip. Artists have to ink in the object you're sealing, but after you can put them back.

I really want to add stuff to the particularly good threads thread but I do not brain enough for summaries and format. (Also idk if they meet criteria, I am very biased)
My suggestions:
Kithabel and Milan
Promise and Ari
Promise and the Lord Ruler
Promise and Minus
Promise and the admin
Promise and Elves
Demon Cam in Suranse
the admin and Demon Cam
Adanya and Demon Cam
Matilda in Elcenia
Shell Bell and Kiro
Gem and Cerebella and Magnetar
Holly and Crystal and Max - this, I know why, quality cat moments
Blair in Aurum
May and Kanimir
Quilt and Kithabel
Break room repair world
Faith and Chelsea in Eclipse

Literally all three Six-Artifact-Pileup Annie threads
Most of the continuities in the sandbox list, especially Amounts of Dragon, This Is Constant Escalation, Coruscation, League
Literally everything in Skylight Empire.

That is probably way too many things but I don't care.
The WAFFLES will submit to this indignity.

I agree with (at least):
Kithabel and Milan
Promise and the Lord Ruler
Promise and Elves
Matilda in Elcenia
Blair in Aurum

Six-Artifact-Pileup Annie
Amounts of Dragon
Coruscation

I am probably not up for writing summaries right now either; I am doing math and it has been a long while since I read a lot of these.

I'm planning to do ~1 PGT post/day and some of these would definitely make the cut.

I have a guess about the arbitrary love potion requirement!

My guess is that it requires her to do one or more of the things she has been refraining from doing!

edit: well, we just found out i was wrong!
