Executive producer Selena Gomez got matching semicolon tattoos alongside Tommy Dorfman (who plays Ryan) and Alisha Boe (who plays Jessica). While Clay wasn't able to go through with his tattoo in Episode 1 (and it doesn't seem as though actor Dylan Minnette has any ink either), several other members of the cast did. The tagline on Project Semicolon's website is "your story is not over," a particularly poignant statement that fits the show and perfectly suits a semicolon. Clay has made a point of making sure Hannah's story is heard even though she is not able to continue it herself. The emphasis on the story not ending is a big part of Project Semicolon and something that resonates especially with 13 Reasons Why. You are the author and the sentence is your life. The semicolon was chosen because in literature a semicolon is used when an author chooses to not end a sentence. The project was started by asking others to draw a semicolon on their wrist to show support. Founded by the late Amy Bleuel in 2013, they seek to equip people with the "right tools," as well as present "hope and love to those who are struggling with depression, suicide addiction and self-injury." When speaking to People in 2015, Bleuel explained why they chose to use a semicolon as their symbol and how it took off as a tattoo: Supporters just chose to get the tattoos on their own. But the semicolon also represents something much bigger than the show itself.Ĭlay's semicolon tattoo also alludes to the Semicolon Project, a nonprofit organization that works to prevent suicide through education and raising awareness. He passes out in the middle of the process and leaves with just a comma on his wrist, indicating that the story is actually continuing with barely a skip. However, it's important to note that Clay doesn't actually end up completing the design. It represents that Clay is moving on but not forgetting he's starting the second half of the sentence without fully disconnecting from the first. The tattoo commemorates Hannah while also serving a more figurative purpose: semicolons indicate a pause in a sentence more firmly than a comma but not quite as definitively as a period. Skye encouraged the tattoo to help Clay find closure after the events of Season 1 they agreed that it would be a good way for him to put the past behind him. There are a few different explanations for his tattoo, both literal and metaphorical. But what does Clay's semicolon tattoo mean on 13 Reasons Why? in hand, Clay settles in to get a semicolon tattoo. Warning: minor spoilers ahead for Episode 1! In the first episode of the second season of 13 Reasons Why, Clay and Skye finally answer the question everyone has had since this show began: how are these teenagers able to get so many tattoos? (Seriously, though: who's footing the bill for all that ink?) With a fake I.D.
