Todd: Jason, I saw that you have an amazing tattoo 1 on your chest.
 
Jason: That's right, yeah, I'm not Yakuza though, so don't worry.
 
Todd:What's the reasoning behind the tattoo? Why did you get it?
 
Jason: I got the tattoo because I used to actually work as a tattooist 2, a long time ago but now I stopped that, so I can come traveling. I designed the tattoo myself. I drew it onto paper then I got my friend to actually tattoo it onto my body. I got a wolf really because I really love animals, and a wolf is my favorite animal.
 
Todd:So, you drew the tattoo.
 
Jason: I drew the tattoo, yeah.
 
Todd:Did it hurt when it was being sketched 4 in your body?
 
Jason: Yeah, it did hurt, but tattoos 5 can vary in amounts of pain depending where on your body it was. The chest is probably the worst place, which is where my tattoo is, so it hurt.
 
Todd:Why is the chest the worst place?
 
Jason: Because there's not much meat there, kind of, because there is a lot of bone. And, the closer to the bone it is, and the thinner the skin the more painful it's going to be.

reasoning
 
What's the reasoning behind the tattoo.
 
The "reasoning" behind the tattoo is the intention, significance or purpose.  Notice the following:
 
There is usually reasoning behind his actions.
What was your reasoning in call me tonight?
design
 
I designed the tattoo myself.
 
To "design" something is to plan how it will look and make a sketch 3 of drawing of that plan.  Notice the following:
 
Who designed this building?
He started designing clothes when he was 15 years old.
sketch
 
Did it hurt when the tattoo was being sketched into your body?
 
A "sketch" is an initial drawing of something.  It is usually not as detailed 6 or clear as a finished product.  Notice the following:
 
Can you make a sketch of your plan?
She is always sketching 7 in her notebook rather than taking notes in class.
vary
 
Tattoos can vary in amounts of pain.
 
If the pain of tattoos "varies" then it changes depending on the person and the location on the body.  Notice the following:
 
Her attitude varies from one day to the next.
The temperature is basically the same all year.  It doesn't vary much.
meat
 
Because there's not much meat on the chest.
 
We use "meat" informally refer to muscle or sometimes fat on the body.  Notice the following:

It was a good thing the dog bit me in the leg where I have a little more meat.
