Quote 1
Tori was the only one in the tattoo place, so I felt safe getting the symbol of Abnegation—a pair of hands, palms up as if to help someone stand, bounded by a circle—on my right shoulder. I know it was a risk, especially after all that's happened. But that symbol is a part of my identity, and it felt important to me that I wear it on my skin. (25.2)
Oh, geez, really? After all that "I'm Dauntless now, I always was," now Tris is back to saying "well, I'm a little Abnegation, too." Also, check out that her acceptance of her Abnegation identity comes in the form of… a tattoo, which isn't very Abnegation of her.
Quote 2
Marcus shows us his hands. A belt is curled around one of his fists. Slowly he unwinds it from his fingers. (25.120)
Not all families are alike. There's Tris's loving family, and then there's Four's family: one kid, dead mother, abusive father who used to beat Four and imprison him in a small closet. Sure, Tris's family might feel wrong for her identity—but Four's family is bad for his health.
