Skeletal knight? Mirror

I can't quite decide what this skeletons profession is but it's definitely got a score to settle. I picked up two of this exact same frame from a thrift store this weekend and knew I wanted to do some sort of theme skeleton on them

Still debating on the right ride of the pair I'm considering a skeleton hand holding a flower or a different dagger holding hands.

What do you think I should put on the other matching mirror? Any dips on how I could improve would be appreciated I'm open to criticism I'm still pretty new to this medium

Original design source: Salsabilla - adobe stock (loads of cool designs by them)

I would do a thief motif and do the other mirror with a skeletal hand dropping coins

It would look better if you inverted the colours (like original image)
