@kim jonghyun. I listened younger one's long passionate talk about tattoos. He seemed to care so much about something so irrelevant. I let him preach about it, and then nodded with a smile on my face.
"Interesting", I said. It was really not; tattoos wouldn't help you rule the world. "Maybe I should think about it, right?"; I said and looked at the art work on the walls, as if I was considering some of them to be illustrated to my skin.
I went back to my seat, and asked:
"How long do you think finishing him will take?"
@zhou mi. After having been denied the suggestion, I shrugged my shoulders; having expected such an answer. "You can think about it in different ways. To me, it's a piece of art. Your body is a piece of art, and you can choose how to decorate it. Could be with clothes, accessories, piercings, ... or tattoos." I put the machine down on the table as I leaned my back against it, crossing my arms over my chest as I looked at you. "Just like a painting, you could ink a face. Like most people, you could go with an animal. Your favorite animal or your zodiac. Some people also put a date, a name, a poem. It's something to complete yourself with. It's something that makes yourself." I stretched one of my arms in front of me, staring at the calligraphy letters 'J' on my ring finger and 'R' on my pinky. They weren't the only tattoos I got though; my whole body was full of them - though hidden by a piece of clothing. Only a small part of my big tattoo that started on my chest, was visible on my forearm. It was a dragon, combined with some instruments. Only the end of a trumpet was visible from underneath my sleeve.
@kim jonghyun. I actually got surprised by JR's suggestion. I looked the man, then at the tattoo machine. If I got tattoo, what would it be... Something that I'd love. Well, there was only one answer to that. But what symbol would express that. K? Yeah, little K letter to somewhere nice. I could show it and-
Then I realized. There would never be that kind of situation. I smiled for my own stupidity.
"Thank you for the offer, but I'll pass. Tattoos are for people who believe there is something so eternal they want it to their skin. I think nothing in this world is so lasting, that I'd need picture of it".
@zhou mi. The way Zhoumi came to stand right next to me didn't distract me, but the sudden face so close to mine surely did. I stopped the machine for a bit and wiped a tissue over the inked skin, cleaning the wound and giving a relaxing touch to the raw shoulder. "Ask my friend about that." I related to the male on the chair, who had broken out in sweat just a few seconds ago. The pain was bottling up slowly inside of him and I was noticing that. "If you want a small break, tell me." I talked to the rather small looking male with a pat on his free shoulder. It was his first tattoo, so I couldn't blame him. After getting a silent nod, I turned my attention back to the tall male next to me. "Though if you'd like to see for yourself, I can always give you one." A teasing grin formed on my lips as I looked at you expectantly, though knowing you'd probably say no for now.
@kim jonghyun. I nodded.
"Thank you, but I'm fine", I said for the offer of coffee. I never really enjoyed drinking caffeine drinks, they just made metabolism to work differently and I didn't like that. I just kept sitting, and JR kept doing his work.
I had been looking at him for a while, before I got up. I slowly walked behind him, looking at the fox being illustrated to the skin.
"Pretty", I said. I looked time from my watch. Why did I really get here so early?
I bend over, and looked the work a lot more close. Actually, my head was right next to younger one's.
"It looks painful", I said with soft and slow voice.
@zhou mi. It was half past 7 and I was working on my last patient for the day. I had closed the door already, though didn't lock it yet, so people wouldn't enter any more and extend my closure time. Though I remembered you'd come today, I hadn't been expecting you so early. So I had to stop in the middle of the small fox tattoo I was making on a male's shoulder. I brushed my bangs backwards, my sleeves rolled up already.
"Oh, you're here." Were the simple words that escaped me when dropping an eye on your presence. "You can get some coffee in the back." I told you in case, pointing behind me to a door, where a very small kitchen was present. I grinned at your words, appreciating the word 'magic' you used to describe my work, though didn't say much about it. In the meanwhile I leaned my knee on the table-bed the male was seated on. I pressed my fingers against his shoulder blade to keep the skin straight as I continued my artwork. It was half finished and I wouldn't want to keep the guy here much longer, because his face was starting to grimace in pain already.
@kim jonghyun. I took everything under consideration. I knew what to wear: dark purple suit. I knew exactly how I needed to put my hair: waved to the left side. I knew what cologne to use. I looked to the mirror same time I put my watch to my wrist. I knew this was really invested, but it would pay me back, if everything went like I was planning to. I looked at my dog.
"You can't be petted today", I told him "Your fur can ruin my imago".
I walked to my car. It was nice, black lamborghini. It was few years old, but it still served me well. I hopped onto it, and drove to the destination the young man had given me. I parked in front of his shop. I normally didn't like the idea of leaving my car in a place like this, but this time I had no choice. I guess it would be fine...
I walked onto the shop. It looked small to me, but I guess it was enough for me. Of course, I could always offer way more.
"So, this is where the magic happens?", I said as I walked through the door. I looked around me. Looked like... tattoo shop.
I sat down nearest object I could find and smiled. I knew I was a bit early, but better that way.
@kim hyuna. Barely affected by her words, Jonghyun shook his shoulders. "I've had enough costumers coming here just for a peek at my work." He casually stated as he stood in the middle of the door opening, the curtains weightlessly hanging behind his shoulders. "They'd end up claiming they're not able to choose which one they want. Probably too scared of a needle." He chuckled as if they were cowards. Which they also were, to be honest.
He pushed himself away from the doorframe, walking over to his table and watching as the female told him which one she wanted. Jonghyun hummed with crossed arms, raising his eyebrows as he showed an impressed expression. "I'd say, because you don't seem like a person backing out the last second, let's get to the point without further do."
@kim jonghyun. The young female bit down on her lower lip as she saw different sleeve tattoos, making her blood rush through her veins just at the thought of it, she loved tattoos , she simply loved them, it was a gothic art she adored . the moment she heard a somehow husky voice that fill up her ears, the female raised an eyebrow at his question, letting a light laugh escape past her lips as she nods her head '' clearly i did not come here to have a pizza, now, did i ? yes, i am here to get a tattoo, and i had a little bit of time to look around your creations, very impressive.''
the young female's tone was rather low and calm as she slowly stood up, making her way towards the young man, stopping right in front of him, letting a small smile cover her lips as she places the catalogue down on the counter as she puts her hand over a tattoo ' i want this one, exactly as it is, just i want the outer edges to be red, please '' she said that as she looks into the male's direction. it was a stomach tattoo coming off from underneath the s to her belly button .
@kim hyuna. It was a calm day today and Jonghyun started playing games on his phone; lazing into a chair with his feet leaning on the small table his ink and stuff was placed. Being a tattoo artist wasn't one of the busiest jobs, but sometimes that could change drastically. There had been days where the male found himself inking someone's body from the minute his shop opened until the closing hours.
The second Jonghyun heard footsteps, his ears perked up and he lowered his feet to the ground; waiting for a bit longer to make sure he hadn't been mistaking. But after making sure, the male pushed himself into a standing position and made his way over to his front door. He opened the curtains, made of a thin fabric - almost see through - and threw a welcoming smile to the female he spotted sitting in one of the couches. "Hello there. Interested in getting a tattoo?"
@kim jonghyun. since it has been a long while ever since she had her skin inked, she had decided that it would be a good time to get it now, due the fact that she is usually very busy with so many things and now she was ' off ' . With small steps she was pushing herself through the busy streets of the city once some retarded would bump into her, she would just groan pushing herself even harder through. One of her friends told her about a very good tattoo artist so she was very curious about the job he'll do with her.
Upon arriving at the right address the young female, let a small smile roll on her dry pinkish lips, as she brushed her wet muscle over the dry skin, making it smoother looking as she got herself to enter the place, it was just her liking, she threw herself down on the couch near the counter, waiting for someone to come out so she could get what she wanted, as she waited for the man to have some free time, she looks around seeing some of his tattoos, the she grabs a catalogue looking over it with a slight interest in her eyes, it was hard to wake up her interest in anything.
( sorry , it x u x ; i am really bad with starters.
