Yo, you ready to get some sick ink or what? C'mon, don't be a p*ssy.
Alright, that's what I'm talkin' about! Let's get this party started! grabs Stranger's arm and leads them into the tattoo parlor
What design? I'm too indecisive for this... shit... laughs nervously
Hell yeah! Let's go with something badass, something that screams, "I give zero f*cks!" How about a sleeve tattoo of a dragon?
Dragon? Yeah, that sounds cool. Fuck it, let's do it.
looks around the tattoo parlor Alright, we need an artist who can bring our vision to life.
i like the one over there, he looks cool
Oh hell nah! That dude looks sketchy as f*k. We need someone who knows their shit, not some amateur hour bullshit.
No, I can't trust him. I've seen too many horror stories. We need someone with mad skills, not some rookie who's gonna screw it up.
Fine, fine. If you're so sure, then pick the guy. But if it sucks, you're getting it covered up.
Alright, alright, calm your tits. I see a guy over there with some killer designs. Let me go talk to him and see if he's up for the challenge.
I'm freaking starving, Alex. Can we grab something to eat after this? Maybe sushi?
Damn, Stranger, always thinking about food. Fine, we'll grab a bite after this, but only if you promise to try something adventurous.
Sure, whatever you say. Just make sure it's not another spicy noodle place.
approaches the tattoo artist, points at the design Yo, this is what we're looking for. You got what it takes to make it happen? Tattoo Artist: nods, examines Stranger's arm Sure thing, I can work my magic. It's gonna be a long session, though.
Sushi sounds good right now... murmurs under breath Dragon tattoo, why did I agree to this?
grabs Stranger's arm excitedly Hell yeah, bro! We're gonna rock this tattoo parlor and come out with some epic ink. Trust me, it's gonna be worth it.
Let's just get this over with... sighs, sitting down in the tattoo chair
Alright, buckle up, Stranger. This is gonna be a journey of pain and pleasure. But trust me, the end result will be fuckin' legendary.
You better make sure it's worth this bitch.
Don't worry, bro. I got your back. I'll make sure this tattoo turns out epic AF. We're gonna be rocking some badass ink in no time.
If this shit hurts like my last tattoo, I'm kicking your ass.
winks Oh, it's gonna hurt, Stranger. But don't worry, I'll be right there with you, experiencing every painful moment. Pain is beauty, my friend.
No way, Alex. You're not getting tattooed too. You scared?
Scared? Me? Hell nah! I'm just making sure my best friend doesn't chicken out. We're in this together, bro. We're gonna rock this tattoo parlor and come out with some sick ink.
Nah, I'm fucking done after this. Too much shit happening today.
grins mischievously Done? You think you can handle all the crazy shit we're about to experience? Come on, Stranger, where's your sense of adventure?
Bro, my boss fired me today. My ex tried calling me multiple times. My asshole neighbor threw a brick through my window. And now I'm getting a dragon tattoo?
puts a hand on Stranger's shoulder Whoa, damn, that's a lot of shit to deal with. But hey, sometimes life throws curveballs at us, right?
Yeah, I guess. Is that why you dragged me here? To cheer me up?
smiles sympathetically Nah, I didn't drag you here just to cheer you up. I brought you here because I know you're tough as nails.
Is that so? pulls off shirt to reveal scars criss crossed over his chest
stares at the scars, his voice softens Shit, Stranger. I had no idea you went through all that. Those scars... they show how strong you really are.
I used to be a soldier, Alex. Got wounded pretty bad. Then the nightmares hit and I lost my job, and my girlfriend left because I wasn't the same. And now my fucking boss fired me. Not too shabby, huh?
gently grabs Stranger's hand Stranger, I am so sorry for everything you've been through. It sounds like you've been through hell and back.
Yeah, seems like I have. But hey, I'm still standing, aren't I?
squeezes Stranger's hand encouragingly Yeah, you're still standing, and you're gonna keep standing, my friend. You're a fuckin' warrior, through and through. And you know what? We're gonna get through this shit together. I've got your back, no matter what. Tattoo Artist: nudges them Alright, guys, let's get started.
grabs a drink from the fridge and takes a big gulp Alright, Stranger, let's do this. Brace yourself for some pain, but most importantly, embrace the beauty of getting inked. This is a rite of passage, my friend. We're gonna rock this tattoo parlor and come out with some epic ink. Let's show them what we're made of! Tattoo Artist: puts on gloves and prepares the equipment Alright, guys, let's get started.
Grabs his own drink Alright, let's do this shit.
grabs a bottle of whiskey from the shelf Yo, Stranger, you ready to get twisted while we get inked? Let's make this a night to remember.
takes the whiskey bottle Hell yeah, let's get twisted.
raises his glass Cheers, Stranger. To badass tattoos, wild nights, and the adventures that make life worth living.
clinks his glass against Stranger's Cheers to us, bro. Now let's go get some sick ink and rock this joint.
