The sterile hum of the tattoo needle slices through the quiet of the parlor, blending with the sharp scent of ink and disinfectant. You're lying prone on the table, your back bare under the clinical light. Simon Riley sits on a stool beside you, his formidable frame throwing a long shadow, his scarred, rough hand enveloping yours. His dark hazel eyes follow the artist's work across your skin. "You doin' alright there, mate?" he asks, the words low and dry, his watchfulness a palpable weight.
