••• THE 101.
Her first name is Florence but she hasn’t been called that since High School where she switched to using her middle name, Orla. It’s quirkier, and she thinks it stops her sound like an old woman — don’t call her Florence unless you want to be met with a sharp tongue.
One of five children to parents Christopher & Veronica. Orla has an older sister (Vienna Iris Rhodes, 31) and younger identical triplet brothers (Hudson Zeke Rhodes, 24 / Harlem Zayn Rhodes, 24 & Houston Zion Rhodes, 24). Her sister is kicking around Charming, all three brothers moved away for college and she doubts they’ll ever properly return. However, they visit for holidays but Orla doesn’t see them that often.
Graduated HS with mediocre grades ( mainly due to not applying herself, and falling into a crowd of ‘cool kids’ that snuck out partying and fucking, rather than studying) but she was always creative, colouring inside the lines before any of her classmates and producing the most fridge-worthy drawings.
Upon graduation she worked briefly as a waitress before being offered an apprenticeship at a tattoo studio. Although this wasn’t the type of art she’d ever imagined herself doing she did find that she was pretty great at it, and the idea of people wanting her art on their body forever only pushed an overactive ego further. She’d been there for what felt forever before they actually let her loose with anyone, and although her hands threatened to make every mistake possible with how much they wanted to shake she made it though, creating something beautiful on a very trusting young male.
That was the beginning and she never looked back. Orla now owns her own tattoo studio in the form of Scorpion Studios where she employs a couple of staff (something even she didn’t think she’d end up doing - she’s never been one to play nice, but she is incredibly loyal and she’s going to defend her family to the end of time). She bought the place a couple of years ago from the previous retiring owner. Her father (a builder by trade) helped her modernise the building a little, it’s still got the vibe it had from its original running days, but the place runs smoother with updated appliances and those leaky taps fixed. The studio tends to be dimly lit, and she loves dark candles burning around the place, loud music playing from the corner. Theres also an often changing mural on the back wall because she tires easy of the same thing, so you can often smell the linger of fresh paint at least for a few days every month.
Her work life is organised, Orla works Tuesday - Saturday and does not offer walk-ins, she works in blocks of either three hours (half days) or six hours (full days). All of her work is custom drawn (& portraits) and she takes great pride in her every piece, if she isn’t feeling it, she wont do it (but she will pass you down to one of the other artists in the studio). She holds a booking day once every 3 months where she spends two days booking people into her diary via the queue outside (thanks to it being heavy advertised on her social media) and emails (something she doesn’t let her receptionists do for her, she’s very hands on in the process because it works for her, but she does not hold her artists to have the same standard). Day 1 is for continuing work only, day 2 is for new pieces / customers. Deposits are required to secure your slot, no exceptions. (If friends want something small, she will make the time for them on one of her days off, if they want big pieces, they follow the same booking system as everyone else.)
She takes extra income though her Only Fans page, a sizeable amount of followers lining her back pocked monthly (will never go nude, nude, but leaves very little to the imagination).
Orla herself isn’t covered in tattoos, but she has the odd ones in various spots of her body (under-boob, rib, hip, thigh, inner elbow), places she’d tell you not many have seen, but that would be a lie. She has a tendency to flaunt herself, get drunk, wake up with a stranger. Her Devils Disciples insignia is small, and on her hip, just above a tattoo that traces around her hip and down her thigh.
Orla is blunt, she holds no prisoners, she’s happy with her select friendship circle and if you don’t fit into that, chances are she’s not going to be the nicest person you’ve come across. One thing is for sure though; she will tell you how it is.
••• FAST FACTS.
(Contains mentions of drug use tw, abortion tw.)
She despises the idea of shady business going on through her business and holds all of her artists accountable for not bringing drama to her door.
She’s been known to throw mini-gatherings at her house, a cute industrial styled place, usually on the weekend to let of steam from the week before.
A literal tequila connoisseur, its her absolute go-to.
Joined the Devils Disciples because her grandfather was a member, then her father, was brought up around it being a thing, and she also kinda just thinks its badass.
Coco? Is that you? The ultimate party favour. Orla has been known to have a little bit of a coke habit when the partying comes around.
A cheat? Not massively, she’s been cheated on herself and know it sucks, but she did have that one girlfriend she cheated on with the boy she couldn’t quite kick that ended up in a pro-choice decision, though her private life is private, so she’s not for sharing the gritty details.
Doesn’t really take dating all that seriously, casual is where she handles herself best.
Mean? Not necessary, but absolutely truthful.
