Bryony was in the middle of her shift, this one revolving questioning people in the area. It wasn’t exactly the way she wanted to do this, but with the murders contining, the police force were running out of options. The blonde smiled faintly. “It’s fine, no harm, no foul.”
“Glad you’re not upset,” She chuckled a bit. The tattoo artist looked at the woman, turning her head to the side. “Hey, you were at the ball, no?” She asked with a small smile.
“the best ones aren’t they?” he said “especially when they personally ask for you,” he chuckled. “i know, i want more too, just what to get is the question. you thinking about one?” he asked curious. “I could do it,” he said. “i’m in a tattooing mood, which is good, being an artist.”
“Oh my god yes,” She mused happily. “Or when they talk to their friends about you and you get some more people.” She grinned. “I was thinking of getting a knife on my finger and a snake around my ankle then going down to my foot.” She had all these ideas that she wanted on her body, she just loved them. “What about you?” She asked. “Really? Of course, let’s do it. Either one, I’m down always for a tattoo.”
“Like, I could defend the place if I wanted to. It has some good people, and great places within the town. But the life here doesn’t make that job easy.”
Letting out a small laugh, she nodded her head. “I could do the same thing but honestly, you’re right. Living here doesn't’t make it easy. It would be easy months ago when life wasn’t such a shit show.”
“I only have a few so I don’t have much opinion on shading yet. I feel like shading would be less painful, though, because its not as like… Focused? I don’t know if that’s the right word,” Liv mused, “How often do people not eat or anything beforehand and then pass out?” The blonde sat as well, shaking her head. “People are stupid,” she sighed, “It’s a sad fact. Like, super sad. The human race is doomed.”
“I’ll give you one on the house and then we’ll talk,” Lilith chuckled out a bit with a soft smile. “I have some and honestly shading in doesn’t bother me but sometimes the lining can bug which is weird. Everybody is different.” She shrugged her shoulders a bit. “You would be surprised at how many people faint or almost do. Like do your research people!” She laughed before ordering herself a jack and coke. “Honestly, but what do you want babe?”
“Shit, that sounds like an intense piece. And it’ll be longer if he has shit pain tolerance, right?” Olivia mused, nodding, “People are honestly so stupid. Like, when you need to remind people not to swim in a fucking lake after getting a tattoo because it’s an open wound and yet they still go and do it, you need to question their intelligence.”
“It is. It’s a lot of shading after I do all the lining. People say the shading is a lot more worst but I don’t feel it.” She shrugged at the thought. “I just hope this dude eats before he comes in.” The artist chuckled out sitting at the bar. Looking at Olivia, she nodded with a small snort. “I just do not understand how things go in one ear and out the other. It’s insane how many people come back like a day later and ask me about aftercare.”
being born into a life of addiction, lilith’s life has never been easy. her mother couldn't put the needle down, she craved drugs more than being home. her mother left once lilith turned three and never came back. the three year old was left with her father, he drank to push back the pain of his wife leaving him alone with a child he never wanted from the start.
as a teen, she heard rumors that her mother sobered up and started a new life far away from riverdale.
with that being said, she never had the picture perfect family that she wanted when she was younger. her father would actually verbally and physically abuse the young one. it was far from perfect.
to escape the hell that was her life the girl drew and drew. it was her way of creating the picture perfect life she wanted. she constantly had her nose in her notebook that she stole. she drew things she saw on the streets, in her room, the flowers, shops and something copied other people’s tattoos.
in school she befriended a male serpent, she heard of what a tight family they were. she craved that. she wanted it. lilith checked it out, it wasn’t perfect but she was offered peace away from her father. there she was sixteen doing the serpent dance and got the tattoo on her arm, proud to be one of them. when her father found out about her joining a gang, she was kicked out with nothing.
luckily she was given a home at a friend’s home where she stood until school was over and she had a proper job.
now the woman works at the tattoo parlor, she is tatted up a bit, she lives alone in a trailer. the artist is known to being seen with a cigarette or a blunt in her mouth or if she isn’t working, she is at the whyte wyrm with a drink in her hand.
her mood changes with whoever she is with. with her friends, she can be fun, nice, understanding, loyal but if she comes in contact with someone out of her group, she is cold and distant. rarely speaking, letting her face tell you that she doesn’t care.
she is very very loyal to the serpents, they are her real family. with everything going on in riverdale, she is ready to fight for them no matter what. she never takes off her a jacket. “a serpent never sheds it’s skin”
lilith doesn’t plan on leaving the southside or the serpents, it’s her family, her real family, and her life. she couldn’t ask for anything else.
please like or message me if you want to plot with my first bby! i updated her connections list and if anyone needs a wanted female connection, please let me know! i would love to help!
silas leaned back against the counter as another customer walked out. “another satisfied customer,” he chuckled. “are you looking to get a new one, i mean, i have so many now. working in a tattoo parlor does that to you,” he said with a chuckle. @fxcklilith
Chuckling from her chair, she spun the chair to come face to face with Silas. “It’s nice to see how faithful costumers we have.” Nodding towards the person walked out of the shop. Her eyes gazed down at her arms, “I could definitely go for some more. I feel like we all need to be tatted up to work here.”
“Do you ever wonder what people outside of Riverdale think about what’s going on here?” Harrison mused. “Like, people who have never been here, don’t know the town or the people. I wonder what this all looks like to them.”
“Funny you say that,” Lilith said. “I was actually thinking about that the other day. I bet they’re never going to visit here now after everything that has gone down.”
“That’s awesome! Like, full chest? That’ll take a good few hours, huh?” Liv mused as they entered the Whyte Wyrm, “Oooh, like ones done by others that you need to fix? Shit, I can’t imagine the stress of fucking up someone’s tattoo, but at least they have you there to fix them, and then if they ever want more they’ll go to you instead of the other people.”
“Yup,” She said popping the p. “But we most likely won’t get it fully done in one day and he’ll have to come back the next day so we can fully finish it.” She smiled a bit, walking into the serpent hang out. “Rarely other people’s but sometimes people do not listen to what I say about aftercare and they start picking at it and it messes up the tattoo.”
“The town is honestly going to shit, like what the fuck,” Olivia agreed, nodding, “Like, who tries to kill a preschool teacher. Like, if that attack was targeted, that’s sick. Oooh, what’s bringing in the cash tomorrow? Big tattoo piece planned?”
“You can say that shit again,” Lilith said shaking her head, allowing her lose curls bounce and hit her cheeks. “I don’t know, Olivia. I don’t know.” She shrugged her shoulders then smiled. “Yes. A man is getting this big chest piece done and plus I gotta touch up a few of our own tattoos. I tell you, it’s always the new ones fucking them up.”
“The bar? Let me get you a drink then..” They insisted, walking with her. “I’m not too sure right now.. I’d love some water colour stuff.. that looks beautiful.”
Nodding her head, the smile never left her lips. “Those are very beautiful but I’ve read that they fade quickly but you know I always got you on a touch up.”
“I know, this face lets you get away with a lot,” she teased with a laugh. “Over-thinking about what?” Olivia pushed a bit further, before nodding, “Yes please, that sounds amazing. This week could definitely use some drinks.”
Lilith laughed out a bit as she wrapped her arm around Olivia. “Eh, just with everything going on but a little bit of weed and drink will make me think of happy things like the money I am going to make tomorrow.” She giggled out, walking towards the Wyrm.
