who merrick & @declanflanagan​ when january 1st  where the tattoo den

merrick had never been one to care about new years resolutions - she was perfectly content being who she was, even if not everyone around her was always thrilled with that. but new years day seemed like the perfect time to indulge herself in something new - and she’d been debating on a tattoo for months. though she hadn’t gotten one since the small heart on the inside of her index finger, she was still excited at the prospect. 

the biggest problem was, merrick still had no idea what to do. she’d thought of a thousand possibilities - something to signify her relationship with her sister, an alien face, a butterfly or bird - she knew where she wanted it, she knew where she’d go to get it, she just didn’t know what to get. 

the walls were covered in various artwork one could get permanently etched on her body and she walked along, gazing at them all and debating to herself - a quiet mutter as she picked apart every option - until she realized she wasn’t alone in the room anymore. 

“what do you suggest? is there a piece here you’re particularly fond of, or that you really want to put on someone?”

DECLAN FLANAGAN looks a lot like CASEY DEIDRICK. HE is a 30 year old TATTOO ARTIST who has resided in BACK BAY since SEPTEMBER, 2017. He's EXTROVERTED, COMPASSIONATE and RESILIENT but can also be STUBBORN, BLUNT and SHORT-TEMPERED.

HEADCANONS:

Declan was raised in London and sounds like it, but he is actually Irish. He still slips into an Irish accent in certain situations - when talking to his Irish mother, or when he’s drunk or angry enough not to notice.

Declan has a bad heart, but he treats it more of a joke because he doesn’t like talking about it. It’s a hereditary condition, giving him even more of a reason not to talk about it, he doesn’t want to worry his mother. His mental health worries her enough.

Declan lives with his two daughters, four dogs, and the mother of his second daughter, Cas in a riverview penthouse. Living in Boston was a compromise between him and Cas, Declan doesn’t particularly have any attachment to the city. Declan has moved nine times in his life, but he doesn’t think any of it. He doesn’t get attached to places, with modern technology he can get a hold of all the people he needs from anywhere in the world. Declan probably will move again.
