Hey Saeri! It's me, Luz!

I was hoping to get back to you on that permanent tattoo. I have an anchor now, so whenever you have the time, please let me know, and we'll be ready!

[inkedspell]

I've got time in a couple hours, so who's your anchor? I'll be inking them, too.

Re: video

[imaglyphwitch]

Great!

Oh he knows. It's Varian.

[inkedspell]

Oh, that guy. Sure. We can get it done fast today. Still in Willful Machine. Look for the stationary carriage house. A house made out of a carriage.

Re: video

[imaglyphwitch]

Man that's so cool. Ok! I'll let him know!

[inkedspell]

Let me know when you're close by, I'll keep an eye out for ya. See you in a bit, Luz.

Hi. Do you have family discounts?

voice | un: inkmetal

[inkedspell]

Oh? [Curiosity piqued.] Depends on how many are in the family and how many unique designs I'm doing.

[spiritwalks]

We're two and a half men, so three total. We were actually interested in those tracker runes we talked about before.

action! let me know if you prefer this elsewhere

[Arriving early in the morning is no trouble for Bigby, largely because he doesn't afford much in the way of sleep anyway.

Still, he arrives as promised, giving a hesitant knock at the door.]

[inkedspell]

Ah... [Understanding and amusement.] I'm guessing you're going to be each other's anchors?

this is good!

[inkedspell]

[Ursula's in quite the experience you're first time there, with it being such a cozy looking house that's filled with the smells of blood and ink. One of the hosts opens the door and directs him through the foyer to the parlor where open chairs are.

Saeri has already been busy that morning, but she is slower in the morning. When she spots Bigby, she waves her left hand, which makes the metal prosthetic rather obvious from where her sleeves are pushed up around her biceps. She stands up and walks over to him, smiling, but her eyes are sharp, looking him over. Being taller than him does mean it's easier to get a look at that brand on his forehead.]

You showed up. Good to see it. Take a seat and let me get some observations.

[spiritwalks]

An anchor is the person you're connected to, right?

[inkedspell]

Yeah. Whoever you're planning to be able to activate the location sensory field so they can follow it and find you. And yes, you can have more than one anchor.

[spiritwalks]

So I can be anchored to Billie and Tuck, and they can both be anchored to me? And if one of us wants to be found, we just use the rune and the other two get pinged.

Is it possible to tug on one anchor, but not the other?

[inkedspell]

If you all give me a little blood I can make some individualized anchors so yeah.

[spiritwalks]

Hmm.

[Not any worse than willingly handing their own blood over to a secret organization, at least.]

Okay, yeah, I'll let them know. Shouldn't be a problem, though. Do you collect the blood onsite, or...?

[inkedspell]

I only need a few drops to mix into the ink I'm using for you. No need to collect a whole vial or anything, so we can do it when you get here.

[spiritwalks]

Oh, a few drops? That's not bad, then.

I guess I should ask, though— Do you have experience working with kids?

[inkedspell]

Uh...depends on what you mean by kids.

[Because no, no she has not.]

Never tried to ink a five-year old. If they can sit still enough to get through it, we can figure something out.

[spiritwalks]

He's a little older than five, so no worries there. This isn't his first tattoo, either. If it's for a good reason, I think he can handle sitting still.

[Probably.]

[inkedspell]

Then we'll be fine. Bring some treats as a reward and most kids will sit still for anything.

[spiritwalks]

Good idea. Big, flaky croissants are his favorite. I'll try picking some up beforehand.

[inkedspell]

Great. Would you prefer a morning or afternoon appointment? I'm usually done at Ursula's by two.
