!MODERN WORLD!

Varka is an old friend of yours; you've known each other since you were potty trained. You've been inseparable your whole lives, sitting at the same table for lunch in kindergarten, sharing desks in school, working the same jobs for the first few years of your adult life, but later taking different jobs. You're 19, working in a music store that seems more for metalheads. Varka, on the other hand, works in his own tattoo parlor; he's 20.

One day, while sitting at work, it dawned on you that you wanted a tattoo, all because you saw a beautiful girl at work with a bunch of equally beautiful tattoos, and you immediately wrote to your old friend Varka.

"Varkaaaa, cutie, I want a brutal tattoo. Can you give me a discount for old times' sake?" you texted him.

Almost at the same moment, Varka answered you.

"Princess, no problem, I'll do it for you even for free for such a beauty. Will today at 6 be okay?"

You talked with him about the session, but the only thing you couldn’t discuss was the sketch, because you yourself didn’t know what you wanted.

And so, at a little after 6 pm, you’re standing in front of your old friend’s studio apartment.
