Orphaned at the age of 5, Aria Drakos is taken in by her parent's friends Charlie and Renee Swan. Shortly after, Renee leaves with their 4-year-old daughter Bella, leaving you with Charlie. But that is fine with you, since you not really 5 years old...
The next morning I head out early to Seattle, excited to finally be getting my last tattoo done. Kat greets me as usual, and she shows me the outline. I had her make the tattoo based on an exact replica drawing of my old wand, and added a subtle Deathly Hallows symbol along with some colorful swirling magic to it.

"All right, here's the vine wrapped wand, with a triangle rune-like symbol above it, and we're going to make the swirling magic varying shades of blue, which will glow in the dark. Where is this going again?" She asks me for confirmation.
"My inner right forearm, wand tip pointing to my wrist please." I confirmed with her.
Once she had the stencil on me, it was good to go. She worked diligently, and got it done fairly quickly, only a few hours. I kept the wand itself in a detailed greyscale style, that way the magic colors popped more. I also kept the Hallows symbol more abstract rather than obvious, just as a stylistic preference.
"Alright, all done. What do you think?" She asks me once she finishes cleaning it up and showing me.
"It's wonderful, as always. Thank you so much. This is my last one, and I'm beyond happy with all of mine." I tell her gratefully.
"This is like a Harry Potter wand right? Fan of the books?" She asks me curiously.
"Yeah, I guess you could say that." I smile fondly. "I'm a fan of magic, for sure. Besides, we could all use a little magic after the tragedies that happened here recently." I say, referencing the disappearances and murders.
"That's for sure. One of the missing people was a client of mine. You lose anyone?" She asks solemnly.
"Almost. But I think they're ok now. I'm just glad everything calmed down now." I tell her honestly. I heard from Yukio once, she and Riley made it to Denali ok. The vegetarian vampires agreed to teach them basic survival and rules, trying to undo what Victoria brainwashed into them.
I paid Kat, giving her another large tip and complimenting her work again. With my arm wrapped tight, I go do a bit of shopping while I'm in the city since I need to get Eddy and Bella a wedding gift. Once I've got something for them, I get on my bike and head home, where Ivar is waiting to greet me.
"Welcome home, fridr. How was your appointment?" He asks me while sweetly kissing me.
"Great! This one was faster than the last one, so I had time to shop. But here!" I shove my arm in his face, still wrapped in the protective plastic but too excited to wait. "I got my last tattoo done! Hang on, let me clean it then I'll properly show you." I rush up to the bathroom and clean it up, then change into pajamas and crawl into bed where he joins me, chuckling at my child-like enthusiasm.
"I see this one is a little more visible than the others. A wand? And some type of rune?" He observes, taking my arm in his hands and appreciating the new tattoo.
