Chapter Forty One: I Solemnly Swear I Am Up To No Good

The Marauders were back at school, Dorcas was showing them all the presents her parents got her.

"It's a tattoo gun, so I can now give you all matching tats." she said, holding it up.

"That's so cool!" Sirius said, looking at it.

"I didn't know you could draw Cas." Mary said.

Dorcas tilted her head and scratched her neck. "No... but I can write." she laughed.

"Ah, I wanted a big lion piece on my chest." James said, disappointed.

"I could write 'big lion piece' onto your chest." she suggested.

He shook his head, "It's not the same."

"I could draw a little stickman?"

"Have you ever given anyone a tattoo?" Remus asked, raising his eyebrow.

"No... but I have given myself a stick and poke." Dorcas said, showing them a small sun on her ankle.

"I'm going to sit this one out." Mary said, sitting back on the sofa.

"Come on Mare, don't make me be the only girl getting one." Opal said.

"I'm good, plus I think my mum would murder me if I came home with a tattoo."

"Fine." Opal rolled her eyes. "Who's going first?"

She quickly touched her nose, the boys followed her motion but Peter was a little too slow.

"No! I don't want to go first!"

"Too bad Pete, you were too slow." James said, patting his shoulder.

"It's not going to hurt, I promise." Dorcas said, getting the ink out.

"You're going to stick me with a needle."

"But I'm going to be gentle."

"I feel like you're lying."

Dorcas shrugged.

"So what are you getting?"

He thought for a moment then looked towards the boys and Opal. "What about 'Marauder'?"

They grinned at him nodding. "Wormtail, that is amazing."

"Come then, lab rat." Dorcas said, patting the chair next to her.

"Lab rat?"

"Yeah, you're the first person I've ever tattooed. This is a very special moment."

Peter rolled his eyes and sat down on the chair, Dorcas drew out the stencil and started tattooing him.

"Okay all done, see that didn't hurt."

Peter nodded, looking at the words. "Yeah, okay you were right."

Dorcas smiled.

"Alright, who's up next?"

"These look so cool, Cas!" James said, looking into the mirror he had his placed on his collarbone. Dorcas had tattooed all of the Marauders, Opal had hers on her forearm, she smiled at Sirius who was admiring his own.

"Now all we have to do is hide them from our parents." Opal said.

"Well that's easy for me." Sirius remarked.

"Oh no Pads, my parents will kill you if they find out you have a tattoo." James laughed. "Thanks for doing it though, Cas."

"You are very welcome." Dorcas said, cleaning up the ink.
