ZACKARY BAKER x MADELINE PASCAL
[/SUP][/size][/blockquote][/blockquote]
MADELINE PASCAL IS ONE OF THOSE STARVING ARTISTS TYPES, RIGHT OUT OF PARIS, FRANCE.
ZACHARY BAKER IS A FUN-LOVING, THRILL-SEEKING TATTOO ARTIST FROM ONE OF THE MUSIC CAPITOLS OF THE U.S.
AND YET, HE SEEMS TO HAVE SOMETHING OF A SOFTSIDE.
JUST LIKE SHE SEEMS TO HAVE SOMETHING OF A DARK SIDE.
PASCAL HAD SEVERAL BRUSHES WITH DEATH A CHILD, RUNNING AROUND WITH HER PARENTS, AWAY FROM THE OVERBEARING PARISIAN DIVISION. AND YET SHE SURVIVED, BOTH PARENTS DIED. LATELY SHE’S BEEN FEELING AS THOUGH SHE TOO SHOULD HAVE DIED.
PASCAL HAS BEEN COMING TO BAKER FOR YEARS FOR HER TATTOOS. THAT’S RIGHT THE LITTLE GIRL GETS TATTOOS. AND NOT JUST ANY TATTOOS, TATTOOS FOR EACH PIECE OF WORK SHE WRITES, DEPICITING THE STORY. AT FIRST BAKER THOUGHT IT WAS A COOL IDEA, THOUGH SHE TENDED TO GET THEM IN PLACES NOT MANY PEOPLE WOULD SEE UNLESS SHE WORE A BIKINI, WHICH—BECAUSE OF HER PALE SKIN—HE FIGURED SHE DIDN’T DO. BUT AFTER A WHILE THE TATTOOS BECAME PROGRESSIVELY MORE DEPRESSING, MORE DEATHS, MORE GRUESOME ENDINGS, TRAGEDIES, HORRORS. THE CHARACTERS BECAME MORE SUICIDAL AND WERE QUICK TO END IT ALL—SHE ALWAYS GAVE HIM A QUICK BACKGROUND OF EACH STORY. BOTTOM LINE: HE WORRIED FOR HER.
BUT IT WASN’T UNTIL SHE CAME IN ONE DAY WITH ASKING FOR YET ANOTHER TRAGIC TATTOO THAT HE SAW THE SCARS. SEVERAL OF THEM, CUT MARKS, ON HER THIGHS. SHE TRIED TO COVER THEM UP QUICKLY BUT NOT BEFORE HE GOT A GOOD LOOK. AND WHAT WAS EVEN MORE TERRIFYING WAS, THE STORY IN THE DRAWING SHE BROUGHT HIM LOOKED A LOT LIKE HERSELF. AS HE GOT TO WORK ON THE NEWEST TATTOO HE ALSO CAME TO ANOTHER REALIZATION…
HE’D GROWN SO ACCUSTOMED TO HER COMING IN…HE’D GROWN SO USED TO THE DIFFERENT CURVES OF HER BODY…HE FOUND HIMSELF, STRANGLY, IN LOVE WITH HER.
BUT…WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN THE PERSON YOU LOVE MIGHT BE SUICIDAL?
