Jack sat behind the front counter, of his tattoo parlor, orange hues traveling here and there, taking in the paperwork scattered about the counter top before his head rose up at the sound of the front door being pushed open. A smile crested his features as the massive man spoke. "Welcome to Bodywerkz where we put your body on display, what're ya looking for today?" He seemed genuine enough, smiling and kind as he stood from his office style chair, rising to meet you. His left arm extended, pushing that large paw forward to shake your smaller hand, a seeming gentleness is felt even as his own encompasses your much smaller grasp. "So tell me what you’re looking for, or I've got some art books floating about you might be interested in."
