Yes

On your way.

Good girl. Come home to Daddy and he will make it all better.

Ok I’m sorry. Do what you need to do.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I want if I ever commit to a full tattoo project, and I think it’s finally starting to come together. The more I think about it, the less I want a bunch of individual tattoos and the more I want one connected piece of art that tells a story across my body.

The project would start on my left pectoral with the head of a massive direwolf that naturally transitions into a full sleeve. I don’t want the wolf to look aggressive or angry. I want it to feel calm, confident, and ancient. More like a guardian than a predator. Something powerful enough that it doesn’t need to prove it.

The sleeve would revolve around a woman inspired by Lady Justice. She’d be blindfolded, not because she’s helpless, but because she represents conviction, trust, discipline, and devotion. Instead of traditional robes or armor, she’d wear a simple leather collar with a chain disappearing naturally into the composition. It wouldn’t be the focus. It would just be one part of the story.

Watching over the scene would be a raven, representing wisdom, intelligence, mystery, and observation. Woven throughout the artwork would be subtle rope and knotwork inspired by shibari, hidden naturally within the design so they look like part of the artwork instead of obvious symbols. I also like the idea of weathered chains or old iron hardware appearing here and there, but only where they serve the composition rather than feeling like random objects.

Eventually everything would continue into a full back piece. I’m imagining an ancient old-growth forest with towering pines, dense fog, moonlight filtering through the trees, roots twisting over massive stones, and forgotten ruins that nature has slowly reclaimed. I want it to feel timeless, almost sacred, like a place that has existed forever.

Originally I thought about another direwolf on the back, but I think I’ve changed my mind. I love the idea of a massive mature bull elk standing silently in a clearing with enormous antlers while the direwolf is almost hidden among the trees, quietly watching over the forest. The wolf represents protection, strength, loyalty, and leadership. The elk represents nobility, patience, resilience, and quiet confidence. Neither one is dominating the other. They simply exist together in the same ancient world.

The more I think about it, the more I want every major piece to represent an archetype instead of just looking cool.

The direwolf is the guardian.

The woman is conviction, discipline, trust, and devotion.

The raven is wisdom and observation.

The elk is nobility, patience, and calm power.

The forest is permanence, mystery, growth, and the unknown.

The ruins represent legacy and endurance.

The rope, chain, and knotwork become symbols of commitment, responsibility, connection, and restraint instead of simply objects.

What I love most is the idea that someone could see it and simply think it’s a beautiful piece of art. Then, the longer they looked, the more they’d discover. A hidden knot. A chain disappearing into shadow. The raven tucked into the trees. The wolf you didn’t notice at first. Every time you looked, you’d find another layer.

I don’t want it to feel like fantasy just for the sake of fantasy, and I don’t want it to feel overtly symbolic either. I want it to feel like dark mythology. Like an ancient story carved into skin where every element has a purpose, even if only I know the entire story.

I don’t want a sleeve, a chest piece, and a back piece.

I want an entire world that happens to be painted across my body.

I see you are almost home. Is everything ok?

These are the tattoo artists I’m planning to study the most. I think they’re some of the best in the world for the style I’m going for.

If you have some time, I’d love for each of you to scroll through their work and tell me which artist speaks to you the most and why. Don’t focus on the individual tattoos. Pay attention to the mood, composition, lighting, storytelling, and how each artist makes you feel. I’m much more interested in creating one cohesive work of art than collecting individual tattoos, so I’d love to hear what stands out to you.

I see you are almost home. Is everything ok?

I just got tipped off on this one from sub.

That’s sucks.

I’m glad you are safe. Are you headed to bed?

Goodnight get some rest!

😘

For tomorrow

Good morning how are you doing?

I’m good. You should sleep then.

Yay.

Still sore?

Happy girl?

Ok baby. Eat first.

Good girl.

Of course

Whenever you want.

Until when?

Careful

This Thursday and Friday, I might have someone coming over, but you are still welcome to come. I might have my daughters Friday and Sat

why not today through wednesday?

I understand. Let me know.

Does it upset yuou I have som eone coming over?

I’m not busy.

But it sounds like you are upset.

I’m literally doing nothing but 3 hour long PT sessions until Friday night and I have someone potentially coming over 1 night this week.

They might have cut off your service or it’s an outage.

You didn’t respond to any of these.

Why?

This sounds rude.

I told you I have the entire week available except for 1 night and that night might not even happen. What you answered does not address any of my comments in those three messages

You can come over tomorrow through Thursday. It’s ok if you are upset I just need to know.

What does company Thursday have to do with Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday.

You see me asking a very specific question. I’m trying to understand why. You keep telling me what you’ve said and what your boundaries are. I’m not asking about that. I’m asking why. What’s the motivation so I can understand how you think

So you can’t see me Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday because you’re busy?

OK you aren’t answering my question.

But you weren’t busy until I told you someone else might be coming over.

We had an issue before where you felt one way and told me something different and weren’t vulnerable and honest with me and that almost ended things with us and I told you that I needed honesty from you and I need you to not hide things from me. Do you remember that?

I need you to be honest with me right now and tell me what’s going on. I’ve given you numerous chances.

No I didnt. And you are being defensive and reactive.

Again you aren’t even giving me time to write a response.

😉
