A/N: I have no idea how to format on . I have an AU universe in my head where a bunch of the characters are tattooists and piercers. Enjoy!
The Tattoo Studio
Feliciano liked working in the tattoo studio. Sometimes scary people in leather with huge beards came in, but after he talked to them for a bit and Berwald appeared to take them to the tattooing room, he could get back to sweeping the floor and doodling pictures for the walls. The customers are generally nice though, and Feliciano loves helping people perfect designs and see them have it inked on to their body. He loves art, you see. He also loves his friends that work in the shop, and it's a combination of his favourite things.
Some days there aren't many people who wanted piercings or tattoos. This is okay for Feliciano; it means he can design more things and think over where he wants to get one of his designs tattooed soon. However, slow piercing days mean a very bored Tino, brandishing a needle, asking if he wants any more particular piercings. Usually Berwald steps in at this point on a day of slow customers, offering up a piece of his skin for the metal to be shoved through. Other days, Ludwig will distract him by telling him about Claire's Accessories latest ear piercing deal, causing the Finn to dissapear for an hour and rage at the shop.
The busy days seem to be the days that Gilbert likes to visit. Gilbert is Ludwig's older- and far less responsible- brother. Gilbert also possesses no talent for body modification either, and it's a unanimous decision between the other employees that he's never to get work there. Ever. Especially after the time he went to a different studio in a back alley and ended up with a portrait tattoo, then showed it off to every customer at his brother's studio. It's a miracle their reputation wasn't ruined in one swift blow. Not to mention the time the German decided it would be funny to put up pictures of swastikas with the other designs on the wall during a Saturday afternoon, when everybody was rushing around. Feliciano never thought a broom used to sweep the shop floor could be so leathal in the hands of an angry man.
At the end of the day... well, that's the Italian's favourite part. He countsthe money in the till and waits on the shop being locked up for the evening. After saying goodbye to the others, he will get a lift home in Ludwig's car. Some nights, becoming more common as time goes by, he will go home with the German. Movies, showers and cuddling were usual before sleep, although the next morning starts early as Ludwig goes for a run before work. Feliciano cooks breakfast for him returning, and after he showers the two of them return to his car and drive back to the studio.
More often than not, they find a hungover Gilbert sleeping on the doorstep. After watching Ludwig shout at his brother, it's time to repeat another day of work.
Yes, Feliciano really does love his job.
