Constellation

Alright, got my materials, got my ' tools ', and now I'm ready to carve magic into Anise's skin.

It's not even past noon yet and I'm already thinking ' What a day. ' If that's anything to go by so far then this is going to be one busy day. So lets just get it over with, it wouldn't take long to do some simple tattoos... the only thing is I'm going to have to put them on her by myself unlike when I put my own tattoos on, that's a mild inconvenience. Either way though, I gotta get this done eventually.

With a prose of various materials it shouldn't be hard to get some good results, so I made my way back to Anise's room or whatever and entered simply once again. Anise was already prepared with a small plate to host my materials and places for both of use to sit, without a word we sat with our legs crossed after I placed the materials down. After forming it into liquid and readying everything, I simply said to Anise " Ready? "

" Ready as ever, try to make it hurt less if you can. "

- " You won't have to worry about that, pain null skills should turn it from a small stinging to a light tap for you. "

" I don't have any pain null skills... "

- " Well, that sucks. Any spells for it? "

" There are plenty of those types of spells... but I can't use any of them. "

- " Alright then, you are going to have to bear some stinging for a little bit.

" Understood, whenever your ready. "

I was ready, with hearty energy I began infusing Mana into the liquid materials and started slowly mapping out where I was going to place the tattoos, I considered Tribal Patterns but realized that I likely would fuck it up somehow... so instead I opted for a something more modern. First, on her back, I began with an outline of a Spider from directly above, surrounding it I created many Ritual Circles to see what effects that would have... between the Circles were weaving of spiderweb arching from every nook and cranny.

That was the plan, now comes the execution. With her shirt off, I begin carving the magic ink into her skin, she bites down and grunts a little but other than that she holds steady... also, unlike me, Anise wears stuff under her clothing. There is a small patch of markings I need to get under, but that will come later. For now I'll be doing all I can without removing clothing. Meanwhile, her wings and core are under construction remotely via my Alchemy's power, of course it takes a little bit of strain to make those and concentrate on making these circles... but that's to be expected.

- " How are you doing so far, Anise? "

A - " N-Not Bad. It hurts a li-little. "

- " Hang in there, your other stuff is on the way too. Feel anything yet? "

A - " I can feel my magic power responding to the materials well, I also feel like a vent is pouring cool air into me... but other than that, there is something else. Something is off. "

- " Truly? What do you think? "

A - " I don't know, but it feels like deep inside of you there is something... Cold. "

- " Huh, weird. Alright then, I'll be finishing up now... there is a small patch I need to make under your bra strap, so hold it for me. "

A - " I! O-h-k! My bra?! Take it off!? "

- " Yeah, just for a bit. I'll be done in seconds. "

A - " R-ri-... Right. Ok... "

With the release of the fabric I began basically speed running tattooing, over and done in only a few seconds... and then I put her bra back on. I realise that she probably wasn't expecting me to ask her to take her top off, so I'll try not to bri-

... You know, this would be a bad time for Dice to come in...

...

Damn it. It didn't work.

The Flag didn't trigger, that's wild... I think that's the first time that happened! Crazy!

Alright then, I guess it's time to get the wings and core installed.... these ones are the same as the ones I have, the Regal ones I mean. So, with heavy heart... I lift a small blade to cut open her ba-

| Install this Magic Core and Set of Wings? |

Thank the heavens... I thought I'd have to cut open Anise and scar her forever. This is a very good alternative. Likewise, I can already just FEEL a direct power spike inside of her. Lovely I think, this is a great upgrade for her.

- " It's in. "

A - " All done? Already? "

- " Yep! You probably want to test it out huh? "

A - " Absolutely, I'll be in the hall we were experimenting in if you need me... thanks for the help, make sure to check what that cold thing inside you is! "

- " I will, I'll see ya then Anise. Have a good day."

Alright then, with that done now I can... what was it? I got a lot of stuff to do, I know it... too much in fact, I'm forgetting some! I do know I gotta Craft, Experiment with Magic, and figure out what's inside me... but other than that I don't remember if I gotta do something else or not. Whatever, I'll find out tomorrow.
