(read premise!) Everyone at Stanford University knows two things about Sigma House. The parties are unforgettable. And if you walk down into the basement… You’ll find Choso Kamo. While the rest of the fraternity spends Friday nights surrounded by flashing lights, loud music, and overflowing crowds, Choso is downstairs doing something entirely different—turning stories into tattoos. As Stanford’s unofficial tattoo artist, his appointment book is always full, his waiting list stretches for weeks, and his work has become something of a campus legend. When Y/N finally secures an appointment for her very first tattoo, she expects an intimidating artist with a heavy hand and little patience. Instead, she finds someone surprisingly quiet. Someone who asks, “Why this tattoo?” before he ever asks where she wants it. Above them, the party never stops. Below them, time somehow slows. Between pencil sketches, shared conversations, cigarette breaks, and the steady hum of a tattoo machine, two strangers begin learning that the most permanent things aren’t always made of ink. Sometimes… They begin with an inked needle.
