It's raining in Canterlot. Princess Celestia contemplates this.
A quick one-shot to work through some of my own grief.

Clip Cord and her friends are part of a growing industry in Equestria. Tattoos and piercings are still considered taboo by many ponies; but in the modern bustling heart of Applewood, the heroes of our story thrive. In Spectrum Tattoo and Piercing, five ponies learn lessons about friendship, magic, art, stabby things, donuts, and the lengths an apprentice will go to prove himself in a ruthless industry full of weirdos.

Author's Note: This is just something I wrote for fun, to blow off some steam and get a very pesky idea out of my head. For the moment, this chapter can stand as a fun stand alone, though I'm considering writing more. Please, for the love of Celestia, don't take this fic too seriously. :) Crappy doodle cover image to be replaced by something better when I have the time.
