Ashes Left Behind by nia_kantorka. Used with permission.
This tattoo is a good idea. He's sure. It will be a big one but there is enough skin on his back to spare. Draco can see it in his mind; the colours, the shape and its meaning. It should start just above his bum where the dimples of his ass ascend into the muscles of his back. Black and grey ashes should cover the bottom of his spine.
On top of the ashes at the slimmest part of his back he imagines an egg. Broken, off-white, pale eggshells would surround a hatching fledgling. Only its shoulders, neck and a little head would be visible with most of its body hidden behind the eggshells. Placed slightly left of his spine the bird would look ugly, small and exhausted with clotted grey feathers. But one could see a glimpse of a golden beak and one barely open emerald eye.
On his upper back he wants the fully grown bird, displayed in glowing yellow and red feathers. Its tail should start on his left side near his ribs; the body should cross his vertebrae in an arch, the left wing should spread over his shoulder blade onto his arm and the right wing should reach his armpit at its tip. Like an embrace, Draco thinks. The head with the golden beak and the shining green eyes should reach up to the right side of his neck. Up to the spot where Harry likes to bury his nose, inhale and nuzzle his neck.
