"Death Wish"

This young man wanted "death wish" (or "death" and "desire") to be tattooed on the insides of his wrists. 死 (death) is missing one dot, and 欲 (desire) has been completely butchered.

"Fraud Blessing"

I am not sure if this person wanted 诈 (fraud) or 祚 （blessing) on his arm.

诈 is the simplified version of 詐.

The lower partial in 爱 (simplified 愛) should be 友, not 反.

When written correctly, 想 means "to think" or "speculate".

"Sisters"

The top character 姉 is a Japanese specific character for "elder sister". Its equivalent in Chinese are 姊 and 姐.

The bottom character 妹 means "younger sister". If the order of two horizontal stokes in 未 partical are reversed and changed the character to 妺, it would mean "wife of the last ruler of the Xia dynasty".

Both characters are somewhat recognizable, but I am astonished by the mangled left partial 女.
