Cartoon creature with I Like Chocolate milk text
Chest · Mixed · Photo
The tattoo shows a cartoon creature with a rounded peach body, large pink-rimmed eyes and small lashes, with a small flower-like mark at its side. The words I Like Chocolate milk sit to the left in black, plain lettering, arranged over three lines. A soft blue wash sits behind the creature, and the outlines are bold and simple against the pale skin.

Now then, shift up on that bench and mind the gull. You want to know how Pemberly the Peach came to stand at the foot of the lighthouse with his eyes out on stalks, staring at the sea as if it owed him money? I'll tell you, though you'll not believe the half of it.

Pemberly was a creature of the tidepools, shaped like a pear that had lost an argument, and he had one great ambition: to taste the chocolate milk the keeper's wife kept cold in a wooden crate on the rocks. Every evening she wedged a bottle in the seaweed for the fishermen's boys, and every evening Pemberly stretched up his neck, lashes fluttering, only to find it empty, because the gulls had got there first. Gulls, he said, were a plague sent to test a fellow's patience.
So one night in the fog he hauled himself up the lighthouse steps, one slow slap at a time, and reached the lamp room just as the great light swung round. The blue wash of the beam poured over him, and the keeper's wife, who had come up with a lantern, found him blinking at the lens. He pointed at the bottle in her apron pocket with a small flower-shaped hand and said, very clearly, "I like chocolate milk."
She laughed until she had to sit down on the stairs, then handed him the bottle, and he drank the lot standing there. The gulls still circle the rocks, but not one of them has got a sip off him since. Mind the top step on your way out. It's slippy with cream.
