{From End Of March’s gorgeous Book of Ships}
Narwhals, the unicorns of the sea! I like their cute little horned faces so much I got one on my arm. Crappy picture, but this little beast is an absolute work of art. Exquisite. I am so happy to have him on my left arm.
I wasn’t planning a tattoo, but you know, it was rainy and I didn’t want to go to yet another film (three in three days). Tattoos are generally indoor activities, right? So yeah, NARWHAL!

Narwhals are pretty much one of the most under appreciated animals ever, but I do love them so! Sweet tattoo!
This is a really stupid question, but is it a real tattoo? :)
Michelle: Definitely real! x
