elysium....... ]
no subject
is he going to wake up to thorns staring at him like they're in a horror… no… ]
no subject
well, no. whenever he does wake up, thorns will be there, but it's because he is bringing a large box inside. ]
no subject
he sits up. ]
Where'd that come from?
[ they're out at sea?? ]
no subject
[ he opens the top of it and
it is full of potatoes. ]
We have a potato thief.
no subject
People have really enjoyed giving me potatoes lately for some reason.
[ that's because they consistently work ]
no subject
he moves in front of the box, almost protectively. ]
You've been taking my potatoes...?
[ as if elysium didn't just say people have been giving them to him. ]
no subject
It's not like I know where they come from. I just put them back in the kitchen.
[ … ]
And if you're so protective of them, shouldn't you be taking better care of them in the first place?
no subject
[ that is not what elysium said, but it is how thorns is choosing to interpret his words. ]
no subject
[ DON'T JUST GO ALONG WITH IT ]
I can tell you who's been giving them to me…
no subject
... ]
No, I'll figure it out.
no subject
[ oh my god. ]
They have nothing to do with how you perform as a captain. Keeping inventory can be delegated to anyone you trust…
It can be me?
no subject
Do you want it as a job?
no subject
[ they aren't in the pantry. don't make elysium room with potatoes. ]
no subject
thorns sighs and picks up the box. he will go and leave now with it... ]
no subject
he scrambles to get up and follows after him… thorns… don't crash out over potatoes?? ]
no subject
he glances over his shoulders when he hears footsteps following after him... ]
no subject
[ stop giving him attitude. ]
Do you have a problem?
no subject
[ elysium really opened his eyes and was greeted by potatoes. ]
You should go back to bed.
no subject
[ he catches up and tries to take the box of potatoes from thorns. how successful is he. ]
You've been working all day. You're the one who needs to relax——so, let me.
no subject
Have you brushed your teeth yet?
[ don't use his vanity against him... ]
no subject
Did it look like I had the time to? I'll do it after I move this box back.
no subject
Isn't it heavy for you?
no subject
[ the tugging turns into yanks. ]
no subject
he lets go. ]
