[ elysium is going to be so sad when he hears about this. that was thorns' breakfast he lovingly made for him… :(
but thorns can eventually come across people muttering that they will never steal from the pantry again while writing lines. and if they need to get work done, they will do it themselves or ask for help when they need it.
thorns may note that they're covered in sparkles and confetti. is there a more humiliating fate for a grizzled pirate? no… ]
[ it's the same person thorns told about offering the ghost potatoes. he says, a little fearfully, that he needed help with a job but did not have any on him. so, he took one from the pantry… who would notice a singular potato? probably no one.
but then, other people had the same idea and so that singular potato turned into multiple potatoes. they woke up in the morning to the furniture in their room shifted a few pixels and to being hit with a face full of confetti when they tried to leave.
so basically, thorns started this potato heist. he has no one to blame but himself. ]
a random crew member who has seemingly not gotten involved in this whatsoever until now delivers another baked potato to him for lunch. what does he do. ]
[ they explain they just found it on their workstation when they turned around to do something else. there was a scary note saying to deliver this to the captain or they'll face consequences.
it's such a bizarre thing to come across and normally he wouldn't give it any weight, but weird things have been happening aboard the ship anyway that he felt compelled to follow its orders.
[ the first potato was also good but thorns let it die a tragic death. and to answer thorns' question: the power of knowing reirin.
and they should only be scared if the potatoes are unethically sourced… the word of god is whoever is in charge of meals and if anyone is caught sneaking things again, they will have to answer to their kindly neighbourhood friend. the potatoes did nothing wrong!!!!! ]

thorns just holds onto this potato more tightly, still wondering what the hell happened here. ]
Someone gave me this.

he attempts to save his captain's life(?) by smacking it out of his hands. ]
no subject
thorns watches it fall to the ground. someone else grabs it and rushes to get rid of it, mumbling a prayer as they go.
...
okay. thorns thanks them for their service and keeps walking. ]

well. eventually it'll come time to when they are supposed to meet up, so thorns will head there. he has so many questions to ask. ]
no subject

You're going to bed.

Huh. But I left you that potato? That was supposed to be your breakfast.
[ talks like these are two completely independent events because they are. ]
no subject
thorns is like two seconds away from pinching him. ]
Was it? They were so sure if I ate it, I'd be cursed by the ghost.
no subject
[ thorns should pinch him. ]
no subject
[ ...

And why did you vanish on me?
