No fish, thank you!

Below, Aaron bit into the limp fish. After a few bites, an unpleasant sensation struck his stomach. He barely made it to the edge of the ship in time and dangled over the rail.

Ryoichi watched with a bemused smirk.

"Silly boy, only animals can eat a raw fish!" he laughed and strode off as Aaron slid onto deck with a hand clutching his upset stomach.

The pirates quickly learned to be a bit more careful about what they asked of their kurach shipmates, and didn't consider asking for fish again as they had no sand pit or stove with which to cook them with. Ryoichi was thrilled his fish supply wasn't in danger and made a point to flaunt this regularly.

Notes & Commentary

No fish, thank you!

I love that cat.

And somewhere on that ship is the captain goin' "Shoulda wore ye gold earrings. Yer bad luck is yer own fault."

Ya wouldn't think he'd be so guillable. Desperation has been known to replace common sense in the past. Maybe we can excuse the oversight. I doubt he'll ever try real sushi now.

Chapter Notes:
Another year, another angsty, rebellious teenager. I guess she has good reason to be. Nobody's died yet, other than scores of fish. I really should have kept her in character and smacked that kid with a fish. :D
