“I have arranged for food to be brought here, this poor fellow will probably need to eat as well. As for your tools, they’re on the Deck of the ship, tucked beside the port wale.” He began to gather the armour from around the cabin setting it back on the armour stand. “When you have eaten your fill, you’ll find the Carpenters working on the Keel, report to them and they can give you the extent of the damages.”

Dolphus watched as the water and fruits was brought in, recognizing the barrel of hardtack he had acquired so long ago… No you idiot it was like a day or, or two days… What day is it again???

@Winterstorm345

Mariner selected a piece of Hardtack, dropped it in the Sea water and set about slicing a tomato. “Eat.” He said to the two, “Food is being readied for the rest of the crew as well.”

He had his reservations about actually consuming any of the food brought in, what with his stomach in seven different knots and his back broken and his ribs broken and his shoulder torn up and melted and his mind overly projecting outside things onto himself to a mentally unwell degree, but when Mariner commanded him to eat, he had to actively stop his hand from quickly snatching something up.

It wasn’t anything in Mariner’s voice outside of the general weariness and lack of patience in the moment that made him so willing to simply jump to the order. Any real preventative measure that would normally exist was simply depleted beyond comprehension; if Mariner told him to jump off the stern into the sea he would be halfway there before he realized what was going on.

However, more than any possible hunger, his lack of internal fluids due to dehydration suddenly drove itself into a maddening thirst. He had been crying his eyes out all day long, and his tongue felt as dry as the sand. Softly, he reached for the tantalizing jug of water…

She was so hungry that she simply grabbed a handful of hardtack from the barrel and, not even trying to soak it in water or break it beforehand, showed all of it in her mouth. What followed, was a loud crunching sound.

Of course, it was incredibly bland, stale had hardly any taste, but to Ari at that moment, it was the tastiest thing she’s ever eaten.

After she was done with the first batch, she grabbed a jug of fresh water and emptied it in one go. She then proceeded to stuff her face with bread once again, grabbed more of it in one hand and a couple tomatoes in the other.

There was some hesitation since Ari began wolfing down a square of hardtack and smashing through it with her sharp teeth so quickly that it seemed like she could bite through steel if she tried, but his journey to grasp the handle of the jug resumed…

…Just a moment too late, as he blinked at the area where the jug used to be, head and eyes slowly rotating in disbelief as Ari downed the entire thing in one go. He couldn’t help but let his lips part as his eyes and brow narrowed in annoyance.

Not waiting any longer, Ari stormed up to the entrance of the room, but then suddenly stopped, turned around, looked at Mariner and said with her mouth still full:

“Thank you for everything!”

She bowed, switched her sights to Dolphus, gave him a quick thumbs up and rushed out of the room.

Ari’s reply was barely legible due to the sheer quantity of hardtack in her mouth, but the general message got through. Dolphus stared in disbelief at the thumbs up he received, simply incapable of processing all the events that had occurred on top of the sudden and light attitude she was having towards the entire situation.

As she fled from the scene, the air in the room whooshed after her, leaving Dolphus alone with Mariner once again. In spite of the sudden contraction of his gut, he hesitantly picked up an orange, and being unable to pierce the peel clicked just enough of his sword out from its hilt to slice through it instead.

OOC: now time for more crying I presume
