AAAAACCCEEEE!!!!!

[Hark! It's the roar of an angry phoenix in pirate form.]

MY SHAMPOO?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! Oh god it's even in my feathers! MY FEATHERS ACE!!! AHHH WHY'D YOU HAVE TO PICK RED?! Even raven black would have been better! I look like I hero-worship Shanks now! I swear when I find you Ace!

[For anyone getting a good look in the journal, Marco's hair has been badly dyed red, oh yeah and he looks every bit as ticked off as he sounds. Later on however, he'll be sporting a fedora to cover up that Akagami-wannabe look, and looking for hair dye remover. Or bleach. Or as a last resort, black hair dye. Anything's better than red with him. He will also be putting up posters: "Ever want to be a pirate? Join the Whitebeards! Limited time offer" though more on that later. And even more than that, a certain usually very blue bird will have a slightly red and purple tinge to his feathers for a little while. So not pleased. Still, he'll be around to help out any New Feathers or someone needing directions to town. And if anything, he arguably looks more like a traditional phoenix. Not that he wants that.]

[Later on that night when he stops trying to beat Ace to a pulp there will be a second very short post.]

Does anyone have hair dye remover, bleach, or something in black? I couldn't find any in the shop. Thanks, eh.

How extreme?

Money is but a means to an end. You can't eat it, but you can buy food. You can't use it for a house or a ship, but you can try to buy one if you like having to spend even more money repairing it all the time. Money is just a middle man and it's easier to go straight to the source sometimes. Besides, material wealth means nothing against nakama.

Killing people just to rob them of their money would be the most extreme someone can get about it, right? I don't doubt I should have to tell you that, but since you at least seem to have better views on this whole matter than most people do..

Aye. Quite a few pirates are like that. But most prefer to leave people alive though, since people are just going to fight back if they have nothing to lose.

I guess I have a skewed idea of extreme. Slavery seems more drastic to me.

It depends more on the kind of mindset you have. For some people, dying is more scary than anything else. Others would welcome death.

I guess it's part of being a pirate. A lot of pirates would rather die than be a slave. Being in prison is one thing. They torture and slowly starve in prison, but they still can't force you to do the same to anyone else.
