The real piracy isn't gold. It's suffering. Don't join a Rust-Cutter crew unless you're ready to become part of the scrap. Top Comments:
I joined the Rust-Cutter crew two seasons back. Captain Vex doesn't wear a tricorn; she wears a welding mask fused to her skull. Her ship isn't wood. It's scrap. She pulls sunken iron from the Dead Shallows and rivets it to the hull while her crew sings hymns to the Drowned God in reverse. r/pirscy
(1.2k points) "The mer-row ate my ear and now it knows my name" is the hardest line I've read all year. New flair request: Eaten Ear Gang u/DepthCharger (890 points) The Code of the Tide is literally written in salt-water soluble ink for a reason, mate. You ignore it at your own peril. Vex is going to get you all turned into coral statues when the Drowned God wakes up. u/CrustyQuartermaster (450 points) Reply to u/DepthCharger: The Drowned God is a fairy tale told to hold us back. The real horror is what Vex is doing to that singer. She's not a pirate. She's a sadotech . Different beast. u/Barnacle_Betty (300 points) Hold on. Everyone ignoring that Scrimshaw has BARNACLES FOR TEETH? Is that a curse or a choice? u/Captain_Grime_Tooth (OP) (280 points) He lost his real teeth chewing through a ghost net. The barnacles grew back in the gaps. He's fine with it. Says it helps him grip rope. u/Fishwife_Fables (210 points) If you hear singing that sounds like your own mother crying, don't go to the lower deck. That's just the mer-row learning your regrets. Sweet dreams. u/Deckhand_Dying (95 points) I'm on a sweetfruit hauler. We have a cat named Pickles. I'm quitting this subreddit. You're all insane. u/Captain_Grime_Tooth (OP) (200 points) Tell Pickles I said pspspsps. And check your hold for rust. If you see orange flakes that smell like cloves, it's already too late. Moderator Note (u/The_Salt_King): Post approved. Rule 4 violation avoided (no explicit ear removal imagery). Marked NSFL for psychological dread. Remember, r/pirscy is for discussion of unethical nautical fantasy practices only. Do not attempt to bind a mer-row. Do not feed your body parts to sea creatures. Do not weld a welding mask to your skull. The real piracy isn't gold
I asked her: "Captain, the Code of the Tide says no binding a singer. It brings the Kraken's eye." Top Comments: I joined the Rust-Cutter crew two
