❝ For the taking of revenge, a man locks himself up alone and thinks. His stomach must be empty for his head to be full. Vengeance comes a little from the heart and a lot from the mind; one must take oneself apart from the noise of men and of things, even from what resembles them; only the voices of bells and of thunder are allowed. And when the ships had lifted, they returned across the river to the silence of death, for he knew to crave the blood of men more than the flesh of women. ❞

What does Pyke think of Jhin, if anything.

Pyke sees Jhin as someone of little interest to him, though Pyke can respect him. The work that Jhin does is true to who he is, after all killing is something he himself can understand. What he doesn’t like about Jhin is how every death happens to be some form of a show. He wholly believes that if someone’s going to be a killer, they may as well kill for sport or for gold; there’s no point in making a mockery of death with this so called ‘art’ or ‘entertainment’.

Is there any place he feels safe? Where he keeps coming back to "rest" (if there's any)

Yes, there is one place and that’s deep within the sunken ship he and his crewmates once sailed upon. THE TERROR was indeed a ship, though his former crewmates paid a pretty penny to erase all accounts and documents of the ship’s existence. They then refurbished the ship and sold it to another crew, and the ship was renamed. Of course, Pyke would have known the ship from every gash and scar on the bottom, so he sunk it thinking his former crew was on it.

One or two people were, but he killed most of the rest despite them not being directly involved in his death. After the ship sunk, Pyke inhabited its wreckage as his home. When he ‘ dies ’, his body returns there in the same state it was in when he originally died. He also goes here to get away from the surface.

Why choose the wreckage of his former ship? He uses it as another way to anchor himself to this reality, to ensure he isn’t simply going crazy and to ensure he doesn’t forget why he hunts and kills. It’s also an easy place to store his belongings, he knows its interior and exterior like the back of his hand, it’s in an area populated by sharks and other deadly creatures, it’s still in the heart of Bloodharbor, and he does love the ship even if it beings back bad memories.

❛ don't'cha get soggy from staying in the water like that all the time? or wait--- oh, oh, PRUNEY! aren't you all shriveled up and pruney? but then you'd get soggy after getting pruney ... geez, i don't know a lot about living underwater, but am i sure glad i'm not a soggy old knife man! can you talk to fish? oh, and can you ... ❜ she's gonna keep asking questions. you might wanna cut her off while you have the chance, pyke!

          Pyke wasn’t used to the persistence of others, especially ones who didn’t seem to fear him. Conversations were usually cut short, either by the screams of those who regarded him, or their sudden silence from the edge of his barber-blade. Regardless, as he hears the excited girl ramble on, Pyke stares with glowing eyes, dark circles surrounding them to emphasize just how tired he was ( though he was uncertain if this was exhaustion or not ). — Though this was a child… and he wasn’t that cruel.

          A hand reaches down into the waters, and with it comes a fish that he merely hands to the bubbly girl in hopes that she’ll become distracted.

          “ I ain’t old girlie, I think. Don’t matter, an’ no I can’t talk to fish. Dead men don’t get pruney, either. ”

What does Pyke make of the Shadow Islers

Pyke hates them, just as any Bilgewatian would and should. The Harrowing is the one event that manages to unite Bilgewater, setting differences aside to protect everyone’s home. There’s a reason why Miss Fortune managed to get Graves and TF to help her not only take care of the Harrowing, but to take care of Gangplank at the same time.

Pyke is no exception, as he’ll put aside his differences and hatred to help defend Bilgewater’s ports since he can fight in the fog without conflict. He knows the waters better than most, and he can’t permanently die unless under very particular circumstances, so he’ll always regenerate if he’s killed during the fight.

But Islers have only ever given him a reason to despise them, and oh he loves to kill them when the time comes.

If Pyke learned the name of a dead person, would their name show up on his list but already crossed out or would it just not show up?

Assuming this person was one of his former crewmates, he’d write the name down just in case they ended up like him: undead. He’d be bitter that he wasn’t the one to finish the job, but it would cause him to investigate and search to be sure they’re still dead and not walking among the living. If they are, in fact, dead, then he crosses the name out.

Bounces a stone off the water surface a honestly IMPRESSIVE amount of times.

          He hears the plip - plop of the stones hitting the water before it stops and sinks down below. It hadn’t bothered him until the stone falls and nearly interrupts his travels. A gloved hand curls around the stone and he tosses it with all his might back where it had come from: at the person who threw it.

          “ These waters ain’t for throwin’ shit, kid. GO HOME. ”

          Pyke’s voice echoes from the shimmering ( yet murky ) surface of the water, not quite showing himself, though he allows the water to ripple with every movement he makes as he comes a tad closer.

i laugh at the thought of pyke getting so drunk with his old crew that he’s stumbled overboard countless times, as with other sailors, after a haul that’ll land them a good amount of gold krakens
