“He whipped out his sheet, then pulled it over himself and wrapped it tightly around his face like an old woman in a shawl.
'How do I look?'
'Like the ugliest shanky girl I鈥檝e ever seen,' Minho responded. 'You better thank the gods above you were born a dude.'
'Thanks.”
― James Dashner, The Scorch Trials

“Shanks moaned, stirring. 鈥淵ou broke my nuts鈥�
So that was what my elbow had hit. 鈥淪orry.鈥� My voice cracked.”
― Lili St. Crow, Defiance

“Listen,' Thomas said, slowly getting to his feet, hoping Minho wouldn鈥檛 be stupid enough to try anything. 鈥淭here鈥檚 something about us. We鈥檙e not just random shanks who showed up on your doorstep. We鈥檙e valuable. Alive, not dead.鈥�
The anger on Jorge鈥檚 face lessened ever so slightly. Maybe a spark of curiosity. But what he said was 'What鈥檚 a shank?”

“Luffy: "Shanks you arm!"

Shanks: "Its no big deal. Just one arm. I'm glad your safe”

“And what about your brother, Agus? Will he be entertaining us with his pipes?鈥�

鈥淎gg,鈥� Shanks rasped, wrinkling his nose. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 tell you? He ain鈥檛 with us no more.鈥� A heavy fist slammed on the arm of the Viidun鈥檚 chair as he growled, 鈥淭he idiot went off and got himself killed!鈥�

鈥淲hat?鈥� Derian and Eena replied in unison, both horrified by the news.

鈥淵ou heard me!鈥� Shanks bellowed. 鈥淭he crazy fool should鈥檝e known when to duck. He died in a bloody challenge with some brainless Deramptium! A downright disgraceful way to die! I鈥檓 ashamed to say he was my brother!鈥�

鈥淭hat鈥檚 a little harsh, isn鈥檛 it?鈥� Eena muttered, mostly speaking to Derian.

鈥淲hat was that?鈥� the Viidun demanded.

Derian whispered a hush to Eena. Addressing Shanks, he expressed their condolences. 鈥淲e are truly sorry for your loss. Your brother will be sorely missed. On the other hand, we look forward to welcoming you and your crew aboard the Kemeniroc.鈥� Derian held up his right hand, extending his thumb and two adjoining fingers. 鈥淪trength, truth, and honor, friend,鈥� he said, ending their conversation.

鈥淪trength, truth, and honor,鈥� Shanks repeated.

The screen went black. The captain turned to Eena who was still in shock.

鈥淵ou have to understand,鈥� he explained, 鈥渢he Viiduns are a fiercely competitive people with proud, warring ways. Their culture doesn鈥檛 call for much sympathy, especially when it appears one of their own has failed to live up to expectations.鈥�

Eena was still disturbed by the lack of compassion. 鈥淏ut that was his brother.鈥�

鈥淚 know. I can hardly believe it myself. Shanks and Agus were very close. They traveled everywhere together. All I can figure is it鈥檚 easier for Shanks to express his anger than his anguish.鈥�

鈥淎fter all that, I鈥檓 not sure I want to meet him in person. He scares me,鈥� she admitted.

Derian laughed. 鈥淗e scares everyone. That鈥檚 why you want to keep him as an ally and not make him an enemy.”
