At the docks of Choco Mud Town, the silence was barely disturbed by the slow movements of probably the strangest deckhand the Salty Shark had ever employed.

Candy Diver Cookie was sweeping a patch of the main dock beside the enormous hull of Captain Caviar Cookie's flagship. The task was a bit challenging, primarily because they didn't seem to understand the concept of friction. While most Cookies would safely mop the deck at a regular pace, Candy Diver Cookie used it as if it was constantly being pulled by the pressure of the sea.

Nevertheless, they were doing their job well, so it wasn't like anyone would interrupt them.
