CW: Derrick the Golden Onion.

Derrick the Golden Onion found himself on the counter with Red Onion and Shallot.

“Why aren’t you bowing to me?” he puffed his chest.

Red and Shallot looked at one another in confusion.

“I am the regal Golden Onion.”

“You can be whoever you want to be, but you’ll end up in a skillet, anyway,” Shallot shrugged.

Derrick shook his head. He would rule forever.

Shallot was chopped up and tossed into the skillet on Sunday.

His confidence grew.

Red went on Tuesday.

Derrick was victorious.

Until Friday.

“Color and shape really don’t mean anything?!” he realized at last.
