I got the sense that the function by which he "ate" the spell was qualitatively different from Papa Raith. Eb described it as magic sliding off him; Thorny waved a hand and "ate" it. Lord Raith's was passive protection, Thorny's was active, if that makes sense. At least, that's how I read it.

No. One is Pam on a frying pan, the other is teflon. Stuff doesn't stick to it, but the way it's done is different; same outcome, different means. Outsider sponsorship is not the only means by which magic can be negated; we saw that with the Genoskwa, which grounded magic out passively.

Does Thorny gain in power when eating magic or is it dispersed?

.... Na man, pretty sure that's the whole point of Necromancy/darkmagic/antilife connectives. positive and negative force. both things come from the negative sources.
