[ Fun fact: no, Yusuke does not know Baren's name. Despite the fact the guy offloaded 5 dozen roses off on him a few months ago. Not even an introduction. So rude. ]

「I'm now concerned why you said my name, and in such a mocking tone as well...

Am I being insulted somehow?」

[concasse]

[Good lord, that sounds like Baren. And as it sounds like Yusuke's asking a question, just based off the rising intonation of his voice, Sanji pauses before:]

No.

[Which sounds comparable to "No" in English]

Not that I know what you asked... unless you asked why we're still doing this.

In that case - Yes.

[fabrefactions]

「 No, and I know the other one is yes, which is it? 」

[concasse]

... "Hi" right back at ya?

[Hai/Yes vs Hi... haha language puns]

[fabrefactions]

「 Why "hi"? 」

[concasse]

The hell do you keep saying "hi" to me?

... "Bye"?

pretend i'm still doing those quotations

[fabrefactions]

Why do you keep saying "hi"? We're far past that in the conversation now.

[ "Conversation" ]

Unless that means something in French. Maybe I should be recording all of this to play to Haru later...

LOL we have both reached peak laziness

[concasse]

... Haru?

[... Maybe that's just a Japanese word? Sure, he put emphasis on it like you would a name, but...]

we make ourselves suffer much

[fabrefactions]

Haru.

[ Now THAT he understood. ]

[concasse]

Aaaah, figures you'd know her.

What, you two dating?

[fabrefactions]

[ Oh and now we're back to stuff he doesn't understand. After a moment, he sighs. For the bff, he will take this loss. ]

I assume we didn't just randomly repeat Haru's name back and forth for the fun of it.

[concasse]

[YEAAAAAA HE WINS HE... HE...

Ah to hell with it. Even if in name, Haru continues to have this subduing effect on Sanji -- like he's been reminded of purity made flesh, and thus can't understand why the universe allows lesser men to exist.]

So you know her? Short girl, curly hair?

[fabrefactions]

[ Haru is a blessing upon this earth. It's true. Also tiny and terrifying, but you will learn, Sanji. You will learn. ]

Yes, that would be her. Half-French, gifted florist and baker. Also the person who kindly translated your "insults" when you first messaged me.

[ You will learn. ]

[concasse]

[W H A T]

Oh you shitty cheat, I knew something was weird!

Don't bring your girlfriend into our fights, that shit's in poor taste!

[fabrefactions]

[ A sad, tired, almost audible squint at his phone. ]

Firstly, Haru is not my girlfriend.

Secondly, I will utilise resources and kindly given favours as I like, thank you.

[concasse]

Oh?

[Huh. Too bad, that would've been cute, at least--

Oh shit wait--]

Well that's good, because I need a favor suddenly.

[fabrefactions]

It is a common misconception.

[ Oh whoops he's gone temporarily deaf and can't hear anything. ]

I said kindly given, not opportunistically taken.

[concasse]

Shit, at least hear me out!

[BE A PAL?]

[fabrefactions]

[ This long silence indicates he is listening. Go on. ]

[concasse]

... Don't have her translate any of this.

[And before Yusuke cant even open his mouth:]

Just trust me, don't translate it! It was whatever dumb bullshit you assume I was saying.

[fabrefactions]

...

[ SUSPICIOUSLY SPECIFIC REQUEST. ]

That just makes me want to ask her to translate it, if I am honest

[concasse]

Listen, I'm trying to spare us both the agony here.

Haru sounds like she's close to you, so let's... let's not.

[...]

I'll pay you extra for the commission.

[fabrefactions]

Best friend of 13 years, yes. I would say that's close.

[ squints. ]

I'm assuming there was an insult in there in that case.

[concasse]

Nah.

[Bluntly:]

I'd say those to your face.

[fabrefactions]

I see.

[ Fair enough.

... Although. ]

But now I'm even more curious what you said, if it wasn't an insult.
