[ See these? They are sparkle eyes. Such sparkle eyes. They sparkle. ]
You would like to? [ He's immediately whipping back around to look back at the ocean. ] Ideally I'd love to capture it at different times of day - the angles and colours, shade and light and perhaps even the choppiness of the waves themselves...
Sure, we can make a day of it. Drop by the bakery without it's shitty blue roof, get some snacks to go, park ourselves wherever the view's good...
[And it will be a day that occasionally includes Sanji draping over Yusuke like a cat that wants attention, but otherwise he'll leave his boyfriend to his good time.]
I'd like that... besides, you have multiple years of not attending the beach to make up for.
[ He will accept the draping, as long as it doesn't come with talk of body pillows. Still, he settles himself down on the bench and pats the space next to him. ]
Come on, we have plenty of food to be getting through, and the view is perfect to accompany it.
[... Sanji makes no promises about those body pillows.
But thoughts for later! Sanji spins on his heel for the pleasure of it, ready to walk over to the bench and join Yusuke--
Except life isn't fair, and even if not to the extent of his past life, Sanji was apparently born under an ill-star. The collision of bodies is over in a second, both men on the floor, one of course being Sanji while the other is a random stranger who had been taking his daily jog. There's swearing, there's numb elbows, there's probably the promise of death spoken in French...
But the real kicker is the stranger, who gets back to his feet with a snarl, nursing his scraped cheek.] Would you watch it, dumbass!
[Nnnn]
Jeez, the hell are you from?? We don't stand around like dumbasses here in America!
[nNNNNNnn]
What, you got something to say? If you don't like it you ca... W-what the hell!?
[ Oh thank god, for a moment there he was worried this wouldn't be like almost every single other date they've had and Sanji might not have got into a fight with a random stranger. The balance is restored.
He'd almost say it was a talent, if it didn't always end so...
... well. Violently. Or with fire.
Good thing SOMEONE here can use ice, so putting out a fire isn't really a big deal. Being smooth enough to talk his way out of the situation, however, is. So he's just going to grab Sanji by the wrist and gently start trying to coax him away. ]
Please be more careful of where you are going. [ He's uh. Talking to both of you pay attention. ]
[It is a damn good thing Yusuke knows to restrain Sanji because he is still READY TO FIGHT and practically growling like a hissing cat as he's dragged off, away from the man who is spooked and irritated and very, very quickly doubly away from the two boyfriends.
Tch. FIGHT HIM, COWARD, HE IS READY, HE WILL KICK YOU INTO THE STRATOSPHE--]
Oi oi, for the record, that piss ant ran into me!
[Turning to Yusuke because it is very important his boyfriend be on his side, okay??? Immediately his opponent is forgotten as he's dragged off]
[ LOOK. He likes going on dates and doesn’t want them to stop because SOMEONE got arrested for burning a jogger alive. Thank. ]
A little singe would have been enough.
[ YUSUKE NO. ]
Literally. Come on— [ Sanji’s hand is his now. Time to drag him. ] There’s probably another, quieter bench with an equally lovely view along here somewhere.
[MMMM YUSUKE YES? That moment when his boyfriend is only slightly less cutthroat than he is and Sanji is looking plenty mollified upon being dragged away.]
Fine, we'll do it your way. [The asshole lives to see another day! They need to keep track of how many people Yusuke saves daily by being Sanji's compass.]
I think I saw a bench nearby... [Glancing over Yusuke's shoulder before he finally keeps pace. Less dragging, more walking hand in hand. See? He's behaving!]
Thank you kindly. [ Sanji's hand gets a gentle, yet happy squeeze. He's doing good. Yusuke is proud. ] Honestly, any bench will do. The view anywhere along here is glorious... I don't think we can go wrong.

[ Shame. Shame. Shame. ... It's not that much of a big deal, really. Actually.
Yusuke nods, almost absently sitting himself down on one of the benches, still looking at the view. ]
I could try from memory. Or take a photograph to replicate it from, but it is not the same as capturing the view directly.
no subject
[yes, "we", because Sanji doesn't mind it when Yusuke is engrossed in his own thing? It sounds relaxing to him]
Use it as an excuse to get me out here more.

I would agree that as the moving party he should've been more aware of where he was moving to, but you did set his hair on fire.
