Week 1 | Saturday

[concasse]

[... considering how much energy that shitty trial cost him, Sanji should not be relieved -- or having the sense not to show it on his expression. A girl's going to die, and whether or not she deserved it remains irrelevant to him. Just another casualty in a war they don't belong to.

... But still. Hanging outside the door to his room, Sanji doesn't seem sad, and especially as Eichi approaches, he'll offer the other a hint of a smile]

Hey.

Comments

[concasse]

Heh, what's this? I get my own private show?

[He means that way more innocently than the words insinuate, though Sanji now officially disapproves of any canoodling with Akechi.]

[finethanks]

[It's sad that Eichi's laugh covers his own realization of how that sounds, because he's sure Sanji didn't mean it. He won't say a thing, he'll enjoy that to himself, thanks!

But at least it gets a genuine chuckle.]

That's right. I don't offer those out to just anyone, you know? Not even my biggest fans. So, I hope you'll appreciate it.

[concasse]

[That horrifying moment when Sanji is purer than Eichi, what have we done]

Of course. I haven't gotten a chance to listen to anyone sing since Brook gave a performance on ship.

[-- a pause]

My crew's musician, I mean.

[finethanks]

[Sanji more pure than Eichi? More Likely Than You Think]

Your crew has a musician?

[PIRATES CARE ABOUT THAT?? His eyes are sparkling, he is gone, he is cured, Akechi who]

[concasse]

[EICHI PLEASE]

Of course! Wouldn't be a proper crew without one!

[Musicians aren't essential, no, but they fulfill the role of idols in that sense -- keep up the spirits of those around them]

He's actually a skeleton, too. With an afro.

[One Piece~]

[finethanks]

Brook-san, the skeleton with an afro...

[You know, he met a skeleton here, so he guesses he shouldn't be surprised. What kind of world is out there? Did he miss all this from being in the hospital?]

I wish I could meet him. A skeleton playing music... I can't ask "how good is he?" because it's no question that you'd say he's the best, so that makes me want to hear him even more.

[concasse]

Yeah, can't disagree with ya there.

[GOTTA SUPPORT THE CREW. Sanji does not look ashamed by this.]

But he really is the best. The bastard can play any instrument he picks up. Don't know how he got to be that good...

'Course, his favorites are the violin and the piano.

[finethanks]

Really? My music heavily features those instruments, you know? I'd love to hear him sometime.

[He'll pay big money!! Bring the skeleton!! Actually...] Once we've escaped this place, won't you tell him that I'd love to hear him some time?
