Week 5 | Wednesday

[For a chef, Sanji doesn't have that many precious items that he'd go out of his way to hunt down. So long as he can replace his kitchenware, his motto is not to get too attached to any one tool; he can always find something better, he can always work to replace an object.

That said... he does have a particular set of kitchen knives that he's fond of, that only resided on his ship Sunny. Finding them just hanging on one of the foyer banisters like it might fall?

Kinda gets the heart rate going]

Oh-- shit--

[It's probably a trick but to hell with it, Sanji wants those knives. And that's how Cardia will find him, reaching for his set and hopefully not falling off the stairs himself]

Week 5 | Wednesday

[But what if your pet is the one who grabs your precious item first and is playing keep away because she thinks it's a game?

That's how Natsuo is going to find Sanji -- literally chasing after a baby tiger who has got a pink apron of all things in her mouth, gleefully zooming about the foyer while the chef yells after]

O-oi, Nami-chan! Don't chew that! It's my favorite one!

Week 5 | Wednesday

[But really, what could be more precious to a nicotine addict than a fresh carton of cigarettes?

And it's his favorite brand! Even knowing about the bullshit memory thing going on, this is not a chance Sanji is about to pass on.

Hence why he's standing on his kitchen counters (HIM. ON HIS PRECIOUS COUNTERS), reaching up on tip toe to snatch the cigarettes that peek over the very top of the shelf]

C'mon... almost got it...!

Week 5 | Wednesday

[There is a pink, floral shirt just hanging from one of the top bookshelves in the library.

Just.

Hanging out like the world's most disappointing flag.

Sanji hasn't even bothered to reach for it yet, instead standing there with his arms folded in quiet judgment]

... I didn't like that shirt that much.

[Ugh. Fine. He's reaching for it!]

Week 5 | Wednesday

[Sanji doesn't frequent the library as much as some of his castle colleagues, but he doesn't avoid it either, especially when he's on the hunt for a new recipe to try out.

... Didn't expect to find his gaudy cigarette lighter glinting like a jewel on one of the top most shelves, but--]

Why the hell is that even there...

[He can't just jump the distance like he usually would, so it's time to enlist a chair to aid him. That's how Veronica is likely to find him -- stretched out to his tippy toes, two seconds away from either falling on his ass or grabbing that lighter]

C'mon...!

Week 5 | Wednesday

[Sanji has no business in the laboratory given he's no chemist. His reason for being here is to fetch one of his friends something or other, and it just so happens that along the way--

He spotted his gaudy ass lighter hidden under one of the tables. With a little bending and wiggling, it won't be too hard to grab, but that doesn't stop Sanji from swearing the entire time.

He is entirely leggy. Why must he do this]

Just watch it disappears the moment I touch it...! Tch.
