Sanji "flaming bullshit" Vinsmoke ([personal profile] concasse) wrote2011-11-04 04:27 am

001↠ Action/Voice

[There is something extraordinarily jarring about finding yourself in a chilled, unfamiliar forest, when two seconds ago you were under the sea, fighting off a legion of crazed fishmen. The blonde man clad in the usual New Feather's garb is none too pleased with this switch once he gathers his bearings, and he sets off in a direction that might be right, straining to hear any sounds of battle, only half-mindful of the journal he hasn't ditched yet. The hows and whys can wait until he's back with his crew.

He'll come across the town, eventually, once a certain child skipping school sets him straight. And it will feel like the longest half hour of Sanji's life, hearing what she says to him -- and once she's safely back home and past her tears, he's going to... head straight to the grocery.

Cigarettes. Need them. Now. He flies through a pack of the damn things before grabbing another, shoving it into a flimsy pocket like it's his last sane lifeline. It might as well be. Navigating back home (...home), along an all-too familiar path, makes his head and chest hurt from the seeping memories.

Heh, what a load of shitty bull. He doesn't want to be here. Except he sorta does. Maybe. And damn, it'd be nice if he could make up his mind.

There will be no such luck today. He goes home, combing the house for available crew members; any kind of anchor and stability. And after that, there's the clothing shop for his suits. Then Seventh Heaven. Then tracking down every person his memory supplies a name for - Xion. Miyabi. Sayo. Katara. Vash. Wolfwood. Isamu. Shit how many are there? - until his head feels too full and he goes to collapse at the bar around evening. Only then does the journal open.]


... Oi. [Fuck, where does one begin? Let's start with a name] It's Sanji. [Pause, and then with tired ire] Guess you shitheads aren't rid of me yet.


[ooc: If you think Sanji would look for your character... then he would probably look for your character. XD So yeah. << RUN INTO HIM ANYWHERE, previous CR or otherwise! He's all over town, and I care not for these things called continuity and time (save for who finds him in the forest - that honor goes to Elicia.)]

...

[ The sound of a shattering plate rings through the communicator, followed by a long silence.]

S-S...Sanji-chin?

[Even if he hadn't recognized that special honorific, that's a voice Sanji can't forget, in Luceti or any other universe. He smiles, voice quiet]

Neh, Keimi-chan. I'm back.

Strange, huh? Looks like the shitheads didn't take that away from me.

[No way. Not only was he back, but he remembered everything? Part of her was relieved that he would remember everyone and everything. But that also means that he remembers all the awkwardness that happened between them. Still, none of that matters right now, because he's back.]

No chance. Sanji-chin is way too strong to let that happen!

[he smiles at that, and it lacks the awkwardness from other conversations he's had today.]

Aaahn, Keimi-chan flatters me with such praise~!

[She giggles happily.]

I kept the kitchen clean for you! I used it to make dinner for the crew a few times, but I'm sure they're looking forward to your cooking again.

[It went about as well as you'd expect. :|b]

Such an angel you are~! I'm sure the crew enjoyed it~!

[Yes, well, he's still thankful she'd go that far. ;;]

Of course~! My takoyaki is the best around!

[The rest? Not so much.]

One day Keimi-chan should make some for me too~!!

[Her giggles only grow.]

Oh Sanji-chin! Of course I'll cook for you!

[Not that he thought you'd turn him down, but the offer makes him smile all the same.]

And I'll look forward to it.

[But that aside, he looks at her with more gravity in his expression] How have you been doing?

I've been... okay. I've been trying to learn to cook for humans. And I'm getting better at keeping Luffy-chin out of the kitchen!

[Once she realized that a shocked expression and asking politely wouldn't do it...]

Tch, mannerless shithead. Just smack that ass with a frying pan next time, Keimi-chan. It works most of the time.

... And really? [He looks both pleased and proud] That's wonderful~! I'm sure you'll be making heavenly meals in no time~!

Well Hachin taught me everything I know about cooking for fishmen, Mikey-chin taught me all about baking before he was sent home... and I picked up a thing or two watching you~.

[Oh then she really is learning from the best. 8|b]

Actually, about that... what do fishmen eat?
