Week 6 | Tuesday

[concasse]

[Sanji is on the hunt for Cardia.

And whenever he finds her, she'll be able to see this isn't a pleasure trip. His expression is sketched with irritation, no matter how he tries to offer her his usual smile.]

Neh, Cardia-chan~!

Mind if we speak for a sec?

Comments

[discardia]

[ ... ]

... I'm angry, and hurt, and sad.

[ And she says this slowly. ]

But I-- don't want to give up.

[concasse]

I'm glad to hear it.

[...]

I know quite a few people working to get us out of this mess, so we just gotta keep faith and help out.

Let's both try our best, alright?

[discardia]

... All right.

[ ... ]

But my newest objective is to beat someone with a pumpkin until they're unconscious or dead, so I don't think I'll be all that helpful with accomplishing objectives.

[concasse]

[.........]

I mean.

We could come up with a plan to make that happen.

[Raises a finger]

I know a healer, so as long as you can get through kicking my ass...

[discardia]

...

Haven't you already been through enough abuse?

[concasse]

[GOD SHE WENT FOR THE THROAT]

O-oi, but think of it this way!

I'm used to it, so it'll be kinder to use me instead of anyone else, right?

Plus I'm volunteering! I wouldn't do it if I didn't trust you not to go too far. All you gotta do is knock me out.

[discardia]

That's... a considerable amount of force. And I'd have to do it with a pumpkin.

[ Sanji!!!! ]

A-and this isn't something you should be used to!!

[concasse]

But I trust Cardia-chwan with my liiiiife~!

[He's not gonna shut up about this.

Cardia just do it.

Do iiiiiit.

Slap him in the face with a pumpkin.

Look at his eager, pumpkin-punchable face]

[discardia]

... Who is your healer?

[ she's just going to wonder how her life has come to this. ]

[concasse]

... I, uh... can't admit to that one quite yet.

[HANDS IN THE AIR IN SURRENDER]

They'll help if I ask, but they might be shy about showing off their ability. So after I ask, what we might have to do is you... hit me, then leave, then the healer comes and does their job.

Does that sound alright?

[discardia]

[ Honestly, this sounds like a terrible idea. ]

Talk to your healer first. I can't do this if I don't know for certain that they'll agree to it.
