Well.
That's one way to get Veronica to put down her bottle, placing it on the floor before she... hesitantly places a hand on Sanji's shoulder, trying to be comforting.]
... I'm sorry, Sanji. [She is. She really is.] We'll get through this and Ion will be back with us in no time at all. I promise. I... I don't know what he got in exchange for offering the Crafters his life like that, but we're going to bring him back. So... Please don't beat up yourself over this.

Thank you, Veronica-chan. I'll keep it together.
