well, it's sanji, who is not someone belph is horribly unused to seeing after trauma, so belph will show up. he looks as he usually does, as if nothing had happened at all.]
Yep. Unfortunately, I couldn't get what I wanted so I just got something useless instead.
[...]
Glowstick, huh? Hikage didn't have one, as far as I know—he never mentioned it and didn't have anything like that on him last trial. But I don't know what he might've bought since then.
No kidding. Mine's good for defending myself, at least, but it kind of sucks that I can't make anything useful for... [he gestures vaguely] ... the actually important stuff.
Because he and Belph handle their problems too similarly for him to act bossy about the other's coping mechanisms. Maybe it makes them excellent teammates, but as far as friendship goes, Sanji finds himself... lacking.
He'll still clap Belph on the shoulder in solidarity, even knowing the other can't feel it.]
Find me when you're ready.
-- And there's some rum in the kitchen cabinets if you need any.
[honestly, for all that belph was trying to be alone, it does mean a lot that sanji came out to find him. there's not a lot of people who would go out of their way for someone as difficult as him.]

What's up?

I'll tell you what I found in the forest, unless you happened to see it yourself.

It's not a lot, but... [Rubbing at his neck, quietly.]

Well, anyway, the only thing me, Anaido, and Ash found was a shitty glowstick in a tree. Couldn't get it down, so we'll see how useful it is, but...
[Sigh]
Until we can examine it, I don't know how good of a lead it'll be.

[And an acknowledging nod at that second part]
Not that I knew him well, but he didn't seem the type to want to buy a glowstick...
[Though there's now a pause, and a frown:]
This shit's gonna become public knowledge eventually, but I gotta ask -- what was his team and power?

I'll bring it up tomorrow, but he was "Resisting a Rest". He could stay up during curfew.

I suspected already, but.
[Shaking his head because that's bullshit to dwell on later.]
Don't you just love how these shitty powers of ours are only half-useful? At least being invisible only came with perks.

... You feel up for a spar later?

Yeah. Sounds good.
