That's not what I meant. If I was mad about that, I could have sent him a letter about it weeks ago. It's natural I was rejected, being the way I am. [Ah, classic Ogata.]
[YELPS IN SURPRISE. And he actually tries to squirm out of his grasp this time because he's regained some stamina. Unfortunately, Sanji is still stronger than him]
[He honestly considers fleeing over the top of the shelf but remembers how much effort it took to get this high. So he frowns but eventually;]
Doesn't it seem strange to you for him to have become so friendly with the woman who killed me, if he actually cared? [He's jealous. Of a platonic friendship the guy who turned him down has.]
[Ogata folds his arms across his chest. Gingerly. he has injuries on his chest as well as his stomach.]
I don't know what you expect me to say. [Because he's certainly not going to say "You're right, Sanji, I was being irrational and will stop now." Sanji probably knows this deep down.]
Say? I don't expect anything on that shitty front.
But I do expect you to not waste time on a grudge that's gonna go nowhere.
[Sure, they're Ogata's letters, he can do what he wants, but Sanji has a game to keep into consideration. For better or worse, he's positioned himself at the other's babysitter (within tolerance)]
What are you looking for, anyway? Beau-chan to freak out? Anaido to feel remorse? Or to just hate you like you think everyone's gonna.

[Ah, classic Ogata.]
I just don't like how he's behaving lately.
no subject
Well. Sanji doesn't really like to do things in halves, so...]
Explain.
[Guess he's playing therapist to a psycho cat]
no subject
[Sanji when have you ever had a normal conversation with Ogata?]
no subject
grabs his fuckin foot again
and starts slowly pulling Ogata closer]
Explain, shithead.
no subject
Fine! Let go of my leg and I'll tell you!
[GOD]

Be grateful I'm trying really hard not to yell at you right now.
no subject
You're the one who forced me to tell you.

[And goddamn does Sanji try to be patient, and firm, and a little more pleasant than Ogata probably deserves, but--]
Beau-chan didn't want to be put in that position in the first place, right? And your ass knows that. Anaido knows it, too, I bet.
Besides, he's not the blindingly loyal type, so what reason has he got to be mad at her rather than this shitty camp?
[Sanji knows love is blind and jealousy is green, but this is... not gonna help Ogata.]

[Because he is. Just all the time, constantly.
He sighs and lets his head fall to rest on his knees.]
If they'd just hated me in the first place like everyone else none of this would be a problem.
