... So you can cook when you put your shitty mind to it.

[Sanji doesn't sound too surprised, or even put out by this discovery. Beau had a rough time but Sanji can't say Phoenix made out like a bandit, either.]

I'm just here for tea, so you're fine. Just clean up after yourself.

[slobjection]

Don't get too excited. I have one specialty.

[ and there's still a chance he can fuck it up!!! ]

Not hungry and no mouths to feed?

[concasse]

I'm on break for fifteen minutes.

[A huff... though Sanji uh, glances sideways, like he's trying to talk himself outta speaking, but:]

You... alright and everything?

[slobjection]

I'll have to count the seconds, then.

[ it's definitely spilling over fifteen minutes and the mess will be yell-worthy ]

Yeah.... still kicking and in one piece, so can't complain. [ .... ] You?

[concasse]

[Phoenix always here to do Sanji a solid and make sure his blood pressure is to the moon]

Oh, it's been years since anything's emotionally scarred me; I'll be alright.

[slobjection]

[ he's always here to "help" sanji stay energetic...... that's the right word for it, right. ]

You do seem like a tough nut to crack.

.... Everyone has their breaking point, though.

[concasse]

Oh sure.

Mine gets to be when I'm dead.

[Yikes Sanji]

[slobjection]

[ big yikes. ]

I don't want to see either of those things happen.

[concasse]

-- We're in a competition to murder each other and you're worried about me?

[Bruh]

Worry more about yourself.

[slobjection]

I'm a known worrywart..... nothing anyone can do about it.

[ so dramatic. ]

Besides, the "competition" is of no interest to me.

[ he's usually cagey but that bit he doesn't mind admitting. ]

[concasse]

So you're fine just letting the chips fall as they may, eh...

[No judgment in Sanji's voice. He's bemused, if anything, seeing as that is not a sentiment he hears often]

[slobjection]

I'd rather find a way to make it so that no one loses, personally.

[ he's one of those. ]

So let an old man worry, why don't you?

[concasse]

-- You're not that much older than me!

[sanji he is a whole decade + some change older than you]

Tch, fine. I don't need the concern but it's your choice if you wanna give yourself gray hairs.

[slobjection]

Oh, but I am.

[ he's so old sanji......... and sanji is definitely a baby. could be a perky teen sidekick, actually. ]

Glad you understand.
