[Sanji's as much a warrior as he is a chef, and there's no stress relief like expressing yourself with your body instead of words. Being dead doesn't change that fundamental truth in his eyes. There's even a ghost of a smirk on his face as he replies, the first moment of amusement to cut through his flat expression.]
Ah, but you're an old bastard. Got it.
[Sounding neither surprised, intrigued, or all that caring, instead falling back on a blunt assessment of the facts. Given Yin Yu's age, it actually makes sense he'd take a much more pragmatic stance on the proceedings. When you're that old, it's not like there's gonna be anything left to shock you.
If there's anything that seems to pique his interest, however, it's that last part, and his expression turns grave again.]
If your role helped save people, maybe it wasn't glamorous, but it's something that served a purpose. [Saving people... giving them a chance to live for another tomorrow... that's always going to be Sanji's bottom line. But that said--] I get wanting to atone for it anyway.
