[concasse]

[Hello, Luceti Residents.

Guess what? Someone turned Seventh Heaven inside out criminally early in the morning, meaning even the staff will be in for a surprise. There are tables and chairs grouped together in front of the restaurant, shielded from the sun by large umbrellas. That in itself is odd, but the real attention-grabber is how much food some of the tables are holding. Dinner platters, breakfast feasts, desserts, finger foods, and everything in-between - it's all right there, protected from bugs with see-through plastic covers. And right in front of this mouth-watering display is a sign:

Take What You Can Eat.

Really. There's even a stack of plates and silverware, along with some carry-home boxes in case anyone wants to shove their fridge full of leftovers. Dump the dirty plates in a bin off to the side; he his workers will get to it later. And should the gluttons of Luceti lay siege to the feast, no worries; Sanji's captain is Luffy, after all. He'll be replenishing the tables well into the afternoon, along with any other chefs who might be working that day.

Whether you see him inside the restaurant, bustling around the kitchen like a man possessed, or spot him outside restocking the food, everyone will find the Head Chef in a... really good mood for someone who took a few days off to recover from the trauma that is your AU self "dying". He's just all heart-filled smiles and affectionate ass-whooping, depending on your sex.

... Clearly he's gone mad. B|

And then later, journal announcement! Because why not:]

Oi, for anyone who didn't see -- [He turns his journal camera to the food display, sounding exceedingly pleased with himself.] Take what you can eat! There's plenty for everyone. If not, I'll have to make Luffy finish off the rest, and we wouldn't want that. [A-aha]

And for anyone who's interested, I'm looking for another waitress or two, maybe one more chef. [8D] Any help's appreciated, ladies~!

... And I suppose you other guys, too.

[It's a good day for some cookin; So come at him, bros.]

[concasse]

Nonsense~! Every lady deserves a moment to be waited upon~!

Fear not, Sayo-san, for I shall cover for you!

[memoryboxes]

Oh, if you're sure!

[... Huh. She picks up a plate nearby, suddenly interested.]

Oh! Is this...

[A BEAUTIFUL PLATE OF DANGO.]

[memoryboxes]

Is this a new recipe you've thought up, Sanji-san?? I've never seen anything quite like this around the kitchen!

[concasse]

...

Yep, new recipe. Give it a taste. I have a feeling you'll really like it.

[memoryboxes]

[Very well. She gives it a sample.

...

[memoryboxes]

....

[memoryboxes]

... Hm, it's okay.

[UNDERWHELMING REPLY WHAT]

The others'll just love it!

[TWILIGHT ZONE]

[concasse]

[You're a troll, Ashlee. B| Yes I put this in the brackets, what of it.]

... Sayo-san, are you feeling alright?

[memoryboxes]

Oh, me? I feel just fine! Why do you ask?

[She'll go ahead and chew happily on a drumstick in a very neat napkin, though.]

[concasse]

... No, nevermind.

[He still peers at her closely, however] You like drumsticks, eh?

[memoryboxes]

[a little laugh]

Is that what this is called? It's such an interesting taste. What is a 'drumstick'?

[concasse]

Chicken, in this case. It refers to the thigh of an animal. You get a lot of darker meat there.

[memoryboxes]

Oh...! I've never heard of chicken before; it's very tasty, thank you!

[concasse]

[he nearly asks if she's sure, but at the last second diverts into a different question.]

Oi, then what type of meat do you usually eat, Sayo-san?

[memoryboxes]

Oh, fish! Lots of fish, typically with rice. I've found a lot of different dishes to make fish with in a book, so I've been experimenting sometimes.

[concasse]

That so? Does this mean I should be promoting you to chef?

[memoryboxes]

M-me?? As a chef? Oh, no, no, I wouldn't be any good as one. I'm much too forgetful! You know that!

[concasse]

But Sayo-san's food would be absolutely delicious~!!

[memoryboxes]

Ah... maybe...

[You flatterer, you]

I don't know very many recipes, though...

[concasse]

[Sanji is good at his job. ;D]

That's what writing them down is for. Sometimes the best kept knowledge are the ones you jot down.

[memoryboxes]

[A small smile.]

Well... I suppose I could help out a little with cooking. It could be good for my mind.

[:|a]

Oh! Um, I think someone wanted you in the kitchen, Sanji-san! I'm not sure who they were, but it was probably something important.

[Seriously, you should hop to that.]

[concasse]

[Ha, score. Obviously she'll still be performing her usual duties, but Sanji personally thinks a little cooking now and then will be good for her.

He feints light surprise at this mention of a person needing him.] Oh? You see what they looked like?

[memoryboxes]

Oh! He had black hair, and he said he was going to take the rest of the food from the refrigerator...?

[this is not a fib

not at all

i don't have plans

shhhh]

[concasse]

[... If it's who Sanji thinks it is...]

Excuse me, Sayo-san~! [Your boss needs to go curb-stomp some ass]

1/?

[memoryboxes]

Alright!
