[.......Wait what?

Masaomi wakes up on the 19th (post event), and starts his day as normal (well aside from waking up a bit later than normal) until he realizes WAIT, WHAT about two or three different things all at once. He promptly gives up any semblance of a normal morning, instead opens his journal and writes/draws the following entry:]


[image not drawn by me, found on image search]

What can any of you tell me about this [arrow up to the Luffy sketch] guy?

Is he suave?

[concasse]

[Oh wait back up.

This is Kida? Sanji's never met the teen properly, but he's heard his... mating rituals over the journey. They annoy the hell out of the chef - partly because it sounds like himself if amped to 20.]

Alright then, Kida - what the hell do you got against my captain?

[generalflirt]

[Cap...tain... Oh fuck his life]

Nothing, nothing! [Yet. By his own history this reaction is actually showing remarkable restraint. Just ask Shuri.] I'm just curious. For... this and that of reasons.

[concasse]

Hn.

Rest at ease, then. That rubber idiot's got his own charm, but he's as suave as a brick.

[generalflirt]

...Your story is changing.

[concasse]

Oh yeah, about that.

I was shitting with you, kid.

Now -- [pleasant tones] This wouldn't have anything to do with the last experiment, would it?

[generalflirt]

Ma---maaah, I guess you might put it like that?

[Sheepishly. He's actually a little pissed, but the pleasant tone pulls him in, warily]

[concasse]

I see. [A pause. A long one. Someone's mind is working overtime]

And if I were to put it like that, it'd make sense this doesn't just involve Luffy... but the young lady he was involved with at the time.

[generalflirt]

Iiiiii.... I am not at liberty to. Well, say.

[FUCK ME]

[Private]

[concasse]

[Oh look, a private filter. 8D!]

Uh-huh... so you're not at liberty to say you fancy a girl named Katara then?

[He's just curious! Maybe he's dead wrong and Kida makes a habit of playing the evasive game.]

Feel free to let me know if I'm projecting too much.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

[...Filter. Direct question. He sheepishly looks at the book, somehow feeling oddly nervous to be called out like this. He sighs, and then...] I'm not at liberty to say for her benefit, I'm afraid!

[Private]

[concasse]

"Her benefit"...

Interesting choice of words. [Sanji's not sure what that means, either]

But alright, you're keeping this close to your chest.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Yes! Close to my chest and dear to my heart, I assure you! A secret crush, you might even say!

[Which is now the worst kept secret ever]

[Private]

[concasse]

Aaah, young love then~! No wonder you asked about Luffy.

Don't worry; he's not the one you need to watch out for.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Oh! Well that's reassuring, coming from his nakama?!

[Private]

[concasse]

That'd be me.

Don't think I ever introduced myself, though.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Aaaah, no, you did not.

[But he does eat out sometimes, so he vaguely recognizes the voice.]

[Private] 1/2

[concasse]

In that case...

Sanji, chef of the Straw Hat pirates, owner of Seventh Heaven--

[Private]

[concasse]

And a very close, long-time friend of Katara-chan's, at your service.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Oooooh... Is that how it is?

[Private]

[concasse]

Very much so. She's like family to me.

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Oh hooo, Sokka-kun must be pleased to have backup.

[Private]

[concasse]

[Sanji arches a brow] Sokka knows about this too? [He's rather surprised, to be honest]

[Private]

[generalflirt]

Eeeeh. You said you were family, I just decided I ought to include him.

[Private]

[concasse]

You can include him, if you want. [Ouch, Sanji. But it's the truth. Sokka's a good guy, and Sanji would like to think they're friendly with each other now... but it's certainly nothing familial. He sees no point in hiding that]

1/2
