Stop fucking with us.

...Sanji?

[embracethewaves]

[...except you're a dumbass and left your communicator behind so you're not answering. NOT THAT SHE KNOWS THAT but after a while of not hearing a reply she's gonna get kind of worried]

[embracethewaves]

[...and by 'kind of' I mean 'extremely.' Lucky for her they finally dug themselves out of the Gohl house this morning, so HERE COMES THE WATERGIRL.]

[baratiesbest]

[And he'll just keep walking. Somewhere. Anywhere. Not really paying attention to his surroundings right now. This is really just too fucking much.]

[EPIC INTERVENTION also known as COMMENT LOG]

[dontcallmegol]

{The blond had made one very important mistake

[OSHI-- AN INTERVENTION]

[baratiesbest]

[To be completely honest Sanji didn't even realize that he wasn't alone in the kitchen, just grabbed his coat and made a beeline for the door. He wasn't thinking. Couldn't. Up until now he had been holding it together pretty well, doing what he could to keep himself and the ones around him relatively safe through the blizzard and he didn't even attempt to cross the town when the Gohl roof came down. This though... this was more than he could handle.

Two of them gone. Two, in the span of a day. Zoro had been there even longer than he had and Chopper---

No, he couldn't handle it. Had to get out, go somewhere, do something. Enough was enough, he'd finally reached his limit after fifteen months in this rotten city. Something had to be done.

Ace blocking his path hadn't been part of the picture and he froze in his tracks, meeting those dark, fierce eyes straight on. His voice was strained, laced with pure, unbridled fury. Better get out of the way, Ace or he'll make you move.]

Move.

[EFFING INTERVENTION IS RIGHT]

[dontcallmegol]

No.

{It was serious business time now blondie. If he wasn't allowed to go out there to save a life? You weren't leaving to freeze yourself to death in sorrow. Not that he understood just what the hell you were hoping to accomplish.

Let's address that shall we?}

What's going on?

{He was stern, hard in his tone, but it there was an underlying concern. Give him a damn good reason to move.}

[FFF GET OUT OF MY BROODING KTNX]

[baratiesbest]

Nothing.

[A damn lie if he ever saw one but this wasn't up for discussion now - hell, he could barely make sense of it himself let alone put it in words. Zoro was gone. Chopper too. And Nami, his beloved Nami-san had been brought straight to the jaws of hell after all this time. In the beginning he had missed her more than anything but as time passed he started to wish that she'd never show up. Yet here she was. And they were gone.

He shifted his weight, getting ready to fight his way out if that was what it took. A snarl, feral, desperate almost. ]

Move.

[perpetualstoic]

[Here, have a Yuki walking past you, smoking a cigarette.]

[baratiesbest]

[Oh hello stranger I might have seen but never talked to. Have a shoulder-bump while we're at it.]

Ah... sorry.

[Disoriented? Preoccupied? Kind of... really snappy? Yup. ]

[perpetualstoic]

[He makes a face, probably annoyed. But it's hard to tell with Yuki, since he's usually a crabass and he's had a terrible week.]

...

Watch where you're going next time then.

[baratiesbest]

Tch. Right back at you, asshole.

[Aaand he'll just keep going. Sorry man, no small talk today.]

[paincuresall]

[Just... this.]

[thiefcat]

Sanji-kun...?

[baratiesbest]

[Several hours later, once the idiot has cooled off enough and finally made his way back.]

Nami-san.

[thiefcat]

[Several hours later also means a very irate Nami.]

Sanji! Don't Nami-san me! Where did you go!?

[baratiesbest]

[Oh shit, he's still not used to that. Normally people don't really notice if you slip out for a while - big mistake, blondie. ]

Ah... just out for a walk. I lost track of time, that's all!
