1/2 I think baratiesbest November 16 2009, 23:12:30 UTC
[OWFUCK. Is that any way to greet your long lost son?!

...actually I kind of prefer this over the alternative. That hit connects right where it should, sending the blond flying. Just like old times, ey?]

yeah, 1/2 sounds about right baratiesbest November 16 2009, 23:15:37 UTC
[Aaand he pushes himself back on his feet, brushing the dirt of his clothes like nothing out of the ordinary happened. It's good to see you again, shitty old man.]

Oi... what the hell are you doing here?

[Sorry, you weren't getting a tearful reunion and he'd never admit that he cried when you left. EVER. NOT TILL HE DIED WHICH HE WOULDN'T DO IN 100 YEARS.

Besides, it feels kind of good to knock his son about. It just wasn't the same with the crew on the Baratie.

He watches the blond get up, arms crossed over his chest and there's just an inkling of pride hidden in his eyes. The boy had grown into a man, it really was good to see him.}

I don't really know myself.

I could say the same about you. Shouldn't you be on the Grand Line by now brat?

[It feels pretty good to get knocked around, if he has to be perfectly honest. Not that he'll ever admit to it in a million years but... yeah. Much better than any tearfilled reunion could ever be, especially with this geezer. Too weird. ]

I was, before these shitty scientists saw fit to drag me here.

[Man, this feels kind of awkward. Zeff is the last person he'd ever expect to meet in this hellhole and yet there he is. The blond shifts his weight a little, just slightly uncomfortable with the situation.]

So... everything alright at the restaurant?

So you made it huh? I can sort of tell. It chews you up and spits you out, making you into a real man.

[He raised a masochist, go figure.]

Scientists? And they saw fit to drag me here, in the middle of our lunch rush to top it off. I may have to find these 'scientists' myself and personally thank them.

[...]

Everything is fine. I told you we never needed you to begin with. In fact, I'd venture to say business is much better now that people aren't subject to that slop you called food. Let alone your shitty attitude.

[It was a blatant lie, the Baratie just wasn't the same without Sanji to stir up trouble. It just seemed so...normal, peaceful even. Painfully boring is what was. But he couldn't get in the way of Sanji's dream. And perhaps that's why his blood began to boil at the thought that these 'scientists' stole that from him.]

Got all the way past Mock Town.

[Can you blame him, with that upbringing? Pain is just a different expression of love in this family. It takes him a second or two before he spots that compliment, eyes widening slightly as the realization hits - did he just..? Damn.]

Good luck with that, these bastards aren't exactly famous for their public appearances. And with your shitty customer skills I don't think they'd make an exception.

[Throwing stones in a glass house? Wouldn't dream of it. He tenses up a little at the next part, feeling that familiar frustrated anger well up inside him - but in the end he does nothing more than scoff. Shows just how much he's grown, doesn't it? Not to mention that sneaking suspicion that this is just as much a shitty lie as their last little performance before he left the Baratie.]

Tch! Isn't that fucking fantastic... lucky for you that I'm not coming back anytime soon.
