{The video is jarred on with a clatter. The very edge of the left side of the screen is covered by Ace's hand. It's dark but you can see through it to the wide-eyed and frightened look on the pirates face, he seems to be on his hands and knees. He's wheezing as if unable to breath, his skin is pale and he's broken a sweat. He reaches a shaky hand

He couldn't answer his older brother, he was too busy trying to wet his dry throat and find his voice. He curled in on himself, content to lay over the cool floor and get his bearings. It felt so... real. The pain... everything burned all over again. He couldn't breath, like someone had wrapped his heart and lungs in fire. He couldn't even scream.
But it wasn't nearly that bad when it had actually happened. He should have known better but all he felt was panic and pain. He couldn't think straight to save his life. He frowned, staring at the floor, trying to hold himself together. Finally finding his voice, though it came out strained and raspy from gasping in air.}...it was so real. It was like I was dying all over ( ... )

S'okay, sorry for the confusion!
Also, you and I need to plot things sometime :|a I think our boys need to have a chat about how close they used to be. Cause since Sanji arrived, there would have been something almost noticeably sad under those smiles, or whenever he talked to the man. Ace has been kinda quiet and hanging out in the background anyway, but he may be just a tad dodgy around Sanji, kind of avoiding him. It hurts to be forgotten :< But he's trying to hide that fact and go on like nothing's wrong, he's just failing a little.
