Week 6 Catchall with Sanji
[Hi Ion's going to be roughly attached to Sanji at the hip whenever he gets the chance to be.]
[Ion can't help himself from looking bashful. He's looking at all the different things he pulled, confused.]
What happened with Varian?
What happened with Varian?
He took everything to the counter at once.
[SIGH]
I get the temptation to rush, but not only is that shit dangerous, cooking is a process. If you rush through one step, you're likely to rush through another, and the food won't be an accurate reflection of your intent.
[Sanji it's just pancakes, chill a little.]

[Spiritual... is a word for it, Sanji thinks, and without speaking for a while, lets the tranquility of the music wash over him.
Pirates and sailors? They're a superstitious bunch, but mostly lack reverence for anything that isn't their lady sea. And their songs are more loud, bombastic, clapping and stomping so hard the wood of the ship creaks with them.
He's never really heard music like this before.]
It's beautiful...

I'm glad you like it. Most of the songs I know are hymns from the Church.
[As the song ends, he transitions into a collection of incomplete (since Plot, not that it makes it sound less beautiful) hymns, without the accompanying vocals.]
Regardless of belief, they've always held a sort of nostalgia for me. When I feel like I've lost control of the things around me, this sort of music makes it a little easier to find the ground beneath one's feet.

I see!
[Don't chill. He, too, will be taking this incredibly seriously.]
I'd like to put care and consideration into everything that you take the time to teach me!
[Food and feelings, etc.]
That way, they'll taste like the joy that I have in my heart!
[Wow, gay.]

You must be really homesick.
[Okay "grounded" was a bad term to use with a pirate, he's picking up on that now, and it makes him smile sheepishly, but. It makes him pause, still.]
I can't recall any sounds about the ocean. Most of the time I've spent on ships, they were battleships, and I was stuck inside.
[Sometimes kidnapped! Not important.]
I'd like to play something that would feel a bit more nostalgic for you, if I could think of something. Perhaps that way, I could give you some peace of mind.

...Right.
[Oh. Ion's fingers hit a wrong chord, the music disrupted. He stills the strings...and has to say it.]
I'm sorry.
[He feels a knot forming in his throat, and looks from Sanji to the instrument.]
Something else, then.

...could I ask you something?
[Sanji doesn't seem to have any regrets--both indicated by his voice as well as his words, but still, a thought nags at him.]

If you had one wish, right now--catches aside--knowing what you know about yourself and with everything else that's happened...how would you use it?
[He plucks a few soft strings.]
On yourself? On someone else from home? On someone else here? On more information about the war and how to win it?

[There’s a pause, and then Ion laughs under his breath.]
I see.
[He smiles softly, but the look brightens.]
You’re a lot smarter than I am.
I see.
[He smiles softly, but the look brightens.]
You’re a lot smarter than I am.
[Detective Sanji, on the case.]
Oh, don’t worry. If was just a thought. I don’t have any wishes to spend.
[He pauses, leaning back in his seat.]
It’s just interesting the different way that we all think. I wonder if the Crafters took this into consideration when they chose us, and gave us the titles and roles that they did.

Use it on someone else.
[He doesn’t need to think about it, either.]
Someone who might be hurting.
[His smile turns shy.]
Not very logical. I hadn’t even thought that it might amount to nothing, to make a wish like that.

No, that's a fine wish.
I think of it this way -- you need people who are willing to make those small wishes, and those who want the big shit. Covers all bases.
Me wanting everyone to get the best ending possible won't mean shit if they're battered and broken at the war's end, y'know?

[Ion nods, and some of his apparent sadnsss fades from his smile.]
I’d like it if, at the end of all this, we can be sure that we have something happy waiting.

[That’s one thought they have in common, go figure!]
Of course. I don’t have any doubts.
[Ion begins to play another song, something a bit less demure, which I’d link but I’m mobile and lazy at the moment.]
Sorry if my curiosity worried you.
