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.]
Sanji!
[It's bright and early and Ion's already waiting for him in the kitchen, a book from the library held in his hands. He turns it around and holds up what he's looking at: it's information about different cooking knives and their functions.]
I didn't realize there are so many!
[A far cry from their last conversation, he seems to be in very chipper spirits.]

-- Ion?
[Holy hell, Sanji did not expect such an early morning greeting, no matter what plans they had made. It takes a couple rounds of blinking before he finally smirks and trails his way to the coffee pot]
Yeah, there are, aren't they? There's standard knifes that'll carry you through most cooking, but a lot of specialty ones, too -- like shit for carving, detail work, the like...

It's really exciting!
[Exciting is a strange word to use, but when Ion turns the book back around, he can't stop smiling as he runs his hand down the page.]
And there's a different way of cutting with each of them, too, isn't there? There's really so much to learn!
[He seems to remember himself, then, and his head snaps back up.]
And good morning!

Great!
[He closes the book, knowing that ultimately, the best way to learn is through first-hand experience. But he can read the room, so he isn't going to start begging Sanji to start teaching him immediately, without preamble. Please drink your coffee.]
Natsuo and I decided to throw a party tomorrow, so I want to try and make some snacks for it!

Did you two?
[Smiling more widely at that, it's a good idea and Sanji obviously approves.
(despite some small reservations that he will kindly keep off his face for now)]
We'll get a list of foods you can make by yourself, then.
[MMM COFFEE? COFFEE! Draining half the cup in one go, yes it is scalding, Sanji is just that heat efficient]

[He totally loses his train of thought as he watches Sanji apparently drink pure hellfire? Oh my god?]
Thank you! That would be really helpful!
[Hugging the book to his chest, Ion looks bashful.]
A sleepover at the observatory...I hope you and Zelos will consider joining us.

I'd be happy to see him either way. It wouldn't be right to exclude any of my friends!
[Zelos is so fucking mean to him but here we are, slutty Luke.]
[Zelos is so fucking mean to him but here we are, slutty Luke.]
[DID HE JUST USE THE WORD "FRIEND".
God, Sanji starts laughing]
Well first, imma need you to gimme a list of all the times he was an ass to you so I can kick him.
[SANJI KNOWS HIS PARTNER, OKAY?]
Anyway, we can get started... you got anything in mind you wanna eat?

He sneezed on me once, but other than that, he's been very friendly! We've had some really thoughtful conversations.
[This is only true from Ion's beautifully blessed perspective, honestly. Zelos has gone on record that he's purposefully been bullying him and yet, here we are. Ion looks sheepish.]
Pancakes?

Edited (I decided "super nice" didn't sound enough like Ion rip) 2018-07-17 23:13 (UTC)
[So Sanji is kicking Zelos three times to compensate for the fact that Ion is baby Jesus.
Got it.]
Oi, pancakes are a good pick. Won't require a knife, really, but we can work on that skill later.
[downing the rest of his coffee, now's not the time to savor it. He places the cup in the sink and then puts his hands on his hips]
Alright, let's get started. Get a large bowl and a medium-sized pan first.
Got it.]

Okay!
[He just really, wants pancakes, honestly. Let the pope eat pancakes.
But he gets what Sanji asks for, bringing them forward.]

[I missed Tuesday because I'm a punk, but we can assume there was just more cooking lessons and shit happening. And Wednesday was being gay over ghosts, so, this is where we are. Ion has something other than food in mind right now, so when he finds Sanji he beckons him over.]
Do you have some time to come with me?
Do you have some time to come with me?
Good. Next, put the pan on the stove at medium-high heat. Pour a bit of olive oil so you coat the entire pan -- but not too much, you don't want oily pancakes.
[He's going to be pretty hands off for now, letting Ion struggle through the process of cooking. Best way to learn in his opinion]

[The week is slowly but surely... not being kind to Sanji for some reason. His expression remains either upbeat or neutral, but there's a growing paleness to his complexion, like he's not getting enough sleep.
Probably not that strange. They are in a murder castle, after all.
For Ion, however, he'll spare a smile and a nod, stretching out his limbs before jogging over]
'Course. Where are we going?

[Ion spends...definitely way longer than he probably needs to trying to figure out how to operate the stove. He can't seem to decide what's medium, what's medium-high, and what's plain high. But he doesn't want to have to rely on Sanji's expertise too much, so he finally settles on a flame size before turning back around again.]
I'm ready for the next step!
I'm ready for the next step!
I promised you a concert.
[And he doesn't intend on letting the opportunity slip between his fingers.]
...you seem like you could use an uplifting song or two right now.
[His smile as easy as ever, he leads the way to the Music Hall.]

[Ugh Ion is precious, when is Sanji allowed to kidnap him back to One Piece world???]
Good, next the ingredients.
[... Okay so Sanji told himself he wouldn't help BUT he does decide to interject a little by walking over to a drawer and pulling out the measuring utensils -- specifically a cup, a half cup, a tablespoon, a teaspoon, and a half teaspoon]
You go grab the flour, sugar, baking powder, the milk, one egg, and some butter. Got all that?

Yes!
[He mouths the ingredients under his breath as he pulls them out from the fridge and their respective cubbies. He tries to get them all in one armload, but he has to give up and make three separate trips. It's fine. He places them each down by the measuring utensils.]

The harp, the harpsichord, and a couple others with passing proficiency...but the harp is my favorite.
[It doesn't take them too long to get there, even though Ion probably seems a little tired just by walking all the way there (Great). It's fine though, because he can sit down with the harp.]
It slipped my mind for a little while. But, ah, are there any kind of songs you like in particular?

[Sanji is just pleased that he correctly held onto that tiny detail, and once Ion is seated, Sanji will find himself a chair, scooting it close to the other boy.]
... Why not gimme something from your world?
[Something unfamiliar, that can't hurt him.]

[Can't it, though? So, I've looked for harp covers for Abyss songs before and have come up with nothing so we're going to do some nice Pretending. Anyway this is fittingly close and at least has some harp in it, so that's what we're going with to start.]
This one always made me feel peaceful.
[His eyes close halfway as his fingers find their place against the strings. It's not surprising that he chose something so melodic and almost spiritual, somehow. They don't need words, but it's easy to talk while he plays, at least.]
