Luffy hovers around the kitchen as usual after Sanji had been back it's as if he refuses to let him out of his sight.
" Do you need something captain? "
It's only 1am and Sanji is gonna go to bed right after he's done with kneading the bread for their breakfast sandwiches and leaving it to rest.
"I wouldn't mind a snack" Luffy says entering the kitchen now, opening up the fridge like prepared food would magically appear but he's met with mostly raw or half prepped ingredients.
"Oh that looks fun, " Luffy diverts his attention to Sanji whose hands are covered in wet dough;
"Luffy no-" Sanji pushes his hands away with his elbow and points towards the sink.
Luffy pouts but obliges and washes his hands, sanji hands him a little bit of the dough to play with,
"Woah this feels like, hmm, "
"It's feels somewhat like ur skin right, "
"Yeah! It's stretchy, " Luffy lifts it to his mouth to taste it
"Luffy no it's not cooked, "
Too late. He's chewing at it like gum and swallows
" Ergh that's awful, "
"Well yes, it's not cooked, "
Sanji now understands why Luffy was probably never allowed to touch dough.
He makes 2 quick servings of pasta and sits down with luffy to eat who finishes it in record time and asks for more, stealing some from Sanji's plate.
" Luffy, "
Luffy stares and waits for Sanji to speak curious eyes yet Sanji knows it probably doesn't matter. Doesn't matter to Luffy at all but he should say it anyways,
He pulls out a cylinder from his jacket. It's black and heavy with a yellow 3 painted on it.
Luffy's eyes light up
"Oh! It's the cool superhero suit! It's from your family huh! Ah I wish I had one... What's wrong Sanji? "
Sanji had spaced out looking at the suit, millions of thoughts racing through his head barely registering Luffy's words as the call of his name pulls him out of it he responds,
" Nothing I just wanted to show you, and I. I've decided to use it if necessary, "
"No, " Luffy says simply, serious and determined.
"Why not, "
" I don't know. You don't seem happy about it. So. Don't, "
So simple, yet so right. He shouldn't have to use it if he doesn't want to. Reminds him of when luffy had decided to not listen about how to get to Laughtale
or how he had broken the eternal pose. It's because he didn't want it. He wasn't happy; even though it was easy to do so.
The raid suit would clearly make things easier, but does Sanji really want it?
"Well, I didn't ask you. I just wanted to let you know that I'll be using it, "
Luffy's eyes go droopy as he suddenly face plants on the desk, falling asleep from the exhaustion of the day, leaving sanji still wondering about the decision he's made.
