    Summary

    Sanji hated what he was. Trying his best to shape himself, or an image of himself, to be tender and sweet. Trying his best to give love. He gave so much, he didn’t have any left for himself. And for a long, long time now he was convinced, so sure of it, that nobody could ever truly care for him.
    The one and only person who ever did died when he was a child. And any hope of someone caring died with her.

    He loved his crew, he truly did. But still he felt inferior in every aspect. They’d be better off with a new cook. Someone who wasn’t a liability, who was beaten into submission for so long, he barely had a sense of self.

    The only thing that kept him going was the ocean, the promise of the hidden, mythical ocean, somewhere out there. But the sea had started calling for him in a different way a while back, more and more. Getting louder every day. He could barely look at it anymore.

    Any time he did he would imagine himself giving in – giving up – and embracing its calling. Embracing the sea, like he wished he could.
