( sanji lays out zoro's plan so precisely, so easily, that there's not anything zoro can say to combat it. from gaining Luffy's support to ensuring everyone achieves their dreams no matter what it takes, sanji reads him like a book. that shouldn't be a surprise, sanji knowing the core of how zoro works, how his mind operates, how he sees the world, and articulating it all with ease.

that might piss him off more, the casuality of it all. there's so much inside of zoro at this moment, he doesn't know how to stop it from boiling over. sanji isn't bothering with that same restraint, not bothering to keep his words inside, because zoro has once again driven him to action. the tight sensation around his neck from a collar pulled taut says that sanji is past the point of holding back.

if that's the case, so is zoro. )


You wouldn't forgive me so easily if it were the other way around. If I was the one who left you.

( past the point of no return, he's scrapping away all the top layers of their crew until it's come down to something as raw as 'you' and 'i,' neither of which feel as organic to him as 'us'.

zoro's faith in sanji is shaken, and he has doubts, and he's teetering on the edge of disillusionment, but he's not going to told he's absurd for that. 'the other way around' is impossible to fathom, but in a universe where it could happen, and that it does, zoro doubts sanji's faith wouldn't be just as debased, that he wouldn't spend just as much time debating his own uncertainty.

still, how many times are they going to have to have this same argument? they 'talked' about it on the phones, and then they fought over it, and now they're talking about it again. )


How can you talk about leaving and talk about knowing me in the same breath? If you knew me at all, you'd know this would be the only result!

( he shoves sanji away to give himself some room, and because he doesn't want sanji anywhere near him, and because he hates him. he follows that up with grabbing sanji's nice, fancy top with both hands and shaking him, just to show how much he doesn't want to be near him.

we all have someone that we hate so much, we just have to pull them closer. )


If you ever gave a shit, then say it, bastard! Say that I'm your crew and you need me like I need you! Otherwise, there's no point! There's no reason to belong to a crew if you aren't willing to believe in me!
