[ Since Sanji decided to propose to him after literally just meeting him - maybe he encouraged it a bit, but it's not important - he hasn't seen the man. It's not that he necessarily expected Sanji to realise that the woman he proposed to is actually Gintoki, but he's still sort of surprised that he hasn't realised it. How many people with white hair and red eyes are there around here anyway? See, this is why the silhouette is so important! If he'd been allowed to just wear his own clothes, maybe it would have been obvious!
Anyway, it's been a while, but he happens to ... not run into Sanji, but pass him by while he's asking the citizens of Andovale about this mystery woman. And how is he meant to resist? ]
[ a lot had happened during their little trip to charm school — a lot — but amongst all the chaos and complicated incidents, sanji can very clearly remember his little proposal towards a very cute girl. the whole thing had been on a whim; the moment she'd assumed that he was proposing, sanji's lovestruck heart had spoken before his head could actually process it.
but as cute as she'd been, sanji had already decided he couldn't get married here, not while he's committed to returning to his crew at the end of all of this. leading her on with marriage — well, that's about the worst thing he could do to a woman! which is why he needed to find her and beg for her forgiveness while clearing up the misunderstanding.
except, no matter where he seemed to go, he couldn't actually find her. even as he spoke the name ginko to everyone he asked, no one had ever seemed to have heard of anyone called that.
he's frowning, lighting up a new cigarette now that the previous one has become nothing but a stub, before he's raising his gaze in seeing a familiar face. ]
Oh, it's you. [ he shrugs. ] A woman. I doubt you'd know her.
[ well, sanji had barely been giving him much attention, his mind preoccupied with his search and his gaze attentive to his cigarette, but he looks up with that sudden line of questioning, his curly brow furrowing with a scoff from his mouth. ]
Of course they do. I'm a gentleman. What, you sayin' you're a ladies man now?
You saying I ain't?! You know nothing about me! I bet this woman you're looking for ran away from you.
[ No, he's not sure why he's doing this. The point of this whole thing was to laugh at Sanji realising Ginko was a man all alone, and now he's just saying a bunch of crap instead. It's not like he actually cares. ]
That's a stupid question. You think I've seen everybody here? I can't assume just cause I haven't seen anyone else like that, that more people don't exist looking like that.
[ so what if they have a few similar features? it's a different person!!!! ]
Back home, there's a guy who's a really ugly version of me. So what if Ginko has something like that too?
[ if you're gonna insult his love life, you get ugly status, gintoki. ]
[Action] Hehehehehehe

Ah, you're looking for someone?

[ oi, oi, now that's absolutely uncalled for! he expects this kind of sass back from zoro, but no need to rub in his woman troubles! ]
What do you know!? This woman wants to marry me! She wouldn't run!
[ so much for trying to keep that on the down low. ]
no subject
No she doesn't! You think someone would agree to marry you in less than five minutes?
cries i didn't close my big font html 1/2.
[ who the hell does he think he is!? to be judging the way their romance had blossomed so spontaneously and ... and ............. ]
2/2.
Oi. How'd you know about that?
I just thought he was still shouting
'cause I'm Ginko, obviously.
[ Come on, man. ]
tbf ........ yeah
Eh? Oi, you think I'm stupid? You look nothing like her.
no subject
[ What do you mean nothing like her?? This is why it's an insult to take his yukata away from him. ]

Whatever. It's obvious Sanji already understands that he's telling the truth. After all, he knew exactly what happened. ]
I look better than you.
Think really hard about where you ran into Ginko, man. This ain't difficult.
