[If someone was going to tell Sabo about Ace having been here, it sure has hell won't be Sanji. It's not his place, first of all, but he honestly doesn't think there's much point in dwelling on the past. On what could have been, if the timing had just been a little different.
It's better, now, to simply clink his glass gently against Sabo's before swirling the alcohol in it around once, twice, before finally taking a small sip. Leaving a moment of silence and respect hanging in the air between them.
Finally, though, the silence needs to be broken. And it needs to be broken with the thing Sanji initially came here to talk about.]
[Well it doesn't seem like it would be anything big.. granted.. he's always the type to help out anyone who's
part of Luffy's crew or any of his friends. Any friend of Luffy's is going to be a friend of his. He gulps down the drink in the glass that Sanji had handed to him.
He then puts down the now empty glass, and looks up at the other Blond noticing the calm but serious expression he has while swiveling the wine glass of his. Sabo shoves a hand in one of his pockets, while the other still clutches onto the stem of his own wine glass. ]
[There's another moment of silence. Another lull broken only by the sound of Sanji inhaling and exhaling a breath of smoke.]
I meant it when I said to forget what that kid told you. [Finally, he turns to look at Sabo, though honestly he just looks tired, rather than any sort of serious or threatening.] Luffy won't give enough of a shit to ask, but Nami-san might. And what that kid said would only going to make things worse for her.
What things? What do you mean? [He asks for clarification, as if he wanted to confirm what he meant. No kid should be overlooked, and regardless of what he says, the intention was different.
He then stares at the other blond, in a serious expression. While he should be more considerable, he chooses not to, being more concerned over the matter himself.]
It's unlikely Luffy will ask but as someone who appreciates his friends and family... I'd rather you be more honest with him than hide it.
[He's had the experience to hide something huge himself as a kid....mainly that he came from a noble family. It was after some time when Luffy and Ace find out he ran away that he admits to it. He knows that if he cares about his brother that much, it's best not to keep any secrets.]
The amount of love he puts into the people he cares for, family.. friends.. nakama..it's irreplacable. You should know this, as his crewmate.
