[The Surgeon of Death reduced to treating paper cuts? Well, shit. Sanji is just going to snicker at that mental image the entire twenty minutes he has left to himself. That's like someone asking Sanji to microwave them chicken nuggets.
When Law arrives, Sanji kicks open the door with his toes, a steaming pot of creamy parmesan pasta in his hands. The smell of garlic is everywhere, and the table is set for two.]
[If he sounds like he's swooning, that's because he is. He is definitely swooning.]
There's no need to thank me yet again, dear lady! Your first is still a firm, unyielding lighthouse within my very soul! Just knowing you're still thinking about me is enough to make every second I've spent here worth while!
I'm Sanji, first rate cook of the sea, and I only said what I did because I wanted to. If that's kindness, I'll gladly be kind to you for all eternity.
[In direct contrast to her visible shyness, the sweet teen is met with Sanji's boisterous, too-big-for-his-face grin. All up in that phone camera's business.]
It's only natural, dear! Valentine's Day is a day for love, and every lady here deserves more love than she can handle! Of course that includes you! Treat those flowers well, and they may just shine as brightly as you!
[So cute, so cute! Aaaaah~ Seeing that smile on her face is even more soothing than a hot soak. It makes everything feel worth it, including that lame ass scuffle with Ivar.]
Anytime, Miss! If it means getting to know you, I'd happily strike out into a blinding snow storm or leap over an active volcano!
[It feels like it's been a while since he heard her voice. That's his fault. He must remedy this glaring oversight by heaping his love upon her tenfold all at once!]
Did you think I wouldn't send a bouquet filled to the brim with my tender passion on this divine day for devoted lovers?
[it has been a while, but she's terminally bad at peopleing. she runs and hides from most human interaction, which isn't always easy in a small town filled with so many people]
Well, I--I guess I hadn't considered it? 'Cause nobody does stuff like that for me.

[BECAUSE HE CAN'T ASK NICELY]

[Sanji is dead serious. Law knows him well enough by now, however, to find the hideous irony in the love cook’s words.]
no subject
right. then, if I asked your advice later, at dinner, you'd have something to give?
no subject
[That's not envy talking. It's... Um. Something else. Yeah.]
no subject
no subject
[Which means that, yes, he was already cooking for Law before the guy texted him.]
no subject
good, because I need to get out of here before i'm stuck cleaning up one more paper cut
[some people need to stop getting hurt also precisely twenty minutes later he's on Sanji's doorstep, punctual as ever like the total nerd he is]

No more paper cuts then?

augh, I forgot to mention video. this is video.
Is it? I wasn't aware that I'd made such an impression.
It's a pleasure to meet you officially, Sanji. My name is Margaery Tyrell, once Queen of the Seven kingdoms.
haha, video it is!
[He heard the word "once." He's decided to ignore it. He even offers her a bow. That's right, he bows at his own cellphone.]
video
Please, call me Margaery. It's only right as I am but another resident of Hadriel here.
[the bow is adorable. in response, she props up her own phone so it can see more of her and offers him a curtsey]
no subject
[He can't help but hug himself to contain his overflowing excitement. That curtsy was so fuckin' adorable, he's about to blow.]
no subject
[he does seem very excitable, but sweet. she now sits with her legs neatly crossed at the knee]
no subject
He doesn't say that. Instead, he smiles sweetly.]
Three o'clock snack. It's not anywhere near as meaningful as yours, but it fits. I guess I was always destined to become a chef.

I--I wish to thank you. For the Flowers. It was most kind.

I, um. I've never heard of Valentine's Day before. This is a tradition where you're from?

You gave me flowers! And I don't even know you! Thank you so much!
no subject
Anytime, Miss! If it means getting to know you, I'd happily strike out into a blinding snow storm or leap over an active volcano!
no subject
and she giggles at his words] Well, it won't be that hard to get to know me. My name's Tinya. What's yours?

I, uh. Thanks. For the flowers.
