Unfortunately he's not that brutal. So he's going to catch sight of Sanji and quietly exit the kitchen.
End PC.
Just kidding, he's going to grab a blanket from somewhere in the castle and just move to place it over Sanji's shoulders, then quietly continue to make tea like he originally came to the kitchen to do.]
[Sanji isn't a light sleeper, per se, but there's always a part of him keeping track of what's going on outside his dreams, and the soft warmth of the blanket slowly pulls him back into reality. An eye pops open--
He freezes soon after, holding his breath like Jae-Ha might hear him -- then blows out a sigh on purpose because when the hell did he become such a coward?]
... Hey.
[Won't stop him from sounding super guilty, and looking to Jae-ha like he expects punishment]
Actually, I think I'd like to kick you. Zelos got a punch - but you actually had the nerve to cook me something and act like nothing was wrong. And then you killed my partner.
[... He feels himself smile tiredly before shaking his head, a lump in his throat]
I can't.
[...]
I thought about it, heh. Still kinda wanna just go with you.
Shit, it's not like I don't know what's waiting for me back home -- probably death -- but I can't run from the people who are ready to give anything to save me.
[He's so impossible to shake when he finds something that he wants.]
You know I don't exactly have anything I can easily leave behind either. I know almost exactly where I'm going back to... perhaps I might make a small change or two, since I've heard that's possible.
[that he sort of just let it all blow up in his face - jae-ha can't quite understand it. doesn't really know if he wants to. he and zelos and sanji all have their likenesses -
but at some point they stop.
jae-ha has almost no tolerance for betrayal. that's simply what gi-gan taught him]
... stuck between not wanting to force him and not wanting to see him end it, huh?
[idly
jae-ha can't help but notice how easy it was to fall back into this back and forth, discussing the matters of everyone else around them
... perhaps this is why he was never able to stop saying he considered sanji a friend]
[Tone implying Sanji considered it, just stealing Zelos away like a prize for his own good, ready to accept the man's hatred until maybe one day it would cool back into affection.
Sanji's fine with making hard choices. Look at his time spent in the castle.
But he can't stand betrayal anymore than Jae-Ha.]
... I just want him to be happy with whatever choice he goes for.
[Sounding fuckin heartbroken but that is how it goes sometimes.]

... for all intents and purposes, it looks genuine.]
Good morning, Chef.
no subject
You owe me a punch to the face.
[Someone tattled.]

... but we can do that when you aren't half-dead.
no subject
You say that shit like I'm not gonna feel half-dead for a while.
[A scoff. Then he stretches, though careful not to disrupt the blanket over his shoulders]
no subject
[Nonchalantly, as he pours Sanji a cup of tea.]
no subject
I can't.

But after.
When the fighting's over, and I'm a free dragon.
no subject
[Sniffing a bit? Shut up, everyone in this castle knows Sanji is just a softhearted fool.]
Fine, whatever. Do what you wish. We'll go sailing together once our shit is taken care of.
no subject
[Easily - with a smile as he takes a sip of the tea that he poured for himself. There's a happy, self-satisfied little hum.]
Shall we take Zelos with us? Is he going with you?
no subject
I don't know if he'll go with anyone.
[Sanji's voice has fallen back into its melancholy.]
He wants to die. And I don't know if I can convince him to live.
no subject
Is this how like you told me weeks ago that I knew him better than you did - and then the next week you ended up being horrifyingly wrong?
[He points it out - but also his expression goes serious.]
I don't know if I fully believe that he wants to die.
He might just be more nervous about the prospect of living - especially with everything he's done.
no subject
[That Sanji says seriously, because yes -- he knows his partner too well.]
It was tough on both of us realizing we were alike in that shitty way. That's why I'm nervous.
... I have my crew to set me straight, but Zelos kinda lost his by being too afraid. [The idiot.]
Not saying I won't try. I just... don't know what the answer's gonna be.

Keep talking like that and I'll have to reach for something stronger than tea.
