Title: Any Minute
Pairing: Sanji + Zeff
Rating: G
Words: 151
Notes: I don't think I've ever written these two... and well, it's not -really- a pairing. But I think I kinda like it anyway... *shrugs* Read for yourself.

By all rights, he should have already been dead. Hair brittle and tangled, paper-thin skin, cheeks so sunken in one could almost see the outlines of each tooth. And though he only wanted to lie down and sleep, to sleep until he wasn't hungry anymore, he knew he wouldn't. Couldn't. That nasty old man was still alive. And Sanji wouldn't, couldn't let him win. He was determined, despite the haze of hunger and exhaustion that doubled his vision, to be the first to see the ship. The ship that would save them.

And then he would become the best cook on the ocean. Better than some stinking pirate. Meat and soup and bread and fish and fruit and he'd make the shitty geezer fat and lazy again.

Sanji forced his bleary, sunken gaze from the old man’s remaining leg and out instead to the sun-bright horizon. Any minute now… any minute.

urgh. and nicely done. the chibi-Sanji story is just so dang disturbing...(and I hope it's not a pairing fic, because, uh, father figure, Oedipus much?...but it's a great relationship, and well-played here.)

X3 Sankyuu. Yeah... so many people have disturbing pasts in OP...

btw, I hope you don't mind me friending you, I went to glance in your journal and liked what I saw, so. yep. *shrug* PLUS, I --finally-- got your handle. I am so slow sometimes. It's sad, because that's one of my favorite Python sketches of all time. I used to go around reciting it with a couple of my friends way back in high school *snickers*. I even did a Japanese version of it for a skit for Japanese class. Now that was... odd. ^^;;;

Sanji's story isn't the angstist backstory in anime, or even in OP, but it's way up there in terms of "just not right". I'm dying to know what the American censors will do to it (probably just leave the whole ep on the cutting room floor, even tho' I bet there isn't *actually* a rule against starving children...)

*laughs* in my case it was my college roommie and me, we used to do the parrot sketch and the argument sketch at the drop of a hat. not in Japanese, tho' - that must have been something.
and friend away - not much going on there but hopeless fangirling, which is always more fun with company.!

*chuckles* I dunno, man. This may not be FUNi on KidsWB, but there seemed to be a rule against small children /crying profusely/. (Waterfall of tears digitally painted out.)

So, who knows? Starving children may well be a no-go.

I can tell you one thing--Sanji's certainly not going to be a compulsive smoker anymore.

.... *cries*

This is probably the last thing I expected, and the surprise is appreciated.

Very nicely done.

-k.
