perfect day ❤️‍🔥

the scene was all set, @thievishcat.bsky.social 's birthday party was ready to go. a small corner of the beach just by the water was set up with firewood and stone. some string lights and paper lanterns to set the mood. and the main event, the barbecue-- meat and fish all marinated and +

Ace nods in understanding, smiling softly at her when he catches her gaze. "Right. . and uhh I do cook sometimes yeah. Nothing fancy, but it does the job. ." He smiles a little wider now, "I'm used to cooking for a huge group so, if you and your friends ever have a barbecue, I'm your guy~" +

Truthfully, her hair was her trump card. "I was going to live on campus, but they had no free rooms anymore. So me, and two friends of mine moved in a flat that's close by."

Oh but the solitary barista was still here. As was the coffee shop. And unfortunately the couple sucking face in the middle of the cafe were also situated right in front of his eyes. He'd been watching them out of the corner of his eye for a while. @mormohistoria.bsky.social was a regular here +

the little coffee shop with its solitary barista was gone.

( pursing his lips hard in embarrassment, he rolls his eyes a little ) Listen. She's fine. Her blood pressure is up cause of all the smoking. Probably. ( ace grimaces slightly at the thought of seeing her horrified face again. it was just shorts! it wasn't like they were especially short either +

— god. you almost sent mrs. larson’s blood pressure up the first time you showed up dressed for a sleepover. ( if her previous lapse is disregarded, sanji is well versed in hiding her fatigue. then here comes surfer boy... )

He hoped he didn't look visibly relieved. It was tough to make or keep friends when everyone could afford to hang out in expensive places. She seemed nice, and pretty. Her red hair, distracting. "Mm, I like it. I like most kinds of food. . Lead the way Nami--" Ace gives her a small blink +

Nami.@thievishcat.bsky.social · 2y ago

Do you like Wano cuisine?”

Ace! Nice t'meetcha Sanji ( He leans back against the counter a safe distance away from where he's working ) Is the restaurant closed right now ? Where is everybody-- should I be hidin from your boss ? ( A deep chuckle sounds in his throat at the thought, clearly very nonchalant about +

( nearly jumping out of her skin, blonde hair whips around in a flurry as she squints up at the person who startled her. ) geez, i thought everyone left... can i help you?

( he catches it immediately, a warm smile growing on his lips. he leans back on the counter a bit, hands folded in front of him, before scooting closer to him ) my head's tellin me to be a lil wary of a stranger who offers to bake a whole pie for me right outta the bat. . but-- that won't be a +

[Biting his lip, gaze trailing over him for a moment before Sanji turned to start gathering ingredients.] I can work with that. I like a man who can voice what he wants.

"Oh sorry! Ace-- my name's Ace. Nice to meet you Nami-- and sure, I can grab lunch with you. . " He gives her a soft smile, trying not to show too much hesitation. "You know a decent place? Not too fancy-- wallet's a lil light right now"

Nami.@thievishcat.bsky.social · 2y ago

due to his lack of sleep, she could not help but chortle softly. “Just don’t forget to put on some shoes, your feet will be grateful.” She teased. “By the way, I was going to grab something for lunch, if you want to join.”

would you now, sounds cute

The cream is the most important part, have to make sure everything has been taken care of enough that the cream slides in and coats it nicely. I do believe I have everything I need for it.

guy, who showed up with no pants?” She teased with a playful smile. “I remember you! But I forgot your name. I’m Nami, by the way. It’s nice to officially meet you now.” She extended her hand to shake his.

Of course, there’s no way I would ever let someone starve. My pies are the best, you’ll be licking your lips and thanking me. Perhaps I’ll make you one of each ?

"yeah! my stomach won't leave me alone, heh-- it's a real pain in my ass", he smiles at her some more then squints, tilting his head, "have i seen you in class. . one of my electives i think--"

Nami.@thievishcat.bsky.social · 2y ago

an athlete, clearly…and apart from his charm and humor, he was really cute.

he smiles back easily before holding up a hand and counting on his fingers- "eggs, potato, butter on bread, chicken, bacon, some leftover pasta, uhh-- there was yam and mango and watermelon too"

Nami.@thievishcat.bsky.social · 2y ago

She smiled, amused at the guy’s blatant honestly. “And that huge breakfast, what did it consist of?”

( nodding a bit at her, though a frown and a pout clouds his features ) i'm just hungry again-- i had a huge breakfast man-- ugh

Nami.@thievishcat.bsky.social · 2y ago

“You okay?” Nami inquired, eyeing the other through curious lenses.

that sounds s o good my man, could you spare one for me ! i'll pay you ! after i get paid. . i mean so like, in a week ? ish what other kinds of cream pies are available, you sound like a professional cream pie guy
