He'll meet Robin soon, for now, have a spazzy kid in need of MORAL GUIDENCE or at least a snack jackbotsattack June 26 2010, 00:41:59 UTC

Jack had hit a snag with the robots, one that he probably wouldn't be able to work out unless that Bleeker kid came through on the parts. In the meantime, he had decided to start work on Lucy's lasers, but for designing he always liked to have some sugar in his system. Of course, there weren't any junk food in his room, so he had decided to sneak into the kitchen in search of some.

It was just his luck that the cook was in there.

"Uuuuh," he began intelligently. "Any chance a guy can get a snack around here?"

AWESOME \o/ man ilu for apping this guy love_hurricane June 26 2010, 00:49:30 UTC

Sanji's cheerful disposition was slightly dented at the appearance of this apparently highly intellectual specimen. He obligingly arched his eyebrow as non-commitally as he could.

"Depends if you ask nicely. What're you hungry for?"

*basks in love* He's SO much fun. ^^ jackbotsattack June 26 2010, 01:01:06 UTC

Nice? Tch. Jack Spicer, Evil Boy Genius, did not DO "nice." Especially not if this guy with the freak eyebrow was going to snap at him to do so.

"Anything with sugar," he ordered, flopping down in a chair. He put a finger to his chin in thought. "Pudding would be cool," he added.

OOC: Btw, totally lurking the Sanji/Del thing above cuz it's so cute, and YES fall in love with Sanji cuz he is awesome in a totally spazzy lolwut kind of way. ^^

*throws confetti on you* love_hurricane June 26 2010, 09:43:23 UTC

Oh, this guy was going to be a laugh a minute, Sanji could just tell.

Giving the kid an unimpressed look, the cook decided that the best way to fight venom was with an antidote. Pushing himself off the chair he set to work with an idle; "Pudding it is then."

His hands were, however, anything but idle for the next few fast-speeding minutes, as something that looked like it ought to have been on the page of a michelin-star restaurant menu appeared in front of Jack shortly afterwards.

"Nougat Glacé with Coulis and Almond Tuile, enjoy." He sat down again as if he'd done nothing more than tie his shoelaces, spinning a fork around his fingers in a nonchalant manner.

[[ooc: fff I know right? I had no idea it was going to end up so adorable <3]]

Yay!!! *has always wanted to be buried in confetti cuz she's weird like that* jackbotsattack June 27 2010, 04:11:05 UTC

Touche.

Of course, Jack wasn't going to act impressed about anything that was DIABOLICALLY EVIL, so he shrugged at it and grabbed a spoon. Besides, he'd eaten this stuff before, back when he still lived at the mansion in California and wasn't living off frozen pizza and lunch meat, so it wasn't like it was anything special to him.

Thus was his conviction when he took the first bite.

Of course, he didn't mean for his eyes to light up, but they tend to do that when your taste-buds stand up and start doing a happy dance in your mouth.

He forced himself to stop savoring and start swallowing, then gave the cook a look of disinterest that was as transparent as glass.

"It's alright," he said, albeit a bit shakily.

OOC: Totally adorable! With all kinds of sugar on top. ^^ I want to give them both a hug!

Fjskjddgnjk I am still lolling at tastebuds doing a happy dance love_hurricane June 27 2010, 10:47:21 UTC

Sanji hadn't been serving food to the populace for the majority of his life without being able to tell a positive reaction when he saw it, no matter how begrudging it was. The Baratie had had its fair share of critics, after all; and some more than a little bent on shutting it down, to boot.

An entirely bubble-bursting grin cut its way across his profile, as he laughed barkingly at the ceiling.

"Not too shitty, huh?"

Yay, I'm glad I was amusing! Also, 100th comment OOOOO! jackbotsattack June 27 2010, 19:14:40 UTC

Jack was NOT overly fond of being laughed at. He hid his embarrassment behind a scowl as quickly as he could, shoving another spoonful of the amazing dish into his mouth.

"So, how'd a-" swallow "-cook like you end up working in this place, anyway?" he demanded, pointing with the utensil. "Surely you could get somethin' better."

It was all said with condescension. There was safety in that.

Egads so it was :o awesome! love_hurricane June 27 2010, 19:27:39 UTC

There was something of a familiarity to the bitter and resenting tone the kid spoke with; if Sanji had been a little more self-aware he might have realized that it was because it reminded him of himself, but as it was he just sneered back levelly.

"It's a living. Besides, you get some interesting customers through here..." He leaned the chair back slightly, looking at the light fitting with a slightly bored expression as he spoke a rather pointed; "Then again, sometimes you don't."

*dips into the bank of Zoro insults for Jack's response* jackbotsattack June 29 2010, 18:47:53 UTC

Jack was seriously not liking this guy, if only because he could match his cynicism with ease. The genius decided that when he ruled the world, he would make sure the cook had a really demeaning job for revenge.

Then again, he could just force him to make snacks all day. Maybe not vengeful, but personally gratifying.

"What, are you saying I'm not interesting, curlybrow?" he demanded.

Excellent choice, madam. love_hurricane June 29 2010, 19:51:39 UTC

Had Sanji been donated abilities of a psychic nature, Jack would have not been so much occupied with his plans of future world domination as he would have been concerned about ensuring that had a future. As it was the cook was blissfully unaware of the boy's thoughts, but there was still something he definitely didn't like about the uppity kid, as he answered back concisely.

"Yes."

The advantage of playing opposite your favorite character is knowing where all the buttons are. ^^ jackbotsattack June 29 2010, 20:08:25 UTC

"Oh, come on! I've got freaky red eyes and I wear all black and weird goggles; how is that not interesting?"

He realized after the words left his mouth that it was probably the most self-demeaning thing he could have said. He shoved pudding in his mouth self-consciously.

Note to self: Think before speaking!

XD Hadn't thought of that! love_hurricane June 29 2010, 20:14:31 UTC

Arching his unusual eyebrow with a drole expression that was verging on a smile, the cook could have thought of a thousand ways to phrase the observation that Jack was obviously over-compensating, but decided that the most aggravating route would be; "Seen it." As he balanced the fork on the end of his finger.

jackbotsattack June 29 2010, 20:28:15 UTC

"Oh."

It all went back to the fact that if Jack were going to have a mutated gene, he should have had a better one, he thought in aggravation.

"I can build robots," he finally offered. "And other stuff, too. I built a time machine once."

love_hurricane June 29 2010, 20:42:06 UTC

If he hadn't taken an immediate dislike to the boy, and if his downcast expression hadn't been so amusing, Sanji might have felt a little sorry for the kid, but as it was it took a little effort not to smirk.

"Hm? 'S that so?" The cook leaned his chin on his wrist with mild curiosity. "Did it work?"

jackbotsattack July 1 2010, 03:29:16 UTC

Jack's head shot back up, glaring at him with eyes that were both irritated and proud. "Of course it worked," he sneered.

Then his scowl turned slightly sheepish. "But, uh, I could only travel a few minutes back or forth; I didn't have enough power to go any further. I tried and wiped out power to most of Beijing."

love_hurricane July 1 2010, 09:03:21 UTC

Sanji snorted with slightly disapproving mirth at the concept of Beijing's lights going out due to the practices of the be-goggled creature sat in front of him, but he couldn't deny that the fact the kid had time travelled at all was impressive, even if it was only a few minutes. His relationship with technology was... not so smooth; he could manage, but he'd never really been able to get his head around mecha.

Not that he'd say as much.

"Bet that'll look great on your CV. 'Take it you're brushing up on these 'talents' of yours while your here?" It could be noted that the pronunciation of 'talents' might have been more suited to 'imbecilities'.
