[prologue] post-investigation, w/ sanji

[asswipe]

[Hey, Sanji.

Veronica hesitates at the door when she spots him in the kitchen, but after a moment, she walks in.]

Hi... [Sighing. She just wants a break, for once.] Think it's safe to grab a cup of water from here?

It's as good a reason to curse as any, if you ask me.

[Stress relief is good. Curse to infinity, Sanji.]

[concasse]

Ain't it?

You got a good source of stress relief?

[He'd offer her a cigarette if he wasn't already down to like... six.]

[asswipe]

I'd usually curse my friends out in my diary, but... [Said like it's meant to be an (unfunny) joke, as she gestures at herself.] No diary. No friends here, either.

[concasse]

Nonsense~!

I'll be your friend, Veronica-chwan~!

You can curse me out in your diary anytime~!

[-- THAT'S THE TAKEAWAY, RIGHT?]

[asswipe]

[... GOD.]

You really change tracks fast, huh?

[concasse]

Such is the power of a pretty lady~! How am I supposed keep down?
