Let's Sit and Talk

Pairings: None.
"Sit down, Captain," Ace smiled, "I'll tell you all about Straw Hat Luffy. If you don't mind buying." He waved his hand towards the menu, followed by his belly rumbling for food. Smoker snorted but agreed. He had a theory that if he knew the thinking of this one pirate that got away, he'd know how to defeat him. Sure he could always go after this pirate sitting in front of him, but he knew it was a waste of time.
Feeling his wallet getting lighter, Smoker summoned the bartender to feed Ace anything until the total was one thousand beli. Ace patted him on the back, laughing about not being that bad of a guy. "So spill, Portgas."
"He was born May fifth, seventeen years ago. His favorite food is anything involving meat. He's 172 centimeters – I think, he might have sprouted a few more centimeters after I left."
"Oi, I don't care about that."
Ace frowned. "You asked. Listen up instead of complaining. Thank you ma'am." He smiled as food was set in front of him by the bartender's wife. She nodded and left with a smile. "He was born real weak, bet you'll never hear that. He was born early and then came down with several diseases. Used to cry all the time. I was three and I still remember trying to smother myself with a pillow when he cried. Mom didn't sleep for days since she was always tending to him because Luffy's dad had left a few months before Luffy was born.
"But finally he went to sleep and...mom died. Doctors said that since giving birth, her body couldn't take it any more and gave out. We were sent to grandpa's. From there it's history." Scrapping the remains of his food onto his fork, Ace suckled on the silverware. "Thanks for the meal, Captain! I'll see you some other time." Before the marine could comment, the pirate was gone from the bar leaving his tab.
"Fucking Portgas! That information isn't helping anything!"
