Eating
Drabble#12: Luffy sad. Sanji can't eat meat like him. He had to fix that!
AN: So I thought I'd explain how Sanji's tastebuds words with foods.
IMPORTANT NOTE: When Sanji is drinking his fake blood, from the blood tablets, we'll call it s!blood.
~?~?~?~
"How come you don't eat too Sanji?" Luffy asked, stuffing his mouth.
"Yea," Nami noted, "Why don't you eat with us?"
Usopp and Chopper looked over curiously as well, Zoro ignoring them as he already knew the answer.
Sanji looked up from the newspaper, smoke wafting around him from his cigarette. "I'm a vampire; we drink blood," he said simply with a shrug, and sipped at his mug.
"I know that," Luffy said, rolling his eyes. "But it doesn't mean you can't eat human food, right?"
Sanji sighed sadly, putting the paper down. "No Luffy it does," he said, "I've been a chef since the beginning of my time, before I was immortal. Now, it all taste like dirt to me."
"Dirt?" Luffy tilted his head in confusion, before his face turned to horror. "You can't eat meat?!"
"That all you got from that?!" Sanji barked.
"Wow, that sucks," Usopp said with a frown. "Technically I don't have to eat human food but I can't imagine not eating it."
"Not eating cotton candy?" Chopper cried.
Sanji rolled his eyes. "It's not that bad," he assured them, "I forgot what everything tasted like a long time ago; I can't miss what I don't remember."
"That sad," Nami frowned.
Sanji smiled reassuringly. "Don't be sad for me Nami-swan," he said, "I may not be able to enjoy the gluttony of humans, but I can't still enjoy other taste."
"Like?" Usopp asked.
Sanji gestured to his mug, which with half full with his s!blood, there was a layer of light brown powder on top. "I can taste certain spices," he said, "Especially the stronger ones, like cinnamon and pumpkin spice."
"Don't you miss it?" Chopper asked sadly.
Sanji shrugged. "Like I said, can't remember it," he said, "Though I guess I miss eating crab… and maybe lemon meringue."
"That's sucks," Zoro shrugged.
Sanji rolled his eyes. "Fuck you too mosshead," he said. "Now who wants thirds?"
"Me!" Luffy instantly shouted.
End.
