"So what about a double date?!" The freckled man with a head set aflame asked suddenly popping up in Sabo's view, making the blonde jump and stop himself from severing his own tongue in the process.
"Mother of– Ace, how many times do we have to not to set yourself in fire while you're in the apartment?" Sabo huffed, reaching out to pat the flames down on the distressed man's head, though had no luck as they continued to spark back to life with newfound vigor.
"Aghhh, nevermind that." Ace said waving Sabo's hands away from his head, "We have a more dire situation on our hands and I will be damned if we don't do anything about it! So I'm here to ask you: Are you in?"
"In for what exactly?" Sabo asked cautiously, wary of the flames that by then had spread to cover Ace's shoulder blades. "You do realize that as a certified Hero I am unable to help or take part in whatever scheme you have cooking up and would have to severely advise you against it."
"Sabo," Ace's words lacked the usual laidback tone he often had when he talked about his heists and plans of wreaking havoc. "I think it's finally time for us to team up against a common enemy."
"Team up…" Sabo repeated, needing to make sure that he was actually on the same page as his burning boyfriend. "For a double date?"
"A double date, yoi?" Marco's voice was curious where Sabo's was skeptical and cautious.
"Exactly Marco! We're going out, so get ready, and you!" Ace rounded on Sabo once again, "I will ask you again, are you in?"
Sabo blinked up to Ace, still confounded over the entire ordeal, what had his boyfriend so riled up that he had combusted and was no where near extinguishing his flames.
"Well one of us has to make sure you don't burn the whole city to the ground, but are you at least going to tell us what we're signing up for?"
"Does this have anything to do with the Surgeon asking Luffy on a date, yoi?" Marco asked, though a small smile suggested that he knew that was the reason behind Ace's sudden interest on an impromptu double date.
"The Surgeon?" Sabo asked just as Ace's flames brightened, the edges turning a dangerous shade of blue.
"That bastard." Ace seethed, "Does he really think he can get away with taking advantage of Luffy like this?"
"Wait, wait, wait. Are you telling me that Law Trafalgar, the dreaded surgeon, Master of the Underworld and man who has literally harvested the beating hearts of other Heroes is going out with Luffy. Our Luffy?"
"What other Luffy and Surgeon do you know?" Ace asked incredulously. While Marco calmly nodded from where he stood, "The very ones."
"And why the hell didn't you start with that Ace! What are we still doing here? Let's go on that double date!"
