CHARACTERS: Gaius stickyfingers and Trafalgar Law kikoku
DATE: 10/22
WARNINGS: Talk about violent things, such as you know, removing peoples' organs.
SUMMARY: Law apologises for literally gutting Gaius with his weird powers that don't actually kill people.
[He's keeping to himself today, sitting in the saloon as he's wont to do during the nights on Perdition's Rest. Relaxing is one thing, but sitting and listening to the chattering as its uses, too. Though, ever since his little incident with one Pirate named Law, he's pretty much stopped offering magic tricks in exchange for drinks. There was no way he wanted a reapeat of that day's... adventure by talking to the wrong person.
Gods. And he thought he knew some freaks form back home. That shit really took the cake.
Speaking of cake, he's sitting at a mostly empty table now with a glass of sweet wine and a slice of cake he had hidden in one of his pouches from back home. After spending a lot of time in the desert today--he felt like he deserved it.
So it's honestly his fault that he's so distracted with sweet buttercream icing and doesn't see Dr. Death come knocking at his table.]

In any case, Law's not really one for apologies normally. He does shitty things, sure. But if people dislike him for it he hardly has an issue with that. It's easier for him if they decide to avoid him. He wouldn't have an intention to apologize to Gaius either, if not for the factor of Olivia at play. So he's sitting down in the chair across the table from the red haired man before intoning lowly;]
That cake looks like someone sat on it.
[Yeah, great opener, Law.]
no subject
He's never been the type to flee, even if Law makes him incredibly uncomfortable, now.]
Does not. It was in one of my pouches, so it might have gotten a little squished due to the extra bullets I'd packed next to it. [He HADN'T sat on it, thank you very much. He has more respect for his sweets than that.]
So, are you here to chat, or do you wanna pull out another one of my organs today?
no subject
[NO, FOCUS. Gaius's weird food habits aren't important right now. Though Law certainly questions whether that's sanitary... cake is not known as a food that keeps very well.... He can bother him about it later, maybe. If he manages to smooth things over.]
I'm not pulling anything out of you. It's not as dramatic with a different organ, anyway.
[Trafalgar Law low key admitting he's an edgelord.]
In any case, I am... sorry for startling you.
no subject
He takes another slow bite of his cake--which tastes just fine, thanks, it was properly wrapped up and cared for, he'll have you know--before considering answering the guy.]
Didn't strike me as the type to apologise.
Or did Babe chew you out for pulling such a fucked up move?
no subject
I'm not nor-
[Wait hold on just a fucking second.]
Do... do you mean Liv-ya?
[This look of mixed confusion and annoyance. Why was this dweeb calling Olivia babe, does Achilles know about this, what does this MEAN?]
no subject
Aye, I mean Olivia. [What's wrong with your mouth dude, say Olivia properly.]
We're allies back home. You know. We work together.
no subject
[Wait hold on, this is besides the point.]
In any case, yes. She... said something to me about it.
[She was very cross with her captain.]
no subject
This is why you got so... weird and tore my heart out in the first place. If you calmed down just a wee bit, you know, you'd actually might turn out to be a decent guy.
You know, if Olivia really thinks that highly of you and all.
[His tone suggests that he doesn't think Law is someone who should be thought highly of--and it also suggests that Olivia had said something that may be telling of how highly she thought of Mr. Psycho Doctor.]
no subject
[He was making a JOKE, a very bad one, but the issue was more judgement than a lack of chill.
As far as Olivia goes... honestly? He's not surprised to hear that. After all, it's Olivia. As Sieglinde had said to him the other day, Olivia wouldn't have a bad thing to say about even Satan himself. Law's not entirely sure he believes it but... she's certainly not one to speak poorly of people. And he's aware she has some level of respect for him.]
And you should well know that Liv-ya isn't the type to speak poorly of people. In any case, I didn't come here to apologize because I care what you think.
[He came here to apologize because he cares what Olivia thinks.]
