[So sometime after this Luffy is going to go find his journal and camp out on a branch up in a tree for a bit so he can make an entry. The feed will be a little obscure until he’s actually able to flip the journal around the correct way.]

There we go. Oi, guys! It’s me, I’m back again! And I had the strangest time back home too. I had to fight this weird clown guy and-- ahh, I’ll tell you later! Anyway, did I miss anything? I haven’t been gone for years or something right? [And he let’s out a chuckle.] I can’t imagine how awkward that’d be...

[…]

Oh, yeah! So I need some major help with something. How do you enter into school? I want to learn this really cool thing, but I’m gonna need school to do it. I only need to know math and science though. I don’t need all that other stuff, so do I just talk to Raine, or can I walk in one day?

[And with that, he'll close the journal and wait for replies! If anyone needs him, he's going to be at the dressing room for a while so he can get his clothes back! And after that point he's going to walk back to the Strawhat house, so feel free to catch him at any point!]

All I'm saying is meat alchemy sounds a bit far-fetched. [But then again, Sokka's a huge fan of meat himself.]

Besides, are you sure they'd teach that at the schools?

No, it has to be true! I know that it is. I can feel it... here.

[And he is putting the side of his fist to his chest even though you can't see it. In other words he just wants it to be true REALLY bad.]

Well... I don't know if they teach it. But I bet if I learn what I need to, Sokka can teach me! [And then he's going to get serious. But not usual serious. More like the serious he gets when he has a dumb idea.] Sanji, if I can't do this... I can't say that I've grown!!

[This has "Stupid Idea" written all over it in neon letters... And yet Sanji can't bring himself to stomp on his poor captain's hopes and dreams.

--Or maybe he just wants to see where this madness leads. Yeah, that's probably it.]

Alright, alright! I got it. Do what you want.

Just don't give Raine-chan a hard time, you hear me?! I bet she's got enough on her plate without having to teach you.

I won't!

[...]

Oh, uh... I actually wanted to talk to you. Studying in school is gonna be really hard so... I figured you and Nami could tutor me when she gets back. [Because that's going to turn out excellent.]

You want-- [Slack-jawed, Sanji points to himself incredulously.]

Luffy, I've never tutored anyone before. [It's not exactly a "No", but neither does he want to get the guy's hopes up either]

Yeah, but you guys still know way more stuff about all this than me, so it'll be fine!

[Don't make him ORDER YOU TO DO IT! nah he wouldn't do that but still!

He actually wonders if he should get Robin or some others to help too hmmm.]

[How much he knows doesn't mean he's qualified to be a teacher, Luffy. B| He just gives a gruff sigh as his answer, in the end, before musing to himself]

Why not ask Robin-chan for help too? [As much as he doesn't want to saddle their poor archaeologist with Luffy-duty, he's a bit surprised his captain didn't mention her. She's by far the smartest among them]

I don't know... it just seems like she's always doing important reading stuff. I didn't want to bother her.

[Those book have important stuff in them or something, he has no idea.]

So you'll bother Nami-san instead.

[He sees how it is]

Yeah! See, if she's tutoring me, there's no way she can be hitting me at the same time! So I'll just heat two kettles with one pot.

[... that's not how the saying goes is it.]

[A pause - in which Sanji contemplates that unfortunate star he was born under, if this is the man he'd willingly follow into Hell. His life choices depress him some days.]

Two birds with one stone, Luffy. [A sigh] And you're really underestimating Nami-san's ability to multitask. [If anything, she'd probably beat him more out of frustration]

Wait-- you really think so?

[If Nami can teach him and hit him at the same time that's going to be problematic.]

Yosh... then I leave my dreams in your hands, Sanji!!! [And now we're back to square one of depending on you. Gawd can't you teach part time.]

[aslfkdh;ajsflk;hoi]

I didn't mean shove this all on me!! [He's got his hands full running Seventh Heaven and keeping tabs on everyone and practicing his forms so he doesn't get rusty and flirting with all the ladies of Luceti and and and--]

Sheesh, Sanji! You're really coming and going with this whole thing!

[Gaaaaaawd.]

Okay! When I start school, I'll just ask all my friends for help! So that way it won't be too much of a burden on a single one!

[So half the village is gonna be tutoring his captain. Good to know]

Tch, fine... [Muttering out loud] I guess I could help out if you come into Seventh Heaven.
