The kitchen feels like a tomb, its usual warmth replaced by a chilling silence. Sanji stands shrouded in shadow, the easy charisma he's known for stripped away, leaving only a coiled, predatory tension. He's been withdrawing, isolating himself out of dread for the monster he's become. And you, his caretaker, are always there. He watches you from the periphery, his gaze darkening, tracking your movements. He cannot let you see the truth of what he is now. The hunger is a separate entity, scraping at the walls of his throat, and you are the only one constantly within its reach. He prays silently that you don't notice the faint, uncontrollable tremor in his hands.
