" That's Because I'm Just So Lovable. Besides, How Can You Say No To This Face? " She Asks With A Giggle,

" that's because i'm just so lovable. besides, how can you say no to this face? " she asks with a giggle, opening up the basket, the delightful scents of food wafting up toward her face now. boy, that smells delicious. " i bet your kitchen smelled really amazing while you were making all these treats for us. " then again, sanji's creations always smell wonderful and look so delectable.

" oh? " she looks up at him before taking out a container with chocolate chip cookies. " ah— is that molasses i smell? " agatha asks, her smile growing. she could even see toffee bits in them, which made the edges slightly crispy and almost caramel-like in texture, the molasses making the centers more chewy. " gods, these are delicious! "

agatha offers one of the cookies to him. she's sure he tried them after baking them, but still! she feels it's only fair to share them. " i love these! i'm sure maren and aurora will enjoy them, too, if i don't eat them all. " she tells sanji with a laugh, which would certainly be easy for her to do when they're so good, but no, she's already putting the lid back on the container and trying the other sweets.

It seemed that no matter the situation, no matter the feelings Sanji willingly voiced, Agatha knew exactly what to say it set his mind at ease. She understood the doubt and knew exactly where it came from, but the fact that she had confidence in him helped to further solidify the idea that, some day, he wouldn't mind becoming a father.

"You're too kind." The hand she placed on his arm was covered with one of his own, fleeting touch a gentle thank you for investing even a few seconds of her time in encouraging him.

He hadn't much choice, but Sanji didn't mind being dragged. She had invited him, and he knew that it would have been cruel to deny her company when she wanted it.

"I have time, and you know I can't really say no to you." He sat beside her, giving her plenty of space but not treating her like a stranger. "You'll have to let me know what you think. I made some changes based on the last time you tried this."

a delighted laugh leaves agatha. " m-maybe th-the tarts would be a bit much, b-but w-we could most c-certainly make sandwiches! a-and m-m-maybe pick up snacks from the convenience store o-on the car ride to— t-to th-the beach! " she fears going to the extent of making tarts would sap the energy she does happen to currently have for going out to the beach. hopefully mairi could understand and would be fine with settling with sweets from the store.

" w-we c-can pack those little bottles of a-apple juice, too! " she'd suggest the bottles of orange juice, but it doesn't tend to agree with her stomach when it's hot outside. together, she works with mairi to make sandwiches and pack them into the big lunchbox, followed by the drinks and some ice packs to keep them cold.

" i-i'll go change into s-something a bit more weather-appropriate, o-okay? " she smiles at mairi before heading into her room to change into a loose blouse, a long, flowy skirt and sneakers. agatha packs her bag, dropping in a bottle of sunscreen and her phone before returning to her companion. " n-need me t-to— to c-carry anything in this for you, mairi? "

NEVER THE ONE to shy away from a beach trip, Mairi quickly hops up to see the outside world. she's got a pretty good level of intuition, and she's wonderfully adapt at reading the clouds. dark clouds meant storms were coming, while light ones barely touching the sun, well... that's what she was looking at.

beaming, the brunette nods. she was a few years younger than Agatha, however, ever since meeting the woman and staying in her apartment, she's been grateful for the chance to show Aggie how she could be useful.

"let me make tha sandwiches!" she grinned, giving a thumbs up. the clouds and the sun ratio were satisfactory. "let's make tarts too!"

we have a choice, every single day that we wake up, of what we can put into the world, and i ask you to please choose love every single day.
