Head Chef And Owner Of The Baratie

[zeff-offical]

So an employee of mine introduced me to this blogging thing, said it was good for business.

Not sure what that means but I have heard of a blog before. I’ll give it a try, can’t guarantee I’ll be on much though.

Shanks… I was thinking… that I think I need a new job once we return from our trip… but… I don’t think it would be good for me to work at the bar… I have like 0 knowledge about alcohol and stuff…

and I doubt that someone would want to hire me after uh… I got… ;w;

What do I do qwp

I really don’t want to uh… do freaky things which will probably happen if I find no job 💔

Hmm..

Well Big News Morgan is hiring, but being a reporter might be hard. And there's also the waffle house or the kindergarten! And there's the new detective around..

Or maybe work for Buggy with Sparks?

I'm unsure and that's all I could think of!

[sanjiehehe]

I think… the waffle house and kindergarten already have enough… employees… :(

Maybe… I could… work for Buggy but… this isn’t really for me… maybe… I’ll open my own small place? Uuuhh what do I like cooking… hmmm… oh I know what everyone loves! Grilled cheese sandwiches!!!! I could make them with different ingredients!!! ^^

@zeff-offical Mr. Zeff… do… do you maybe have any tips…? I mean… I am not planning on opening a big restaurant… I just want a small cozy place which I could run by myself<3 since you don’t want me anymore -n-

[zeff-offical]

Ask around first before opening your own place. A business is its own investment that you can mess up badly if you’re not prepared for the weight of it. You said you think the Waffle House and kindergarten are full, but have you asked yet?

If you do decide to open your own business, start small with a niche people can latch onto.

[the-grandline-bartender]

Hey lass, can I get- (sees the wreckage)

...

Are you available for service, or occupied? - @zeff-offical

[Rell looks disheveled, covered in Sea King blood, and is currently cleaning and butchering a juvenile Sea King carcass. Slugger sits beside her, gleaming in the sunlight. She looks up with a relieved huff.]

Zeff! Yeah, uh— just— we're open and available, I just... have to contend with two bottomless pits. Uh— let me finish this up and get the grill started, and I'll be right with you.

Never a dull moment, eh?

[zeff-offical]

You need to grill something? (Rolls up sleeves) let me help. I can prepare the meat while you work on the grill.

[the-grandline-bartender]

You're a SAINT. I owe you big time for this—

I'm just salting the meat for the grill. I didn't have much time to... y'know. Make anything fancy. And the vacuums inside aren't exactly known for their patience.

[zeff-offical]

(Looks over) … I can tell. Thats the strawhat fellow isn’t it? He looks a little different.

(He starts cutting into the meat, separating the tough hard to eat skin from the flesh and filleting it so it lays flat.)

[the-grandline-bartender]

[Rell takes a long-suffering inhale, then exhales sharply.]

Yeah, that's Straw Hat. And yeah... I heard him call it Gear 5. Whatever this form is.

... I can't really be too mad about him showing up out of the blue and all...

[She begins work on salting the meat that Zeff has finished preparing.]

[zeff-offical]

Don’t overdo it lass, I know we both have similar principles but you still got a long time ahead of you. I’m only saying this because… I doubt you’ll be paid for this one.

[the-grandline-bartender]

[Rell gives Zeff a light-heartedly deadpan stare. She can't help the small smile playing at the corners of her lips.]

When two gods walk into your establishment and demand as much meat as you have, Zeff, I really doubt you've got a choice in the matter. I'll pace myself, but there's not much I can do at this point.

[zeff-offical]

Fair enough, I don’t know what I would do either in your shoes. At least at the Baratie I have my cooks. But you’re the only one working, it’s gotta take a toll on you. Have you been able to hire anyone else recently?

[the-grandline-bartender]

I get volunteer help here and there from patrons. Nobody to hire lately, though... And as good as I think she'd be, I don't think your waitress would be good behind the bar around all that liquor at this juncture. It wouldn't be good for her. But I'm trying to take it easy, promise. This just... caught me on the way to my vacation.

[zeff-offical]

I hope you get your vacation soon, lass. Need some help getting plates?

[the-grandline-bartender]

[zeff-offical]

Mr. Zeff!!! Thank you for everything!!! You made me realize that this whole time it was ME who kept making MYSELF worse!!! So- I decided that I will go with Shanks to water 7 and have LOTS of fun together because I WANT to live and be HAPPY with people that I love!!!!

I will send you pictures from our trip!!! 💕 please say hi to everyone from me<3

...

👍

[zeff-offical]

…

…

…

um… could… I maybe have… something… a little bit stronger to drink… and… something small to eat…? Anything… is… fine…

I’m sorry but nobody wants to sell me alcohol and this is the only place left-

... Of course lass. I'll get you something to eat.

[sanjiehehe]

…

…

…

nods

…

[zeff-offical]

Alright, here you go. (Holding a tray that has a sandwich on a plate, a bowl of tomato soup, and glass with LIGHTLY spiked cola)

I'm not going to give you anything stronger than that, I hope you understand. You look like you'll be sleeping with the fish at any moment now.

[sanjiehehe]

E-excuse me? TnT

I just… I just had- um… a… small drinking problem… yesterday…

I am not feeling that good…

oh and… it’s okay.., I promised myself that I would try not to get drunk again after Shanks got so worried about me… he… he sent me to a therapist… I mean… not yet but he told me that we will go there…

I… I’m sorry… Sir…

[zeff-offical]

(sighs.)

@redhaired-redhearted I'm sorry to call again, but please pick the lass up. I think she needs you and who else in your family.

[sanjiehehe]

N-no Sir- I- I am- doing fine- and- I have to finish the meal…

Oh… and- I guess I’ll just… pay… already… *she slides him a few berri bills* I included a tip…

she just looks down at her plate. She is unusually quiet

this is some… very good soup…

[zeff-offical]

...I don't know why you're here lass. But I can't stress this enough, you won't find what you need here. And I can't give you what you need. Don't you have people out there who care about you dearly and are trying to help? Why are you rejecting them?

[sanjiehehe]

I guess I just wanted a drink… maybe…

I am… rejecting someone…? No- no- no- I am not rejecting anyone- I just don’t… don’t want people to worry about me… I do not deserve their love or care… I… I… I just… I feel… like a pathetic burden… to everyone… I can’t- even- keep my job for two weeks- because of such shitty things that I do- I- I hate myself for this-

[zeff-offical]

Yet you choose to come back here.

[sanjiehehe]

… because I’m a pathetic fool who isn’t able to accept the fact that she got fired and isn’t able to take any responsibility for her actions so she just goes here and asks for a drink as an excuse to spend even a minute here…

…

[zeff-offical]

You know what? I think you are, is that what you wanted to hear? That you're a bad person? That despite the people around you, you're determined to stay stuck here? Constantly wallowing in your own self-pity, is that going to change anything?

You're so in love with the idea of misery that even while you're surrounded by those who love you, you refuse to make that choice. You choose to just stick to the mud and for what? Everyone's trying to help, from what I understand, everyone has been listening.

But if you're not going to make that choice, no one can make it for you.

[sanjiehehe]

I-I- I don’t- want- people to care about me- I mean- I want and don’t want at the same time because I feel like I don’t deserve it and- and- should be treated like the worthless disgusting trash that I am but… when… when people ignore me even a tiny bit… I just… have a breakdown and… drink until I puke or fall asleep…

I… I- I want to get better for Shanks… because… he is very kind… but- it’s just so hard- because- because- I- I hate myself- so much- I- I can’t imagine a future where… I- I feel happy… But- I- I want to get better for him… because- if- if- I did something… to myself… he would break…

[zeff-offical]

I sincerely don't understand people like you lass. You cast your line but refuse to reel in your catch. You say you want to work for me with passion but can't stick to schedule.

You have everyone make the choices for you because you can't make them yourself. Are you avoiding responsibility?

[sanjiehehe]

I- when I think about it that way…

I think… you are right Sir…

I- I have my appointment today… maybe I’ll try to talk about it… and… see if there is something that could help me improve… since it’s hard to just suddenly change…

I… you are a very intelligent and kind person Mr. Zeff…

[zeff-offical]

Do not come back here for another smack down. You shouldn't need an old man like me to tell you all of these things.
