pros : the most immaculate drawings , stuffed animals , sparring sessions , can always cool your drinks , a surprisingly good hugger , always around for jokes !
cons : nothing .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
breathe steadied , eyelids closed — deep in focus , refining the rich , potent spiritual pressure within her , palms firmly clasped as digits grip the handle of her zanpakuto ( sode no shirayuki ) —
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
a shatter of land , an almost frozen over ocean far ahead , and the sudden change of weather —
undoubtedly the true essence of sode — no — shirayuki , all that was left ; to retain and practice within a real battle ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
once reaching the very apex of this technique , arms would lower swiftly , sheer force creating a quake below her feet , ground splitting into two — thus forming a vast canyon ahead ,
“ dance — ”
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ huff — ”
arms gently raise up , reishi now refined within her blade — one break of focus could take her very life , sweat leaving her only to turn into frail icicles that shatter as they hit the ground ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
blade turning pure white , spreading destruction from the singular ( contactless ) swing of her zanpakuto , until hitting the very waters on the edge of sereitei , forming large waves to crash and eventually ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
mind expanding to soon sense the entirety of soul society , as if the lieutenant would travel from one place to another , but — mentally , closing off all thought processes , background noise fading with each moment ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ it’s working . . .”
her training was paying off , causing such atmospheric changes throughout the land without the use of bankai and performed within a matter of seconds even ,
she had surpassed previous limits ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
temperature gradually lowering to absolute zero in attempt at maintaining the state for longer than previous occasions , lips parting as the shinigami exhales , snowy white air leaving her lungs in correspondence ,
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ sode — no — shirayuki !”
all states would lower to freezing point , molecules , cells , dust — the weather too would react and begin to reign down flakes of snow gracefully , eyelids soon widening to reveal dark hues
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
luckily she left a few things in there , most of what she’s tasting is seemingly new to her ,
“ mmmh— this human world cake is so good , i’ll have to take some for my brother !”
grinning ear to ear through noms .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ nah , don't bother. treat
yourself. I'll make myself
something real quick. ❜
she seems happy , it would
be unwise of him to take of
her plate. speaking of -
let's see what's left in the
fridge . .
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
a quick hello to any new followers , apart from tybw it’s been years since last watching bleach , please be patient with me and i’m only here for fun , any drama will be blocked 🥺🤍
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
in case anyone is interested : an app called picsart is good for this , you search something like “ burst or snowflake or crown.”
stuff like that and it will come up !
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
taking up a careful stance opposing him , hand lowering to her hilt as she began unsheathing her blade ,
“ don’t go crying to your captain when you lose — ”
a smirk present across her face , in saying so .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
understandable , i’m sure everyone feels that way sometimes , we wanna fight and get stronger but also be there for one another ,
anyways if you ever need someone to talk to — you know where i am !
ᅠᅠᅠ
Nobody tell the rest of my division……..but sometimes I’m sick of being the fight-hungry idiot that’s the butt of the Seireitei.
Sometimes I wanna be the consoling warmth people need at times.
ᅠᅠᅠ
continuing to stuff her face so casually before him , brows raising as he glances to her ,
“ you uh — want some ?”
it did belong to him after all , soon taking a spoonful of cake into her mouth .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
she's gonna eat all that ?
the grip must've made her
hungry huh .
❛ you should thank Inoue
for that . she stops by to
leave some of it after work . ❜
watching her makes him
kind of hungry . . 💧
⠀
@BeastAbsolute
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ oh ? what form of training servant , i could sharpen my own skills as well . ”
the one time she would ever admit lack of perfection , still calling him that title .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ right — sure . . .”
a playful roll of her eyes as she continues dropping spoiled food and burnt items into the trash ,
soon getting a cloth to wipe down surfaces , somewhat improving the situation already .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ it . . it was already broken
when I got here . ❜
he'll just , leave that there .
tuck it over the edge 'till it
fell in the trash .
better grab a broom and . .
it's gonna be a long day . 💧
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ in any case we should clean up , and by we i mean you .”
already shifting her demeanour back to her old self , glaring at him almost painfully so .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
closing the fridge with a bun in her mouth , hands full of leftovers , drinks and snacks ,
“ mmh , hey this bread is kinda good — oh this rice too !”
exclaiming as she placed the food down and dug in .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ same old , same old. actually , I still can't believe they are growing up. I'm starting to sound like my dad. ❜
taking a seat behind the counter. watching the female shinigami dig through his fridge.
it's almost like she's part of the family at this point.
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ fine , but you owe me one!”
with a smirk , now she’ll have something to benefit from in the future , already taking burnt items and tossing them in the trash .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ while i understand juice doesn’t last forever , it’s almost selfish having it in a box — it’s not like i can see the juice myself .”
with a twitch of annoyance , eye staring down the straw before handing it over .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ no , you're being silly —
can't you see it's empty ? ❜
did she even enjoy that juice ??
reaching out with an open hand .
❛ since it's over , this means it's
trash . ❜
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
raise against his own opposition , sliding along the zanpakuto as she added enough force to fend it off ,
he seemingly had greater heft to his strikes than her , no doubt a testament to his style of physical—
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ fine fine , anyways . . . ”
stretching her arms before cracking her knuckles , expressing shifting to grow serious ,
“ how about we spar a little to take the edge off ? ”
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
shifting to a playful scold , expression slowly softening as she speaks ,
“ came to make sure you’ve behaved while i was away , anyways i’ve got some time off so i might as well check on everyone .”
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ guess I spoiled your plans.
shame . . I almost wanted that
cold shower. ❜
sliding out of bed , he yawned
& stretched. still looking half
asleep. he missed her too.
❛ what brings you in town
anyway ? ❜
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
a gentle nudge as they strode , worryingly adding her best remark ,
“ you really shouldn’t hand over your credit card so easily — especially not to a shinigami .”
with a smirk etched over her sharp features .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ that's called shopping , Rukia. Matsumoto does that often when she's around. probably that's why my credit card is dry . . ❜
a little walk in the park while they're at it would be nice too. just enjoy the day. feel it pass by. sounds nice.
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
for once she has a goofy grin spread across her face , so eager to taste more human world delicacies ,
“ i’m surprised it looks so good , let’s just hope it wasn’t your cooking .”
ᅠᅠᅠ
( she seems excited about those leftovers, which he finds kind of wholesome. he opens the fridge door and takes out the containers. )
oh, looks like it'll be a feast❕
ᅠᅠᅠ
chuckling in correspondence , one hand raising to cover her mouth partly ,
“ hahah — right? i don’t mind his sense of style but he worries over it too much .”
a look of content toward the other , enjoying herself .
ᅠᅠᅠ
“Eyebrow drama?”
The hairless shinigami raised an eyebrow, fighting back a snicker that threatened to slip out.
“Of course, Abarai always did have weird eyebrows.”
ᅠᅠᅠ
of course he’d prefer to go solo regardless , seemingly no way of swaying him ,
“ if you’ll have me with you , we can even fight each other afterwards . ”
regretting her words immediately with a gulp soon after .
ᅠᅠᅠ
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ sounds great , how are your sisters by the way ?”
pacing along to his fridge , a gentle pull on the handle as she scans through ,
then peeking her head in before taking out multiple items — almost greedily .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ tsk . alright , fine . so be it .
wanna go through the fridge
first ? I'm sure you can find
something delicious in there . ❜
his sisters cooking is as good
as it always was . but then
again , he can buy her some
treats too .
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
i agree !! though i see a lot of good rukia writers who i respect and may get inspiration from , i never see one writer as better or worse , just have fun ! 🤍
ᅠᅠᅠ
don't compare your work to the others :3
you're unique and we won't pay attention to who writes a character better than who.
just do the characters you love ! ❤️
ᅠᅠᅠ
continuing to dig the spoon and shovel cake into her mouth , possibly the happiest he’s seen her lately — taking a sip of juice after successfully pressing the straw in ,
“ look i learned how to do the straw trick !”
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
there's a sandwich he can
microwave back into life . .
that'll do , that'll do .
❛ sure thing . tell em , Kurosaki
sent ya . he'll appreciate it .❜
he mentioned with a joking -
like tone before shoving the
plate inside the microwave .
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ i’m glad you don’t , you’d probably burn the house down .”
with a light chuckle to herself , before filling her plate , a grin on her face as the scent travelled up her nose .
ᅠᅠᅠ
you know i don't cook, brat❕
( he growls at her before opening up the containers, all sorts of homemade delicacies presented. he fetches a plate and hands it to her along with a scoop. )
knock yourself out❕
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ cant hear you , i’m already soo far ahead — ”
playfully calling out as she paces down the street , slightly faster than him ,
“ —so get movin dummy !”
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
❛ you live & learn right ?
besides , she doesn't exactly
take no for an answer . 'nough
about that , wanna go for that
walk now ? ❜
while the day is sunny and
bright . wouldn't want to
miss it .
⠀
ᅠᅠᅠ
“ yeah , well i had half a mind to drop ice over you , you’re lucky there’s no emergencies right now .”
arms folded , a hint of a smile creeping upon her face , it really has been a while , she missed him .
ᅠᅠᅠ
⠀
⠀
❛ you're up and about
already ? man , I must've
really lost track of time huh. ❜
he's used to it by now.
having around for so long
probably had it's perks.
