Kita sighed shaking her head as she looked at Gin and Sojiro. Gin was still messing with Sojiro's hair until Sojiro lifted his hand and pushed his father's hand away. Her gaze then turned to where Alister was just standing, then to Sumi. "Why do you Gods have to be so annoying?"
Sumi giggled, "it is our arrogance that annoys the lower life forms."
"You think," the words fell from Kita's lips with a touch of sarcasm. "We will find a way. Even if I have to visit Las Noches for him to see Kadaj."
Gin's eyes narrowed. "We are NOT going to Las Noches. We can come visit Karakura for this, but you are NOT going back there, with or without me. Don't even think about it!"
"It was not literal, calm yourself. I had to raise one child there I don't want to have another associated with that hell. Plus I am sure Vale doesn't want Kadaj there either. Karakura, will nine times out of ten, be where we will meet. After all, the shop will still be here. It's the perfect place for everyone to visit."

Kenji, who had remained silent throughout most of the conversation, slamed his hand flat to the table. He sighed and rose to his feet, pushing his chair backwards. "Several things..." Kenji lifted a finger. "One...There are a few things to digest here that all of you have skipped over. But, we'll get to that later." He looked to his father. "Two...And, don't be mad..."
Kisuke frowned deeply as he picked up his cup of tea and took a sip. He growled beneath his breath.
"What?!" Kenji waved his hands. "I said don't be mad...And, I haven't even said anything yet!"
"Hm?" Kisuke shook his head. "My tea is cold."
Kenji sighed hearing Kita and his mother giggle. "You know what...You're a jerk, dad."
"Well...Forgive me for liking my tea hot..." Kisuke pointed to the teacup. "I hope you know this means that I can't do anything until I get a hot cup."
"I've got a hot cup for you."
Kenji made a gagging sound. "What does that even mean?! Gods....Between you, Bean and mom, I'm not sure how Soji and I haven't ended up a couple of perverts!"
"Give it time."
Kenji shook his head with a smile.

Chuckling at the antics in the room, Tessai served up a fresh cup of tea for everyone. As he poured Kisuke's cup of tea Tessai spoke up. "There," he slowly pushed the cup in front of Kisuke. "Now you can talk with your son."
Kisuke smiled shaking his head slightly. "He could have finished what he was saying," he looked toward his son who was still standing, "or asked either way. Sit back down and talk to me, son." He gestured for him to take a seat at the table once more.
As Kenji took his seat at the table once more, Kisuke continued. "What do you want to say to me, or the group?"
Kenji hung his head as he spoke, "I don't want to upset you or Mom, but" he looked up, looking between his parents. "I would like to have my own place when we go to the Soul Society."
Tessai looked at Kisuke and Yoruichi, both were a little shocked at this bit of information, but they did not seem to be upset--as Kenji thought they might be. Tessai looked at Kenji and smiled with a nod of head, he then turned and walked back over to the stove to place the teapot back on the low-burning flame.

Yoruichi sighed and leaned her cheek against her palm, crossing the other arm over her stomach. She shook her head. "Have we really gotten to that point? It feels like just yesterday you were a tiny baby."
Kisuke gave a lopsided smile. "We knew this day would come eventually."
"Yes... but I did not expect it to come around in this manner." Yoruichi moved closer to her son and placed a hand on his shoulder. "If that's what you want... If that's what you need, then we will respect your need for space."

Ichigo chuckled at Yoruichi and Kisuke's reaction. He stood silent for a moment deep in thought. He crossed his arms with a hum. "You know, that doesn't sound like a bad idea."
He glanced over at his father. "Maybe it's time I moved out too."

Isshin raised a brow a pout drawing across his lips. He then burst out sobbing and grabbing his own son and squeezing him tightly in his arms. "You want to leave me and your sisters?" Isshin wailed. "Why, oh why?!"
Quickly he released Ichigo and grabbed his arms looking at him pointedly. "Did I do something wrong? Was it something Karin said? Why?!" He covered his face with both his hands and sobbed.
"My son hates my guts! Where did I go wrong?!"

Ichigo writhed and clawed his way out of his father's grasp. Why he decided to even bother speaking the thought out loud, he had no idea. He knew what kind of reaction it would get.
"OH FOR THE LOVE OF--" Ichigo took two giant steps back away from his father, swatting his hand away. "Why can't you take it like an adult like Kisuke and Yoruichi!? You don't see them sobbing and acting hysterical over Kenji!" Ichigo gestured at Kisuke, waving his arm through the air.
Kisuke stood and stared at his feet, his shoulders shaking. He lifted his head and started sobbing, imitating Isshin. He lumbered over to Kenji, draping himself over his son. "They grow up so fast! Why, Kenji? Why do you have to leave your dear old dad?" Kenji, like Ichigo, protested loudly, attempting to pull himself from Kisuke's grasp.
Ichigo whirled around and hunched his shoulders, making a fist at Kisuke as Yoruichi snickered at them behind her hand. "YOU'RE NOT HELPING!!!"
Kisuke sniffled back his fake tears and pulled out his fan, fanning himself. He shook his head. "Shame on you Ichigo. Everything your father has done for you and you go and abandon him. The dishonor!"
"Ugh," Ichigo found the nearest chair and collapsed into it, putting his face in his hands. "Forget I said anything..." His family was beyond exhausting.

Kita looked at Sojiro as his hand shot up quickly and he wagged his finger at his mother. "What?!" Kita protested.
"Don't. Don't even. I have a few more years before you can start sobbing about me leaving home." Sojiro informed her.
"A few more years?" Gin questioned with a snicker. "If I know your mother, and I do she is not letting you move out. Ever."
Kita huffed giving Gin a dirty look. "That is not true!" She reached out placing her hand on Sojiro's shoulder as she looked at him. "I won't like the idea, but I won't stop you from moving out. Just from moving off the same street we live on."
Ichigo, Kenji, and Sojiro all shook their heads. "Parents!" the three exclaimed.

Tessai chuckled at his family, shaking his head slightly as he walked up to the table. "Time is getting away from the three of you," he looked pointedly at Kisuke, Gin, and Ichigo. "You are to be present in Soul Society to meet Miss Fuu in less than an hour."Kita looked between the three of them. "Miss who?""Fuu. Not who." Kisuke corrected her with a wide grin."I know what he said," Kita grumbled. "Who is this Fuu lady?""Someone you will be aware of soon enough, but right now you will remain in the dark about her," Gin replied as he stood from his chair. "I will be ready in a flash," Gin told them as he walked from the kitchen. "I will meet you two in the Shop."Kisuke and Ichigo nodded in understanding as Tessai started cleaning the dirty dishes off the table to wash them. He spoke to Kisuke as he did so. "What should I pack for the move, Boss?""Hmm," Kisuke rubbed his chin. "Just the necessities for now. We can return later to claim the other stuff once we are settled in the new place." He looked up at Tessai as he turned to walk over to the sink. "But we need to remember to seal the shop before we leave.""Got it," Tessai nodded as he placed the dishes in the sink. "I will get everyone on the ball while you are away, and we will be ready for your return."
Kita looked to Kisuke as he stood from his chair. "Could you please let Juushiro know we will be coming? That way he will have things ready for us."Kisuke nodded, "I believe I can do that." He adjusted his hat and turned to leave the kitchen. "I also need to find and speak with Isao...""Good luck, Boss."
Tessai watched as Kisuke waved over his shoulder exiting the room, Ichigo and Isshin following behind. He then turned and looked at the ones still at the table. "Don't sit there. Things won't pack themselves," Tessai clapped his hands together shooing them out, "Go! Go go go." The others quickly filed out of the kitchen to pack their things. --END RP-- "What Comes: Part One"

Bleach Unrated: REBOOTEDCurrent Arc: Deep RenewalEpisode 353 "Arrival": (continued) A heavy sigh escaped Yoruichi as she turned to see Tessai behind her.Tessai only shook his head when she looked on at him with a confused look in her eyes. "Don't ask me. I have no idea what is going on. I am just as confused as you, Lady Yoruichi."Yoruichi huffed and started a path to the main room. "If we appeared in the same place as before--three days ago--maybe the others did to. Which means Sojiro and baby Kadaj are in the main room." As she made her path she heard Kita scream from above and rushed footsteps going toward the stairs. She picked up her pace so to meet her in the main room.Moved |

Bleach Unrated: REBOOTEDCurrent Arc: RejectionEpisode 496 "Omrice": (continued) Sojiro, at a table in the kitchen peeling and cutting an apple, turned around at a sound behind him, seeing Evita in shorts and a purple hoodie. “Hey, you’re awake. How you’re feeling?” She sat down next to him. “Fine now,” she replied, putting her head on her knee, “though I don’t remember everything.” She looked to his arm in the sling. “I thought we protected each other.”
Sojiro glanced to his arm and smiled. “Don’t worry about it. We did for the most part. No one but me was hurt at the school and Whisper didn’t get me too badly. This was an accident.” “Accident?” Sojiro picked up an apple slice and shrugged. “You got out of control. I’ve heard it happened with Ichigo sometimes, so it’s probably a part of being hollow. I don’t really care about it. You were trying to help and you stood up for me.” |

Post by Evita Anita Aizen on Aug 11, 2024 23:10:00 GMT -6
Evita looked down at her slippers, bangs slipping down over her eyes. “That’s no big deal. Sorry that I hurt you.”
“It’s fine,” Sojiro declared, waving a hand. “You didn’t have to get involved but you did. That’s more important to me.”
Evita looked up at him with her piercing eyes. “Why does that matter? Everyone else gets involved. Why am I the exception?”
Sojiro hummed. “I don’t mean it in a bad way. I guess what I mean is that you always have been kind of a loner. The attacks focused on my mom and the shop, so Kenji and I were in the thick of it. And then, you were hurt and taken away. I didn’t want you to get dragged into it unless you made the choice on your own. You don’t have to attack.”
Evita looked down at the floor again, feeling sleepy. She blinked to push the fatigue aside. She wanted to talk. “Is that really true?” she murmured. “Is it okay to watch and wait? Until I want to do something?”
“It sounds good to me,” Sojiro nodded as he popped an apple slice into his mouth.
Evita fell silent for a few moments, pieces of the previous day’s events falling into place in her mind. “What about you?” she asked.
“Hmm?”
“What is your decision now that you have a zanpakuto? Will you watch and defend or attack?”
That wasn’t entirely what she wanted to ask, but it seemed easier than asking him if he was alright with her messing with his head. If she had made it appear when he didn’t want it to.

Sojiro halted in picking up another slice and looked to his hip where Evita indicated. Looking at the silver and blue braided hilt. “I’m not really sure,” he admitted, glancing to her. She wasn’t looking at him. He turned back to his blade and continued his thought. “I’m glad I finally got it, but I’m not sure I like provoking others. But at the same time, sometimes moving first is important. Last night, Dad said the zanpakuto will help me decide my fighting style when I see its powers, which I’m not allowed to do with the hollows outside.”
Evita blinked. “Hollows outside? here?”
“Yeah, there’s a mass of them out there now.”
“That's not what I mean," Evita interjected, turning around in her seat. "Shouldn’t I hear them?”
He paused. “Maybe. If you usually do, maybe you tired yourself out.”
She nodded, half to herself, falling silent for a few minutes and wondering if her finer sense of hearing was from the crowd outside. She returned to her half curled position. “So you haven’t seen its powers?”
Sojiro shook his head. “I felt something and heard the voice during the fight at the school, but I haven’t since. Kisuke says don’t rush it. It’s only been two days and I only have one arm now.”
She rolled her head back to look at him, still leaning on her knee. “Sounds like you’re make an excuse,” she mused. “But are you?”
Sojiro looked down again. “No, I’m not. When I was in Las Noches, I wished for my powers to remain dormant. Aizen, Vale, the Espada, that demon Sada, even my Dad when he wasn’t himself were interested enough in me because of my heritage and because I faced them head on instead of cowering.”
Evita lowered her eyes. “That’s what got Mom killed…”
Silence filled the room before Sojiro bumped her leg with his arm. “It got me in trouble too, but it kept me from getting too scared. At least on the surface. I don’t think I could go back and do it differently.”
A small smile lifted her lips as she picked up an apple slice. “So now?”
“Now,” Sojiro started, picking up one for himself, “now it’s different. We’re not in Las Noches anymore. Mom needs to heal without having to worry about me and I- I don’t want to stay on the sidelines being protected. I want to help. And I want to make things safer for my little brother. And another - brother? cousin?”

Evita wasn’t ready to deal with more emotions on family so she focused on the first details. “So you're a defender like Kita….” she murmured.
Sojiro shrugged. “Maybe. I won’t know until I start fighting. Sparring downstairs or practicing on my own won’t get me far enough to decide, and I don’t think I can control a situation like that as well as I hope I can.”
Evita grabbed the last slice with another acknowledging hum, sitting up as Tessai returned with a large plate of omrice. Her eyes glittered at the smile Kanji of chocolate scribbled on top. “Want to try some?” she dared her cousin.
Sojiro raised an eyebrow. “Do I dare?”
She cut into the omelette and watched the melted cheese spill out, scooping rice and veggies onto her spoon. She smirked at Sojiro. “I don’t know. Do you~” She put the bite in her mouth, enjoying the pop of bittersweet and fire in her mouth.

Sojiro looked at the dish dubiously. He didn’t usually trust her when she had a request for the meal. There was always a catch. But then again, it seemed the nice thing to do after their conversation. Cheese and chocolate wasn’t too bad of a combo, right?
“Okay, I’m game,” he said. “Give me the extra spoon.”
She smiled and handed it over before taking another bite of her food.
Sojiro cut into the opposite side than her, watching cheese and chocolate mix into the vegetables and rice. Cautiously, he lifted his bite up, glancing to his cousin who observed him with gleaming eyes. Waiting.
“Here we go.”
He put the bite in his mouth and chewed, flinching a little as the bittersweet chocolate syrup clashed with the warm, tangy, aromatic vegetables. He’d had worse. Ha! he grinned.
She watched him.
And Sojiro started turning red as the chili peppers hit his tongue, bending over as all the flavors rioted in his mouth.
