Suzume shook her head quickly, nearly bonking into him in the process and waved her hands. “No, I mean, yes, course I’ll take it seriously. It would help. I won’t feel as weak. I can help you. I won’t be on my own. I won’t hurt anyone. You’re stronger than me. You’ll be closer and-” She covered her mouth to stop the flow of words, but she couldn’t stop vibrating in place. For the first time since she’d been released from the twins, she was happy. She knew what she wanted and it didn’t seem too far away.
“Thank you, Toshi-kun, I mean, Captain Hitsugaya. I mean- wait, when did you lose Hyorinmaru? Are you hurt? No, you wouldn’t be here if you weren’t…”
Her face flushed at her flow of questions. “When are we leaving, Toshiro?”

Toshiro gave a sigh and ruffled the back of his hair. "It's a long story. As for when we're leaving, we'll return to Tenth long enough to tie up some loose ends, and then we leave immediately. So if you're done here in my hometown, you can head back to Tenth Division and pack whatever you need."
He nodded off towards the edge of town. "Or if you would rather not be alone, you can come with me. I'm here to visit my grandmother as well, and I'm positive she would be thrilled to have someone else besides me over."

Suzume nodded again, this time careful to not bonk Toshiro. “I’m coming with you. I want to see where Momo grew up one more time before we leave, and I want to leave her something there.” She stood up with Toshiro, shuffling her feet.” I can’t go into the memorial right now. So hopefully this is enough…”

He had a feeling that's what she would say, and he had no issues with it. She was close with Momo, so she deserved as much as anyone to honor her. Toshiro nodded to her.
"Then let's go. It's not too far from here."
The two of them walked off with Toshiro leading the way to the home where he grew up, Suzume trailing quickly behind him.-END- "Twilight Steps away from Grief"
