You exist!

Besides, if you're worried about Ichigo or Orihime-chan or any'a your other classmates, you can watch out for 'em.

[repelling]

Hardly.

[ ...second point isn't bad. ]

...As if I'd worry about Kurosaki.

[ except he obviously does a lot oops. ]

[malasuerte]

Yeah, okay.

Whatever you say, kid.

[ DENIAL IS A WAY OF LIFE ]

[repelling]

[ . . . ]

[repelling]

[ Anyway. ]

I assume little has changed for you, Madarame-san.

[malasuerte]

Aa, you'd be right.

... d'you get taller?

1/2

[repelling]

You noticed?

[repelling]

[ er ]

That is, obviously. What teenager doesn't grow after two years?

[malasuerte]

Two ye-- oh, yeah. That'd explain it.

You guys out'a high school yet?

[ TIME IS WEIRD, OKAY ]

[repelling]

[ YEAH YEAH OLD MAN. ]

We recently began our last year.

[ Pause. A smirk begins to creep as he continues, casually: [

Kurosaki's been pimping himself out to the highest bidder.

[malasuerte]

[ THANK YOU FOR THAT MENTAL IMAGE

but it's cool, he can play along ]

Yeah? Sounds like he's in high demand.

... was just a matter'a time, y'know.

[repelling]

[ NO PROBLEM BRO ]

Very high. He doesn't go cheap, either. I've offered to manage him, but he refuses to give me a cut.

Even you noticed?

[malasuerte]

You'd think a guy like him would need a manager.

And hey, I've already got the paperwork filled out for when he dies...

[ IT'S CALLED DIBS ]

[repelling]

He's proved shockingly capable thus far, but yes, one would think.

[ wait what ]

...Seriously?

[ It... isn't that surprising but wow. ]

[malasuerte]

Like I said. High demand.

[ look no one wants to be sideswiped by other divisions ]

What'd you get up to in the last couple years, anyway?

[ BESIDES GETTING TALLER AND CHANGING YOUR HAIR ]

1/2

[repelling]

I suspect Kurosaki might protest.

[ After all, serving under Kenpachi... ]

[repelling]

Nothing out of the ordinary. Schoolwork, serving as President of the Handicrafts Club, assisting Urahara-san with hollows, becoming Student Council President.

[malasuerte]

Wow, president. Nice job keepin' the hollows in check, too!

[ EXCUSE HIM IF HE SOUNDS LIKE HE'S TRYING NOT TO LAUGH ]

And uh, far's Ichigo goes, I don't think he's gonna have a choice.

[ it's either ichigo's skin or his on the line...! ]

1/2

[repelling]

[ WOW HE WASN'T EVEN BOASTING WHAT IS THAT TONE. ]

I don't- if you didn't want to know- ffktk, shut up.

[repelling]

...Poor Kurosaki.

[ ... ]

I think I've already asked, but how about you and the 11th? Soul Society, too.

[malasuerte]

Handicrafts just didn't sound like somethin' that fit in there, is all!

[ he still thinks you're cool! ]

Soul Society, ah. It's different. Everyone dresses an' looks the same for a half century an' then two years, they all decide they could go for a change'a pace.

[ HONESTLY IT'S KINDA WEIRD!! ]

Zaraki Division ain't too different, but the place is gettin' pretty lenient when it comes to humans.

[repelling]

Handicrafts are very respectable.

[ r-really? ]

As strange as that initially is, Soul Society did experience quite a bit of tumult leading into those two years. In comparison, though I'm not very familiar with the history, perhaps the previous fifty were near-stagnant.

[ okay he's asking for it but he can't help it ]

On that note- what, no mohawk? Afro? Even a mustache?

[ ...don't picture it don't picture it don't picture it don't picture it ]

Is it?

[ A careful question. Humans, or just a certain substitute ahinigami? ]

[malasuerte]

Like I'd go for somethin' that pointless!

[ oh my god don't rub it in, HE GOT SHOULDER ARMOR, OKAY

in that vein, it probably is just ichigo but ichigo's got that whole PAVE THE WAY FOR POSSIBLE SUCCESSORS deal going on ]

And yeah, seems that way. Might just be Ichigo, but we'll see the next time someone breaks in an' wins against a couple captains.

Probably were just drivin' ourselves into a corner while Aizen was around, so whatever's happening now ain't really a bad thing.

[repelling]

[ Is it pointless only because he can't have it? But, he won't rub it in. Madarame-san didn't actually laugh at him, so.

Shoulder armor is cool, even if it isn't a cape. ]

Which could be right around the corner, I'm sure. [ dryly. ]

And who knows just how far, and in what ways, his influence had extended. Not that all of Soul Society's flaws can be blamed on Aizen.

[ this is possibly not the best topic to continue. ]

[malasuerte]

[ THAT IS IN FACT WHY IT'S POINTLESS

also yeah, he's not too good at politics anyway, their division sort of stayed out of it ]

What, you got plans to follow in his footsteps or somethin'?

[ BECAUSE THAT WOULD MOST ASSUREDLY BE FUN AS HELL ]
