on the subject of anniversaries

[trickstermentor]

Mun-san, I do believe that after three years of harmonious association between yourself and my humble personage, I'm entitled to a gift.

Yes, yes, I understand that you ought to be on the receiving end too but seeing as we're inconveniently separated by different planes of existence it's far easier for you to treat me and there's not a lot I can do beyond breaking the fourth wall this way.

I understand it's customary for one to exchange leather goods on a third anniversary; if I might request it in the form of a pair of well fitting pants, I'm sure that would be deemed most acceptable.

...no you may not ask what I intend to use them for, after all this time I had hoped you'd already know what I had in mind for them~

Leather?

[trickstermentor]

Leather~

[goneonenight]

Maybe there is a point to keeping track of this sort of thing. I could have been demanding gifts all along.

[trickstermentor]

I always thought I was rather good at getting you presents, Yoruichi-san.

[calamity_jane]

Who could blame you for wanting well fitting pants?

[trickstermentor]

Usually I am quite content with a comfortable jinbei, but there's always an argument to be made for a flattering pair of leather pants.

[calamity_jane]

I certainly have no qualms where they're concerned. (None whatsoever.) It's nice to see I'm not alone. ♡

[trickstermentor]

Then you must be a lady of excellent and discerning tastes~

[goneonenight]

Of course you are. I wasn't talking about you.

[Ugh, don't get your feelings hurt, Kisuke]

[calamity_jane]

Naturally~. I am Lady Jane Judith Jocelyn, Lieutenant-General of the Albion Navy.

[trickstermentor]

I would have been mortified to learn I'd been neglectful in my spoiling of you, I'm exceedingly glad that is not the case.

[Can't have anyone making false accusations about me. Again. That would never do.]

[trickstermentor]

Urahara Kisuke, humble shopkeeper.

[calamity_jane]

There's nothing wrong with that. You are attractive in your own way.

[goneonenight]

Since when do I let you get away with ignoring me?

[Yes, I'd rather avoid being exiled from our exile]

[trickstermentor]

You know, I can't recollect a time when that sort of behaviour was deemed acceptable...

[No one wants to have to face exileception.]

[trickstermentor]

I never said anything about being unattractive, I'm not too humble to own up to that side of me~

[calamity_jane]

You shouldn't be that humble. Beauty can take you much farther than anything else.

[trickstermentor]

Now there I am afraid I'm inclined to disagree with you. Beauty can only take you so far before you inevitably find yourself in a position where you have to draw upon something else.

[calamity_jane]

I have wealth, status and yet I find that my beauty gets me what I really want. (Who she wants, actually.)

[trickstermentor]

Then I am glad you find yourself content with your means.

[calamity_jane]

You do not?

[goneonenight]

Exactly. Might as well start as we mean to go on.

Even if I don't throw mud at you to get my point across anymore.

[trickstermentor]

It is so very nice not to have mud slung in my direction anymore. My poor mother never understood how I managed to get it so thoroughly caked in my hair.

[trickstermentor]

I'm pretty content with my lot in life, I can't complain.

[goneonenight]

What can I say, I wanted to make sure we understood each other. Apparently it worked, we made it past the leather anniversary.

What comes after leather, anyway?
