All right. What's the plan now?

Or don't you have a plan? You don't, do you? Can't say I'm surprised. You never know what you're doing.

Whatever. Just don't take forever figuring it out. I've still got a lot left to do and I don't have time to wait on you.

What?

[ Nope. Didn't say a thing. What's a cape? ]

[repelling]

If you wanted a cape, that could be arranged!

[ Don't mind him he's kind of excited by this. ]

[1stguardian]

[ All of Ichigo's unsure right now. ]

You're serious, aren't you?

[repelling]

[ How can he even ask that? It is impossible to joke about capes. ]

Now, not white, of course. Black has potential, but it might be a little... expected.

[1stguardian]

Ishida...

[ What was it Naruto said? Friends call friends - But we're not friends! Except they kinda are, Ichigo's trying-to-be-cool denial to the contrary.

But the Quincy's off in sewing land and he's probably not coming out any time soon unless Ichigo shocks him out of it. And well, hell, it's worth a lecture on manners. Even a punch in the face. ]

Uryuu. [ Doesn't even stumble over it even when he can't remember the last time he said it. If he's ever said it before. ] You don't have to waste your time making a cape for me.

1/2

[ That is a shock. So much of a shock, he completely misses the actual point of it. ]

Wh- [ What's with the name, but also- ]

Don't be absurd, I wouldn't offer if I thought it was a waste.

[willoffire]

[ AWW YEAH. NARUTO WILL BE OVER HERE.

PREENING.









A little. ]

[repelling]

[ STOP BUTTING IN, UZUMAKI. ]

[willoffire]

[ SHUSH, YOU KNOW YOU LOVE IT. URYUU.

TAKE IT LIKE A MAN. ]

[repelling]

[ OH AND HOW WOULD A WOMAN SAY

HARUNO-SAN

TAKE IT? ]

[1stguardian]

[ Doing the mental equivalent of throwing up his hands, Ichigo concedes to the inevitable. ]

Why wouldn't it be a waste?

[repelling]

[ Get with the program, what is remotely wasteful about capes?! ]

Why would it be a waste?

[ This is getting nowhere. So, it begins to dawn on him, though he should have seen it from the start. Despite what Kurosaki said to Inoue-san, really. ]

Honestly, Kurosaki, rather than use my name, just say you don't want it.

[1stguardian]

Because it's for me?

[ Naruto's spirit of honesty loosens Ichigo's tongue, and the words are tumbling out before he can stop them.

Shit. ]

Look, it's fine. If I didn't want it, I wouldn't have said anything.

1/4?

[repelling]

[ His expression shifts, in mild doses. Surprise, with a dash of confusion- ]

[repelling]

[ Something a little more guarded. That's right, it is for Kurosaki, after all. ]

[repelling]

[ Then, to a more appropriate scorn. ]

Why would I pass up the opportunity to improve your wardrobe? Much as it pains me, we do tend to end up in one another's company. I have to be seen with you.

[ So, a cape, seriously Uryuu. ]

4/4

[repelling]

Acting so weird.

Then, how do you want it? Any preference in style, length, color?

1/3

[1stguardian]

[ Well, now this is awkward, isn't it? He can just see it. That moment when Ishida catches his slip and hell, how is he supposed to live this down? ]

[1stguardian]

[ Insults are familiar, though, and he slips into the old routine with something like relief. ]

My wardrobe? My wardrobe is fine. Your's is the one that could use a little help. Colors, Ishida. Ever heard of them?

[1stguardian]

[ And now it looks like he's getting a cape. Okay. He can deal with that.

...And maybe he'd like one. Not that he'd ever admit it. ]

Black, I guess. Something that doesn't make this stupid hair look even worse. And long. None of that short stuff.

aslmeosf sorry i had to

[willoffire]

....










...



So. Like a super hero.

[repelling]

Of course.

[ And if there's a tiny Quincy cross hidden on it, well who has to know. ]

NO APOLOGIZING

[1stguardian]

Why? You wanna be my sidekick?

[repelling]

I wear plenty of colors.

[ Brushing it off, not remotely bothered. ]

Short has its merits, but no, I don't think it would suit you either. Just be careful not to trip over it or let it get caught. Right!

[ Pulling out a notepad and pencil to sketch a preliminary design. ]
