long time no see !! i haven't been doing much rp at all recently, but i'm tentatively shifting focus to an original character at @impurgatoria. if you miss writing with me (or are going "oh my god who is this i haven't seen him in like a billion years") you should go say hi! suffering through finals rn so things will be slow, but i'm hoping to get back into the swing of writing.

long time no see...sorry for dropping off the face of the earth (and not getting to the starters i promised. whoops). i've had very little bleach muse in general lately; however, i have been working for the last month or so on an original character who i will be bringing to tumblr soon, so stay tuned for that!

-> There is a fine thin line between honesty and deception, and all great lies stand with a foot on either side to keep someone from becoming suspicious. Even better was the truth which appeared to be a lie; when someone tried to bite you back for it, they would have no ground to stand on. You were honest, after all. ——Lyric knows the way his thoughts must twist around the facts he knows about them, it has been designed that way, intentionally or unintentionally. It was a safeguard to keep them from being plucked from the group the way a wounded deer is, or a fawn: if it was impossible to tell what Lyric was or was not, others would be more hesitant to attack them. Supposedly.
"... Sakanade, huh?"
-> That name doesn't mean anything to them. Hardly any of them do, since the sword is not theirs and Lyric does not know the extent of the Captain's abilities; were they conscious of the danger of his shikai, perhaps they would become more frantic or skittish. But they aren't, so they don't. They walk forward instead. A Captain makes a good escort.
"A sword... ? No, I don't have one."
-> The students of the academy were not granted asauchi right away, they had to earn them, and then keep them on their person always to imprint them with their soul. But what use did a dragonclad have for an asauchi? A non Shinigami? Attending the Academy was practically a formality of their transfer, meant to facilitate their social life and physical skills for better study under the microscope of the 12th division. Lyric had in some sense of the term already been selected without ever being expected to showcase their skills and worth——Captain Bansui of the Kido Corps had a shine and use for them. Had a place. Like horns on the mantle, Lyric was removed of choice to be headhunted.
"They didn't think I needed it."
" yeah. sakanade. "
nothing but sand on the horizon, as they walk along. shinji does his best to look for anything interesting, really, but after a certain amount of sand his eyes just start to glaze over. besides, he's not convinced he'll come across anything or anyone more interesting than the mystery whom he's following through the endless desert.
no sword. almost certainly not an arrancar, then; his suspicion, confirmed. but if not an arrancar, then what? not human, certainly, unless they're the strangest fullbringer shinji's ever seen. not a quincy. certainly not a shinigami.
mystery, mystery.
and then this mystery continues, finishing their thought, and a few things — don't click into place, not quite, but start to shuffle themselves in the vague direction of understanding.
they didn't think i needed it. a zanpakuto. shinji doesn't think that the hollows give out zanpakuto; as far as he knows, being an arrancar comes with the bonus perk of a zanpakuto pretty much guaranteed.
the arrancar don't control who gets a zanpakuto. but shinji sure as hell knows of a governing body that does.
" do they know yer out here? the, uh, the higher-ups. "
vague enough that if he's wrong, he can play it off. specific enough that if he's right, they'll have a general idea of who he means.
WISEDOM WAS SOMETHING LOST TO MANY . it would appear as though shinji was one of few that maintained a sense of such thing . perhaps that was why he remained so . . . respected , in his own right . still , she could not help the need to pick & probe , like the spider trailing up & down someone's neck .
she gives a smile , eyes hint something akin to amusement there lingering . shutara noted the suggestion , making her mentally roll her eyes .
he was no fun .
❛ very well , i suppose i have some respect to your loyalty to fashion . ❜ shutara said as she glided closer to him , multiple hands outreaching toward him . ❛ i will need to get some messurements , of course . i cannot have anything imperfect walking around . ❜
she's playing with him. shinji can't say he particularly likes being on the receiving end of it. it makes his skin crawl with discomfort and a strange sort of irritation, and he really wishes he wasn't here, but damn him and damn his pride and damn his inability to back down.
" measurements, huh? "
it would be entirely pointless to try and hide the way he watches those hands of hers, not quite nervous but certainly cautious, so he doesn't even bother attempting to disguise his apprehension.
" well, i wouldn't wanna be lookin' imperfect either, so we're on the same page. pretty convenient! "
a pause. he wrinkles his nose.
" so, uh. what exactly does takin' measurements look like? need me to strip down or somethin'? "
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤAT LONG LAST, does softened, frayed song, end. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤThere was, from here, nothing left to echo, but the ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤsilence of it. BUT SILENCE. His voice cuts through ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤit, and Isaak can near SWEAR he hears a tremble.
Curious, what he has in hand ; Many visitors, to this place do not carry such effects. Things smaller, to cut ropes, perhaps something shaped a bit more OBLONG, with a flashing light when a trigger pulls ... But this ; no, this, too, was new. Twisted digits, in their odd length, drag along shop structures, eyes slow to blink. I CAN'T SEE ! They'd all cry out, before one by one, they were hunted down as naught but feral little beasts. Would this one run the same ? Would this one SCREAM the same ? Would his camera drop, crack, fracture, like so many others that littered this place ? Or would he run ? Run, to the very corners of the darkness, where even Isaak did not tread ? To dread escalators, long since moving, covered in flaking, dried blood, with no bottom in sight ? A shudder ; A LAUGH !
ㅤㅤThis place may be home, but it had boundaries. RULES. Like any other home.
A pause ; not grand, no introduction — and through the lowlight, is query spotted. Clothed in white, and black, with hair as golden as the sun above. A tip, of its' head, and it wonders, what in the name of HEAVEN he was doing down here ? Humans, did not care when humans vanished. They PRETENDED, for a short while ... manipulated the narrative to make it seem as if worthless lives had some vague IMPORTANCE. But this man ... perhaps, an angel.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤIT'D NEVER EATEN, ONE OF THOSE.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ❝ W-W-Welcome ... Not ... HUMAN ... ❞
shinji frowns, squints. something moves in the shadows, at the very least vaguely human in silhouette. what might be pale hair spills every which way, and long limbs stretch strangely. his weight shifts to the balls of his feet, ready to attack. or perhaps ready to flee.
it laughs, speaks, and its voice almost hurts to listen to, entirely inhuman. layered, vaguely reminiscent of the way a hollow's screech sounds, and yet ... different. distinct. static-edged, strange and decidedly inhuman.
he decides then and there that he doesn't like it.
" yer real perceptive. "
he wonders if it can sense him. if like a shinigami, it can feel the weight of his presence. if it can see the frayed edges of his soul, if it recognizes the monster beneath his skin. does a monster recognize a monster? this ... creature, this thing doesn't feel anything like a hollow, not mad with hunger and bloodlust. a monster, perhaps, but not a beast.
that makes it all the more dangerous. it shouldn't be a big deal; shinji too is dangerous. he is, nonetheless, afraid. sickeningly so.
" well! guess there ain't a point in lyin' to ya, since ya already know. "
fingers tighten around sakanade. do soul reapers mean anything to this thing?
" ya ever hear 'bout shinigami, down here in the dark? "
