Shinigami aren’t meant to play with life or death – but I think after all this… I’d like to disappear, just like how the Undertaker did. Maybe see if I can challenge the superior. Wouldn’t that be neat?”

It seemed to be for their own pleasure in her eyes. But growing fond of the men was what made her upset that they were to be punished for their crimes.
