👫 for Etsu or Shutara, your pick!
Send a 👫 and I’ll write four headcanons I have about our muse’s relationship:
Etsu -
1. despite the initial reception or rather intrusion; kuukaku doesn’t mind her company especially in her home. etsu’s knack for tracking her has become somewhat of a recurring theme though. still, kuukaku has not extended a formal invitation for the other to visit. considering she’s a nuisance and at times does accompany her captain when she visits.
2. they have similar tastes in alcohol, though kuukaku does prefer a stronger brand. it had been one instance however where kuukaku had aimed to drink alone that once again the other had interrupted her. the presence of two cups alluded to being stood up, but in reality it had been a customary act to honor her fallen brother. of course she never told etsu this. given the others playful demeanor she’d been a welcome distraction.
3. at times, etsu has pulled kuukaku into what she can only label as “shenanigans”. throughout rukungai, various drinking establishments have come to be all too versed in the shinigami. of course etsu can take care of herself, but the shiba’s home has become a safe house for the other or rather a point of interest. rarely has kuukaku ever had to raise a hand to defend the other.
4. kuukaku regards etsu as a acquaintance. despite the other stating they’re friends.
