At least six people died and several others were injured in a shooting attack in Jerusalem this morning, Israeli emergency services said.
A Spanish national has been confirmed as among those killed.
Israeli police said two attackers arrived by vehicle at Ramot Junction and opened fire toward a bus stop. A security officer and a civilian at the scene then returned fire, killing the attackers, police said.
The shooting is the deadliest attack in the city since 2023, when a Palestinian man opened fire killing seven people near a synagogue in January of that year.
Hamas did not take responsibility for today’s shooting in Jerusalem, but issued a statement welcoming it.
Israeli authorities have identified the two shooters who carried out today’s attack in Jerusalem as residents of Palestinian villages in the occupied West Bank.
• Once again, I'm leaving the principal's office. But at least I got sent for actual reason this time.
• Hi there, I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. Near straight A student. I got 2 sisters and 1 insane dad. And I'm a natural carrot top. You'd think with my high grades and all, teachers wouldn't pay me any mind. But no. I'm on everyone's radar. The color orange means trouble. Everyone picks a fight. But, I know how to win this messed up game...most of the time.
• "Did you hear? That guy punched someone."
• "No way, that's horrible."
• "Whispers" aren't anything new, but this rumor has truth in it. (Although those girls could at least TRY to be quiet) The "guy" I punched, was some loser who thought he could get handsy with the girls in my class. I don't know them very well, but I'm not a fan of hearing my classmates scream. So I took care of him. Nice and quick.
• (Tatsuki wanted to kill him, so I just took the fall.)
• "Oh no,"
• One of the girls griped.
• "Here comes that orange haired girl again."
• Orange haired girl? This cruddy school has one? Since when? I turned around and sure enough, there's a carrot top! She's running down the hall...towards me. I...should run, but... My feet feel stuck to the ground. She screeches to a halt and fell to her knees panting. So...she shouldn't of ran that fast. A few minutes passed and she's still wheezing. Damn, is she okay?
• "Um, are you okay?"
🧡
• Orihime's pov
• My lungs...are burning! But...I wanna...pass...these out! My name is Orihime Inoue! I have a busy older brother and I'm new to this school! I also like "weird combinations" of food. (Sweet treats ramen is so tasty!) And last but not least, I'm in charge of the happy feelings club! A blissful hour of doing your favorite things at school! All I need to do is get 3 more members and we can stay afloat. Hence my constant flyer passing! Like right now. But, I REALLY need to...catch...my breath. This tall guy...looks real nice.
• "Should I get the nurse...?"
• (Ichigo said that) Ah! Not the nurse again! I'll get scolded! I shot up. And I was face to face with a...with a...super cute boy. His hair is orange too...And...he probably has girlfriend! Don't wanna get my hopes up for nothing! I scrambled to my feet. I'm not dirty, am I?
• "Hi!"
• I said, flashing my persuasion smile. (It always works!)
• "I'm Orihime Inoue and I run the happy feelings club!"
• The cutie noodle looked confused. But, that's okay. It's a new club, so of course he never heard of it. This is what flyers are for! I pulled one from my backpack.
• "The details are on here."
• I gave it to him, nearly touching his long fingers. He's reading in his head. ...Why am I so NERVOUS!? He's reading the flyer! Not looking at me! Should I run!? Hide? Pass out!?
• "Ah-em."
• Huh?
• "Yes?"
• Did I say that too fast? He had on a half smile.
• "The meetings are after-school on fridays and wednesdays, right?"
• I nodded. My favorite days of the week.
• "Good, I'll be there."
• Oh..my...gosh! A new member! After two weeks of demanding nicely, someone finally joined-
🧡
• Ichigo's pov
• Out of nowhere, Orihime fell into my chest. It hurt but...some softer things touched me too. ...Holy crap! What do I do? Move her? Ask if she's okay? What am I saying, of course I check if she's alright! ...Um. Where to tap? I don't wanna make her uncomfortable or anything. Suddenly, she popped up and...looks raring to go like she didn't just fall? What is this girl?
• I was gonna actually ask that, but someone caught my eye. It was that one black haired chick with the fuchsia eyes. She's snickering with her tomboy friend. (Menoly, she goes to Tatsuki's boxing class.) Why...is that ticking me off? ...Whatever, whatever. Back to Orihime.
• "Orihime-"
• I paused. She looked...hateful and she was gripping her hair. And that's kinda hot. Not angry, but not fully sad either. But, what's the hair clutching about. ...I get it! Those two owe her money. Of course. I would be furrowing my brow too if I was in this situation. Man, people are so cheap nowadays.
• "Ah-em."
• I looked down straight into Orihime's big brown eyes. Shit, she's pretty. She looked down at a hip and back up at me. Ah! I haven't let her go! I stumbled back, muttering a apology. Damn, I'm bad at this.
• "So, I'll see you after school?"
• I said somewhat cooly. She nodded, with the biggest smile on her face. I couldn't help but laugh. Seriously, what is this girl? I just felt like ass a minute ago and now I feel like I won the lottery.
• Rinnnnng!
• That's the bell. Here dies my good mood. I looked back at Orihime.
• "Um, bye."
• I couldn't of said anything smoother than that!?
• "Bye!"
• "See you after school!"
• I waved and watched her skip off to whatever class she's in. Huh, I'm actually looking forward to the club thing.
🧡
• A few hours later
🧡
• Orihime's pov
• "So, tell me more about this hunk you met."
• Um...I did, did I say hunk? He's just really, really handsome is all. I pulled some games out of the cabinet.
• "He was really just nice, Rangiku."
• (Rangiku is one of my favorite upper classmen. She's nice and taught me how to get on Mr. Hitsugaya's good side! He gives out snacks! And she has a thing for Sora. She said she's gonna get serious soon.)
• "Men are nice,"
• She said, leaning on the table.
• "But they all have little quirks and one of your mystery man's caught your eye."
• She...got me there. I really like his hair...and his face. Plus his voice too. She opened her arms up.
• "Come here, tell me all about it."
• I sighed and laid in her squishy embrace. This is probably my favorite thing about Rangiku. She so soft! I could almost...fall asleep on her... Suddenly, I felt hands on my sides. Oh no. She's gonna tickle me again!
• "Don't fall asleep on me now, Orihime~!"
• "I wanna hear all about your little crush."
• Eeeek! I don't wanna pee! Again.
• "Rangiku, stop it!"
• I said through laughs. My uniforms gonna get all crinkly! I tried to push her away, but she laid me on the table!
• "Wow, your skin is so smooth. What lotion do you use?"
• The answer is Cloudy delight moisturizer, but I can't breathe from too much laughter! Suddenly, she stops. Thank goodness. My bladder couldn't take too much more.
• "Oh shit..."
• She mumbled. Wait? What's wrong? I grabbed onto Rangiku's arm, pulling myself up. Is it a teacher? It was just tickling-
• It's the cute guy from earlier in the door way.
• (And two guys I ran into at lunch.)
🧡
• Ichigo's pov
• I'm sure my face is beet red. But, I mean, come on! It's my first seeing two girls ontop of one another. (I'm not a adult film kinda guy) My hand shook on the doorknob.
• "Um...is this a bad time-"
• Suddenly, Keigo's hand was on my mouth.
• "Shut up, Ichigo! This is a once in a lifetime moment!"
• "Don't mess this up!"
• He shouted, while yanking me down. What the f-!? Mizuro put his hand over my mouth too.
• "Please ladies, continue,"
• "We don't mind."
• The older girl snickered.
• "Well, I guess we could do a little a something."
• She said, while tugging on her shirt. Orihime squeaked from under her. She looked just as embarrassed as me. That's it. This ends now. I bit down on one of Keigo's finger.
• "Ouch!"
• I shot up.
• "Knock it off!"
• I snapped. Man, this is a bad look for me. I'm flushed. Probably sweating now. And I had yet another "loud outburst". (Counseling stuff, don't ask.) Orihime's gonna think I'm crazy. The blonde burst into laughter.
• "Easy, easy, kiddo,"
• She crawled off the table. And Orihime.
• "I already have a guy I'm into, so calm down."
• She must a upperclassmen. No one my age would talk down to me like that. She strolled over, sizing me up. ...What's happening right now? She reached out and...patted my head?
• "No wonder a certain somebody likes you!"
• "You're adorable."
• What the- I am not adorable. I pushed her hand away.
• "Who're you anyway?"
• Yeah, I'm done being polite.
🧡
• Orihime's pov
• "I'm Rangiku Matsumoto. The prettiest 3rd year."
• As she introduced herself, I sat up and fixed my clothes. (My underwear wasn't out, was it!?) That was embarrassing. Hopefully mr. unknown doesn't think I'm in love with Rangiku or something. Or a creepy pervert. I'm being crazy. If he ask, I'll explain. Easy peasy.
• "Okay, okay, I'm sorry for intruding,"
• I turned around. She's gonna leave!?
• "You two have fun,"
• Fun? (Why'd she say it like that!?)
• "And you two are gonna clean up with me!"
• The brown haired guy looked horrified.
• "You're a total hottie, but-"
• Rangiku snatched him by collar and pulled threw the door. He was screaming alot. (The other guy followed with no complaints.)
• "Bye bye, you too~!"
• She shut the door, leaving us in quietness.
• "I'm sorry about my friends."
• ...He's apologizing too?
• "No, no, it's my fault!"
• "Rangiku probably freaked you out."
• He turned red and shook his head.
• "It's fine, really."
• I nodded. And hello the crushing quietness. I looked around. What could we do? What's screams 'welcome new member'? Bingo! I grabbed the kitty notebooks.
• "Wanna draw cats with me?"
• He looked surprised, but smiled.
• "Why not?"
• Alright! Perfect time for my new scented markers! (Hopefully, they actually smell like their names.) I spread them out on the table and passed him a notebook. This is gonna be great! I'm great at drawing kitties!
🧡
• Ichigo's pov
• This takes me back. The markers. Cats. And the breeze outside. When I was younger and my sisters were like 4, my old man went out. (I dunno if it was shopping or doctor stuff.) But, he was taking awhile, so that freaked them out. And I remember pulling out my school books and markers. We drew for what felt hours. Needless to say, we had alot to show to dad. Heh, feels like forever ago. Although, I'm not any better at it. They still look like malnourished stick cats. Poor things.
• I looked over at Orihime. She was laser focused. I wanted to peek at her drawing but...I got lost. The afternoon sun made her look great. Ah, what am I doing!? I'm s'posed to be drawing right now. Suddenly, she shot up. I flinched. (Did she notice me?) She turned to me.
• "Do you hear that?"
• "Hear what?"
• I said way too casually.
• "Just listen."
• She whispered. So I did. ...What're we listening in for?
• Mew.
• Orihime grabbed my face and pointed towards the window.
• "It's there!"
• I pried her hands off and walked towards the window. What the- It's a frickin cat in the tree. (Cliché much?)
• But, how'd it get up HERE of all places? We're on the third floor!? Orihime popped out from under my arm.
• "I think I can grab it from here."
• What!? She tugged me back and lifted her leg on the windowsill. Hiking her skirt up with it. Oh hell no. I gripped her waist.
• "Orihime!"
• She turned around, looking genuinely confused. I snatched my hands back.
• "Lemme get the cat."
• Good excuse!
• "I'm taller."
• She nodded, and got back in. We swapped places.
🧡
• Orihime's pov
• "Let's make a plan."
• The mysterious prince said. He turned around, towering over me. Oh my...
• "I'll get the cat and you grab a teacher, okay?"
• "Okay!"
• I can do that!
• (I needed to give Mr. Kyõraku a assignment anyway)
• He smiled and stretched his long legs out the window. That's my cue to run like a track star!
• "Good luck!"
• I shouted and ran out the room. Just like earlier, I'm running down the hall. I'm hearing alot of not nice comments as I do, but I can't stop now. For the kitten's sake!
• A little more running later...
• "Mr. Shunsui!"
• He jumped and sat up straight. I slammed my hands on his desk.
• "I found a...a cat...I need...we..."
• I gotta...catch my breath! Just all the other times, I come in here, he chuckled.
• "Slow down, miss Inoue."
• He patted my head. (I'm kinda wheezing on his desk.)
• "I'm not going anywhere."
• My lungs are on FIRE, but...that guy probably has the cat already. And it could be hungry. I took a breath.
• "Me and this guy found a cat in a tree!"
• "A cat?"
• I nodded quickly.
• "On the 3rd floor too!"
• Mr. Shunsui stood and tugged his hair.
• "Oh boy."
• "Let's go find the kitty."
🧡
• Ichigo's pov
• This cat is putting up a fight. I know it's scared and all, but I seriously not being threatening. I'm even smiling! (That's what's scaring it, my guy) And what's really irritating is, I almost got it. I can literally poke it with my finger. But, I'm almost out the window. If I loose my footing, I'm dead.
• "Come here..."
• The cat meowed and hugged the branch tighter. Dammit...I got it! It's afraid to fall! Just like me. I can do this. I saved one of Karin's friend before. Still shaking like crazy, I lowered my hands.
• "Fall right here,"
• I said, in my softest voice.
• "You're gonna be okay..."
• Slowly, the cat began to relax. (Although It looked at me with a oddly expressive face as like it was trying to call bull shit.) After a little time, it fell into my hands. It's a tad heavy, but it's nothing I can't handle.
• A much bigger hand grabbed my other leg. I shivered. Which teacher did she bring!?
• "I gotcha kid."
• Ohh, it's Mr. Shunsui. (Glad she didn't get crazy Coach Zaraki)
• After a little pulling and touching places, I hoped no man would. I was back inside.
• But, without the cat. When did I drop it!
🧡
• Orihime's pov
• "Ichigo, what's wrong-"
• The cat.
• "Eeek! Where's the cat!?"
• We both pushed Mr. Shunsui out of the way and looked out the window. Where is it!? Where is it!? (I hope I'm not saying this outloud.)
• "There it is!"
• Ichigo shouted, pointing down. I hopped on his arm, getting a closer look. Down below, I saw a dark skinned guy with wavy hair. He had the kitty in his hands. (The poor thing was trembling) Have I met him before? He looked up at us.
• "Is this yours?"
• He called up. I shook my head.
• "I wish, but he's a stray we found in the tree!"
• I shouted back. I'm sure I know who he is. Mr. Shunsui scooted me over.
• "Son, could you be a dear and bring that cat up here?"
• He nodded and walked off. So did my teacher. I looked over at Ichigo. He was panting and sweating He looked my way and raised his hand.
• "Good job, we saved a cat."
• Oh, we're gonna high five. I only put my hand on his. I'm too tired to actually slap it.
• "Good job."
• I wheezed. He chuckled and looked back at the sunset. A light wind blew by. ...I'm so thankful for golden hour.
• "So, can I become a member?"
• Huh?
• "Of course!"
• "This is the most fun I had in weeks!"
• He looked over at me.
• "And cause your a nice guy!"
• I don't want him to think he's just a source of entertainment or anything. Ichigo stuck out his hand.
• "Agreed?"
• I smiled.
• "Agreed!"
• We shook hands.
• "Welcome to the happy feelings club."
°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°
• "Orihime,''
• (We're putting the stuff away.)
• "Yeah?"
• "How come you suddenly know my name?"
• I know I forgot to tell her about it. She thought for a moment.
• "The cat you drew earlier!"
• "You signed it."
• Ah, she saw it!?
• "That's great."
• I said with a fake smile. She nodded.
• "It's going on your nametag!"
• Huh!?
°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°
This was so long! But, y'know what, first episodes are always long. (And I may of done it on my tablet) Anyway, I really like this one. I can't wait for the next episode. Stay cool!

Getting to the level of done where I wanna wipe my Tumblr from existence
If your are a follower of my stuff PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THATS GOOD IN THE WORLD SHOW YOU ARE A PERSON IF YOU DONT I WILL THINK YOU ARE A BOT AND BLOCK YOU
So um, my abyssal Diluc is finished. I started a totally new draft last Tuesday, and well... It's finally done.
I'm finally happy with everything in it. The ending will need work, and I expect it to be closer to 30k when I've finished editing, but yeah. The plan is to give my brain some downtime; like a week. Then come back and do a week of edits, so hopefully, it will be out in early march.
Thanks for your patience with me through this. It's been a journey.
Shit like really pisses me off. If you can report this asshole! Gonna have to contact ebay.
Heres the link to the listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334073894468?hash=item4dc85b1644:g:ILwAAOSwNLNg6~LB
You can't pick any gift for your acquaintances?. You have trouble in picking quality goods?.
Also if you see anymore of these shirts online, its not me, i only have this sticker design up on redbubble. This makes artists not wanna post their work online. How hard is it to keep your filthy hands off shit that doesn’t belong to you
What have I been up to? Flopping around in bed for no good reason, eating snacks, singing ballads, refusing to brush my hair and just bein a horrible lil crecher. Stop asking why I haven't posted any selfies. I dont have the spoons to perform for you right now. You don't actually want to know what I'm up to. 🤟
So probably should have said this earlier but...I'm a little sick and when ya get sick, ya slack off. Like I am genuinely sick, not playing video games, no dress up, no free time drawing, genuinely tired with a damn sore throat and a runny nose. Gears have stopped but don't worry guys, I'll get the pep back in my step once I'm better...or whatever it means
