stand--ablaze started following you
Impassive, wintry jade orbs scoured over the Quincy. His determination and resolute nature in the face of inimical, absolute loss had been both sterile and forlorn. There was little he held for the bespectacled youth, other than a distance one might keep when glowering before a rather antagonistic, scrambling mound of trash. His unimpressed visage both reflected and contrasted the surprised antimony of the other.
“Had you thought I was no more? I suppose that goes to show you just how imperceptive you really are.” His glance darkened, miserable complexion forging one of depreciation and cruelty. “Not only could you scarcely control yourself against all odds, but even now you contradict that level-headed persona you constantly struggle to maintain.”
Uryu narrowed his eyes dangerously at the fourth Espada, but somehow he took a step back since he knew it wasn't a good idea to provoke him even in the slightest. He had fought him before, he wasn't scared--not at all--but of course the young Quincy stood no chance against him. There was no vantage for him to drag him into a fight, and also, there was no reason for it.
But it was annoying, how Ulquiorra always spoke as if he was the superior one, considering everything and everyone he found uninteresting as trash. And for Uryu, what was bothering him was the fact that--despite of Ulquiorra's persona which appeared to be the quiet one--he was the one with a bunch of unnecessary commentations here and there. Surely Uryu never expected that the one who always looked calm was no much different from the Sexta Espada.
Completely ignored the Espada's words--which was long yet meaningless for the Quincy--the blue orbs stared at the emerald ones, carefully chose his words. "What are you doing here?"
