BLEACH QUEST XIV.5/XV>Since when were you under the impression that there was a way off Mr. Kubo’s Wild Ride?Previous threads archived: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Bleach%20QuestBleach Quest Twitter: https://twitter.com/QuestOpThread (XII) at Suptg- http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/25667025/First, let me explain how dice rolls work here on Bleach Quest. I take the best of three, barring any Critical Successes or Critical Failures. If I have not yet asked for dice, and you roll anyway, your roll will count towards the next time I ask for rolls be it for good or ill. After I get three results for a roll, all others are discarded. Normally I take best of 3.>CRITICAL MASTER IFrom now on any and all crits within the first ten rolls, good or bad, are stored to be used on the next roll, exponential affecting it if there’s more than one.>In the BloodYou’ve awakened your inherent Quincy blood!>Sixth SenseTakes the first five rolls when searching for spiritual energy>Also: Skills:>{------} - are currently at 89 out of 200 for this Rank of (------)>Swordsmanship - are at 62 out of 600 for Rank 2 of Swordsmanship.

>>25743584>I’m giving you a minute to decide if you want to put that 77 hollow xp towards the level or the skills, btw.>Last time:>You nod at him and find yourself back in Urahara’s shop, Honsho sitting and staring at you.>Is there something on my face?>What’s up?>You know, I’m going to get the wrong impression
>>25743604>Wrong ImpressionI say sink the Hollow XP into the middle skill.
>>25743604Skill please. The middle one. Utility from last thread right?>You know, I’m going to get the wrong impression
>>25743709-yup first is offense, second utility, third defensive
>>25743604>{--------}
>>25743742lets go with high spee-I mean the defensive trait
>>25743604Wrong Impression.
>>25743604>wrong impressionTake the skill, please
>>25743604Top skill.>{----}
>>25743604>You know, I’m going to get the wrong impressiona>>25743666This. We need a utility power.Hey Cosgrove, hope things went better for you today bro. Sorry to hear about your situation.Also I had a question: Do you read the threads archives after you leave the thread?
>>25743781and by skill I mean middle
>Went looking for Yoruichi/Soi-Fon H-mangas today>Most of them are futaCome on japan, I know porn tends to not be aimed at my demographic... but... just... come on. Toss me a bone once in a while.
>>25743790Yes. All the time. They're hilarious. Also, because I'm feeling good, I'll also answer one question you all decide upon, but I'll ignore any rules lawyer questions to trick me into answering more than I intend.
>>25743781Nevermind, I want the Middle Utility Skill.
>>25743845I know you're mostly familiar with the Manga and have based this off of it; but, are you taking anime and vidya specific plots/ characters into consideration?
>>25743845will we see rukia anytime soon?
>>25743845This is not the question, BUTWill we know this in-character?
>>25743880We have been asking for her non-stop since she left. I'm sure we'll see her eventually. GAR, regular, hypnotized, friendly, or foe... this we do not know.
>>25743845Where the fuck is the Hoguyoku? I NEED TO KNOW!!!
>>25743843Go whine about it on /h/
>>25743845Now that we know what we know IC; will our Banki be warped or different? I need to know just how far you're warping this world... Characters, motivations, worlds...
>>25743843>Toss me a bone once in a whileBy the sounds of they they've done that quite a lot.
>>25743949We might unlock that weird dual blade thing Ichigo just got instead of Tensa Zangetsu.
>>25743845What are our odds of success if we decide to help Renji get out of the friend zone?
>>25743845Frankenstein arc when?seriously though: How long do you plan to run this?
>>25743845Question:Did Rukia talk to Capt. Tuberculosis about this situation when she went back to SS?
>>25743983Trying to bang everyone is one thing but actually trying to set other characters up? I don't think that's gonna be doable, and if it is I don't think it'll be easy.
>>25743859God damnit, I replied to the wrong post.MIDDLE SKILL>>25743784
>Reminder I will answer ONE QUESTIONThat has majority consensus
>>25744012... that's actually a good question. Doesn't spoil much of the plot, but it certainly would make things interesting either way.
>>25744034HOGUYOKU WHERE R!!
>>25743983I second this. I liked him from the manga.
>>25744034Here's the question."What is the quickest, safest, and most reliable way to powerlevel our Xp for Hollow, Quincy, Shinigami, and Zanpakuto?"
>>25744073Really? That seems like a waste, I mean there's a 90% chance that even if Cos says it's possible, people won't go for it.
>>25744080I can get on board with this
>>25744034Will we be able to explore other places besides the already defined locales of bleach? I mean, plot is already off the rails, might as well see what else we can fuck with.
>>25744080Grinding our way through the plot would be my bet and this includes the training arcs
>>25744080I agree with this question.
>>25744125I agree with this agreement.
>>25744102>>25744080>Hey we've already been stupidly successful with our training and powers, how do we godmode the quest harder and faster so we can sap all the fun out?No thanks.Besides he'll just tell you to train.
Really? No one wants to know where the Hoguyoku is?
>>25744080this
>>25743604>You know, I’m going to get the wrong impression>{--------} - 500xp>>25744034One free question huh?I can't believe nobody has asked this.>[X] Is Yoruichi single, and if no, is it serious or casual?
>>25744080No we are already fine on that front. I want to know about something else.
>>25744169I'd rather it be a surprise.
>>25744146>Besides he'll just tell you to train.While listening to Gonna Fly Now on our mp3 player of choice.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioE_O7Lm0I4>>25744169What can I say, I like surprises in this quest. If this were more "Oh fuck oh fuck the slightest mistake will fucking KILL US" like Meta Geass, that'd be another issue, but we don't really NEED to know where it is to stay alive.
>>25744080>>25744102>>25744116>>25744125Refining it, based on those flaws, and the fact that Cos just said "You're getting too close to rules lawyering"."What is the most efficient method of training available to us to gain Xp for each of our various powersets?"
>>25744201But that's dumb.Why would we want to power-level into the place where Bleach started to suck, and get the best way of doing so, when we could just choose to play the game and learn something more interesting?
>>25744034What's the likelihood of Hitsugaya getting thoroughly and brutally killed?
Dudes can we worry about the lesbian who might be a tad freaked about the fact we just switched places with a doll and left her with some rather unsavory convicts.
>>25744235Because as the answer is just gonna be training, it's actually wasting the question. Wasting the question might be the best idea to maintain the integrity of the game.
>>25744254She's a dyke, I'm sure she's seen enough hentai to know what's going on.
>>25744237I second this and if we have a vote lets let him die the death he should have had.
>>25744254As far as we know, everybody in the building is trustworthy. If she's worried we can have a quick chat, but it's not a situation worth panicking over.
>>25744288It really is the closest thing to redeemption that is possible for him
>>25744288But we'll just be playing into Kubo's hands.
>>25744357Sometimes Kubo is right
>>25744237>>25744288>>25744326>>25744357Okay, as someone who never really got very far into Bleach, but is picking it back up because of this quest, what all did he do that makes him so hated?
>>25744286True but that does seem funner than trying to powerlevel in a quest where we are going to get powerleveled regardless of what we want.Also are we still going to Ghost Mexico to save Quincy Mom or what?
>>25743983>Getting Renji out of the friend zone.Impossible.Rukia is more likely to hook up with her adopted brother by this point.
>>25744288Why do you want him dead?Did he become a cunt after I stopped reading or something?
>>25744400We're certainly going to try.
>>25744395He isn't really hated. His main thing he's famous for is A: having crazy plot twists that seem like asspulls but we're really planned all alongAnd B: not having the balls to stand up to his editor, and letting his series turn to shit.
>>25744411You say that like her hooking up with Byakuya isn't a serious possibility.
I have a question that I'm not sure has been answered yet: can characters display abilities they have not demonstrated in the manga?(Like potentially formerly non-powered characters getting superpowers, and/or shinigami unlocking bankai)
>>25744450He's talking about a character, not Kubo.
>You know, I’m going to get the wrong impression if you keep staring at me like that.Raising an eyebrow, you smirk at Honsho. “You know, I’m going to get the wrong impression if you keep staring at me like that.”She lets out a snort. “Yeah, as if Kurosaki. You’re not my type.”Shaking her head, she looks back at you. “So, I got the basic overview from that Tessai guy. You’re some sort of death god who fights monsters and saves souls. But I guess you didn’t hear that whole line about ‘Ye who fight monsters,’ did you Kurosaki?”>[ ] Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzsche.>[ ] Stuff it, Honsho.>[ ] I prefer Shakespeare, myself >[ ] Write inShe stands up and stretches. “Well, I’m getting hungry, Kurosaki. I’m going to go get something to eat. I’m rather unfamiliar with this area, so I don‘t have a problem if you want to come along if you want.”>[ ] Sure>[ ] No thanks>[ ] Write in
>>25744395I just find him to be a shit character, his personality is 'I'm grumpy because I'm a child and everyone treats me as such' and his fights are all about as asspull-ly as Ichigos, except they almost always don't do anything effective at all
>>25744395Kubo or Hitsugaya? Hitsugaya is known to be Kubo's least favorite character, but is a fan favorite, so he's forced to give him screen time. The result of Kubo's hatred is that Hitsugaya almost dies every time he appears.
>>25744417He was tolerable at first, until he started showing up in wildly inappropriate situations all the fucking time because the editors forced Kubo to appease the squealing fangirls. He was NEVER supposed to be a major character, and it kinda shows. He has metric fucktons of screentime, but no real characterization to show for it.
>>25744488>[ ] I prefer Shakespeare, myself"There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy"
>>25744288Yes. Salvation through death. Double death?>>25744395The Japanese fanbase loves him (specifically the female readers) He is one of Kubos least favorite characters so every time editorial recommends bringing him back, Kubo does so... then inflicts severe damage to him. Most likely out of spite.
>>25744488>[X] Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzsche.>[X] I prefer Shakespeare, myself >[X] Sure
>>25744488I'm more of a Descartes man myself.No thanks.
>>25744464People Rukia Kuchiki is likeliest to date1. Us2. Byakuya3. Hanatarou4. Orihime5. Aaroneiro6. RenjiAnd I'm probably forgetting a lot of people as well.
>>25744488>[ ] I prefer Shakespeare, myself>[ ] Write in: Suggest a place to go. Stay/train/talk to someone else.
>>25744488>[X] Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzsche.>[X] Sure
>>25744488>I prefer Shakespeare>I suppose.You know this will end with us being considered a couple by everyone, right?
>>25744514Second thisand Sure lets get food.
>>25744488>I prefer Shakespeare myself>SureI know a random encounter when I see one.
>>25744450I don't mean Kubo, I mean Hitsugaya.I kinda lost track of the series not far into Soul Society, so all I really know about him is "Dude's sword is WAY too big for his stature.">>25744489So theoretically, Cos could make him cool the same way he's made Orihime more fun? Or is he beyond salvation?>>25744505>>25744508>>25744516And THIS is why editors have way too much power in the manga industry.>>25744488>[x] Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzsche.>[x] I prefer Shakespeare, myself
>>25744488"Nietzsche? I didn't know you were that well read. Rather a bleak view on things to take. Besides, there's a difference between a Faustian bargain and having to deal with an inborn condition."Then go with her for food.
>>25744576Entirely beyond salvation in my opinion
>>25744411>>25744464>I adopted her because she looked like my wife>last night: someone strong, but with a strong sense of duty... like Byakuya! (heart background)Rukia is more or less a canon bi-sexual (pictured) and according to the filler, or at least dog mans imagination, seems to maybe have a hankeren' for the forbidden fruits of brotherly love. This mixed with her award winning personality and sense of charm makes her the perfect waifu.Of course this is Cosgroves show and we already torpedoed the canon relationship Ichigo and Rukia foster, so who knows how things'll be?
>>25744488"I've only been at this a week, and my inner monster is under control for now. I'm king in my own mind. Besides, I prefer Shakespeare."-"Yeah, dinner is a good idea. I actually need your advice as a woman. I'm trying to field some personal problems on top of becoming 3 kinds of supernatural creatures at once while still having a pulse"
>>25744625>I'm king in my own mind>not "I rule me"Do you even Legion?
>>25744576>And THIS is why editors have way too much power in the manga industry.Cut that out. they just make suggestions. Kubo is free to listen to them and make more money and have a longer run, or to do things the way he wants and potentially suffer the consequences.
>>25744488"Is it still a faustian bargain if sealing the deal required beating the demon in question to a pulp and forcing him to do what you say? I don't think it does."Anyway>[ ] SureShe's the party member we're least familiar with.
>>25744561You know it's been scientifically proven that Lesbian wingman/girlfriend will get you more ass than public transport?Actually, wait.Wait.Sweet Jesus, I just had a fantastic idea. It's probably not quite what you're thinking.
>Also, the ONE QUESTION asked, is not in character knowledge and it can be anything from 'Is it possible to romance X' to 'Is Y lying?' or 'If we develop like Z will this change A?'-You have until next thread's start to have your group decision
>>25744703Use her to get a harem?
>>25744664>LegionSpeaking of... waifu wars, building a team up of unlikely allies, us against all odds... We're less Ichigo Kurosaki and more Ichigo Shepard.but seriously cut that waifu shit out
>>25744738>LegionYou know, from Xmen Legacy? What did you think I meant?
>>25744738>"Shepard.">"Chad."It fits so perfectly it hurts.
>>25744733Kinda, but not quite.I was thinking more like using her to sway Orihime into a 'sharing' mindset using her as the basis instead of us.I mean, she REALLY likes Orihime. Orihime really likes us. All we have to do is say we're not totally opposed to the idea and that we don't TECHNICALLY have any say over it since the two of us aren't in a relationship.>>25744804I would believe Chad is manly enough to have four testicles.
>>25744703>I am apparently a good wingman even though we would both be gunning for the same targetWhat?>>25744711Ok guys I suggest we sit on this question and see where tonight takes us just to be safe.Personally I want to know if we have a chance to run into Coyote early before Aizen. He's just a ronry guy looking for people strong enough to be around that he doesn't kill them by accident. If we get to that level and meet him, he would make a pwerful almost guaranteed ally.
>>25744606Welp, guess we'd better hope he gets to die being useful. Maybe he can take a fatal wound for Renji and the Ikari kid can have all his screentime. We could use a medic. And he seems like a nice guy.
>>25744833>>25744804>"Tell me about Mexico">"It was hot. I got hit a lot. So I hit back. Grandfather didn't like that."
>>25744845This kid.
>>25744845Hanatarou is a bro among pussies. Have you seen his Shikai? It's power is amazing.
>>25744845>>25744875Poor Spike Spencer. No matter how many other roles he plays, he will always be Shinji Ikari. Like how Billy Dee Williams will always be Lando, only not as cool.
>>25744833>I mean, she REALLY likes Orihime. Orihime really likes us. All we have to do is say we're not totally opposed to the idea and that we don't TECHNICALLY have any say over it since the two of us aren't in a relationship.HehehehAhahahahaThat is genius.Everyone's loyalty missions involve overcoming their personal demons via fighting and a bunch of emotional stuff. Except Honsho's, which is just convincing Orihime to swing both ways.
>>25744840No really. Think of it like a Venn diagram. There's a portion of women who are into women, who are into men, and are into both.By teaming up with a lesbian or bisexual woman and agreeing to share, you're destroying that untouchable boundary.>>25744931It's honestly bizarre how much time I've thought about the hows and whys of sex when I have little to no interest myself outside a detached 'scientific' curiosity.
So we should make Hanatarou a main character right?
>>25744845>>25744875We should get Hanataro to hang out with Mizuiro. The ladies of Soul Society will never be safe after he learns the art of harem-keeping.
>>25744999Are you asexual?
>>25743845can we blaze through Soul society before Kitsuke finishes the portal to Mexico?
>>25745001Why is this even a question?We WILL make Hanataro Yamada a main character.
>>25745034Better than Renji.
>>25745031>KitsukeKisuke. There's no "t" in Urahara's name. This has been bugging me for a couple threads. Polite sage because I'm being a douche and it isn't worth bumping the thread for.
>>25745031Probably. I mean it all took place over like 1 or 2 days.
>>25745034>>25745049http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTDqc6FylNc
So is anyone else watching Venture Bros? Because I don't want to miss too much while I watch that.
>>25745017Not.... quite?I mean, I like women. I've had sex before, I just don't have the drive for babies and pleasure, which makes sex kinda... pointless.
>>25745073>>25745031we have no reason to go there
>>25745078No one must overshadow Hamtaro.
>>25745073About a week, actually. Bonsai training alone was 3 days.
Didn't Hanatarou almost get raped by Unohana or something?
>>25745095I'm doing bothYou can check in on the commercial break; the quest doesn't run too fast.
>>25745110Wat
>>25745110I think she had 'almost raped' a couple other people as well including Kenpachi
>>25744840>we get him, Hitsugaya has a problem with it>"Winter is coming Ichigo...">+10 to pander
>>25744711Is there any way we can make Unohana go full Kenpachi and survive the process?
>[X] Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzsche.>[X] I prefer Shakespeare, myself “Huh, didn’t know you knew Nietzche.”You blink at her in surprise before smirking. “There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy. I prefer Shakespeare, myself.”Honsho raises an eyebrow at you. “Really now. That’s a surprise. Didn’t figure you to be well read, Kurosaki.”You shake your head. “Have to be. I’ve got to keep my bgrades up if I don’t went our teachers giving me crap over this.”You wave in the direction of your hair. Honsho looks speculative before shrugging. “To be honest, I never really considered it. I always just thought of you as that dumb brute that my Hiem was being tempted by. But I guess you aren’t dumb at all.”>[X] SureYou think about it for a second before nodding your head, a few moments later you‘re back in your body and the mod soul is in his plush. Walking over to tessai, you ask to use the phone. He nods, handing one to you. You dial in your house’s number and wait as it rings.You hear your father’s voice come on the phone. “Kusosaki residence, how may I help you?”“Hey, goat chin, I’m going to be eating out, so could you tell Yuzu?”You hear your father give a grunt of acknowledgement. “Sure. Just don’t be out too late.”His voice turns teasing. “And don’t do anything I wouldn’t!”You slam the phone down, irritated. Honsho looks at you curiously.“Something the matter Kurosaki?”You shake your head. “Nah, just my old man being a dumbass. You ready?”Honsho inclines her head, walking towards the door. “So, where do you suggest, Kurosaki?”>Fast Food >Restaurant>Honsho’s choice>Other>Type of food place is a write in for options 1 or 2
>>25745110I think the 'secretly the most terrible murderous badass in SS' twist with her is the reason I'm never going back to Bleach.
>>25745140Don't let her status as the captain of Medic Squad fool you. Unohana is fucking scary.
>>25745195Let her pick.Fast Food could be taken as an insult, and a Restaurant could be taken as a Date.She leads, we'll follow.
>>25745209Dude, there was AMPLE foreshadowing.
>>25745195Joe's Crab Shack.
>>25745098Kisuke asked us to fuck with Aizen's plans-we should do that now as thanks for getting us to Hueco Muendo. And dad said he was worried about the lack of response during the Ishida incident
>>25745195>[x] Fast Food> Taco BellNeed to prep for our trip to ghost Mexico.
>>25745209Wasnt really a twist. It was always implied that she was a bit.. darker than her gentle nature implied. It was mostally just used for comedy until recently though.
>>25745263Yeah
>>25745195>Honsho’s choiceBut she says anything about suddenly acquiring a taste for Orihime's preferences in food, veto it immediately.
>>25745195>Her choice>... but be reasonableWe will be a proper gentleman.I fucking swear if she says "whatever's good with you" I will flip my shit.
>>25745195>RestaurantBuy her a kebab. Bitches love kebabs.
>>25745195>Her choiceWe really never gave much thought to her either, so the more insight the better.
>>25745217A lot of people in that squad are scary. Hanataro's shikai alone is crazy powerful.
>>25745274We are nowhere near captain level. You just want to warp in and start stirring up shit with 13 different armies? I know we're Ichigo, but even by his standards that's stupid.
>>25745195>Honsho’s choice>>25745305K-kebab?
>>25745269>>25745286Eh. It's just the medic with a side order of sadism seems.... overplayed I guess.>>25745319I never understood the disrespect they got, personally.I mean, as someone who was in a combat oriented job, you don't piss off the medic.The medic is the last guy you piss off.You take a bullet for the fucking medic, because otherwise the medic might not take the bullet out of you.
>>25745195>RestaurantLet's see if Waganria's open...
>>25745195We need barbeque.
>>25745365Kebab.
>>25745390They're in Hokkaido.
>>25745380Well they were more than just medics. In fact most of their work was basically being janitors. I think the main reason the other hated them was because the majority didn't actually go into battle or fight at all(even most of the medical work was at the hospital and not in the field) and they saw them as weak because of that.
Seriously though if anyone could recommend any good soi-fong/ yoruichi non-futa h-books it would be greatly appriciated
>>25745448I think that's schwarma.
>>25745448>picture of shawarma roaster>named kebab
>>25745390>WaganriaDo you really want to be assaulted by our waitress? Also, pretty sure Karakura isn't in Hokkaido.>>25745448>>25745471>>25745478>shawarmaOkay, we're taking the whole gang out for shawarma after we complete our first big arc.
Hey, does anyone know when Armorguy is doing his European bleach quest again?
>>25745497I went out for schwarma with my friends after we saw the Avengers. It was pretty damn good.
>>25745469Unfortunately Bleach has much less good porn than you'd expect.
>>25745497>Okay, we're taking the whole gang out for shawarma after we complete every mission.ftfy
>>25745534Bummer... lesbianism is sufferingThanks though.
>>25745539No no, new weird food every time. Anybody know if there's any traditional German delis in Karakura? Mett could be fun to try.
>>25745471My entire life is a lie.
>>25745594You have dishonored yourself and your clan. I think you know what needs to be done.
>>25745569I just remembered that black Russian guy from Durarara for some reason. TRY SUSHI! WILL NOT MAKE SICK!!
>>25745612Eat cookie dough and cry like a bitch while watch lifetime?
>>25745612I'll prepare the traditional 9x9 grid.
>Honsho’s choiceYou shrug. “You’re inviting me along, so I suppose whatever you want.”Honsho raises an eyebrow before shrugging. She puts on her shoes and picks up her bag. “Let’s go then!”About ten minutes of walking, you see Hnosho pause as she sees a small ramen bar before she walks over to it and sits down. You follow suit.You both place your orders, and you have a few moments to talk. Honsho is looking over at you, waiting for you to lead the conversation.>[ ] Ramen, huh?>[ ] Rather cheap tastes in food you have Honsho>[ ] Remain quiet until food arrives>[ ]Write in

>>25745803Lets not forget that we are a smart ass and ask if all this shit hasn't cheapened her tastes.
unrelated to current question, but since we have ImprovAizen Bro-Gin, and possibly badass exile Rukia, we should have a Byakuya who figured out he didn't have to break laws to do good on his own, and became a Vulcan-level rules lawyer
>Venture Bros on>Thread slows to a crawl
>>25745806Yeah, we're both thinking it, but some things need to be stated out loud.
>>25745806>awkward pause>so... you're a pretty cheap date huh?
>>25745776I thought proper ramen was a good choice and not cheap, only instant ramen is the cheap stuff.>>25745726"So, how're you coping with all of it? Chad's taking it like he does everything, completely unphased. Orihime...she's become...sigh...I think I'm in over my head here..."
>>25745806I'll support this
>>25745929for those of you with Cable, I guess.

GO TEAM VENTURE!
The show's over, is everyone back?
>>25746427I never left. Eagerly awaiting the next post though since bed calls soon.
>>25746447I'm sitting on a post I wrote last night for gut spilling to Honsho that I've been sitting on for the second round of the conversation
>So..... despite being kinda friends we apparently don't really know each other at all.">"So, how're you coping with all of it? Chad's taking it like he does everything, completely unphased. Orihime...she's become...sigh...I think I'm in over my head here..."You sit there, trying to think of something to say, but you don’t really know much about Honsho.“So… despite sort of being friends, we apparently don’t really know each other at all, do we?”You look at her, but she looks slightly uncomfortable as she nods. “No, I don’t think either of us really cared about the other person, to be honest. Why would we? But you consider me a friend?”You nod your head and she allows a melancholy smile to grace her lips. “That’s the first time in a long time anyone’s ever told me that, you know?”She looks at you. “Not a lot of people really want to be friends with me. This is the first time someone actually wanted to spend time with me. Many times I end up eating out alone, so I‘ve acquired a taste for ramen.”She gives you a soft smile. “Thank you, Kurosaki.”You nod as the ramen is brought out. As you’re eating, you keep an eyes on her. “So, how are you coping. With all of this? Chad’s the same as always. Unphased. Orihime is… complicated.”Honsho gives you a disappointed look. “Really Kurosaki, how is it complicated. She likes you. She’s kissed you. Most guys, and me, would die for a chance to have a shot at her.”As she finishes slurping some more Ramen, she points her chopsticks at you.“And yet her you are, having dinner with a lesbian. So what’s the deal here?”>I’m not interested>I don’t know what to do>I’m afraid she’ll get hurt>write in
>>25745820voting for this. better to get the awkward out of the way early.
>>25746592I've had an elaborate scheme typed up I was planning on sharing under certain circumstances with the same person.What's the tone/intent of your message sir? I wish to know if you be comrade or competition.
>>25746685>I don’t know what to doI'm honestly more interested in her than the Hime.
>>25746685>I don’t know what to do>I’m afraid she’ll get hurt>Hate seeing people I care about getting hurt be it because of me or not.
>>25746685I don't know what to do.
>>25746685>I don’t know what to do>I’m afraid she’ll get hurt"Soul-devouring demons from beyond the grave are easy. I apply violence until the problem goes away. But romance, while I'm still not even sure what percentage of me is human and I'm being attacked by a fun new monster every other day? Thats something I was never trained to deal with."
>>25746685>I’m afraid she’ll get hurt and there's no way I can live with myself if I let here or anyone else I care about get hurt because of me.
>>25746685I think a lot of my deal goes back to the whole spooky-ghosts thing and the fact I seem to have been born both their exterminator and bait.
>>25746685"She's determined to get involved in all of this mess, and that includes sticking herself into the absurdly dangerous situations I get myself into.I mean, I've died once and had near-death experiences several times in just this week alone. I don't want to see her get hurt like that, but she's determined to follow me into it all.
>>25746685You seem well read. What does the vast majority of literature have to say about the endings available to someone in my position?
>>25746814I like this answer.
>>25746685"What's complicated? Well, there's the fact that she's only bothered to tell me about it during the week my universe turned upside down. There's the fact that wile I don't dislike her, I also had a crush on someone else, which complicates things. I mean, she's sweet and I like her but.... I never really considered her romantically until just recently.""So I really don't want to hurt her, or anyone honestly, but I don't think I'm capable of doing anything that won't end in disaster right now. Especially since this is sorta uncharted water for me. I'm good at intellectual stuff, and I'm good at fighting. Emotions...." Just kinda trail off and shrug.
>>25746685I don't want ther to get hurt. In the past week so much craziness has happened it's unreal, that and I've found out that I'm such a persona nongrata that just being in the same city as me endangers her.How could I possibly think of a relationship with someone knowing how much danger they'd be in, hell even if it was safe what if she wants kids? I mean I don't think I could inflict the danger of going out with me on another person how could I then inflict BEING me on someone else?
>>25746685Confide in Chizuru.sigh"You told me that I better not hurt Orihine...but I know that I already have. She told me that she was falling in love me...and I told her that with everything that was happening to me right now, it would be irresponsible to get involved, but after things calmed down... I would be able to give her a real answer...but now she's trying to develop powers to fight and protect me..."Huff out of sadness and into mild frustration."I've changed her life... and what's worse is I hid something from her that she deserves to know...how can this all have been a single week? How am I still me? How can she be so willing to accept the monster bound and awake inside me, that has threatened to consume soul? I'm the king in my own mind for now...but for how long...you were right about monsters,""Let's make a deal. We'll be honest about our feelings, and no matter what, we make sure 'Hime is happy with whoever she chooses and chooses her in turn...besides...I'm not so sure how I feel yet."
>>25746904This, this indeed
>>25746685>I don’t know what to do"It's not that I don't find her attractive, I do. Oh man I do. But I'm not really over this girl I had a thing for a few years ago that I was too scared to act on. And now Orihime just coming out and confessing like that's got me thinking maybe I could do it, tell that girl how I feel. But then I'd hurt Orihime, and she'd be mad at me for hurting Orihime, and I'd just wind up torpedoing two friendships. And now you'd be mad at me for hurting Orihime too, so I'd be torpedoing three friendships, and... Do girls have this much trouble with the whole 'romance' thing?"
>>25746890I think we should start here, and when she pushes, let our guard down lust a little and say something like this. >>25746904
>>25746814This one>>25746890>*she's only bothered to tell me about it during the week my life got flipped, turned upside downFixed that for you
>>25746685>I’m afraid she’ll get hurtI'm dragging her, you and various others into this other world filled with danger, yet every time I reveal more of the hazard around me, she becomes more insistence to stay by my side..
>>25746935Sat on this for 48 hours, and just slapped in some minor edits for new context.
>>25746949This.
>>25746685>>25746685"I've never been all that tuned-in with my feelings, to the point where I'm not even sure if I'm interested in her romantically.But Orihime is... the opposite. She's in love with me to the point where using the term 'devoted' wouldn't be inappropriate.And that... kind of scares me. Even if I did date her, I'm not sure if I can match that level of intensity, and it'd just end up hurting her."
>>25746977Good effort dude
>>25746951I like this idea the most.Start off with the usual confrontational dismissive tone, and then be honest.
>>25746904I think we're overstating things about True Zangetsu.Like to this Ichigo, he's not really been much more than aggressive and kind of unnerving.
>>25746949>blatant Tatsuki panderingno
>>25747056Seriously, he basically became our bitch after we beat him, he was really nice last time we talked.
>>25747114Eh, even before we beat him he wasn't all that bad.
>>25747114We still think he's the Hollow in us, and it has only been a few days. We need to stay strong to keep him in check, but I think we might still be worried about the whole soul eating monster part of us.
Rolled 86>>25746685Sigh."Everybody has something about them that drives them above all else. Most people don't know what it is, what makes them go. The few that do find out usually have something simple, something normal, like money or comfort. I'm not sure why, but...no that's a lie, I know exactly why. Ever since I was a kid, I've been driven by the desire to protect, to always help those who can't help themselves, to be strong where they are weak. Unfortunately, that means I take a lot of hits.I'm always gonna be in a fight, there will always be something after me.Orihime is a nice girl, but I'm not sure she'll be able to survive if she tries to keep up with me."
>>25747056True Tsungetsu has been very reasonable, but Ichigo doesn't know what the guy was like in canon. Without that knowledge, it's reasonable to think he's just lying in wait.
>>25746890my vote to this
>>25747028I don't know, am I the only one who thinks that a teenage boy being faced with love that overwhelming would honestly be kind of afraid of it?I mean holy shit is she into Ichigo.
>>25746890support.
>>25747182Eh, that excuse didn't fly the first time.But talking about drives, I think Ichigo might be beginning to understand that the thing that drives Orihime is, well, him.
>>25746890Cut the bit about the existing crush (we only knew Rukia for a couple of days and likely think we will never see her again) out and this works for me.
>>25747259They're talking about Tatsuki.Rukia's more just a pretty girl we met and kind of hit it off with.
>>25747259Don't think he was talking about Rukia, dude
>>25747234This is a really good point. We should mention just how worrying that really is. I mean, it's pushing Shirou levels of distortion and represents an immense level of dependency.Orihime will become whatever she needs to to be with Ichigo. Ichigo is now aware of this, and the responsibility terrifies him.
>>25747259>we only knew Rukia for a couple of days and likely think we will never see her againCould be referring to Tatsuki y'know.
>>25747259Are..... Are you actually this dense or are you trolling?
>>25747289Huh, thought he was mostly over that by the time the manga started. Then again it's been a few years since I read the relevant chapters...
>>25747259He's referring to Tatsuki who since Ichigo knew as a kid he must have had a crush on her by default.Rukia is this short little ball of aggression with a pinch of Moe we met one afternoon. She's the equivalent of the girl you met at the grocery store while standing in line and you two sort of maybe hit it off, but you forgot to ask for her number.
>>25747259we definitely acted like we had a crush on her though, and according to Kisuke she's doing a routine report and maybe getting caught up in noble shenanigans
>>25746685"Well she's nice, and cute, and I think I might like her, but OH GOD SHE'S WAY TOO INTENSE AND IT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE HONSHO HELP ME I'M SCARED."Is this pretty much a tl:dr of the long wordy bits everyone is typing up? Because honestly I think this gets to the heart of the problem much faster.
>>25747303>I said I would do whatever it takes to be with you... to protect you... I have you weapons... purpose... and now the only thing I have left to give to you is my life.
>>25747348If we use this line I fully expect Honsho to help by buying us a box of condoms...
>>25747303Yeah I think this is the important point.Like our crush on Tatsuki is whatever. Orihime called us out on the 'muh burden' thing already. And honestly we haven't been given any reason to worry about ourselves because both people in our head seem to think we're good.
>>25747303>and here we all realize Cos made Orihime one of the scariest characters here
>>25747348"You have superpowers, right?""Y-yes""And you fight supernatural horrors that eat the souls of the living and dead alike, right.""Yes but Honsho what are you...""THEN WHY ARE YOU SCARED OF THIS OF ALL THINGS?"
>>25747425 We must kill her to save her.
>>25747425yeah...and we have to decide if we ever tell her that the hollow that attacked her was Sora.
>>25747303Do we really want to stress to this chick how crazy in love with him her crush is?
>>25747463God no. Let her think it was just a random spooky ghost and that her dead brother was resting in peace. There is no reason to drop something like that, its just unnecessary trauma at this point since the event is over and done with.
>>25747463I was going to bring him up if we talk to Uryu why we won't let him kill any hollows.
>>25747459"BECAUSE COMMITMENT SCARES ME"
>>25747303Thanks for making Orihime a sub in my mind. Actually, that makes her character make a lot more sense, so have a non-sarcastic thanks as well.
>>25747547>"BECAUSE MONOGAMY SCARES ME"there ya go
…Aww dammit, stop making me feel bad for Chizuru. ;___;I still say we devote some of our raging waifufaggotry towards setting. her up with someone big-titted, somewhat playful and preferably powerful.
>>25747459" BECAUSE i CAN"T KILL THESE WITH MY GIANT SWORD!""THAT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE USING THE WRONG SWORD, DUMBASS!"
>>25747583I said it before, and I'll say it again.We hook her up with Lisa once we know she exists and get her personality vibe.
>>25747583You know...RangikuxChizuru would be even worse for Gin than Hanatarou.
>>25747583Give her a year or two power training montages to mature and I think she'll probably do fine for herself without our assistance. Which we will happily provide anyway.
>>25747600"But that one's ti... I've said too much."
>>25747600>standard bleach gasp and slow pan to dumbstruck face>"Of course... I'LL SLAY HER WOMB WITH MY MIGHTY COCK!"> Chizuruhasreadenoughhentaitoknowwherethisisgoing.jpg
>I don’t know what to do>I’m afraid she’ll get hurt>ConfideYou let out a deep breath. “Can I confide with you?”Honsho nods her head. “Well, to be honest there’s the fact she only told me when my life got turned upside down. I don’t dislike her, but I had a crush on someone a while ago and while I don’t dislike Orihime, I never considered her romantically.”You give her a glance as she sits there, chin resting on her hands and eyes closed. “You told me I better not hurt her, but I know that I already have. She told me that she was falling in love me...and I told her that with everything that was happening to me right now, it would be irresponsible to get involved, but after things calmed down... I would be able to give her a real answer...but now she's trying to develop powers to fight and protect me..."You give of huff of frustration. "I've changed her life... and what's worse is I hid something from her that she deserves to know...how can this all have been a single week? How am I still me?

Especially since this is sorta uncharted water for me. I'm good at intellectual stuff, and I'm good at fighting. Emotions...."You trail off and look at her as she sits there. After a few moments she cracks her eye open and looks at you. “Are you done, Kurosaki?”
>>25747614I'd rather take the challenge and try to sway her to the binomial side.
>>25747614nah manYachiru
>>25747564Harem endings are for wusses.We are going to turn Ichigo's life into a Shakespearean comedy.By which I mean the story will end with an improbable number of marriages.
>>25747652As you nod she lets out a long suffering sigh. “You’ve never been in love with someone have you?”She stares at you intensely. “Well, love’s a crazy emotion, Kurosaki. It can make you brave, weak, strong, crazy, and it’s a roller coaster you never can really get off of. When you’re in love, you want to take those risks.”She stirs around the broth in her soup. “I’m not telling you what to do. I owe you that much. But, for as much as you keep saying ‘you don’t want people to get hurt’ you’re talking bullshit, Kurosaki.”She glances at you sharply. “I don’t know if it was this crush of yours, or what ,but you’re afraid of people getting to close to you. You keep pushing people-”She pauses and then shakes her head. “-women, as I don’t see you having a problem with Chad or anyone else male in your merry band, getting close to you. So you push them away and tell them its because you don’t want them hurt. So when they distance themselves from you, you can tell yourself ‘well, I guess things didn’t work out. I was right to push her away.’”Hnosho shakes her head, her voice rather strained. “But then someone comes along and they don’t listen to that. They won’t give up on you and they want to be there. And it scares you- more than anything. Because your normal guards don’t work. Because you’re afraid of them getting hurt. Because if they get close enough to you and you lose them, you’re not sure what you’ll do.”She looks at you, her eyes red rimmed. “Kurosaki, tell me. You said you’d be honest with me. Who did /you/ lose?”> Response?
>>25747639>implying Gin wouldn't fuck her straightYou underestimate how awesome he is.
>>25747652...No?We were talking about the 'she seems to be so into us that it's kind of scary' thing?
>>25747675my mom got murdered by one of those ghosts right in front of me
>>25747675> Response?Time for Mommy issues.It's is still probably not resolved at this point because of that dick Grand Fisher.
>>25747675Fuck you. You think you can watch a few episodes of Japanese Dr. Phil and tell me how I really feel?
>>25747675"So... you never noticed that I live in a single parent house?"
>>25747675..."I killed my mother."
>>25747773Support.
>>25747675Deflect. Deflect like you've never deflected before.
>>25747675I watched my mom die. It was...my fault.
>>25747675My mother died trying to protect me from spooky ghosts
>>25747776What, I don't think that's valid anymore.I mean people responsible for Masaki's death1. Grand Fisher2. Whoever took her Quincy powers3. Us
>>25747675>Look at counter top>Narrow eyes>"You've heard the stories about me right? That I got my mother killed? That I'm responsible for her death?">slam table then clutch the back of our head>"Well... they're true. And it was all because of this stupid power..."
>>25747773Start with this and then transition into an actual explanation.
>>25747675Tell her about mom.
>>25747814We just learned that like last night. One does not blow past years of psychological issues in one day, especially when you've got other shit to think about.
>>25747701>AIZEN!>Oh hello Gin>LET ME BORROW YOUR SWORD?>Goo heavens Gin, what on earth for>I... have a bet to settle.
>>25747814Do you think that means shit to Ichigo? The guys got serious guilt issues, and is going to blame himself despite all reason. It's not valid, but it's how Ichigo probably sees it.
>>25747827Where are these stories coming from? Who the hell says things like that about a 15 yr old? Did I miss something in the early chapters?
>>25747814his head knows that, but does his heart?
>>25747814I think he's going for a trauma induced emotional response and not the rational one. Maybe dad never blamed us, but we damn well blamed ourself.
>>25747814We fell for Grand Fisher's bait, circumstance however did do a majority of the fucking over of us though
>>25747675".... My mother was killed by one of those monsters. Practically in my arms.""I don't know if it was because I blamed myself for what happened, but ever since then there's only ever been one thing I've been afraid of. That sense of helplessness. Unable to d anything but watch terrified as the most important person in my life faded away.""I promised myself it would never happen again. I got stronger for fights, got smarter. My Dad's a doctor, so I've been reading some of his medical texts on the side. Watch out for my sisters, watch my friends backs.""And now I'm coming to find out I've covered maybe five percent of my bases, and I never even knew the half of what I was up against."
>>25747827Way too over the top. I don't think we're angry about it anymore (we killed her killer after all) it's just a wound that can't quite ever heal.
>>25747675..."If you asked me before yesterday...I would have told you that I killed my mother."Pregnant Pause."...last night I met the bastard who did...who gloated about it, I cut his mask in half after I took the giant out. She died protecting me from him. I need to be strong enough that no one needs to protect me...I need to be able to protect everyone. I guess in a way...in a way I still caused her to die...mysterious power loss of no..."
>>25747910I don't know, it's a sore spot and he gets pretty broody over it.
>>25747895"Imagine building a boat that can cross that pond in the park down the road, and then one day you take a trip to the Ocean. I'm seriously out of my depth, and the only thing I really hate is being out of my depth."
>>25747923I think this might be the best way of saying it?
>>25747895>>25747776I think these two fit well.
>>25747923>I killed my motherAt least say "I got my mother killed". Also, normal people are not that self aware, they aren't just able to explain exactly why they act or think a certain way.
>>25747895>>25747938..... Perfect.
>>25747895This.
>>25747895>>25747938I like it.
Man you guys are verbose.
>>25747940MY PARENTS ARE DEAAAAAAAAAAAAAD
>>25747984>roll players are a little wordyYa don't say
>>25747960True, but in the original story, he adamantly believed he killed her...without knowing the details. He even told it to Rukia like that after he asked for time off from being a soul reaper for the anniversary of her death.
>>25747984Like a Solar eclipse, Ichigo being honest with his emotions is a rare event worth taking advantage of.
>>25748007Man, I really need to reread the early chapters.
>>25747984It's something Ichigo has a lot of feelings and problems about.Especially since this week he's learned that almost literally everything he thought about his mother's death was wrong.
>>25747984We'll spend the next week expressing ourselves purely in grunts and monosyllables.
>>25747940well technically so is dad... he just has a loner body
>>25748041hn
>>25748041"Why is Ichigo conversing with scribbles on a note pad?""Apparently he had an actual heart to heart conversation yesterday and he sprained something."
>>25747675I feel like we should point out that even with all that being said, Orihime seems -too- into us.Like even if she does have a point, that doesn't really change that we may be Orihime's drive.
>>25748056Actually, he's part of a clan, and I don't think the clans are actually dead people. SS is weird as fuck.
>>25748056No, he's a Soul.Different from a Ghost.Technically.He was born in Soul Society, rather than ending up there after dying in this world, basically.
>>25748082Compare how into us Orihime seems with how into Orihime Chizuru used to be, perhaps...in that Chizuru was a lusty comet, streaking by leaving a brilliant bright red line across the atmosphere...but Orihime is a planet killing asteroid that won't get the fires until impact...and it might throw planet ichigo off it's orbit entirely, if it survives.
>>25748082>Orihime is a plant sent by Aizen
>>25747675>calling us our on our bullshitShe does not fuck around
>>25748179Chizuru, rampant lesbian and professional psychologist.Talking to her about this might turn out to be a REALLY good idea.
Rolled 64>>25748139>Orihime has been hypnotized by Aizen to love Ichigo unconditionally, after she was determined to be the most spiritually powerful, non related, female around us.All for the sake of using her to both drive Ichigo, and serve as a shoulder to lean on.
>>25747675Chizuru is beginning to enter Bro territory.I didn't see this coming.
Rolled 7>>25748267>Orihime has been hypnotized by Aizen to love Ichigo unconditionally, after she was determined to be the most spiritually powerful, non related, female around him.>All for the sake of using her to both drive Ichigo, and serve as a shoulder to lean on.
>>25748267I shit thats fucking fullkubo right there.
>>25748267>and for an unexpected and lethal assassin if needed
>>25747895support
>>25748301Rukia (if she shows back up) makes more sense for a plant though. Even though it will never be the case since we're getting Momo instead of her anyway.>>25748289Too many bros
>>25747895Ding! We have a winner!
>>25748440Where the hell have you been dude?
Damnit, now how can we talk to Keigo and Mizuiro (well, really just Mizuiro) about our girl problems?Chizuru stole their bro moments.Broments.
>>25748456I keep saying it: Lesbians make the best bros.
>>25748456But who is more qualified to teach us about girls than a girl who likes girls?
>>25748406Too many bros? How can you say that?
>>25748481That makes far more sense than it should.Also we're now over the bump limit.
>>25748478It's because they can see the 'bitches be crazy' from both sides of the coin.See >>25748481
>>25748481The guy who has ten girls in a harem? If you haven't noticed Chizuru is single.
>>25748451Trolling. There was an idiot in a chat that needed it. Now that he's gone...
>>25748481The Miz still has plenty to teach us.Just wait and see.
>>25748508I thought the bump limit was like 400?
>>25748524300But /tg/ is a SLOOOOOOOOW board, especially during this timeslot, so we've got like 6 hours or more before we're at risk of 404.
>>25748456But Chisuru is a bro? In fact, I think she's going to be a good bro for Bo Keigo and Mizuiro as well. Her problem was not realizing that straight dudes that get that she isn't into their gender make decent bros. her circle of friends is going to grow pretty quickly I think.
>>25748552Main reason I'm usually able to reload a page and get caught up first thing in the mornin'
>>25748481...Do you know even the slightest detail about Mizuiro?
>>25748511Personally, I think we should buy a hug whiteboard and put it in our room."Ichigo? What is this?""This?" Gesturing to a giant CSI style web of half formed sentences and thoughts linked together with lines, pins, and reference notes. "Getting my thoughts out on paper.""Heavy thoughts, by the look of things. What's it about?""Women."".... Explain.""Alright, so a girl I like has been encouraging a friend of hers to seduce me.... and somehow this directly lead to making out with a lesbian." Gesture to the board. "I'm trying to reverse engineer the logic of that, and gain a deeper understanding of how the hell all this works.""Son. You need help.""... You mean advice?""I mean professional help."
>>25748515Hey Irksome; I've been reading over that Zanpakuto listing for your D20 version... I know you guys are still developing things, but I think you guys could use some "skill tree" diagrams for some of the abilities that I would be happy to make for you since it looks like each of the abilities sort of has its own little tree and a few one off or minor chain abilities. You could always use a little more to make things more varied, but I like this route and if you want I'd be happy to try and give you some graphical representation when things are more set in stone.
>>25748481
>>25748601Chad sees it and doesn't really question it.Orihime and Tatsuki both look at it questioningly, before shrugging it off, not knowing it's secrets.Chizuru laughs openly to our face before giving us another kiss just to fuck with us.Mizuiro calmly pulls out a pen and corrects a few details after barely glancing at it, despite the elaborate code and complexity that we hadn't yet had a chance to explain.
>>25748678Rukia says it needs more pictures.Uryu says he doesn't have time to be wasting on thisYoruichi is a cat
Does anyone know when armorguy is gonna continue his quest?
>>25748678Secretly Zangetsu and Hichigo have a similar board in their world, and one of them always runs off hiding it as the other stays to distract Ichigo whenever he comes in.
Reminder: Acquire catnip before we head back to Urahara's.We've been meaning to do this for a long fucking time, but we keep forgetting to bring it up.And yes, this is a 100% serious suggestion. How can you meet a talking cat and NOT give it catnip?
>>25748720I think Uryu would be impressed by our dedication and obsessive attention to detail, just slightly disappointed in what we choose to spend our time on.
>>25748760It's the most sane and sensible thing we could do given the situation, I support this.
>>25748760This would be funny, if just to screw with him(yes we still think it's a him).
how often does OP post?I followed bleach up until the arc with the dimension-jumping whale/chair thing, a re-imagining could be good
>>25748769"Impressive Ichigo, but a complete waste of time. Besides you should have been using white string."
>>25748769Uryu would tell us that we need to adjust our fashion. Then he'd make us a bitching causal wear outfit with too many frills and crosses because that is how he rolls.
>>25748760Because it'd be weird? That's like giving someone you met a few days ago ecstasy to see how they react.
>>25748810Man, I want ecstasy. It has been way too long.
>>25748810Hey I just met youand this is crazyso here's some cocaineso snort it maybe
>>25748810Do you not do that?
>>25748781>Give her the catnip>Urahara starts panicking>Tries to get everyone out of the room>Activate Ichigo-brand stubbornness overdrive>Suddenly, human-form Yoruichi is lying naked on top of the catnip, high as a kite>Honsho dies from the nosebleed
>>25748830Someone needs to write this parody.
>>25748840>our face when
>>25748810Considering it's a completely legal substance, one might compare it to booze (despite the level of effect).Besides, who else is gonna be her dealer?
>>25748835I prefer booze.
>>25748865Yeah, think of it as a means to bribe information out of her and urahara.
>>25748830And Ichigo nneeds to meet Alucard (Hellsing Ultimate ver)
>>25748840>Go to school.>Honsho openly calls us her new best friend.>Tell her Chad is technically still our number one.>Right when Keigo starts to do his bros forever dance we say she's a solid second place.
>>25748810Its a talking cat.TALKING. CAT.Anyway, Catnip is all-natural and not illegal. Also, I'm pretty sure the actual level of effect is closer to cannabis, at least thats what it always seemed like with my cats. They'd just roll in it a bit, bat around a toy, and take a super-relaxed nap for a few hours.
Welp it's past 2AM on beast coast... time for bed and another week of work. Hell maybe I'll actually get to do my job again instead of just sitting in on meetings all day for 7 hour blocks.Anyway night guys.

>>25748898hey wait a minute that's... fucking adorable
>>25748945Crimson Fucker version.
>>25748898Now I'm having a hard time seeing Hichigo as anyone other than the Team Four Star abridged Hellsing Alucard."Sorry I stepped in, but Ichigo was having a hard time coping.""Who are you?""The Evil twin. Also, the awesome twin.""So....""Wanna see a magic trick? I just wave my sword like this.... AND MAGICALLY YOU'RE A CORPSE."
>>25748918Huh. Mine go berserk and try to tear the house apart...and then they collapse. They also lose the ability to walk in a straight line.

>Its my fault>speechYou look away from her. “I’ve been able to see ghosts for as long as I remember. I couldn’t tell them apart from the living, but I didn’t think it was such a big deal. Until that day…”You clench your fists. “I loved my mom. Not once did I see mom cry or get mad. She was always there for me with a smile, even if I was crying over losing. I think she didn’t want her troubles carried down to me. So, no matter what bad things happened, I could forget it all by returning to her side.“She was the center, of which our family revolved. When I was little, I head my dad say ‘Ichigo’ has the meaning ‘to protect one thing.’ And, at that time, I could only think that if that was true, I wanted to protect mom.“Mom, who always protected me.”You let out a bitter smile, looking into your reflection from the ramen broth.“On that day, and the days before it rained, raising the river level. Despite that, there was a girl standing at the edge without an umbrella, like she wanted to jump in. I didn’t know it was a spirit, I couldn’t tell back then. At first I only wanted to protect mom, but that increased with the birth of my sisters. I went to the dojo for that sake, to get stronger.“The ones I thought I wanted to protect grew more and more. So I tried to save that girl. At the time, I didn’t know what had happened. When I woke up, her body was covering mine, wounded and the girl had disappeared. It was clear she did it to save me.”You nails dig into your palms, drawing blood. “I loved my mother. She was the center that my family revolved around. And even now I can only think ‘I stole mom from that center. From them’”>1/3
>>25749246A Dog set AC-Guy's couch on fire by pissing on it once.
>>25749221True that. We just havent had any good rolling in, I want to say 3 sessions?To be fair in the series not a lot of action happens. Figuring we got our hollow/grand fisher shit out of the way all we have left is for Renji & friends to show up so we can roll a 20 and break the plot more.That or straight to ghost Mexico.
You finally glance at Honsho, she’s listening intently. You continue speaking, your voice rough and throaty. ".... My mother was killed by one of those monsters. Practically in my arms.""I don't know if it was because I blamed myself for what happened, but ever since then there's only ever been one thing I've been afraid of. That sense of helplessness. Unable to d anything but watch terrified as the most important person in my life faded away.""I promised myself it would never happen again. I got stronger for fights, got smarter. My Dad's a doctor, so I've been reading some of his medical texts on the side. Watch out for my sisters, watch my friends backs.""And now I'm coming to find out I've covered maybe five percent of my bases, and I never even knew the half of what I was up against."You give a self-depreciating grin. “"Imagine building a boat that can cross that pond in the park down the road, and then one day you take a trip to the Ocean. I'm seriously out of my depth, and the only thing I really hate is being out of my depth.">2/3
>>25749222I knew that, I was just making a crack at the absurd/stupid thing he commented happening to him.Actually, having him flat out admit to being in the thread explains the random high quality writing that happens in the meta. That's pretty much what he does.
>>25749140Yeah, they do have that tendency. I'm pretty sure at least of them sees shit even when she's not on nip.The drug just increases the behavior exponentially.
>3/3You feel an arm draw around your shoulder and you’re brought into an awkward kind of hug. “And since that day you’ve stopped smiling. Stopped crying. You’ve soldiered on, trying to make up for you mother’s death. You’re strong, Kurosaki. You really are. I’ve seen you beat up delinquents before. I’m sure you’re doing your best to get stronger and stronger.”You look up a Honsho and she’s staring at you with a sad smile. “But don’t you think living that way would make your mother sad? Wherever she is, I think she’d want you to be happy, not pushing people away and making yourself miserable because of her, always looking towards the past.“Kurosaki, life hurts. It wears away at people and we’re not able to fix the problems inside our hearts ourselves. So we depend on other people to do it for us, and they depend on us to do it for them. Sure, we might lose them and it’ll hurt and you’ll never want to feel or cause that pain again. I’m certain you know that feeling well enough. We also find a goal or a dream to hold onto, something to work towards.”Her smile sharpens, and you see determination burn in her eyes. “So take that chance and if you find that person, embrace them with all of your heart. Don’t keep thinking ‘what if they get hurt.’ Think ‘I’m not going to let this person get hurt!’ Pursue that dream, no matter how crazy it is or how hard it seems!”She pulls you around and grips you by the shoulders tightly. “You’re a fighter, right Kurosaki?! So find a good reason to win and come home! I’m not going to tell you to go after Hime. I’m not telling you to fall in love with the next person you meet. I’m telling you to stop looking backwards and look towards your future, Kurosaki. Protecting people can only take you so far. What do you want to DO with your life?!”Her face is in front of yours, her eyes locked with yours.>You have control

>>25749412And I want to eat this ramen before it gets cold-er.
>>25749354>>25749365No you tards. Do you understand how pissed off *she* would be if we did that. Not only is it retarded, but we just told her that we would protect Hieme and not hurt her in any way.
>>25749412>I want to find the sonovabitch who caused the mess with my parents and end them.Eh, both of them kind of seemed pretty happy with how things turned out.Really I'd say the proper target would be whoever took our mother's powers away.

>>25749306"Thanks. Really, thanks. I needed that.""I think I'll take Orihime up on her offer. I don't know how it'll work out in the long run, but I don't have a reason NOT to, and she obviously isn't giving up. Its not fair to string her along just because I've got the jitters.""And for what its worth, if you can actually pull it off, you have my permission to seduce Hime."Are we joking about that last bit?

Rolled 4>>25749306JUST HUG ALREADY
>>25749306Brohug.
>>25749485...Should we?I mean it kinda makes sense. By this point it feels like we're trying to swim against the current on the damn Orihime front, and she's not even my first choice.
>>25749517Hating *that* is completely possible.
>>25749306"What do I want? REVENGE." Then kiss her.More seriously. "I think the most telling thing is that you can read me as well as someone who's literally sen into my soul in this short time. Same thing, stop holding back, stop hesitating and stop looking back when you should be looking forward.""..... I'll try. I don't know what I want, other than to keep doing what I'm doing. I want to help the people I care about, and I want to stop being a burden and dragging them down by not getting over myself.""I just kinda wish this sudden resolve and support didn't come in the middle of my life turning into a giant cluster-fuck..... but then if none of this happened, maybe we would never have had this chat.""Thaks, Chizuru." Give her a hug. "And for the record, if you think you can seduce Orihime before I manage to get over myself, I'm not going to stop you. You might want to not keep with your current tactics though."
>>25749403This. Preface action by allowing a single tear to roll unobstructed down our check and awkwardly murmur "thanks" during the bro hug (not after). Then we will never speak of this again, as per the bro-code.
>>25749570There is no current. It's only Hime with a fire hose. Hell we're not even in a body of water.By which I mean she's the only one who has expressed an interest by forcing herself on us.
>>25749306"I want to do something normal. I want to go home and watch that stupid TV my little sis and dad love while snarking with my other sister about how stupid it is. Tomorrow, I'm going to do something I would never have done in a million years otherwise, see if Chad has any gigs lined up for his band and ask a girl...either Hime or the old crush, if they want to go. I'm going to live for a little bit."
>>25749485Second paying for her dinner, not sure on the Hime front since we probably need to mull this over a bit more. Honsho-bro is right, but it's still a lot to process.
Rolled 12>>25749649Since when does Chad have a band? Are you people just making shit up?
>>25749570>>25749485That basically going from a dead stop to putting the throttle at full and jamming it there.Which, all things considered, might not be a bad thing for Ichigo. One of the best ways to avoid backsliding is to have too much momentum behind you to stop.
>>25749677It never came up more than one time in passing kinda, but yes.He was, at least briefly, a musician.
>>25749603I think that's a pretty good crystallization of what we've been saying.
>>25749677Chad's been in a band in canon since about the time he got powers

>>25749677I could have sworn Chad was in a band, I remember when he first got Shibata he and some guys where chilling late at night on a street corner with musical instruments in carrying cases. Volume 1 chapter 7 I think.
>>25749306I need to get stronger, I need to find the man I've been told started the whole thing, and I need to beat some answers out of him. But I'm going to need help.And Chizuru? Just because Orihime's coming on to me like this doesn't mean you're out of the game. Keep chasing your dream

She tenses for a second before relaxing. “You know, when I said embrace someone, I didn’t mean me, Kurosaki.”You can hear the teasing in her voice and you let go and see her looking embarrassed. She crosses her arms and looks away. You smile slightly shrugging. “Thanks, Chizuru. Really. I needed that.”She looks back at you smiling teasingly. “Of course you did. I’m a lady and we’re much better with these emotions things then you men. I‘ll even let the name thing, slide, Ichigo.”You both return to you ramen and finish it in a much more relaxed silence. The ramen’s lukewarm now, but you don’t really seem to mind. When the bill comes up, you raise a hand as she moves to pay. “I’ve got this one. I owe you, after all.”She looks skeptical but shrugs and allows it. As the two of you stand up to leave, Chizuru looks back at you. “This was fun, Ichigo. Really sappy and emotional… but fun.

>>25749677Ichigo and Chad both own guitars. (Chads might be a bass actually). Not sure if its established that they're in a band.
Rolled 2>>25750051she only thinks she is spying on a spiritually aware family that her Taicho keeps tabs on. When she notices us with a talking stuffed animal and becoming a Shinigami with a Hollow Mask...panic of a hilarious order will ensue. Doubly so when she notices that our dad is her white haired little brother figure's former Captain.

Rolled 11You nod you head. “Sure. Sounds good. It's oddly comforting to be around a cute girl who is unlikely to seduce me. I guess you are better at the emotional stuff."Chizuru smirks at you deviously. “Be relieved you’re not a girl, Ichigo. Or else I’d have used this time to lure you away and teach you the forbidden pleasures of a woman.” Her smile lightens. “But I’m kinda glad you aren’t. Its nice just to have a friend for once.”She nods at you and walks towards the train station and you turn around and decide to go hunt for hollows. Reaching out with your sixth sense…>19 spirit detectionYou find a hollow’s presence not too far away, it seems. Doesn’t seem too strong, but it’d be best to take care of it.

Rolled 13>>25750117Nothing Fancy, just a single slash across the mask. If we can catch this guy in a sudden sneak attack, all the better.We don't need to flare our power too much in combat, lest we draw unwanted attention...lest this scrub hollow turns out to be a fake hollow training dummy and we've just cut our way into a SS trap.

Rolled 20>>25750340grab that thread and follow it to the source
Rolled 15>>25750340Maybe it's Rukia, maybe.
>>25750340>ConfrontAbout damn time someone showed up.
>>25750350that settles that
>>25750345>>25750350I know we were told to move forward, but is this really the best way of doing that?
Rolled 12>>25750340Confront. Rolling for mega spooky confrontation anticipation.
>>25750357If it was Rukia, would it be unfamiliar?
>>25750350ONLY SNEAKY-LIKE.Might as well get a confirm.
Rolled 3>>25750364probably not, but ask yourself the question in a different way-would Ichigo run and hide like a little bitch, or would he get his ass kicked and then get stronger?
>>25750364Yes
>>25750383Damn his in-character stubbornness.
Rolled 12Well, I was going to vote for hide, but apparently the Kubo Train has no brakes....or sense.Confront.
Rolled 16>>25750371because she bankai nao?
>>25750350>>25750379LIKE BATMAN.
>>25750403I don't think that that is how it works
>>25750379...Ichigo really needed to have someone lecture him on the virtues of stealth.
>>25750379I mean, if possible then yes.But I think it's too late for that....Plus we suck at masking our reiatsu.
Rolled 19>>25750340Confront, but be on guard.We really should get some spirit clothes that aren't the shinigami Court of Pure Souls uniform.
>>25750423He's a shonen protaginist, the very antithesis of stealth and logic
>>25750409This is how we stealth.They're looking around, trying to find the presence they just sensed, WHEN SUDDENLY IT'S RIGHT BEHIND THEM.And they suddenly know they aren't the ones asking the questions anymore.
Rolled 17>>25750423he did. That someone just happened to be Isshin
>>25750423We can't stealth, we alwa-Oh fucking shit, we should have stealthed with the crit and auto-learned that reiatsu hiding bullshit Ishin had! Damn it.
Rolled 6>ConfrontYou grab the ribbon and approach it to its source. Standing confidently, you look at a girl in a shinigami’s uniform with her hair in a cloth-wrapped bun. She also has an armband wrapped around her eyes. She’s looking at you sternly.“Unidentified Shinigami. There’s should be no other representatives here. Please state your name, division and rank immediately.”>lie (1d20)>remain silent>fight (1d20)>flee (1d20)>write in
>>25750443Then we harague whoever it is for being late and what responce time do they think this is?!
>>25750489>write in"Whoa there lady, where were you when the Hollows decided to mount a goddamn invasion, huh? I do your job for you, and now you show up and take that tone? Not very nice of you."
>>25750489[x]Other COUNTER! Ask who she is and why is she so damned late to the scene, let alone if she should be the only one posted here why they weren't here yesterday?
Rolled 17>>25750489"Nah"Book it.
>>25750489"Pretty sure it's bad manners to ask who someone is without telling them who you are first"
>>25750489"Wait, there shouldn't? It's my first posting and if I got the wrong place... oh man, I'm going to be in so much trouble. Gottago!"then run
>>25750489Name's Ichigo. Don't have any of the other things. My turn for three questions. You from Soul Society? Why the hell have they been so damn quiet despite what's been going on in town? And why did the representative change from Rukia to you?She gets belligerent, flare spirit energy
>>25750489"Hi. I'm Ichigo, and I don't really HAVE any of those. See I kinda wound up like this by accident."
>>25750546thisgotta stay the overconfident smartass
>>25750548>>25750546>Telling someone your name>Revealing part of your originFuck the police.
>>25750489"Ichigo, no division, Captain Crunch.""Your turn"
>>25750525>>25750548This and this. I feel like the most smartass option is to say the first, then the latter without actually waiting for a response.
>>25750489"Are you the authorized representative for the area then?""Because there were literally hundreds of Hollows here yesterday trying to kill everything that I had to deal with by myself.""Really would've liked some help with that one."
>>25750489insert obligatory snark hereIntroduce ourselvesAsk her nameAsk why she replaced RukiaAsk what's going on in SSprepare for another soul reaper with a superiority complex
>>25750514>>25750521Appropriate belligerence.
What the hell guys? We KNOW soul society is all kinds of disapproving of us, why reveal information that clearly brands us an outcast? "Oh those things you expect me as a Shinigami to have? Yeah I don't have those. Almost as though I'm NOT A FUCKING REAL SHINIGAMI."Ya'll r dum.
>>25750622Agreement.We shouldn't tell her shit.
>>25750585then>>25750608
>>25750571>"Ichigo, long division, Captain Crunch."FTFY
>>25750634>>25750622you fail to notice one thing, unfortunatelyWe've been playing Ichigo as more honest than Abe Lincoln
Rolled 3>>25750489Sheathe our sword, cross our arms, be ready to vamoose if the shit hits the fan.Shit, she's part of the 13 Court Guard...and she doesn't know about us so either Rukia is dead by Aizen, or she is playing her game close to the chest."Sorry, I don't just give out my name to every armed angry short ghost I meet. As for the rest, and you're probably aren't going to believe this part, but I'm just a spiritually aware human who has developed shinigami powers after an out of body experience and am just trying to protect my home from a sudden over abundance of hollows, like yesterday when we were overrun by the things before the one the size of a skyscraper showed up."
>>25750653We didn't tell Orihime about her brother did we?
>>25750514>>25750521Classic Ichigo™ response. I like it.
Rolled 26>>25750608Thirding this, direct the conversation away.
Rolled 13"Hi. I'm Ichigo, and I don't really HAVE any of those. See I kinda wound up like this by accident."You point a finger at her. "Pretty sure it's bad manners to ask who someone is without telling them who you are first"Your eyes narrow. "Are you the authorized representative for the area then?"Because there were literally hundreds of Hollows here yesterday trying to kill everything that I had to deal with by myself."Really would've liked some help with that one."Her eyes narrow. Well then Mr. ‘Ichigo’ I am Lieutenant Hinamori Momo of the Fifth Division. Please surrender yourself to my custody immediately so you can be taken in for questioning.>response?
>>25750687Fine lets goLETS SEE HOW FAR THE RABBITHOLE GOES
>>25750687"No"Then just walk away
>>25750687"You're just going to walk in and arrest me for doing your job?""Gonna need a little more convincing than that, sweetheart."And then book it.
>>25750653We lied to Rukia when we wasted that hollow. Since then we've been super honest with everyone because they've been friends, family, and/or involved in this super deadly complicated conspiracy we barely understand.This chick doesn't qualify for honesty. We endanger ourselves and our loved ones by being careless here.
>>25750707Hell fucking no.
>>25750717>>25750714Some sort of functional amalgamation of these
Rolled 78>>25750687"You still haven't told me why you guys left the town to fend on its own."
>>25750687Do you mind giving me a sec to let my family know what's up?She says yes, go to Urahara shop and fill him in, then go with her
>>25750687I ain't doing shit without my lawyer present.Call dad.
>>25750717>>25750733This, don't agree to anything until she explains herself.
>>25750742>>25750744...What is wrong with you people?Ichigo Kurosaki doesn't respect authority.
Rolled 5>>25750725>lied about wasting the hollowExcept we told her about it later, at Urahara's
>>25743584In the middle of reading the archives. seems like a cool story. Already at part 7 in like 30 minutes. I hope you kept up the quality of work. Probably wont catch this one though.
>>25750687"Yeah that can't happen. See, I've got school tomorrow, and I already catch enough shit about this," indicate our hair, "without having unexplained absences for extended periods."
>>25750714This.Guys, we can't get caught up in Soul Society bullshit right now. Even ignoring the fact that it is a terrible idea, we're mounting operation Save Ichigo's Mum in a few days. We can't do that if we're in a jail cell.
>>25750687"Take me into custody? I'm not really into that kinky stuff, but if you're into girls I know a single lesbian who's pretty cute and probably swings that way."
>>25750775Don't tell her we're a high school student.

>>25750714Yeah this seems pretty good.
>>25750687Will you be taking over here in my stead then? Would you at least call the proper representative for this area here first? I'd rather not go running off and leave my family relatively unguarded in the process.
>>25750687"Lady, you are the least intimidating Soul Reaper I've met so far. Which is saying something, because the first one I met was a purple-eyed midget. And don't try seduction now that you couldn't scare me-I've had way too much of that going on recently."head to Urahara and prep for a fight
Rolled 7>>25750687"Yeah, no. You people seem to do a terrible enough job of protecting the town. Leaving it to you has 'innocent lives lost' written all over it."
>>25750808>>25750809Don't be the first to bring up Rukia.
>>25750783This so hard.Our response is going to be some variant of "no, fuck off" anyway, so lets see if we can rattle her.
Rolled 3>Talk backYou narrow your eyes at her."You're just going to walk in and arrest me for doing your job?""Gonna need a little more convincing than that, sweetheart."You shake your head a scowl on your face."You still haven't told me why you guys left the town to fend on its own."She grits her teeth. “Then you are refusing to submit yourself to my custody?”
Rolled 12>>25750687Meet her eyes dead serious, stare her down."With all I've heard, I don't think you can promise me that I won't get the death sentence just for existing"
>>25750687So did you just hear me mention the hundreds of hollows thing? Because that kinda requires a fucking explanation. No I'm not going with you on the grounds that if you were supposed to be here you would've already been here and not required me to do your job for you ergo YOU are in point of fact the one needed for questioning.
>>25750687Questioning? for what? I'm assuming I still have rights as a soul
>>25750849Look smug "Yes"CHEESE IT
Rolled 5>>25750687Guys, guys, there is only one proper response here.Spinning backhand
>>25750849"We'll see just who takes who into custody little girl"
>>25750849I'm refusing to do anything until you start talking to me instead of treating me like an excaped convict!
Rolled 4>>25750849"Right now, I'm refusing to continue this conversation."We out.
>>25750870This.Then sneak back to Urahara's.
>>25750849"You aren't the most determined girl after me, and you're far from the most frightening."
>>25750849"Yes".http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnHmskwqCCQ
Rolled 15>>25750849Flip her off and run.
>>25750834Godamnit, Ichigo is trying to act seriously here stop trying to seduce everyone.>>25750849(Lie): I will submit only if you explained yourself. The only thing I know right now is that some brat came to my turf and started acting like she owned the place just because she is a LT.
Rolled 6>>25750849"Pretty much, yeah. Good night."And then leave. Sure she's liable to start shit but it'll be just that, her starting a fight she's not too likely to win.

>>25751070"Wait a second, did you just cast a spell on me?Since when was magic an option?"
>>25751086THIS. No violence, no insanty, just shrug off her 'handcuffs' and walk away again. "I'm trying to be nice here, I don't like violence either.""But all you've done is threaten me and ignore the one serious question I had to ask."
>>25751070Flare our Reiatsu. Makes for a good show of dominance.

Break the cuffs and walk away

>Break spell>20You flex your spiritual pressure, easily shattering your bonds. You stand up, rubbing your wrists.“I don’t like violence either. But looks like you aren’t giving me any other options.”You pull Zangetsu off of your back, and it unwraps itself.

Rolled 1>>25751332>Flee!
Rolled 18>>25751332>FLEE!
Rolled 13>>25751332Flare our Reiatsu.
>>25751332>Flee!If she catches us and it looks like we're going to get caught, active the Mask.Fuck the police. They were going to find out eventually and I don't feel like losing to this cunt.
Rolled 9>>25751332fleeeeeeeeee
Rolled 18>>25751332...Wait what?Because the guy who had the 19 rolled to flee?Throw Zangetsu at her as a distraction and then run, yanking it back before it reaches her.
Rolled 10>>25751332fightuse Blut for defence, no mask yet
>>25751366Goddammit anon, you just had to keep rolling.
Rolled 19>>25751332RunSo you're really stuck on this whole capture or kill me thing huh? Luckily I am not a shinigami, I am a ninja. blow up the ground and escape in the smoke.
>>25751366God damn it.>>25751332Flee back to Hat 'n clogs' place.
>>25751366Goddamnit, it kind of feels like we've been forced into this.
>>25751381Yeah, the roll was specifically stated to be for combat, but because the guy said he was rolling for something we specifically were not rolling for, the roll got tossed. It's pretty bullshit.
>>25751360first three rolls.>>25751225>>25751229>>25751230
Rolled 7>>25751402And that's Mr. Kubo's wild ride.
>>25751407Oh it's first three and not first five?Forgot that was just for detection.
Well, so much for saving Masaki.
>>25751407Right, fair enough. Apologies. Forgot that only the first 3 non-crit rolls are counted.
>>25751366Ahaha, well we've still got the Mask and Blut to pull out of our ass.Sucks putting our entire fucking hand on the table against the first Soul Reaper we encounter.
Rolled 4>flee>1You move to flee, but as you turn the Shinigami is now suddenly in front of you. Each time you try this, she’s already cut you off. As you try once more to flee, you see her right in front of you and she slams a foot down into your stomach sending you flying down to the ground.This girl, she reminds you of when you were dealing with Yoruichi…>actions?
Rolled 11>>25751332Ask to talk it out
Rolled 7>>25751507mimic Yoruichi's motions, try to get behind this girl
Rolled 19I'll shift this response to this question>>25751509>>25751507
Rolled 10>>25751507...Stand ground, focus energies exclusively on defense.If we can't dodge her, and attacking her isn't effective, we just have to out-endure her.
Rolled 13>>25751507we can't get away fast enough? Getsuga Tensho
Rolled 19>>25751507Okay seriously why are you so set on catching me anyway?
Rolled 12>>25751507Fuck running normallyKICK HER IN THE FACEThen run
Rolled 20>>25751463We'll move heaven and earth just to find out if Fisher was lying or not. Once we know, the very walls of reality will not hold us back.Solemnly, regretfully."What I am by birth is already enough for them to condemn me to death twice over. I will not set foot in the Seiretei as a prisoner...there is still someone I need to save."
Rolled 10>>25751507>>25751523>mimic Yoruichi's motions, try to get behind this girlOh shit, time for the kubo maneuver.
Rolled 5>>25751507Flare reiatsu, hope to draw attention while continuing trying to flee?
>>25751523>>25751556Now this... this is Kubo.
>>25751556I like it. Supporting.
>>25751556No, no giving hints like that.Nice roll though.
Rolled 11>>25751556You stupid fuck. You do NOT volunteer damaging intel to the other side like that!
>>25751556That 20 better not mean that that option auto-won.Saying way WAY too much.
>mimic Yoruichi to get behind her>try to talk it out>20You narrow you eyes and, trying to mimic Yoruichi, move to appear behind her. You see her stiffen in surprise as you put your hand on her shoulder.“Look can we talk this out? What I am by birth is already enough for them to condemn me to death twice over. I will not set foot in the Seiretei as a prisoner...there is still someone I need to save."You see her double over, grabbing her stomach in pain. As you turn her around, you notice a white caustic substance rising out of her mouth, beginning to cover her face rapidly.The spiritual presence around her now reminds you of a hollow.BLEACH QUEST XIV.5 ENDTO BE CONTINUED
>>25751652Then I take back the death sentence line, but the prisoner line and someone left to save stand.
Rolled 14>>25751556You don't casually drop shit like that to someone who'll use it against you fuck wad
>>25751682Uhh... Wow.Shit just got real.
>>25751682...NOW THIS IS WHAT IT MEANS TO KUBO
>>25751682roflwe literally killed momoagain.
Rolled 15>>25751682>You see her double over, grabbing her stomach in pain. As you turn her around, you notice a white caustic substance rising out of her mouth, beginning to cover her face rapidly.>The spiritual presence around her now reminds you of a hollow.U wot
>>25751682>reminder: you all DO still have a question you should all decide upon before next game
Rolled 5>>25751682I FUCKING KNEW SOMETHING WAS IN THAT TEA! I vote we find Shinji with her ASAP
>>25751682KUBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
>>25751682And now all of a sudden it doesn't matter what we tell her.Well we know where to go.
>>25751682Oh wowWe hollowify shinigami by touching them nowThat's... probably not good
>>25751682Well fuck
>>25751713What is the current status of Rukia Kuchiki?
>>25751703Well then, mono, welcome to the outlaw club.
>>25751733Uh, no. Remember in the interlude a while back, when Aizen gave her some tea and she doubled over in pain?THE TEA WAS HOLLOW JUICE
Rolled 14>>25751733>implying Ichigo did this
>>25751733I think it's more that Aizen pumped her full of his magic hollow sprog; and therefore transforms when in proximity to vaizards like us. Remember how shit went down in the big flashback arc?
>>25751733That's not what happened, but we have no way of knowing that....Actually that's a pretty fun thing to believe.
>>25751682>The first "bonus" party member has appeared!>Are you a bad enough dude to save her before she goes full Hollow?
>>25751768Don't we just need to let her chase us to Urahara's?
Rolled 9>>25751682>You see her double over, grabbing her stomach in pain. As you turn her around, you notice a white caustic substance rising out of her mouth, beginning to cover her face rapidly.>>The spiritual presence around her now reminds you of a hollow.SHeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetttt-One roll for the bank.
>>25751768Hate to get all meta but she thinks the world of Aizen even without needing to be hypnotised into doing so, and she has been hypnotised, she's bent sent to us as a mole
>>25751744He said it was a new brew he wanted to try. Oh well, next episode we're off to the Shoten...unless this just looks like a hollowfication without the rietsu...in which case, it is a trap within a trap. Or saving her life is also the trap....AIZEN!
>>25751744>>25751761No metgaming, as far as Ichigo knows he just hollowified a girl by touching her shoulder
Rolled 4>>25751682WHAT IS HAPPENING.WHAT AM I PLAYING.GODS, IS THIS REAL LIFE.
Rolled 13>>25751804No she's been sent to us to suffer a tragic accident that leads to the death of the Kurosaki family while keeping his hands clean and gaining more freedom of movement because he's 'in mourning'.
>>25751846That too
Rolled 17>>25751827Coulda sworn Urahara mentioned Aizen's apparent dickery with hollowification. Not too much of a cognitive leap to think he just MIGHT be involved with Momo's current state.
>>25751827And as soon as we talk to Urahara and the Visards, they'll tell us thats bullshit and it doesn't work that way.On the other hand, she's Aizens lieutenant. You know, the same Aizen who we know enjoys hollowifying his allies for fun and profit? Once that little tidbit comes up, I think we'll be able to put two and two together.
Rolled 5>>25751846>that leads to the death of the Kurosaki familyYou think he has changed his canon opinion of us already?
>>25751827I'm pretty sure Ichigo wouldn't default to "OH GOD I TURN PEOPLE INTO HOLLOWS". For all he knows a Hollow's pulled an Alien and facehugged her. It's just far more likely that it's the result of something that happened before she showed up in town.
>>25751880True, but we don't know anything about Momo, certainly not that she's Aizen's second-in-command
>>25751888He sent Momo as a Hollow!Bomb on a suicide mission.I think he's beyond giving a fuck.
Okay, so for questions, so far the only reply since Cosgrove's reminder has been:What is the status of Rukia?Do we want to go with that, or are people going to start pitching in suggestions?
>>25751909Urahara and Shinji should upon seeing/hearing that she's 5th division lieutenant extrapolate her relation with Aizen
Rolled 11>>25751888Well if I was gonna meta game that's one way I'd look at it. The other is that Aizen probably has someone watching this fight and is waiting to see what happens. He already learned that the hollow juice works now he just needs to findout whether or not we lead him to the Viazard and/or Urahara.
>>25751909No but Urahara/Yoruichi/Shinji certainly wil. Remember that she told us she was from Squad 5, they'll make the connection instantly.Its not like we need that information right away anyway. We're going to be much too busy trying to fix the fucking problem to bother laying out blame.
>>25751945The full question should be "What has happened to Rukia since we last saw her, as told through the lost art of the Poetic Edda?"
>>25751945Sounds good to me.
>>25751945That'll do
>>25751945A few suggestions-Who are Aizen's co-conspirators?-Are any of Ichigo's friends under the influence of an enemy?-How can Ichigo step up his training?
>>25751945Who is Cosgrove hoping we'll waifu the hardest for?
We should ask him what question he wants us to ask him
>>25752090I think OrihimeI hope YoruichiI hope in vain Matsumoto
>>25752124But that would use up our question and we wouldn't get an answer to the second question.
>>25751945>What is the status of Rukia?I like it. It's something we've been clamoring for for a while now, and Cos can make it vague enough for us to go ballistic over which is always fun.Like, imagine he just says "She's in grave danger" and watch everyone fucking panic and go WE MUST SOUL SOCIETY NOW.And if there's not much going on we can go to Afterlife Mexico to look for our mom without worrying too much about her, maybe.
>>25752151I thought we get one question per chapter
>>25751945What color are Rukia's panties?
>>25752132I honestly doubt its Orihime. I think she's being set up to be some kind of bestgirl red herring. She SEEMS like the obvious choice, but that insane level of devotion, it reminds me of the early stages of a CERTAIN SOMEONE. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but just because you're paranoid doesn't mean the girl isn't going to knock you out and lock you up in her underground sex dungeon.Now, of course, this won't dissuade me from my glorious Hime, but from an "I'm too genre savvy for this shit" standpoint I'm fucking terrified.
I just had the best idea, we jinzen with her sword to get into her inner world and help her subjugate her inner hollow if we don't think we can get her to Kisuke on time.
>>25752252...Well Orihime does control time and space
>>25752254We could always just knock her out.
Rolled 11>>25752254>I just had the best idea, we jinzen with her sword to get into her inner world and help her subjugate her inner hollowSo what you're saying is is basically It's showtime?
>>25752254I'm not sure you can do that to/with someone else's sword>>25752310Might just accelerate the process, could KO the 'shinigami' and give the 'hollow' free reign over the body.
>>25752285On that note, could Orihime in theory just zap the Hollow out of somebody?Wouldn't work on Ichigo since he was born with it (nor would we want it to really), but for someone like Momo she would just have to revert her to a pre-Hollow Tea drinking state.Not that we should be giving it a field test, that would be a bad fucking idea. Just something to think about.
Gin, I can't find the mark 57 hollow fixation formula, the liquid born agent in the filter bags. Have you seen them around the secret lab?I saw you take it up to you room two nights ago.What, no, that was my rose hips with champaign leves tea, I got is special from a shop in the 6th district.Aizen, that's still sitting on the counter if the secret lab communal kitchenette...OH GOD! Gin, I drank that yea?! ...AND I Served it to Momo before sending her to the living world!
>>25751682So, freaking out about Hollomo aside, did we just learn Shunpo?
>>25752655Maybe
Rolled 14>>25752655Shunpo and Shunpo aren't the same.There's "going rather fast" which everyone with the least amount of self respect learns eventually, too.Yachiru is hella fast, but she can't quite blink out like others do, so we might still be on a rather low level.>>25752435Yea, her so-called "healing" ability is really just rewinding time, although I wonder whether using the ability in such a case wouldn't just make Momo kill over again once the effect dissipates since what triggered is lies too far in the past.>>25752407>Might just accelerate the process, could KO the 'shinigami' and give the 'hollow' free reign over the body.Seconded, especially since this is artificial.
So, I don't think assassinating us is the primary objective of this little Hollow-Bomb.I think Aizen is trying to frame us as some sort of monster who runs around hollowifying Soul Reapers.I mean sure, if we ended up dying here that would be a fun bonus for him, but with the Visards and Urahara in town he can't actually be expecting that result.
>>25752947Good.We can always just set up Outer Heaven in Hueco Mundo with our new best friends Grimmjow and Sharktits.Viva the resistance and all that jazz.
Rolled 10>>25753057>We can always just set up Outer Heaven in Hueco Mundo with our new best friends Grimmjow and Sharktits.Or stop the spirit train and set up in that in-between dimension.
>>25752892It's selective time manipulation, afterall she could've healed Yamatos arm after it'd been destroyed but she skips the step where-in it took all the damage in the first place merely putting it back to the origional state of whole.There shouldn't technically be such a thing as 'too far back' for her. Also don't forget she's actually able to destroy the god pill.
>>25752892>Yachiru You mean Momo, right?>Shunpo and Shunpo aren't the same.Wat.>but she can't quite blink out like others do, That's not how Shunpo works. It's just moving really fucking fast. And All the Lieutenants have been shown to be able to do it easily enough for it to qualify as having that blink effect. Just not Yoruichi's fuckoff-nuts level.Arrancar Sonido is a lot closer to bamf-ing than Shunpo is; which is one of the reasons the espada gave SS such shits early on.
>>25752892>Yea, her so-called "healing" ability is really just rewinding timeFalse, as stated by Aizen.Ulquiorra thought it was temporal regression, but that was shot down by Aizen.What Orihime's power does is outright rejection of something. i.e the directly negates the existence of the injury.It was implied that she can even tell metaphysical concepts to fuck right off if she has sufficient will to do so.Determined, Assertive Orihime is far more hax than mere time wizardry.
