BLEACH QUEST XVIIII
>Not XIX, XVIIII. That’s how we roll when we go Full KUBO

Previous threads archived: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Bleach%20Quest
Bleach Quest Twitter: https://twitter.com/QuestOp
Thread (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 I

From 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 Blood

You’ve awakened your inherent Quincy blood!

>Sixth Sense

Takes the first five rolls when searching for spiritual energy

Skills:
>{------} - are currently at 0 out of 500 for Rank 2 of (------)
>Swordsmanship - are at 255 out of 600 for Rank 2 of Swordsmanship. You are now an ametuer swordsman!

Last time!

>You go over and open the top one and look in it. There’s many things there, including what looks like a sword hilt, but the most important thing seems to be some sort of diary.

>On it is written in your mother’s handwriting .

>“Property of Kurosaki Masaki”

>Actions?
>>
Can we sense anything coming from the hilt or the diary?
>>
>>25900308
Read the diary. Duh.
>>
>>25900308
Read. Then inevitably reveal to our friend that his dad and our mom were arranged to be married. Oh, and his dad has Quincy powers. Luz will ensue.
>>
>>25900308
Quick question, do we have the Getsuga Tenshō ability yet? Because that would seem to fall under Zanpakuto, but] the XP cost is extortionate if that's the case.
>>
our list of things-we-need-to-get-done from last thread:
>not get killed by Rage McMurderMidget
>read that fuckin' diary. Read the SHIT out of it.
>learn to use our new best friend, Mr.Lightsaw.
>see if we can't teach Uryu Blut, because he needs to not get cut by things that are sharp
>learn kido from Momo, and see how her talk with her sword and HoMo went
>Get Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizuiro working on either developing powers or learning cool shit that acts like powers
>avoid getting killed by the MurderMidget some more.
>talk to Isshin, see how his powers are coming along, and if he can't help us neutralize the MurderMidget problem.
>Acquire bitches, smite more liches
>Talk to our inner bro about our inner cool uncle's shady dealings
>learn how to swordbeam
>possibly get more lessons with The Cat if we can- we gotta go faster.
>repeatedly check in a paranoid manner to see whether or not Mr. BOHAHA is gone- you can never be too sure.
>check Mexico at some point for the presence of Masaki because Grand Fisher's tale might have a shred of truth in it
>wonder all day what ever happened to Rukia
>make our Modzilla breathe fire, damnit!

As for our actions right now: we look at the diary, but if it turns out to require more attention and in-depth contemplation, look at that shiny and sexy sword hilt.
HEL-LO NEW BEST CHAINSWORD.
>>
>>25900308

Open Diary, pause, look at sleeping Momo, look over to Uryuu, bow, "Ishida, thank you for this" and start reading, be prepared to have surprised or -ugh- faces.
>>
>>25900412
We do, but don't know its name yet.
>>
>>25900425
>>>learn kido from Momo, and see how her talk with her sword and HoMo went

I'm thinking we should skip Kido. We already have so many things to sink XP into including the ultimate spiritual hax: Quincy powers.

Stare at the diary for a second, then look at Ishida and thank him. Seriously, this is worth much more to us than just the knowledge inside.

That accomplished, if it's aproaching breakfast time lets get on that (either digging out the snack packs or setting up an electric griddle and rustling up something for ourself and the other two. Then read a little of the book.
>>
>>25900538
Not until a major and vastly important plot point. Or even if we do learn its name, we are not allowed to reveal it until said plot point.
>>
>>25900425
Eh, are we really up for using Zangetsu in its current form as a one-handed weapon?

It'd be kind of unwieldy.

>>25900516
I love you Gin. Really, I do.

In case it wasn't clear from the start, she's in this for the long haul, as long as we make sure to keep her alive.

... we should probably read that diary, yeah.

Any contents we should give to pops?

Also don't forget all of the bleach animation is available for free (with commercials & subs) in Hulu if you like to support the official release.

>>25900549
I figure that trying to hold back against Shiro comes under the heading of Bad Idea TM

My suggestion is to distract him, then hit him with a Hollowfied Blut Arterie'd Getsuga.

I highly doubt we remember her name IC. Especially with all of this other shit.

Also, I wish I was here last night. I would have suggested that Keigo goes combat. Have him learn from Kanoji and Mizuiro learn from Tessai.

What's the worst that could happen?
>>
>>25900627
How could I forget?
Yes, we are of course helping Momo along as much as we can.
Also, we need to spend more time with Hime and Momo- and possibly get them to spend time together on their own. It's the only way to make this happen.
>>
>>25900640
I doubt it's the whole series and for free.

Also holy shit Cosgrove my entire night after work revolves around me being in front of my computer from 10PM-12AM Eastern to try and catch these. I need help.

I don't know, I think it's justifiable to have Rukia stick in our head, seeing as she was there at the start, when our life spiraled completely out of control.
>>
>>25900425
>>Talk to our inner bro about our inner cool uncle's shady dealings

Hey Cosgrove, what was Brighteyes's tone when he was about to drop some spoilers on us last quest?
next time we go back, it's just going to be Old Man and he will be amazingly pissed

It's missing some of Zanpuktou Rebellion but other than that they have everything
>>
>>25900702

Once they've acknowledged each other as romantic rivals, we lay down some boundaries, both for our health and for Momo's recovery, stuff like the hard rule for everyone. Also tell Momo she shouldn't treat us as her new superior, we're her friend. Tell both girls we want no woman to ever again sacrifice themselves for us... We could never forgive that.

I'm sure we remember her face, but I doubt her name.

Majority rallied for support for him. I wanted combat for laughs and Tat for support, again for laughs.

It seemed like he was angry that OMZ was assuming direct control, and trying to warn us.

>Thank Ishida
>look through diary

You pause and look up at Ishida. “Thank you. You don’t know what this means to me.”

He nods his head. “If there’s anything you need help with, be sure to tell me.”

You give him a strong nod before picking up the diary and sitting down. You begin flipping through it. You read of your mother’s personal thoughts on matters. On her Quincy training. On the Ishida family and her arranged marriage. Of the devision between ’Echt and Gemischt’ On her meeting your father…

You read that section thoroughly. While hearing your father’s story was one thing, reading your mother’s words are another. How energetic she was, what she thought of things. You stare at something you makes a note of.

“I confronted Ryuuken when he tried to stop me. While I respect him and like how he thinks about things before acting. However he and I are different. To me, "caring about myself" means to do everything in my power, every day. If today I don't do what I can because of some custom and someone dies because of it, I won't be able to forgive myself tomorrow.

“I live my life by those words and I don’t think I’ll ever regret them.”

You swallow the lump in your throat as the diary entries start drying up. There’s a few mentions of a Soken Ishida, Ishida’s grandfather perhaps?, and how he was in disagreement with a group of Quincies known as the Vandenreich, but there aren’t any more details about them. Instead the last diaries are reflections on leaving the Ishida home and how she spent time with your father. At the end is a picture taped in of her and your father when young with the words 'goodbye' written into it.

You snap the book shut and look around. It seems like Momo is awake, sitting and playing with Kai, and Ishida is back to sewing. You look at the book. Maybe it would be something good to give to your father?

>actions?

Can we use our cell phone without leaving the warehouse?

Because yeah, that'd be a nice thing to do.
>>
>>25900926
>make breakfast for everyone if applicable
>check to see if we get cell service inside Momo's barrier. If so, check with her before calling our family to make sure they're ok.
>>
>>25900971
Yes, the humor cannot be stopped.
>>25901004
Probably not, the kido shields light, and cell phones transmit their signals using light waves.
>>
>>25900971

"So yeah. I'm gonna call my family and make sure they're alright. Assuming my cellphone's gonna work in here."
>>
>>25901027

Well yeah, but it's also ghost magic. For all we know, it'll work better because of it.
>>
>>25900926
Maybe have Ishida look through the entries on her Quincy training, see if there's anything helpful for him?
>>
>>25900971
>...so that's a thing.
I feel like I'm reading Hollow Quest.
>>
>>25900926
Hold the book close to our chest, our arms crossed over it. Let out a small, sad smile.
Thank Ishida, and offer to sit down and talk about this stuff sometime soon. Bond over the mutual past.
Ask Momo how she slept and how her meditation went.
Ask Kai how the night went/how we slept. Thank him for keeping watch. We'll have to take him out sometime soon as a treat/thank you.
>>

>>25900966
>>25900966
Let's let the Vandenreich thing go for now, and focus on other matters.
That, and we've been asking Uryu a lot of questions already.
Like, a ton. He's been pretty cool, but give him some space.
Plus, he's sewing. Don't interupt a guy when he's sewing.

What else is in the box?
>>
>>25901099

Drunk after people egged him to run while drinking?

First thank Ishida again, and ask him to help you go through the rest of the items.

Then proceed with >>25900966 and >>25901086

His twitter (@dockhackaida) says that hollow will probably run tomorrow.

>>25901095

He said Hollow probably tomorrow, but not ready to go back to .Hack.

Always neat to see another person who follows AIDA, since it seems so much less popular than Hollow Redux.
>>

...@dothackaida...we're not hacking into port security
>>
>>25901086
Facepalm, I'm sure that's going to go over well with the shinigami in the room...well, maybe we can see if she has any ideas of how to modify it to purify hollows instead of annihilating them. If Ishida gets prissy, tell him about Orihime's brother. And tell him that for now that information is to be held in confidence.
>>
>>25901115
I didn't say that was a bad thing
>>
>>25901115
Yeah good point.

Let's just let the dude sew and shit.

Maybe do >>25901058
?
>>
>>25901152
She already knows we have Quincy blood.

As long as we don't swing it around, it should be fine.
>>
>>25901152
A good question, can we develope a Quincy technique that purifies, remember that Mayuri recently said that obliterating souls and hollows fronts cycle is a power if the Quincy, alone.
>>
>>25901178
Besides, we have no clue what it is IC. We may scare everyone, but Ichigo doesn't know that.
>>
>>25901153
Because it isn't.

>>25901086
>>25901152
I'm liking this.
Also advocating talking to Momo about how HER night went, because our sword would just not le tup. We got a real workout, and the climax was especially satisfying.
But then it wasn't.

>all madyomo
though if this makes Momo upset as captha is insinuating, I'm going to laugh.

And instantly we are a master of ghost lightsaber chainsaw sword. And it is beautiful.

I was talking about swinging it around, she might jump to the conclusion that we're willing to use it on Shiro.

With any luck he'll be able to use the Blunt

Damn... Ryūken Ishida really has excellent reasons to hate his quincy powers you know?

I mean, first it forces him into an arranged marriage, then it said powers lead to his fiance nearly dieing and getting saved by a shigami while he watches powerlessly. Then he marries a childhood friend of his, only to have her fall into a coma on the same day his ex loses her powers and dies, so he KNOWS said powers are responsible. Is it any surprise he tries to dissuade his soon from using his quincy abilities?
>>
>>25901152
Eh no need to use it on hollows, when Zangetsu has served us fine.

I'd say use it as a surprise/parrying weapon.

We just read the dairy we pretty well know.

I wonder if he really did come up with that technique on his own? I can think of two others that might have been interested in a Quincy power restoration technique.

>ask ishida about father and Vandenreich

You pull out your phone and look at it, but it appears you have no bars. Momo looks over at you. “Sorry, Ichigo ,but part of the barrier stops phones from working.” You give her a nod before looking over at Ishida.

When he looks like he’s finished with what he’s currently working on, you approach him. “Hey, Ishida. Is your father a Quincy and do you know anything about a group known as the Vandenreich?”

He shakes his head. “My father doesn’t want anything to do with the Quincy. At least not anymore. He says he’s rather spend his time trying to save the living than waste it on the dead. As for that group… no I’m sure I’ve never heard of it before, why?”

“…My mother mentioned it was a group of Quincy your grandfather disagreed with.”

Ishida frowns. “If there were still Quincy other than my family and yours, it wouldn’t be surprising. He tried to let go of the past. Maybe I should try harder to follow in his footsteps…”

He trails off awkwardly before looking at you. “Was there anything else?”

You nod. “Apparently your father and my mother were arranged to get married. But there was this thing about blood purity and her hollow that stopped it.”

Ishida raises an eyebrow. “blood purity, that’s the first I’ve ever heard…”

You shake your ehad. “Don’t worry about it. Can you help me go through this stuff? I might need help finding any Quincy stuff as I don’t recognize them.”

He gives you a nod and as you walk back, you stop by and talk to Momo. “How was your training?”

She gives you a frown. “Tobiume is unhappy with me, it seems. But I think we’re working things out. Can I watch?”

She gestures towards the box and you shrug. “Sure?”

You walk over to the boxes as Ishida makes his way over. The first thing you do is pick up the sword hilt in the open box. “What’s this do?”

Focusing on it, your feel it draw in your spirit energy as a GIANT chainsaw of energy appears before you drop it in shock, the energy dissipating.

Ishida gives you a look. “Maybe you shouldn’t touch anything that doesn‘t look like personal effects, Kurosaki?”

You give a sheepish look as Uryu picks up the hilt and examines it before setting it to the side on a small table, carefully, before looking at you.

“Are you sure you want to do this now, Kurosaki?”

>yes
>If ‘no’ write in what to do
>>
>>25901532
Ichigo had to go through a lot of character development to unlock dual-wielding.

While we have more information, we don't have near as much maturity.

Its better then a pipe bomb.

Why did he even have those in the first place.

>>25901589
Kai said he won't ever kill (or hurt, can't remember which) a living thing. He probably wouldn't take it or use it, and it's not as if we can just clip it on a lanyard and walk around all day with it just in case.

>>25901546

Also, this is still Ichigo.

So far the only thing keeping him from non stop training is deeply ingrained fear of failing school.

He'd want us using Quincy stuff, I think. It's the Hollow/Shinigami stuff that bothers him.

"Yes, No time like the present, besides, if I root through it alone... We might lose the base to a smoking crater.”

Ishida smirks at that as Momo giggles. “Alright, but I’m pulling out anything that could be a Quincy item if I see it. Anything could be unintentionally dangerous in your hands right now.”

You nod as you start sorting. There and there, you see Ishida grabbing more sword hilts or little tiny silvered containers and a bangle or two. Meanwhile, Momo helped you sort everything else. For the most part, it seemed like it was mostly clothes, but there were a few pictures here and there, as well as small trinkets and moments that meant something to your mother.

You stored those separately away, planning to give them to your father. Finally, when you’re finished you look at the several boxes of clothes, a box with some mementos and a table covered with various Quincy objects.

Ishida looks at you. “We’re done with that, Kurosaki. What do you want to do now?”

Ask what these things are first.

Then talk with Momo about training, ask if she noticed anything about the dynamic between Tobiume and her Inner Hollow.

Hitsugaya's a good person, though it's possible that even though he isn't "bad", or won't flat out hate Ichigo, the two of them just won't have compatible personalities at all.

Stomach growls
"Better yet, can you give me the explanation while we eat something. Afterwards I should probably go back to training.

Speed training, to keep ourselves alive until Shiro gets over his time limit.

Also, about the Quincy Sword, we might want to give, or at least lend it to Ishida, because, let's be honest, we already have two swords. It's either keeping it as a backup weapon, giving it to Ishida, or using it like Zoro. (or tying it to our other "sword", but that sounds even more inconvenient :P)

>Explain to me what these things are, please?
>get something to eat, maybe?

You look at the table and point at it. “Hey, Ishida, can you explain to me what these things are?”

He gives you a nod and carefully moves the table so he can give you a better showing. You stare at him until you hear a loud grumbling noise. Looknig down, you sheepishly scratch the back of your head. “But first, is there something to eat?”

Momo nods her head and drags over a small cooler. Ishida gestures towards it. “We have electricity in here, so I can get a small fridge, maybe set up a kitchen. However, that was all I grabbed last night.”

You nod and open the cooler, grabbing some bagged food and closing the cooler. Youv sit down and gesture for Ishida to continue. “You have twenty ginto, here, Kurosaki.”

He picks up one of the small cylinders and shows it to you. On the side is a five pointed star. “They condense Reiryoku into a liquid form which can be used to cast some of the Qunicy spells. I’ve not much experience with them yet, so I don’t know too much. I’ll have to look into it more.”

He sets it down before picking up a bangle, one of three. “These bangles are the foci we Quincy use to create our bows.”

Setting it down he picks up the sword hilt before staring at it, examining it. “I’m not sure what this is. It looks like a sword.”

As he activates it, creating a sword momentarily. “But I don’t think that’s all it does. You have ten of these, Kurosaki.”

He sets them to the side and gets up. “Now I’m going to go back to sewing for now unless you need me for anything?”

You shake your head. “No, I don't want to take up any more of your time, thanks."

He gives you a nod. “I’m going to go for a food run later if there’s anything you want me to do, tell me before I leave, alright?”

You give a nod as you turn to Momo. “You said your Zanpakutou- Tobiume? You said it was mad at you. Anything I can do to help, or do you need anyone to listen?"

She shakes her head. “No, its personal and I think it’ll work out fine. What do you want to do, Ichigo? We could try to train if you want or we could sit and talk?”

She pauses. “…But not Kido. You’d have to learn to control your teriyaki first and doing that might disrupt the barrier.”

Momo is trying to appear nonchalant, but you can tell she’s still affected by the fact her old friend is here after her.

Let's go with sparring.
We need to get more of a feel for what fighting a shinigami is like, since we're fighting someone between Momo and Urahara, the only other two we've fought before.
>>
>>25902633
>Sparring
If she starts doing something like holding herself back because she can't accept that she is much better at shinigaming then her new idol, it's a good idea to learn that now and get it out of the way.
>>
>>25902667
We'll talk with our swords.

Since Ichigo is good the whole 'reading intentions' thing.
>>
>>25902633

Train by sparring, but also have Ishida watch. We can show him the basics of blut and perhaps he can tell us how to use one of the bangles.

I'd also be interested in seeing if Kai can activate the bangle while he has control over our body.
>>
>>25902706
luckily for us, Gin swapped one of Aizens sauces with the Colonel's secret recipe, messing with the stability of the kebabs
>>
>>25902633
Personally I think we pretty much talked this out before, unless she is now convinced that Aizen is using her apparent disappearance as a cover to go after our dad/family. Doubtful.

So let's spar, we can talk between bouts.
>>
>>25902633

Talk. We can spar in the afternoon.

How is she coping with becoming part Hollow?

Apologize for our reaction to her panic earlier...we have coping issues about people sacrificing themselves for us.

And take some time to talk about our feelings...because we have a lot of feelings right now and a lot of feelings directed at us.
>>
>>25902747
He's dedicated to not killing, so something as deadly as a quincy bow wouldn't fly with him
>>
>>25902633
Sparring time. Nothing accelerates the power growth of shounen protagonists like live combat and sparring with Momo is the closest thing were gonna get to that since we can't bother Urahara anymore.
>>
>>25902685
No, but we can do that after a training session with Momo, who previously wiped the floor with us.

Remember not to pierce the barrier Ichigo!
>>
>>25902775
We can communicate our feelings through the clashing of blades.

Because Ichigo is a shounen protagonist.
>>
>>25902795
It seems like jinzen is the only way to level up our zanpaktou stat.

Jinzen and Urahara cheating.
>>
>>25902775
I'll also throw my support behind this rather than sparring.
We can spar later, anyway.

Also, we wanna learn more about Shiro- what could we use to potentially calm him down? Is there anything that will set him off that we can avoid?
>>
>>25902811
Wait, we can roll to communicate our feeling to an opponent or detect theirs through the clash of our swords? We are going to be totally unintelligible, calling it now.
>>
>>25902811

So his emotional confusion, his want for Momo, his want for Orihime, his hesitance to let people in, the acknowledged bond he has with Momo, and guilt...ten shades of guilt still lingering on his soul and in his blade...

Oh shit, we have Rukia's guilt for chaging Ichigo's life in canon, was have that now for making Momo a stable Vizard
>>
>fucking auto correct, that should be reiryoku
>sparring

You let Kai take over your body as you face her in shinigami form. “Let’s spar, Momo.”

She nods, using a glove to push herself outside of her gigai. “Very well Ichigo. Though, you should be careful considering the bystanders.”

You give a nod and ready yourself.

You try to focus on your speed, but every time you grip Zangetsu, your mind flashes back to the encounter with your hollow. What did he mean? You grit your teeth as Momo effortlessly counters your every move as doubt consumes your every action.

After a few minutes, she knocks you down and pins you. “Ichigo. What’s the matter with you? Why can’t you focus on this fight?”

She stares you at you, inches away from your face. Her face looks stern, but her eyes are filled with concern. “Why are you and your Zanpakuto so out of sync?”

But... when my Shinigami abilities awakened for the first time, and again when I learned my sword's name, I met someone different. Someone who said he was Zangetsu.

My initial assumption was that I just had two zanpaktou spirits because why not, right? But my Hollow seemed to indicate something different, and I'm pretty sure he's just not playing favorites."

>tell her about your encounter

You turn your head to the side. “When I talked with the hollow in me, he called himself my Zanpakuto. But when I asked him if he was also Zangetsu, he grew quiet before asking me which Zangetsu I liked better. Him, or the old man.”

You shrug. “Urahara told me some Zanpakuto has two spirits, so I asked him why couldn’t it be the case for me? He gave me a serious look and tried to tell me something. He told me I didn’t understand something but he was cut off before he could tell me what.”

You stare at her. “Has Tobiume ever kept something from you? I would have thought that we wouldn't be able to keep secrets, being bonded like we are."

Momo bites her lip and offers you a hand up. She sits down next to you. “Ichigo, your Zanpakuto has bothered me. From what I can tell ,you’ve never had an asauchi, yet you’ve manifested a blade on your own…

“That isn’t normal Ichigo. I’ve /never/ heard of a Zanpakuto that did that.”

What IS the canon explanation for Momo's question, anyway?
Is it that it's essentially a fake, made from.Reiatsu by copying what Ichigo experienced upon having Rukia's power transferred to him?
>>25903292
Yea, that.
They also seem to be the same spirit talking a bit differently.
>>
>>25903439
oh, then my statement is totally correct. Just read it in the tone of a paranoid. Really man, like, what IS an asuachi? I know it's like, the cheapo sword you give scrubs and all, but what IS it? Reiyroku? Souls? Magic?
>>
>>25903511
Nah, it's White. The Hollow that bit Misaki doubled as our Asauchi do to its weird composition.
>>
>>25903511
It was quincy magic wasn't it?
>>
>>25903388
After saying this we should say something to indicate that we're not blowing her off.

Like ask her to tell us why that's so important, and how it could explain why there seem to be two Zangetsus, and it looks like the Hollow one may be less sinister.
>>
>>25903540
I mean it's very important that we don't shut her down when she's trying to help us, since she's still probably sensitive.
>>
>>25903540
Maybe ask her what Asauchi are? Since all we know is that they're basic swords that shinigami-in-training receive.
>>
>>25903593
sounds good, will second

>>25903540
>>25903556
Fair enough

>reaction?

You look at her.

"But you /have/ heard of a shinigami and a quincy having children, and a weird viral hollow being thrown into the mix?

“To be honest, I'm surprised that my abilities aren't more divergent than a normal shinigami."

You hake your head. “Honestly, I gained my powers after almost turning into a hollow. It was a real near thing, too.

"But as for an asauchi, I... kind of had one of those? The first Zangetsu I meant tossed me one inside my head, and said I had to earn the right to wield the real one.

...Which was being held by my Hollow."

She gives you a shake of her head. “Ichigo, you don’t lose your Asauchi when you gain contact with your Zanpakuto spirit and reach shikai. It becomes your Zanpakuto. “

You nod your head. “But I didn’t have one of those. I get that. But why is that so important? And why are both of them Zangetsu?”

She looks at you seriously. “Ichigo, my hollow considers itself a separate entity. So why does yours consider itself Zangetsu?”

>>
>>25903705

"Honestly, I have no idea."

"Best guess I've got is the timing. For me, the Hollow stuff happened at the exact same time the Shinigami stuff did. It could be both parts were 'born' at the same time and it blurred the lines as a result."

"I mean, for you it could be because you were already a Shinigami when the Hollowfication happened."
>>
>>25903748
oh yeah
our hollow was very sad about being alone and nameless
nobody makes our other uses sad
>>
>>25903722
Fuck you. You and Mr. Teriyaki-Powers have launched my sides into deep space. I think I tore something.

>>
>>25903705
>"I don't know? Maybe the call was TOO close and the two just kind of melded together. Hes been a great guy recently. I mean he was aggressive before, but I sensed a sort of regret and loneliness in him the last time we fought... I'm basically flying by the seat of my pants here and have no idea how even a quarter of this stuff is supposed to function so it's all super weird... normal? wormel? to me."

Right, someone please archive it NOW or bad things will happen.

>>
>>25903705
"If I had to guess? I got my Shinigami and Hollow powers at the same time, even if I didn't master the Hollow bits until later, so I'd guess the two just kinda merged."

"That or it has something to do with my mother almost hollowifying, and my dad being a Shinigami. Could I have been born with this and it just didn't awaken until I had my near-death (actual death?) experience?"
>>
>>25903705
because they happened at the same time? sorry I can't give you a straight answer, I don't have any more information than you. But you've been listening to me vent about my issues for a while, so your turn to talk. You said you and Tobiume had to talk through an issue?
>>
>>25903705
Open mouth. Close mouth. Look serious for a second. "So, normally speaking, what would happen if someone got a hold of an incredibly powerful Zanpakuto spirit without involving an asauchi?"

"Are you saying that Zangetsu isn't a zanpakuto at all?"
>>
>>25903748
Ah, but he never did. We couldn't hear him introduce himself. We've been calling the wrong guy Zangetsu the entire time.

"That or it has something to do with my mother almost hollowifying, and my dad being a Shinigami. Could I have been born with this and it just didn't awaken until I had my near-death (actual death?) experience?"

Momo nods her head. “Yes, but that would mean your hollow powers and shinigami powers are one in the same. One entity. So why do you have another spirit within you?”

You frown as you look at her, considering her words as she continues. “And if that was the case, where are your Quincy powers represented internally? Are they a building or another entity as well?”

You pause as you see the Old Man Zangetus out of the corner of your eye staring at you for a moment with an unreadable look, before vanishing.

You nod. “Didn’t you see him. He was standing right there… the Old Man Zangetsu…”

You let a frown cross your face. “If he really is Zangetsu…”

Momo grasps your hands. “Ichigo, I don’t know what you are. And I don’t care. What I care about is you.”

Her finger rubs over you knuckles. “I don’t want to see you like this, shaken by doubt and fear. So I’ll stay here by your side if you want to find out and I’ll stay here by your side if you don’t.”

She tries to give you a smile. “You told me to believe in you until I was ready to believe in myself. I don’t think I am, not yet. But if you’d need someone to believe in you, to support you, I’ll do my best to be that person.

Better to get it out of the way than worry about it biting us in the ass when it counts.

Old Man should know better than to try to dissuade us (if thats what he was even doing) by making creepy cameos in the real world, because it will just turn our stubborn throttle up to 11.

Don't be overly confrontational though. We don't know exactly whats up, all we know is that something isn't as it seems.

"Momo, I wasn't going to say anything but...."

"I'm not sure I like this. Not you, but how you're acting. I mean, I saw how shaken you were when I told you what had been happening. About the truth behind Aizen."

"I don't want that to happen again. It's one thing to feel close to somebody, but it's another to depend on them entirely. I'd hate to just be the next person you lean on, especially since that would make me the next one to destroy you if something happens to me."

"Of course not, I've got to keep moving forward... which is exactly what the old man said.

...And at the end of the day, despite lying and hiding things, I don't think his intentions are to lead me astray.

Sort of like my dad I guess.

I don't know why he pretended to be my zanpaktou, and didn't want me to know that he was my quincy powers, but he still helped me before I was ready to challenge my Hollow, no, Zangetsu, to prove I was a worthy host.

I can't afford to doubt myself right now, so I guess I'll trust him."

>>25904346
Yes, this. I like this. We don't have to learn EVERYTHING, but just clear up that we're all on the same side. We want to be able to protect people close to us, and that means having our shit together. We don't need to know everything to do that. Not just yet.

>>25904293

Trust in the old man.

"Just until I can figure out a next move...or one of the old men make theirs. All I can do is try to become strong enough to protect all of those near me...everyone I want to try to carry...you've shown me how outclassed I am by Soul Society...hell, my big crowning moment leading up to this one shotting that giant thin hollow."

Inhale, reafirm self.

"The worst thing that can happen is if I had to fight a Captain right now. If Toshiro Histugaya kicked open the door, we might be able to talk him down...but against the rest of Soul Society...I need to be strong and move foreward. If I retreat I will age, if I hesitate, I will die. For now...for now I am going to trust in Zangetsu...trust in both Zangetsu...trust in myself,"

Honestly, I'm pretty pleased with what she just said.

She isn't ready to stand on her own just yet, but she at least acknowledged that it was something she should be working towards, and we didn't even have to force her to say it. The first step to fixing anything is recognizing there is a problem in the first place, which she has done.

>even though he didn't really have much intention of winning, we still wouldn't have stood a chance against him at first.
>so Zangetsu effectively acts as training wheels, to get us to the point of us being ready to challenge Zangetsu properly

>also he didn't admit to being Quincy powers because of shinigami/quincy rivalry
>maybe something about how he knew what our policy of how hollows should be treated as well

This is good writing on part of Cosgrove.

This is a good response. She is still dependent, but acknowledges that attempting to monopolize your time and energy is not okay.

>>25904293
Technically confront doesn't mean be hostile.

And part of the truth isn't the whole truth.

I mean, we can already connect the dots that OMZ is our Quincy powers, but that doesn't mean that we know he's also Yhwach sort-of.

Nah, she's nowhere near Gasai Yuno levels.

>confront

You nod your head before slipping into a meditative pose and attempt Jinzen.

When you arrive in the inner world, clouds are gathered overhead as rain begins to fall. The old man looks at you from across the building. He has a pained look on his face as he stares at you.

“Ichigo. We meet again.”

You give him a nod and open your mouth to ask him, but he holds up a hand, his face with a pained grimace.

“Perhaps it was my fault for letting the hollow’s leash slip too much when training you, but I did not want us to ever have this confrontation.”

He closes his eyes. “And I still don’t.

“So, please, Ichigo, don’t ask me the question you so desperately wish to know the answer to. Because once it has been asked, things can never return to the way there were.”

He opens his eyes and stares down at you, waiting for your answer.

>Response?
>>
>>25904293
Even though the smart move is to just trust OMZ, I'm not sure if that's the in-character choice.

Considering how spooky he's been.

Like in that context, trusting him kind of seems like we're afraid of him.

Which we are, with very good reason, but still.

"..... I'm just going to ask you straight up. Can I trust you? Do you have my back?"

"If there's some dark secret you don't want to reveal yet I'm fine for putting it off, even if we can't do it forever."

"I just need to know that you're on my side. If you can look me in the eye and tell me that, I'll trust you. I have no reason not to."

"I just need to know if the two of you have my back. I can't have this- not when someone stronger than anything I've had to fight is gunning for me. I don't need answers right now, Old Man: I need your support."

Her blood, and the Quincy abilities that flow through them.

I get that the situation surrounding the Quincies is more complicated than I can imagine, and that there are some things that you clearly don't think I'm ready to learn.

But... I don't really care about that right now. Right now, I'm not going to reject what's flowing through my veins just because it's different or complicated. The same way I'm not going to reject myself."

You give him a nod. “Fine. I just need to know if the two of you have my back. I can't have this- not when someone stronger than anything I've had to fight is gunning for me. I don't need answers right now, Old Man: I need your support. I also want my hollow to keep some leeway here."

The Old Man’s face calms as he closes his eyes. “Ichigo, I cannot say that the day will never come that you and I will face each other.”

He opens his eyes and stares at you resolutely. “However, when that day may come, I will not lie to you, nor will I stab you in the back.

“I will forewarn you and challenge you face to face like a man.”

His expression softens. “That is the best answer I can give you right now, Ichigo. Is that acceptable?”

Old Man Zangetsu gives you a nod of acknowledgement.

“Thank you Ichigo. In return for your trust, I will trust you. So long as he doesn’t press this issue again, I will allow your hollow to come out.”

You give her a smile. “I’ve got things worked out. For now, anyway.”

You stand up and extend her a hand. “You want to go again? I think I can do better this time.”

I can see a narrative forming.

First three rounds Hinamori is really unsure of her hollow powers, which causes us to be concerned for her, thus causing an even worse performance on our part.

Round four is us fighting pretty much even, with her having a slight edge.

Rounds five through nine are a fairly basic back and forth struggle, with both of us pushing each other farther than we previously thought possible.

Round ten we kind of lose steam, but get our shit together for round 11 to win.
>>
>Overall loss, but 3 nat 20 victories with the final one as your win!

You grip Zangetsu tightly as you look down at Momo, her mask vanishing, as she smiles up at you. “You’re definitely improving, Ichigo.”

You extend to her a hand and she grasps it. A few minutes later, you’re both sore and in your bodies, but not really wounded. Ishida walks over to you two, looking troubled.

“Looks like I’m going to be outclassed before long.”

You toss him one of the sword hilts. “Figure that thing out, see if it can’t help you.” He gives you a frown, “Are you sure?”

You nod. “Just don’t go killing hollows with it.”

He gives you a tight nod.

“I’m going on a food run. Do you need anything?”

>>
>>25905718
Most likely Shunpo (aka, Cat Walk, aka GOTTA GO FAST) since we got points in it when we did speed training with Yoruichi way back when.

Bankai is most likely unlocked by getting our next rank of Zanpakuto, which we're like 9000 away from. That shit is hard to get unless you train for years, or cheat.
>>
>>25905824
Actually...we can probably earn up to 300 points a day, if not more.

35 days minimum, but almost guaranteed with 3 months of steady training
>>
>>25905853
Well yeah, but I think thats more a symptom of Ichigo's crazy natural potential.

Problem is, I doubt we're going to have that much uninterrupted time to train any time soon.

Hell, we though we had up to a month before a Captain showed up, and then the goddamn Snowcone pops up in two fucking days.
>>
>>25905853
And that's without any bonuses or modifiers we may eventually get, too.
You never know.

But I like the point amounts we got- they reflect what we did;
>not a lot of swordsmanship
>we didn't do too well with our mask
>practiced a fuckload of GOTTA GO FAST
>resolved a conflict with our sword.
It works.

>not a lot of swordsmanship

Not a bad idea, really.
Also, our constant failing against her probably means in narrative terms that we're just "an adept Hohō practicioner but haven't really learned how to use true Shunpo yet.
>>
>>25907792
It's either Shunpo, Hirenkyaku, Sonido, or BringerLight. I'm more inclined to go with Sonido as it's (supposedly) the fastest, makes the most awesome sound and it's more instinctual than either of the other two.

I suppose Hirenkyaku *would* be the fastest if you used it like ishida's surfboard thing. Basically hollow abilities are all instinctual, shinigami abilities are part instinct and mostly training, and then quincy abilities are 'you need to be a quincy' but beyond that all training.

So, something occurs to me.

There is no functional reason why we couldn't combine Hierro and Blut, thereby making ourselves a goddamn walking tank. Of course, we don't have Hierro unlocked yet, but presumably its higher up on the Hollow power tree.

Probably.

You should caveat that with "that we're aware of".
Just sayin'.

Remember the idea threads earlier about stacking Shunpo, Sonido, Bringer Light, and Quincy technique I forget the spelling of? We stack, mix, match, and then synthesize. I look forward to the reishi absorption feedback loop/aura recycling.

Isn't that essentially what Ichigo did during his fight with Aizen?
Control all his Reishi to the point where he simply wasn't THERE any-more for people trying to sense him?

>>25908366
Pretty much.

Also, should we learn Kido or Quincy magics, I'd say we focus on containment and small-scale blasts. The first because things running away is pretty annoying, the second to augment our sword skills.

They wouldn't stack - they're all different forms of movement. Sonido is probably the fastest (untrained) as its essentially being born to run *really* fast, Shunpo is a bit better when trained (as it is basically the equivalent of being trained to run really fast), Hirenkyaku is probably the fastest depending on situation and training (as it's basically taking illegal steroids that make you run super fast)

Wait, what if some of those silver tubes still have some of Masaki's energy invested? We might be able to use that later, for tracking purposes.

It's funny, no matter how long a thread gets, the number of updates by the QM still stays around thirty.
Not only in this thread, but most others which I follow as well. /meta

hey if it's going to be that kind of party we need more soi-fon, rukia, momo, etc in different outfits. sweamwear and school uniforms a given.
>>
>>25907109
see
>>25900853
for "real world" application. And yes. Besides standardizing appearances are what uniforms are all about, and big baggy robes don't exactly help to a women's (or mans) natural... assets.
