#BLEACH x READER TAG HEY GIRLIE HI WHATS UP LONG TIME NO SEE

[unohanadaydreams]

How would my pookie bear Izuru react to an S/O who’s just always making dirty jokes Mars cough not me cough pls I’d love to know 🌝

LMAO NOT YOU?????????

I mean, never you! I'm so sorry if you have a hard time relating to this because this could never be you!

This is pre-TYBW because I think his reaction would be more fun.

Izuru is reserved. Even playing cat's cradle with you is enough to dust his ears in embarrassment. He keeps snagging on the feeling of your finger brushing his. On the curl of string round your knuckle tightening against his own when you move. His heart is racing. This is a boring game, a time sink for most. But not to him. And most certainly not with your shoulder pressed to his.

So when you peek up at him, mouth twisted up and ask him, "what's the blush for?"

He can't articulate beyond what he's already said, when you first suggested playing this way. Head bowed, triangle of bangs shielding his face, Izuru labors for something cool to say.

But he's all thoughts. How pathetic he can't manage to weave them in conversation, off paper. How wasteful that you're with him. But how selfish and thankful he is, too.

"Playing with your left hand and my right," he says as you loop your pinky to match his, "Its...nice."

You hum and the string goes slack as you press into his side, too close, "I can think of something even nicer for you to play with."

"W-what?"

His free hand pushes aside his bangs, as if seeing you with both eyes will unravel your intention. Because, well....you can't mean...

"You know, if you wanna tie up more than just my hand?"

"More than your h-hand? You mean...as in...if we...!"

Laughing, you interlocked your fingers with his as he burns, not opening his mouth. Not wanting to stutter again.

"I was just joking," you said, kissing his cheek. "You're so cute, Izuru-kun."

Izuru kisses your brow by reflex, trying to push away the image of you all tied up. Because would you want that? Would you let him? You were being light-hearted but what if...

You fall into laughter again as he calms himself.

"You're dangerous," he finally manages, admiring the tangle of string still connecting you to him.

Gesturing to your chest, you give a wink. "I am always packing."

He covers his glowing face and groans while you elbow his side in hysterics, still too flustered to look you in the eye.
