#also Nemuri could feasibly be Gotei 13’s child if Nanao ever wanted to custody battle

[unohanadaydreams]

I just found your Mayuri at a party thing and just wanna say! I feel like Nemuri would be his secret weapon to squeezing party information out of people for the purposes of crashing. What captain can say no to a tiny child who is too sweet for a Kurotsuchi? The only price is she’s kidnapped for the day by Kyoraku or Kenpachi.

The worst part (for like everyone else) (but also the best part?) is that post-TYBW, Mayuri wants to go to parties. He knows how many of the captains and lieutenants cope by getting absolutely shit faced and he's like 'yeah, I can give this a try after getting served the fattest L of my professional and personal life'.

Nemuri tells Kenpachi that she is an excellent back-shoulder driver during one such bender while her father is busy making people feel dimensions with his 'shroom mixed drinks and with her guidance Kenpachi is back to the 11th, then back to the party in no time flat. So OF COURSE he has to 'babysit'. He is tasting a sense of direction never before felt by Kenpachi Zaraki tongues! Nemuri points and she's RIGHT! Forget that bullshit GPS Ikkaku heard about from Akon! This little girl is literally going--to the right!!--places! (I think Zaraki would not go for the shroom mix because he has been burned one too many times by colleague suggestions. Chojiro lives on.)

Also, Shunsui would be even worse because he IS the kind of guy to pull rank over dumb shit. With Nanao at his side, it is simply worse for Mayuri--she was a WA veteran with Nemu, they were as close to friends as a one woman and one Mayuri-motivated 24/7 surveilled test tube woman could be. She would work with Shunsui on this one, also, because she feels sentimental and grateful that he never *checks notes* brutally beat her for being concerned about her own safety.

Honestly, I think Mayuri isn’t grateful enough that Nanao Ise never took him out of commission. Her kido is strong enough, her strategy is sound, and she is shielded by heaps of nepotism. She could have done it!!!!

Also, I think Shunsui would really get a kick out Nemuri because she reminds him of little Nanao. He’d read books for her and tell her about his oldest friend as she furiously wrote down notes because she has to get a good grade at being talked to.
