@wild-pineapple-butt (Semi-plotted)

His gaze narrowed as he squinted out over the vast desert they'd appeared in. Eyes adjusting to the strange lighting of Hueco Mundo. The sun replaced high above by what appeared to be a moon casting a shimmery silver hue to everything around them. It was breathtaking in an oddly disturbing sort of way as his skin crawled for a moment from the change in the air around them. Spiritual pressure and energy felt different here. As if even it too where starved and hungry.

Sliding his gaze to the side towards the other two that had been sent he sighed. He'd met Inoue once or twice when delivering information to his Captain that had needed to be done in person rather than through the communication systems that had been set up for while Hitsugaya was in the mortal world. A fact that he was thankful for now since he knew what her spiritual pressure would feel like.

"So, do we look for Inoue first or the idiots that came rushing here without waiting for you guys to get back?"

Just because he wasn't a doctor, that didn't mean he couldn't *try* patching that arm up. There was a long sigh, "let me see the arm an' I'll give it a shot... Know yer not my lieutenant but'cha gotta watch what yer doin' an' this woul'n' happen. Be a little more vigilant." He was trying to offer words of wisdom and encouragement, but he could be rubbing the wrong way.

"Happy Birthday Yumichika-san!" Renji waves down the other and jogs up to him cheerfully. He hands over a present, in which he'd attempted to wrap, but had kind of given up halfway.

Inside, a couple of items that Renji had gathered in which he thought Yumi might like. A nice bottle of sake (of course, sake was never amiss in situations like this), a hair mask that Rangiku had so nicely helped him pick out, a small bottle of floral fragrance, and a set of cat hairpins.

The last item, was really meant to be a silly gag gift, but Renji had seen it in one of the stores in the Living World and he thought it might fit Yumichika even if the other didn't usually clip up his hair. He thought it was kinda cute and so why not.

Birthday Peacock 2023!

Yumichika had been in the middle of something when he was approached and presented with a very unique looking box. It was surprising enough for the redhead to have his birth date memorized, but for the guy to also be gifting something was not expected at all. That is why it took the beauty all of his willpower to keep a straight face, hiding the amount of amazement and joy this sudden moment had brought him.

"You... got me something?" were the words soon let out as perfectly manicured hands set down the pile of paperwork and reached out for the peculiarly packaged box instead. It had to contain something a bit on the heavier side at least, but otherwise there was no assumptions what this gift actually contained. With a slight curious head tilt, the peacock took a moment to look for the best way to approach opening this wrapping of sorts and then carefully started peeling pack some oddly placed tape. The chaotic nature of the packaging was a definite representation of who had put it all together.

"You didn't have to get me anything, but I do appreciate the effort so thanks", the birthday boy started, eventually getting the wrapping situation sorted and seeing the contents within. Seeing the sake resulted in a slight knowing smile since no member of the Eleventh would turn down an offer of sharing drinks. It was fitting. The hair mask got reacted to next, a hand picking it up and sparkling eyes reading the label and contents in disbelief. Something of this nature must've been picked up by a person who knew their stuff and it didn't take much of brain work to figure out Renji must've gotten help from someone more knowledgeable.

Then there were the pins.

It wasn't unusual for Yumichika to react big, but he rarely spoke about his affection towards cutesy things. It didn't fit his image at all so the topic rarely got brought up. So now, with wide eyes and barely hidden smile of excitement, the pins got picked up and examined closely in turn. They were ADORABLE.

"This... What's this for?" he muttered out, clearing his throat and regaining composure quickly as he realized just how uncharacteristic the sudden excitement towards this item alone had been. Hopefully the lieutenant wasn't going to berate him for liking something so feminine - that was his biggest fear when it came to the non-masculine things he secretly enjoyed.

Trust. Such a hard concept to truly grasp the meaning of, was it not?

The paperwork laid on that wide wooden desk never left his focus while that sudden accusation from Abarai Renji got thrown into the stale office air. Processing such words in the middle of a work day like so was quite a hassle, but they had delivered within themselves a serious question – a question which most likely yearned for an immediate answer. Resigning from any communication in this predicament would not provide anything but more insecurities and distress between them. So slightly sighing, the owner of this neat and tidy workspace finally decided to cast his gray eyes towards the one who he would be directly addressing.

”If it was not for the titles we carry and the jobs we honor, would it not be hard for you yourself to show trust towards someone of my background?”

Thinking back, this unusual cooperation had lasted for almost a year now which in itself was an oddity. It had been an assumption that the mutt delivered to the Kuchiki manor’s doorstep by the barbaric Eleventh Division would turn back with it’s tail between it’s legs as soon as the Sixth’s duties were proven to be harder than what was imagined. Instead the said mutt had steadily fed itself and grown into a beast, still an untrained and wild one, but powerful enough to prove his worth in battle against honorable men. Some refinement and discipline could fix such issues if he kept steady on the course, that much was easy to predict. With the following statement taking form on his tongue, the proud captain was already turning back to the work still awaiting for his attention.

”Do not underestimate the potential of a determined soldier. Train and earn the trust you so much long for as I do not practice free handouts in such matters.”

@wild-pineapple-butt

Rukia had been sitting up, placing her hand about her abdomen area, checking where even hours ago there had been a gaping hole thanks to one of the advancing arrancar. Even after she had already been aware of Orihime's skill, it still was a miraculous event to experience it firsthand, as if washing the very event from reality. That didn't mean her body didn't carry an exhaustion through its veins however. Even the act of sitting up had felt like some kind of struggle, twisting and putting weight on her muscles like at the end of a heavy exercise routine. On top of it, her head was still trying to process what exactly had occurred, unable to fully piece things together as the attack had quickly taken a turn for the worse.

She had just been able to allow herself to lay for a moment, when she had spotted a particular worried look from Ichigo as he darted out of the room, and it was a sort of look that she couldn't allow herself to lay still while she knew it was around, the image sitting in her mind and annoying her, even if it was no longer in her sight. As she sits up further, moving to get out of bed, sweat appearing on her brow, a hand stops her, pushing her back into bed softly. She doesn't quite have the energy to have a proper resistance, falling back easily enough into the pillow.

Rukia tilts her head towards the owner of the hand, giving him a sort of annoyed glare. "I'm fine Renji. Inoue does great work." She assures. That touch from before seemed to trigger a tiredness in her that she hadn't realized, pulling any adrenaline from her and returning her to stillness. She has a discomfort in putting her own health first when clearly she could be of use, but that hand wasn't the sort to allow her to put herself second, And so with a lack of energy to argue, she slumps back into the bed with acceptance. Her eyes dart at the doorway where Ichigo had left moments ago, clearly still bothered and unable to let it go fully. "Would you... Could you check on him?" She doesn't like to ask usually, but it seems like a middle ground between him pushing her to rest and her wanting to make sure her friends are being looked after. If Rukia knows that is she can pass that burden to someone who will see it through then she can rest more at ease.

"Didn' say ya were dumb. The fuck they call a place where they smoke the bacon, then?"

@hirak0s

"I'm dumb, but not that dumb..." Renji pulls out his phone and types "baconry" into Google. Of course... nothing meaningful pops up.

[despairforme]

Oh? Was it Nnoitra's birthday? Renji must have missed it. Regardless, he bore a gift for the other, in the form of huge ripe strawberry for the fairy. Hopefully, the small creature would enjoy it to his heart's content. Judging by how he had devoured it last time, Renji had a feeling this one would be enjoyed, as well.

NNOITRA’S BIRTHDAY 2022 ! 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈    

      No big deal, right? WHY should anyone remember his birthday? That's what he should be thinking, but instead he was disappointed that NONE of the other fairies had congratulated him. It probably had something to do with the fact that there were hundreds of others who had the same birthday ( they hatched in batches after all ), but STILL! In protest, he had decided not to do ANY work today. He was sitting on a stone ( which, to him, appeared more like a mountain ). The view was gloomy. It would be winter soon - the worst season for any fairy. He watched a leaf fall towards the ground, and for a moment he was tempted to raise it. He remained seated, however, determined to not do anything today. A person approached. He could hear them a mile away, and he was weary. He wasn't supposed to be seen by others, so he'd have to go and hide. TYPICAL. But, when the person came into view from in between the trees, Nnoitra recognized him. It was that tall red haired man who had given him berries before. Instead of hiding, Nnoitra stood up and waved his arms to get his attention. Maybe it worked, maybe the man had already spotted him. Either way, Nnoitra was soon handed a HUGE strawberry. He was barely able to carry it, so he placed it down on the stone, letting out a breath from the weight. He beamed with delight and ran his hands all over the berry, feeling the texture of the skin. Was this a birthday gift!? If it was, it was the best gift ever! He could hardly wait to dig in! He showed the man two tiny thumbs up and grinned brightly, to try to show his appreciation for the gift.

🧸 (for mayuri :p - I'd love to see his reaction)

[Send Muse a Stuffed Animal]

((I’m assuming this isn’t specifically from Renji, hope that’s okay :3))

The last Mayuri expected on his desk was a stuffed toy. He’d assume it was a mistake and was meant for Nemu if he hadn’t gotten her a separate office. He looks over it slowly,looking for a trap or perhaps an early birthday card. However neither one shows up. He huffs and pushes it to the side and starts on his paperwork.

However he can’t resist reaching over and messing with it with his other hand. The fabric of it was quite the source of comfort for him... Nice,soft, and pleasant to the senses. It wasn’t gross or overwhelming feeling...

❝No, looks like you’re slacking.❞ She picked a few of the pieces off of the top of the pile, all budget stuff. Her face scrunched up in distaste.

❝Yeah, I got done a little bit ago. Thought you would have had me beat. Guess I was wrong.❞ Her face grew into a little smirk. ❝I can help, but it’ll cost you.❞

// Strawberry Password [Kisuke & Renji] - Part ? [FIN]

“Yes!” Urahara replied, innocent as ever with his fan. “Oh right, well I require two pumpkins. They are most fresh at around midnight, so I’d like you grab them then! And for someone of your strength, they should be quite light!”

With that said, he rushed off to let Renji handle the rest. “Good luck!”

// I believe (according to my notes) this was supposed to set up the ‘Halloween Hauntings of Karukara Town’ that Urahara would send Ichigo to investiage later lmao, but gdi I got too busy to follow through! Welp, there’s always this year! lmao

cc-bleach-blazing-souls​:

Kisuke seemed to know almost everything with his timing, like he was tracking everyone’s thoughts and movements. Who knows how he even know Renji was curious to find out if Ichigo had any porn on his laptop or phone?  This shady shopkeeper was honestly the devil in disguise, ready to offer a deal with his temptation.

“Oh? Are you sure? It’s quite a fast and simple task, really. I just want you to run to the store to get me some pumpkins! It will be Halloween soon after all!” He replied cheerfully, then lowered his hat some. “But if you do insist, then I suppose that makes you a good friend,”

It was hard to tell if this was a test of Renji’s willpower, or just another opportunity to get Renji to do his dirty work for him again. In either case as he walked off, Kisuke was low-key proud of Renji’s progress since he first arrived to live at his shop.

“Just run to the store and get some pumpkins?” Renji snorts. From his previous experiences, he was willing to bet that either he would be asked to get hundreds of pumpkins or these so called pumpkins would be tons of kilos each. 

Forget about the base offer of getting Ichigo’s passwords for a second - he had to know exactly what the errand was. “Wait! Let me ask ya this then… how many pumpkins exactly am I gettin’ fer ya and… how heavy are these pumpkins…?”

It was always better to be safe than sorry with this man.

@wild-pineapple-butt​ continued from here.

Renji looks down at the shorter woman, tugging at his arms cheerfully. Raising his brow, he blinks a couple of times, wondering if he knew this woman and he was just being his usual forget self.

Clearing his throat, he sheepishly smiles. “Um sure, I can do that. Uhh do I know ya?” he asks, tilting his head to the side curiously.

Ray’s face lit up.  He was the first who was willing to listen.  And he was super tall which was good.  She didn’t even wait.  She was already grabbing his hand to lead him along. 

“Know me?  I don’t believe so.”  She looked up at him.  “Oh no, I said I liked your hair before.  But we didn’t get introduced.  I’m Rachael but you can call me Ray.”

“Y-yoruichi-san!” Renji sweats nervously. “Hahaha... I dunno what ya might be talkin’ about...” The cat cafe... it had to be that!!

Yoruichi just raised an eyebrow and then gave a smile which was only slightly ominous. “Me neither, I say a lot of things.”

[scnkei]

"Happy Birthday, Kuchiki Taichou!" In his quest to find his captain an appropriate birthday gift, he'd stumbled upon instant noodles that promised burning tongues and guts. Instant noodles was hardly befitting of a noble, but perhaps the spicy factor of it might be enough to win Byakuya over. "I heard ya like spicy things. But in case those are too much fer ya, then here." Handing over a box of traditional Japanese wagashi. "Ta help soothe yer stomach after. Happy Birthday, heh."

     This day had brought on many surprises, but Byakuya did NOT expect Renji to have a gift for him. It had nothing to do with him discrediting his Fukutaichou. He did think the other would remember his birthday, and he was expecting a congratulation in the form of a polite ‘ happy birthday ‘ and a bow. Why was he not assuming he was getting a present? Because he doubted Renji would be able to decide what to give him. The other would be TOO NERVOUS about getting a disappointing present that would not meet Byakuya’s approval, and thus the other would end up not getting him anything. Which was perfectly fine. Byakuya had no need for presents. However, as it turned out - HE WAS WRONG.

     He was handed a pack of something he recognized as instant noodles. Someone had told him about them at one point. Apparently this was the sort of thing they ate frequently in the World of the Living. He was about to question Renji’s reasoning for giving him such a gift. Was the other attempting to make him more ‘ in touch ‘ with the humans? Or was it simply some sort of prank. Had he not known that Renji’s respect for him was enormous, he would’ve been thinking that this WAS indeed some form of jest. Before he could pose his question, Renji explained it to him. Ah, so these noodles were spicy. Byakuya commended him on doing such extensive research into his likes. Another box was then handed him a box. This one was more familiar, and he knew it contained traditional wagashi. Byakuya was not too fond of sweets, but perhaps Rukia would enjoy them. Not that he was going to tell Renji that he planned on passing on the sweets. ❝ Thank you, Renji. ❞ It wasn’t every day his Fukutaichou managed to surprise him, so Byakuya was quite pleased ( though it didn’t show ). ❝ I am indeed fond of spicy foods. I will enjoy these. ❞ The noodles, he meant.

Sudden Expression

forgottenyearofthecat​:

Pausing long enough to sigh Kyo just nodded. “There’s a connection to that story and my family name. For as long as anyone can remember a select few members of the family have been cursed by each member of the zodiac as well as the cat.” Looking over he ran a hand through his hair not sure if Renji would even understand let alone believe him. “And I’m the cat. And outcast of the Zodiac and an outcast of my own family.”

Renji’s eyes widen as Kyo finally spills the secrets. Yet, he wasn’t quite understanding it still. “So within the Sohma family - which I know is huge… that some family members are “cursed”. 13 to be exact since there’s 12 zodiac and 1 cat. And these family members .. are animals? I mean ya look entirely human to me.”

Kyo better not be pranking him - otherwise Renji might be offended for taking this so seriously. But he had a feeling that the other was being entirely serious and that baffled Renji even more.

forgottenyearofthecat-a

He nodded to each of Renji’s questions. Well all except the last to which he shook his head. “That’s because we are human. We’ve just been cursed to turn into the animals when stressed, sick, or have contact with the opposite gender. It’s all sorts of complicated…”
