Kisuke resists the urge to press his cheek against Rerugen’s head, knowing that he has no right to such a blatant show of affection when the man can barely stand his presence; it’s a testament of exactly how exhausted Rerugen is that Kisuke’s reiatsu trick actually worked on him instead of the man just shrugging …

“Well, at least Ishida ate dinner last night,” Cleo announced as she entered the dining room, holding last night’s empty tray in her hands. Euden looked up from the papers spread out around him, his gaze hopeful. “Did you see him?” Cleo shook her head and set the empty tray down on the table. “I …

“It’s a shame we never found you sooner. An Echt of your strength… you’d have been a credit to the Wandenreich,” Yhwach declares as he stalks closer, gaze fixed on Erich. “I wonder what sort of Schrift you would have manifested.” Erich grits his teeth and ignores Yhwach’s words, straining against the foreign presence threaded …

Ren watches with amusement as Silver staggers back to the table and flops onto her side with a heavy sigh, clearly exhausted by all the play that Snowball had insisted on; Shadow and Silver lasted longer than Ren expected — more proof that the two aren’t normal wolves — but it’s obvious that neither of …

Kisuke blinks down at the unknown man at his feet, then slowly lifts his gaze to the empty air in the middle of his lab: the white rip the man fell out of is gone, with only a handful of fading green sparks left to show that anything was there at all. He didn’t sense …

(Helpful, but… still creepy, …

Mami lets herself relax as the two strange wolves finally begin to settle, both of them clearly charmed by Mrs. Plum’s kindness and cherry cakes, just like she’d hoped. For all she trusts Amaterasu with her life and the lives of all the villagers, it’s clear that the two black-and-cream wolves are… uneasy. On edge. …

Kisuke is very, very carefully not panicking. Not at all. Not in the slightest. Not even as Ukitake leads them across a very different — very sparse looking — Seireitei and towards a vaguely familiar area that is completely unfamiliar in regard to the landscaping. (Okay, he’s maybe panicking a bit.) (Just a teeny tiny …

Uryuu slowly roused himself from jinzen, taking care to stretch his legs out and rub some feeling back into them before he tried to do anything else.

Shiro looks over to the barn entrance as someone emerges at long last, then carefully squashes his disappointment when he sees that it’s just Pegasi Master Mori; she’s a busy woman, he knows she is, knows that’s why she would be the first to leave, but he still can’t help but wish that it was …

It’s a couple of months before Steve manages to drag him to another Superhero Shindig— (Yes, they have an official name.) (No, he doesn’t care) —and if he maybe-possibly-perhaps spends an extra moment to remember exactly what he wore last time, well… no one has to know. Steve doesn’t give him a second look other …

They break camp shortly after true dawn. It’s later than Erich wanted, but they’re not that far behind schedule. (Not that they really have a schedule anymore.)
