"Man..I miss Grimmjow." She pauses a moment, her head going dizzy as she felt an ache from the back of her neck. "Ngh...ow..What the fuck..?" ✴️ 𝘼𝙘𝙘𝙚𝙥𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚 𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙡𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙥𝙖𝙨𝙩, 𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩.

Kūkaku was outside smoking when she got the message. "Huh.. I'm surprised he texted me.." 📱He's alive if that's what you're asking. In a bit of rough shape, but after a few days, he'll be fine.

@shibafireworks.bsky.social Grabbing his phone he pulls up his message history, typing out a new message. 📲 Kukaku Hey, is Grimmjow alright after that mess with the Elders? He seemed pretty hurt.

"Ya know, if you come by my bedroom at night and you're bothered by the fact I'm shirtless; that's a you problem. I can wear as much or as little clothing as I want in my room. Enjoy the view of the expensive red lace, by the way. I'm not even bothered by random guests"

::Within the Meeting Chambers of the Kuchiki Estate:: 07:00 Six masked men in black oni and tengu kabuki masks took a knee before elders for both the Shiba and Kuchiki Clan. There was an unspoken tension in the air as the masked men waited their orders. +

She was speechless for a few moments, looking between him and the keys. He was serious about this..wasn't he? Kūkaku almost started to cry again. She practically jumps into his arms, not thinking about how the sheet fell off of her. "I would love that so much! I..hate living by myself."

He laid down on the bed and pulled Kūkaku by his side. Holding her prosthetic hand. "Ran into a asshole earlier today. Got me thinking. Instead of getting a shared room. How about we...move in with each other?" He pulls a box out that had a key inside. "Go the next step?"

Leaning into his kiss, she raised her real hand and brushed his tear away from his cheek. Hearing his words, she knew that he spoke the truth. It was as if his claim to desire to be with her defined her purpose in being there with him. Still, a part of her felt..empty, almost hollow..ironically.

He leans closer to her. "There is no one I would rather be with more than you." He goes to kiss her. He meant his words. He believed his words. He knows they were true. But as he kissed her, a tear fell from his eye. He didn't know it or felt it, but he couldn't control that single tear.

She recalled, briefly, that his wife wasn't around much then. Would it even be proper for her to suggest it? Well...she could try. "I mean..if you don't mind sharing a room with me, I'd be fine with it." Her prosthetic hand intertwines with his, a small smile creeping over her lips.

He was about to move his hands down to his pocket. However, something about this whole situation felt off. He had no idea why. "Yeah, I would love to get a shared room. I mean, the things we've done in there. Whole thing would need to be scrubbed clean." His hand rests on hers.

She was about to open her mouth to say something about staying with Kisuke but stopped herself. A sickening knot formed in the pit of her stomach at the idea. "You know what..? I would love that. I don't really want to head home, and um..do you mind if I get my own room at the resort? +

He sees her crying. He goes to wipe her tears away. He looked at her eyes. For a split second, he thought he saw her iris change colors. He blinked and then put it in the back of his mind. "Hey, you want to just stay in tonight? It's not like we have anything planned."

"The day before my birthday." Though she had support, she choked through a soft sob. "I probably should have just let Kisuke keep his dare. Would have made a party..interesting hahh!" Fuck..why was she still crying? Annoyed, she brushed her hand away from her face. This crying shit is annoying.

Bartender Grimmjow (Parody)@ptgrimmjow.bsky.social · 2mo ago

"Same. I do believe in luck, though." His hug was gentle. Regardless if it was new or familiar, it was supportive. "It was a lucky day you came in the resort. Such a great day."

She looks down to her shaking hand. A hand that once held a ring. 💭I guess this means I'm not meant to be with Urahara this time. Hope whomever it is...is happy. Fuck..why do I feel needy? I wonder if he would mind if I just..gave him a hug.. Kūkaku just leaned towards him, head on his shoulder.+

He goes to set next to her. "Hey, it's okay. It's just a bad dream." He goes to hug her. "The future isn't written. No one has an Almighty Eye (wink wink) that knows everything." He kisses the side of her cheek. "You're here and am here. That is all we need right now."

"Before, I always thought that as long as you pay your dues, a second chance should be allowed. Now? I believe that..maybe..some things aren't really worth losing..for another chance. I..." She couldn't help it. The memories of her former last moments flooded her mind. The cries in the background.+

Bartender Grimmjow (Parody)@ptgrimmjow.bsky.social · 2mo ago

"Second chances?" He looks up for a moment. "Not as much as other people. I'm more of in the moment." He walks over towards her. "We live are longer than the humans. So, we can live our own lives at whatever pace. But that's boring." +

| TW: Blood, Death, emotial trauma | The work was blinking white and red..she felt nothing but pain grasp at her lungs..her heart drummed loud in her ears like thunder as she was giving birth. Naught but the thin sheets beneath her to remind her of where she was. +
