Updates

Hello everyone ! 

Thank you so much for the follows, reblogs and likes ! A huge thank you to the people who put kind words into their tags, I do read them, ya’ll so sweet !

- I have slightly updated my rules page. I now accept asks about other Bleach characters. Imagines are still Kuchiki only though. Please read the rules for more details.

- I now have a working on page so you can follow the progress and what’s to come, especially if you’ve sent me an ask.

That’s all for now !

((Ps : To angst anon ! Are you okay with the mistake being somewhat related to Hisana, because, man, that would add so much drama I’m down for it. Lemme know please!))

[kuchikiclan]

Are you willing to write angst, and if yes, what are your rules regarding that?

I honestly don’t know. I guess it all depends on the prompt. If I’m inspired by the prompt and feel like I can tackle it, I will ! So feel free to submit the ideas you had and I’ll see what I can do !

No specific rules either as long as it’s not sexual and other sensitive subjects.

Thank you for asking !

Hey, congratulations on the new blog! Question for you, how do u think byakuya would be like if both his parents were still alive? And also, how do u think his mom looked/acted?! Thanks in advance!

Thank you anon, that’s so sweet ! And thanks for asking !

- Hmm good question ! I think ultimately, he’d probably be close to what he is now, though, he’d probably be less stoic all the time.

Considering that during Turn Back the Pendulum, which happens after both of his parents’s deaths, he’s pretty fiery, actually smiling and being over the top so yeah I don’t think he’d change that much. Though, I’d love to see adult Byakuya acting just like teen Byakuya because it’d be totally hilarious. Kinda like Senbonzakura in the filler arc. He’d probably be more relaxed at home though, plus he’d only have the 6th Squad to take care of since the Kuchiki Clan Leader title would go to his father. 

So, is it the Captain rank or the Clan Leader rank that made him change so much ? Pretty hard to say, I’d guess both.

- As for his mother, aka the luckiest women in the whole Soul Society, I like to think she’s the one Byakuya inherited his temper from. As for looks, I image her looking similar to Sawako from  Kimi ni todoke in terms of haircut. (Hair is a serious business in the Kuchiki Clan). For personality, something in between Rukia’s awkwardness and Yoruichi’s confidence. She was a great complement to Soujun’s personality and they were a great fit for each other. They liked to laugh like idiots to the lamest things. Only in private though. Noblesse oblige.

Hello! I’ll be one of your first asks. Imagine Byakuya telling his father and asking for his blessing to marry Hisana. How will Sojun react and will he be pleased with Hisana as Byakuya’s choice? What fatherly advice will Sojun give to Byakuya on marriage? Thank you.

Thank you for being my first ask, I’m honored !

Oh good question ! I admit I never really thought of it since I believe that Soujun most likely died before Byakuya even met Hisana, but WHAT IF ??

- I think Soujun would be split on the issue. On one hand, he’d be happy to see that his son he’s so enamored with Hisana that he’d consider marrying her, on the other hand, he’d be worried about the whole “noble marries a commoner” thing and the shitstorm that’s coming. While he wouldn’t oppose the wedding, he’s not really supporting it either (at least not publicly) and thinks that Byakuya is old enough to make his own choices anyways and that he’ll support him regardless.

- As far as Hisana is concerned, Soujun doesn’t think she’s a good fit for the whole “wife of the Clan’s Head” deal. He knows because he sees a lot of himself in her, both of them being prone to illness and stuff. Personality wise, he does like her and thinks she completes Byakuya’s fiery temper nicely. She would often hang out with his Soujun when his taking care of his hawks and it would always be a peaceful time. (it’s my headcanon that Soujun really liked birds and took falconry has a hobby)

- As for marriage advice, he’d probably tell him to not rush things, be patient, considerate and respect boundaries. To be a good listener and to learn to open his heart more to his spouse. And that while they’re now a unit, they’re still individual people with their own characters and needs. That arguments will happen, but that they need to tackle them together and not fight each other.

Renji’s First Day

or the first meeting with the glorious Seaweed Ambassador.

((This short story is inspired by @kaickos​ adorable artwork in this specific post.))

English isn’t my first language. Also first time I’m actually writing for a fandom, be nice. Plz ;v;

                                                              ---

Today was the day. After passing the qualifications, today would be Renji’s first day as the vice-captain of the 6th Division, and he was a nervous mess. He had been waiting for this moment for years. Finally he would be close to the man he wanted to surpass and maybe ... Maybe he could pretend to Rukia’s friendship once more.

These were the thoughts that were racing through his mind as he walked toward the barracks of his new division. He hadn’t slept at all that night, nervous as he was. In front of the main gate, a man was waiting for him, waiving and smiling.

-” Ah ! Ah ! Here comes my successor ! “ he said, slamming his hand on Renji’s shoulder. “I’ve been waiting for you, let me show you around. Name’s Ginjiro Shirogane by the way, but I’m sure you already know that.” he added, laughing.

Shirogane was a man of average height, bald for the most part, but with a luxurious mustache. He was what you call a bon vivant. Generally friendly, but knew how to be serious when he needed to.

- “ There you have the training grounds, over there the infirmary. You also have the men’s dorms this way and the women’s on the other side.” he explained while Renji was trying his hardest to retain the information Shirogane was bombarding him with.

- “Over there are the women’s shower room, you’re not allowed to go peeking !” he added, giving Renji the stinky eye before erupting into laughter again, knowing full well he embarrassed him.

While all the barracks were virtually the same in every division, the 6th was arranged very differently of what he was used to in the 11th. For one, there were no wooden swords scattered everywhere and no bottles of sake either.

Before realizing it, they stopped in front of the massive wooden doors of the Captain’s office.

-” And here, you have the Captain’s office. He’s not here right now so don’t be so nervous. Despite having your own office, trust me, you’ll spend a lot of time in this room too. Captain Kuchiki’s private quarters are down this corridor but I wouldn’t recommend going there, unless there’s an emergency. Follow me, I’ll show you your office.” he added waving for Renji to come after him.

Renji took a deep breath before opening the doors to his new office and a new beginning. The atmosphere in this room was warmer than in the captain’s. The sun shone softly on the desk near the wide window in the back of the room. On both sides of the walls, massive shelves with years if not centuries of paperwork. On the right side of the wall, a coffee table with two couches around it.

-”As the vice-captain, you are the link between the captain and the subordinates. If they have any issues or need to talk to someone, you are the first person they’ll come to. You’ll probably spend more time talking and helping your subordinates on these couches than relaxing, I tell you !” Shirogane said after following Renji’s glance. “That’s part of the job.”

Nodding at Shirogane’s explanation, Renji noticed another desk, right by the door, on the left side of the room.

-”And what about this desk ? Is it for the 3rd seat ?” he asked, pointing at the desk.

Shirogane’s face darkened as he suddenly looked upset.

-” No...” he sighed. “You see, this is the desk of the vice-captain that was there before me, Kuchiki Soujun-dono.”

-”Kuchiki ?” asked Renji, surprised.

-”Yes, Byakuya-dono’s father. A great man and a kind soul. Wasn’t cut for the army but he was a great vice-captain nevertheless. You know how the 13th Division never got over Shiba’s death ? It’s kinda the same here in a way. Kuchiki Ginrei-dono has never been able to let anyone else other than his son use this desk so when the Central 46 kept pushing for him to promote a new vice-captain, he just got a new desk so this one would be left alone. When he retired, it just stayed that way. I please ask you to not use it. The Captain hasn’t said anything about it but in the 40 or so years he’s been in charge, the desk hasn’t moved either. It is as it was the day Soujun-dono died.”

.

.

.

It was now 22:00pm and Renji was alone in his new office, finally able to catch his breath after one hell of a day. A bunch of the squad members came to pay him a visit throughout the day, some were newbies fresh out the academy, others had been in the division for over 200 years already. He quickly noticed that while the newer members paid no mind to his predecessor’s desk, the older members usually tapped it quickly before exiting the room, like a small ritual.

As he was getting out of the room to get a well deserved night rest, he realized that some paper was sticking out of the last drawer. He grabbed it thinking it would be some old paperwork but instead, he was greeted by a paper full of scribbles done in bright and colorful pens. The drawing was a stick figure wearing black and some sort of white cape with the word “grandfather” beneath it. “Is this drawing Captain Kuchiki’s doing ?” Renji thought, chuckling. Curious and amused, he opened the drawer.

There were so many drawings it was a miracle that drawer was able to be closed at all. There were many representing, probably as it was mostly stick figures, a young kid and an adult man, both wearing the shinigami uniform, smiling with zanpakutos in their hands. What was common on all of them, was a drawing of a weird greenish creature with black dots for eyes, impressive eyebrows and a ravishing smile, the Seaweed Ambassador, as noted in the caption. “What even is that thing ...” Renji thought as he kept browsing through the drawings.

The sound of footsteps coming closer brought him back to reality as he rushed to put everything back where it belonged.

-”Ah Captain, good evening !” he quickly said, nervous. “Did you need something ?”

-”You weren’t there for it but next week the Gotei 13 have a festival and we’re going to all sell different things. Here’s our division’s design for treats, please forward it to the group who volunteered to make them. That’s all.”

-”Ah, yes, of course!” replied Renji, nervous and bowing as Byakuya was already gone.

Renji looked at the paper his Captain left him with. The final design for the treats.

Seaweed Ambassador.

-”Seriously ??”
