Privaron Espada Nº 107’s Resurrección

[🎙]

[grimmjowjaegerjaquez]

thinking about the idea of grimmjow being relatively young for a hollow i guess bc the idea that he just pops out of the sand one day and jumpscares di roy and everyone is funny to me

[jaegersol]

It’s actually a little remarkable how many character building scenes Grimmjow has for a minor (albeit popular) side antagonist. This is one that’s always stood out to me because this is the first time we learn that Grimmjow is operating under some sort of honor system.

And it’s also our first true glance at his personality. He’s not bluffing or overacting in front of this particular audience because it serves no purpose. He fully intends to kill every individual here at some point, starting with Loly and Melony and moving to Orihime once Ichigo is healed, killed, and she no longer serves a purpose. His expression pretty much never shifts from his neutral bitch face the entire time (with the exception of one small smirk at the beginning, which barely counts compared to what we know a true smirk looks like).

He hasn’t derived any joy from this particular demonstration of violence. This is purely business, and he tells Orihime as much. There’s no reason or value in him lying about this.

AnYWAY! That wasn’t the point of my posting this lil snippet.

Rather I wanted to draw attention to Loly’s dialogue here because I think it’s rather interesting.

L: Y... You realize Aizen-sama will get you for this.

G: Fools... Aizen doesn’t care what I do to you.

L: You’re just a...

G: (Begins to rip off her leg.)

L: Huh? Hey! Wait! What are you...? Stop! Please don’t I... I won’t tell anyone!

G: (Rips off her leg.)

L: Y-You’re dead! I hope Aizen-sama kills-

The wiki denotes Loly and Melony as Aizen’s ‘aides’ though in the context of LN and the arrancar hierarchy, I have no idea where they rest. She seems to think that she rests higher on the totem pole than an Espada which is a very interesting gamble to take in this moment considering

Her perception of her own self importance

Grimmjow’s well known habit for insubordination

The sentence that she didn’t finish is the most interesting one however.

“You’re just a....”

Just a what? An Espada? A brute? A replaceable soldier? It doesn’t sound like she’s winding up for an insult (she’s trying to scare him off, not rile him up more) so it feels more like she’s trying to remind him of his place. Anyway, she doesn’t finish the line, degenerates to begging (which he ignores), but he doesn’t actually outright kill her.

Kinktober Day 5- Grimmjow x Shy!Reader (cockwarming)

        If you were to tell anyone that you and Grimmjow were a thing, no one would believe you. Not that you spoke to any of the other Espadas or Arrancars for that matter. It still seemed to unrealistic that the sadistic man himself would grow a soft spot for you. It took a lot of work, but Grimmjow came around.

        You were part of the first set of Espada made for Aizen. You were the original Sexta Espada. When Grimmjow came along to challenge for your role, you almost turned into putty before you. Without much of a fight, you gladly took on the new title of Privaron Espada. You could have sworn that Grimmjow resented you for the easy victory. After much struggle, you actually found out that he liked the fact that you submitted to him so easily. It was strange to you.

        It took some time, but you had managed to find the courage to talk to him. Most of the Arrancars thought you were insane. You were like a deer in headlights, but apparently Grimmjow liked that. He demanded for you to keep visiting him. In reality, Grimmjow loved seeing you tremble with every word. The idea of him being so powerful that it made you fear him. Turns out your just shy. Grimmjow felt pretty stupid after realizing that.

        He let you join his little group after that. You heard him once, mumbling something about how he wanted to hear you more. It made your face turn red. Eventually, it became just the two of you hanging out. It made your heart race just being near him alone. He always said and did the most out of pocket things. Sometimes you wondered if you were the sane one. You had a crush on this maniac. He could kill you with ease. Hell, he killed people for just looking at him wrong.

"..." Grimmjow glanced down in your direction, watching you draw in the sand, "Wanna go out?" He said bluntly.

        You froze in place, face burning red. Had you heard him correctly? Turning your head slowly, you squeaked as Grimmjow's face stood directly in front of yours.

"I'll take that as a yes," He said, plopping himself beside you. Your lips parted, but no words came out, "Let's make this our first date." He leaned back against the sand, pulling you down with him.

"G-Grimmjow! W-What if...if someone s-sees us?" You finally squeaked, gripping onto his vest. Grimmjow watched as you tried to hide your face,

"Yer right," He sighed heavily before sitting back up, "Guess we'll have to play hookie elsewhere."

        And just like that, you and Grimmjow had started dating. It took you a few hours, but you finally replied to him with a yes. Grimmjow ended up laughing for the rest of the day. Days turned into weeks and Grimmjow had started to break you out of your shell. He was molding you into his perfect little girlfriend and you were all for it. You would do anything for him.

----------

"Tsk, had a fuckin' rough day. C'ere." Grimmjow growled lowly.

        You hesitantly approached your boyfriend, knowing how he gets when angry. He had just returned from a fight that got interrupted by Tosen, lost all his men and had his arm cut off by Aizen. He was not having a good day. Once in front of him, Grimmjow pulled you onto his lap, cussing into the crook of your neck. This time, it was him that was trembling. You wrapped your arms around his back, wondering how much pain he was in from losing his arm.

"W-What can I-I do to help?" You asked him.

        Grimmjow raised his head, forcing a kiss upon you. He held you the best he could with his one arm. He was angry. Normally he'd embrace you softer, enjoying your nervousness. Normally he warn you before he kissed you. Today was not normal. Relaxing under his touch, you told yourself to be strong for him. Grimmjow needed you more. 

"Fuck, I'm going to need more today." Grimmjow told you as he went in for another kiss.

        His kisses were rougher this time around. His tongue forcing itself into you mouth, making sure to leave nothing untouched. You shut you eyes, shivering at the feeling of his tongue dominating yours. He was hungry and angry. Grimmjow wanted relief. Your body arched forward as you felt his hand snack up your back. A small pool of heat forming between your legs, anticipating his next move. You and Grimmjow had been intimate, but only a little. Grimmjow had to warm you up. 

        Your breathing hitched as Grimmjow slid your top off. His tongue trailing down your neck to your breasts. Grimmjow was surprisingly gentle towards you. The farthest he has gotten with you was fingering; however, it seems like today was going to test that. You let out a soft cry as Grimmjow grinded you against his bulge. His nibbled against your nipples, wanting to make sure you felt good. His eyes sparkled as his hand reached the rim of your pants, feeling you move your hips.

"Yer the only one-," Grimmjow whispered lowly.

        You bit your lower lip, shaking as you tried to hear him. Grimmjow tore your pants and his. You wrapped your arms around Grimmjow's neck, allowing his to use his hand on you. This was different, but you had to work with him. Grimmjow didn't mutter a word of thanks as he started to massage your pussy. You started to moan, riding against his hand as he inserted two fingers into you. His touch always made your skin tingle.

"Shit, I can't stand this," Grimmjow hissed. 

        You whimpered softly as he removed his fingers. He grabbed his cock and motioned you with his eyes. You were nervous. Using him as support, you hovered yourself over his harden erection. Slowly making your way down, you tighten your grip against him, feeling yourself being stretched out. Grimmjow groaned lowly, enjoying the feeling of your gummy walls finally surrounding his cock. He could feel each throb of your pussy contorting around him.

"G-Grimm...It hurts," You whispered, still making your way down. Grimmjow kissed your lips,

"Just sit on my lap," He demanded. Once you finally fit him all the way inside you, Grimmjow sighed in relief, "Good, now just stay there." He said, wrapping his one arm around you.

"S-Stay?" 

"Mhpm, don't move." He repeated.

        You shuddered in response. Grimmjow's cock was buried deep inside you. He was far bigger than you imagined. The pain soon started to disappear and turned into something new. Your body grew hotter as you felt yourself start to drip with anticipation. Each time your walls throbbed, you felt Grimmjow's thick dick inside you. Staying still. You could feel every vein and the curve his tip made towards your cervix. Your mind was focusing so much on his dick that you started to drool.

        Grimmjow watched you in amusement. He was holding back every fiber in his being from fucking you dumb. At first this was just his stress relief from what happened, but now...Now it was turning into something more. Feeling you move your hips for friction, Grimmjow chuckled darkly as he held your waist in place. Your cute little whine made him harden more. It made your whine turn into a sexy moan. Now this was pleasure.

"Wha happened to my shy lil kitten? Ain't cha gonna behave?" 

"G-Grimmy~" You wrapped your arms around his neck, clenching against his dick once more, "T-This...This feels...mhm....P-Please m-move," You begged. 

Music to his ears, "Yer not behavin' for me. I said not to move," Grimmjow groaned, "Yer the only one to listen. My lil doll. Shit, I can't afford to lose ya too. I need ya to behave for me."

"Y-Yes...I'll...I'll b-behave," You whined.

        Grimmjow never made bold confessions like this. He usually kept quiet, make a snarky comment, then give you some affection. You were happy with how things were. Feeling his thumb rub against your clit, you cried out loud moans. Grimmjow struggled to keep you in place, wanting to listen to your delicious sounds. Your cunt was sucking him so much. Begging to be filled, begging to be fucked. It almost hurt not moving, but it was going to be worth it.

"G-Grimm!"

        Your body began to burn hotter than before. That pool of heat kept growing as Grimmjow rubbed your clit. With one sudden move of your hips, you gasped. Your back arched forward, moaning loudly as you gushed over his cock. Stars were seen. You body was twitching as your felt your high slowly calm down. If only Grimmjow's cock was buried so deep inside you. Burying your head into his neck, you let out sobs of moans, wanting him to move. Your walls kept sucking and sucking. You needed him to move.

"Almost," Grimmjow inhaled deeply, listening to your sloppy cries.

        Finally, after another ten minutes, Grimmjow gave in. He flipped you onto his bed and began to pound the life out of your cunt. He threw your legs over his shoulder, groaning at how wet and slippery your pussy was. Your body was making such lewd and loud sounds that it was making him crazy. You, yourself, was a babbling mess, moaning his name on repeat. His cock hitting the entrance to your cervix, making your body arch each time.

"Wha happen to my shy girl?" He panted softly, "Yer being so slutty for me. Should have fucked ya sooner if ya were gonna suck my dick this good." Grimmjow smirked.

        You couldn't even respond to him. You brain could barely make a thought since all you wanted was his dick to destroy your pussy. Grimmjow complied, enjoying this moment. He swallowed your moans as he fasten his pace. His cock twitched, ready to unload. To give you want you want. Your body arched into his, reaching another mind blowing orgasm. Grimmjow cussed lowly as you sucked him in before finally releasing his thick load into you.

"Fuck, I needed that." He hissed, watching you catch your breathe, "Damn, look how sexy ya are. Made yer face redder than normal,"

"Griiiiimm," You whimper, attempting to hide your face. Grimmjow moved your arm away, "D-Don't....look,"

"I wanna," He pulled his hips back before slamming his dick inside you once more, "I wanna see em faces ya make for me. I wanna see everythin' ya do for me."

        Your lips trembled as you tried to reply. You could only moan his name as he kept pounding your cunt with force.

"Yer the only one to treat me with respect. Fuck, can't believe I made ya mine."

"Grimm~"

"Yer mine. Remember that. No matter who or what, yer fuckin' mine." Grimmjow spat.

        You just nodded in response, hugging him as he brought out another orgasm from you. Grimmjow wrapped you around his arm, thrusting once more before filling you again. He cussed lowly, claiming you for himself once more.

-------------

        After the war with the Soul Society and the Quincys, you and the remaining Arrancars finally made Hueco Mundo your home once more. It took a long time, but you had managed to help Grimmjow and Harribel build the place back up. You could not lie, you had cried a lot more than you wanted to during the war. Grimmjow did not help by almost dying. He had to make it up to you quiet a bit.

"Yer getting better at being patient." Grimmjow praised as you sat on his cock, "Wha? Been bout...five minutes?"

"D-Don't be...m-mean," You whined. Grimmjow had both his arms wrapped around you as he worked on something on his new desk.

        When Grimmjow got his second arm back, he did not let you rest. He bullied you so much that you almost yelled at him. Of course, you did not have to courage to, but he stopped his teasing when you did raise your voice a little. He found it cute. He loved how obedient and cute you were.

"G-Grimm~"

"Nah, just a bit longer. I like ya sittin' on ma cock. If only ya could see em faces ya make," Grimmjow licked his lips, watching your face contort as you felt him twitch inside you, "Fuck, yer just sucking ma dick with em lips. Want me to fuck yer brains out again?"

"Mhpm~"

"Kay, after a few more minutes."

        You could only whine as you obeyed. You were his good girl. Grimmjow had you wrapped around his finger. Or in this case, he had you wrapped around his dick. His shy little accessory for his cock. And you loved every second of it.

Ulquiorra Cifer - SFW & NSFW Headcanons

[Note: Relationship Headcanons of Ulquiorra Cifer from Bleach. These will take place in a scenario where she fought and replaced Nnoitra as the 5th Espada long before Orihime was kidnapped. Will contain NSFW so minors please do not interact.]

SFW:

The first time you met was when you were introduced as the new 5th Espada. Ulquiorra didn't really think much of you at first besides being impressed with the fact you beat someone as battle-hungry as the now-Privaron Espada (he secretly found you attractive but he wouldn't say it out loud.) Being the polite person you were, you went up to him and tried to make conversation. In classic Ulquiorra fashion, he introduces himself as well but bluntly tells you that "Being an Espada does not allow for such futile things like companionship. I would suggest quitting while you're ahead." If only he knew how wrong those words would be.

After that incident, you decided to give yourself a challenge: befriend Ulquiorra Cifer by any means possible. The latter eventually caught on to what you were trying to do, but decided to entertain it because why not? You would continue to annoy him so might as well see where it leads to.

Over time, the Espada found himself enjoying your presence but he would rather be stuck in a room with Grimmjow before admitting that. Soon enough, a mutual companionship ensued between the two of you, one that was built on joint trust. You would look out for each other whenever there was trouble.

The longer this friendship went on, the bigger the affection grew on both ends. You and your fellow Espada had brewing feelings that threatened to spill over but neither of you were willing to confess. You were afraid of ruining the friendship you worked so hard to develop, while he didn't want to seem weak in front of the others. Or to himself.

After days of dodging and avoiding one another, you finally found the courage to confess. You asked Ulquiorra to meet you at your living quarters. He raises an eyebrow at the sudden request but agreed nonetheless. Later that night, while both of you were sitting on your bed, you took a deep breath and confessed your feelings. Once you were finished, a silence ensued, the Espada's expression remained unchanged. You sighed and got up to leave but he grabbed your hand, making you sit back down. "Where are you going? This conversation isn't finished." Words attempt to leave your mouth but he cuts you off.

"You may be an annoying pest that rattles my brain with your antics but you do so in a way that doesn't make me want to kill you." To the average person, this would sound bizarre and not-so-convincing but you knew he meant well. It may take some time to get comfortable with each other on this level, but you would be there to help him through it all.

The beginning of your relationship was pretty much the same as your friendship. Ulquiorra would still help you out and vice versa, but there was a slight difference. Whenever you spoke with other Arrancars, he would skilfully hide near a corner to keep an eye on you. If the person happened to be Grimmjow, Ulquiorra would stand behind you while staring him down. He isn't exactly fond of the Pantera.

While your stoic lover wasn't a man of words, he did show his care for you through acts of service. Whenever you got injured, he would berate you for being a reckless numb skull while escorting you to the medical bay within Las Noches. This type of love language also occurred in private. Dealing with idiots and Soul Reapers would result in rant sessions of the day's events.

When it came to physical affection, Ulquiorra surprisingly initiated it. Despite his closed off nature, he was curious about things like kissing, holding hands, etc., since he sees humans do it all the time. In the privacy of your shared bedroom, he would suddenly wrap an arm around your shoulder and hold you close.

"In the World of the Living, humans do this to show fondness to one another."

He also did the same thing with your first kiss. You could tell he was a bit inexperienced but it still took your breath away in the best way possible.

NSFW:

In my honest opinion, I feel that Ulquiorra would be a teeny bit clueless when it comes to being intimate. He would know what to do but definitely needed some guidance on when to be gentle or rough. Which is how your first night went down.

Pale hands gripped your waist, his lips moving in sync with your own. As you and Ulquiorra made out, he began to kiss down your neck, softly biting at your sweet spot. You moan and wrap your arms around his neck, pulling him closer to you. After a few seconds, he starts to tug at your clothing, getting a little rough. You gasp out of surprise, stopping him.

"Am I doing something wrong? This is how it's done, no?"

You explain to the Espada that he was doing everything right but in order for the mood to be set, he had to take it slow and gentle. You had some experience, but you wanted this to be special since it is your first real relationship. You cup his face and tell him that you'll happily guide him along the way. You were willing to be patient with him.

Some time later, Ulquiorra finds himself above you, both of your tops already discarded on the floor. The Arrancar unclips your bra and removes it, immediately latching onto your breasts, licking and sucking on your nipples. Whines of his name urges him to up his efforts, your lover kissing his way down your tummy. The teal-eyed male pauses his movements, staring up at you for permission to continue.

"May I continue with my advances?"

With a nod of your head, Ulquiorra grabs the rim of your pants and underwear, the scent of your arousal filling his senses. He couldn't help but stare at your pussy, his mouth watering at the sight of it glistening. Deciding to longer waste time, he proceeds to dig in, devouring his long awaited meal. Your boyfriend may have been a little sloppy at giving head but that didn't stop you from moaning his name and begging him to fuck you silly.

After seeing (and tasting) that you were ready to receive his cock, he detaches his mouth from your cunt, your juices coating his chin. The Arrancar steps back from the bed and removes the rest of his clothing, showcasing his lean figure. You had to admit......he was quite "packed" as some human women like to say apparently. You weren't too sure if he would even fit. He could probably reach your cervix.

And that's exactly what he did. His cock was six inches when flaccid but a good eight when erect. Not to mention he was a bit on the girthy side. You may have been his first sexual partner but he treated your pussy like he knew it all his life. He managed to hit every spot that made you scream, beg and cry.

Whenever ya'll get it on, he'll spend hours just looking at your cunt. He's just fascinated with the way it clenches around his fingers and gushes on his dick when he takes you from behind, front, sideways. Any way really.

"I-i must admit....your -fucking hell- your pussy fascinates me. No matter how many times we do this, you manage to -shit- be so tight...."

[And I'm finally finished with these! I went overboard with these headcanons but I just like Ulquiorra alot lol. These are my first set that I've done so I hope did him justice ^^']

NGL, the Mayuri vs. Giselle fight was ruined for me when the Arrancars appeared. Charlotte was destroyed to particles thanks to Yumichika. Cirucci and Dordoni's were "Cleaned up" by the Exequias. There was no way for them to appear. And then there's the fact that Giselle was somehow able to zombify two hollowfied captains without any consequences to her health. Aren't they supposed to be poisonous to Quincies?

It's just so frustrating. At the point, I just wish Bambi was the only real zombie there so Yumi and Ikkaku could have had an actual fight scene together instead of being an appetizer before zombie Toshiro crashes the party.

Charlotte was not destroyed to particles by Yumichika? This was Charlotte's last appearance IIRC:

As for the others, it was heavily implied back during the Arrancar arc that the Exequias were doing SOMETHING with the Privaron Espada, carting them off to Szayelaporro's lab doesn't seem too ridiculous, and the manga specifically showed Mayuri going in there to collect corpses. Finally, I don't see a problem with Giselle zombifying the Visoreds-- she's not taking their blood into her body! She's giving them hers, and it works on them for the same reason that Bambietta's bombs worked on Shinji: it's an external force.

No, the problem with this fight is that it's just telling a fundamentally flawed story. I may post about it later this weekend.

[midnightactual]

the official and fan translations really don't agree on chapter 552:

but if Bankai and Resurreción are equivalent, then Segunda Etapa and Final Bankai are equivalent, and Ulquiorra did it without any drawbacks whatsoever

from chapter 348 it apparently wasn't the first time he'd ever used it, so he could use it as many times as he wanted. Uryū was there for most of the fight (although he admittedly didn't see the transformation), and Uryū:

was infected with surveillance bacteria per chapter 303

in other words Mayuri, via SRDI staff like Akon, should've had footage, if not far more advanced telemetry, of an Espada using Segunda Etapa, the equivalent of a Shinigami's Final Bankai, and should have known it was theoretically possible to stabilize the latter

this man apparently never researched the matter for even an instant, not on Shinigami or on his resurrected Arrancar, nor did he ever talk to Kisuke about it (nor did Ichigo, Uryū, or Orihime) because if that research ever had happened, TYBW would've been the time to use it or at least mention it as being unready

this dude literally has footage of someone operationally going from an atomic bomb (~20 kt) to a hydrogen bomb (~200–1,000 kt) in lethality and shrugged and went meh to play around with Privaron Espada and Arrancar corpses

are you kidding me

what, did Akon or Hiyosu or somebody delete the footage?

also how the fuck did Ichigo never mention having seen Segunda Etapa after having lost his powers from using Final Bankai? especially when he'd literally seen Uryū lose his powers from using Letzt Stil only to gain them back? Ichigo dude why were you moping around for 17 months when you literally knew people who'd used equivalent powers who either didn't lose them or got them back soon after

like it is INCONCEIVABLE that Mayuri and Kisuke don't know about Final Bankai (Kisuke literally showed up as it ended versus Aizen) and couldn't analogize it to Segunda Etapa and Letzt Stil, and yet neither of them shows any apparent interest in it whatsoever

some scientists

"Oh, the hydrogen bomb? Meh, I don't wanna be Edward Teller, I'm a Robert Oppenheimer kinda guy."

this is likewise INCONCEIVABLE when Kisuke and Mayuri should know Wandenreich is coming, despite their apparent total lack of preparations

unless they deliberately ignored the research avenue to let Wandenreich kill as many people as possible

then they both roll out smartphones and internet streaming by NBFH to bring down Shinigami culture hmmmmm no conspiracy there no sir

[deivorous]

Hollow Society

Something's been tickling at my brain recently. The below is by no means a comprehensive review, and I don't particularly have any coherent thoughts, so anyone, please feel free to add your own.

Hueco Mundo isn't culture-less like the vast expanse of fandom portrays.

There are, in fact, at least three key pieces of evidence that support this.

Forms of government precede Aizen's involvement in Hueco Mundo.

There are multiple instances where hollows have been shown to exist in community structures, and at least one that involves an actual neighborhood.

Hueco Mundo contains ruins.

Government in Hueco Mundo

The first point is one that I believe we're all cognizant of. Specifically, Barragan was regarded as a 'King'. Whether he is actually perceived as one by the population of Hueco Mundo is debatable. However, he's exceptionally old, and has likely held his position for many many millennial. He also is describing the rather small gathering of hollows (they are all presumed to be adjuchas) as an 'army'. I wonder for what purpose he formed an army to begin with, and have determined that the most likely reason as consistent with his character is to create a sense of authority for himself.

Just a few quick observations to point out to you:

He's in possession of a OLD metal bell - it is in poor repair, but I warrant it is an item of great value because despite it's disrepair it's still afforded a prize location above the God-King's throne.

He's one of only a handful of hollows depicted wearing clothing (prior to Aizen). It's a tattered fur-collared cloak. The other item if clothing belonging to his servant woman and is just a plain tunic.

On the clothing note, the crown may or may not be part of his mask but an individual item as seen in the fact that its different after he becomes an arrancar.

She is in possession of a carafe. It could be water or something else - again the implication is that this is an item of luxury.

The scene we meet him in is 'Las Noches', and Tousen mocks him for the sorry state of it.

My main point with this is less the existence of Barragan's kangaroo court, and more the evidence of relics indicating a period before the existence of his reign (the bell, the crown. the carafe).

Secondly, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong (as I haven't actually read the novels myself) but I believe the espada pre-date Aizen as well. Many of the arrancar who have the titles of Privaron are naturally occurring arrancar, which afford them power beyond Barragan and his army of adjuchas. Their attempt to create an element of stability in Hueco Mundo (though ultimately a failure) is telling.

Hollow Communities

Barrangan's army, while small, indicates something other than his feeble attempt at control which is: Hollows naturally do come together in social settings. We see this as well with Grimmjow and his pack (and he's certainly not the only hollow in a pack). And a third time, glossed completely over, in Nnoitra's flashback - which is the most interesting of the three.

Neliel specifically refers to the location as a 'colony'.

The image depicts what looks like dwellings of some sort carved into the rock formations behind them. Hundreds of non-nomadic hollows were all living together in a community in some relative form of harmony, and their postal code (so to speak) is recognized by Nel, Nnoitra, and Aizen who charged them with exploring the colony and recruiting any Vasto Lordes present.

Nnoitra points out that there isn't one present, which indicates that all of these hollows came together despite their cannibalistic requirements, without the oversight of a stronger power forcing them to conform to a set of pro-social behaviors.

very interesting.

Finally,

The Negal Ruins

I've already touched on the bell.

Now I'd like to touch on the elephant in the room, which actually inspired this post to begin with. I don't know if anyone else has explicitly written on the topic - but this has to be one of the most fascinating things Kubo never touched.

Hueco Mundo is included in the Soul Societies genesis story - it was created, allegedly, by the Shiba family to house the hollows and prevent consumption of normal human souls. The sand is supposedly made of all the dusted bones of what must be billions of hollows when the Soul King, in a fit of rage and disgust, destroyed them all upon their banishment. While this did not prevent the creation of new hollows, it does contribute to the god-like lore of the Soul King. THe key take away is that Hueco Mundo is an artificial land - and hollows are not native to it, but rather were herded into it as a way to separate them from the humans and spirits (and forced them towards their cannibalistic diet, rather than preying on plus souls).

Despite this, the story never discusses the Negal Ruins.

My two quick-fire evidence points that this is a brand new, distinctly different location is 1) the architecture is drawn completely differently to that of any version of Las Noches and 2) it has a roof.

Barragan's Las Noches did not have a roof.

A roof implies a certain level of sophisticated engineering that it seems Barragans Hollows were not capable of. It implies a certain amount of education and cooperation.

Presumably the name of the ruins were related to Team Ichigo by Grimmjow or Nelliel (Orihime is the one who officially says the name) however Kisuke is the one that directed everyones (independant??) transit to the ruins. One can assume there would have been a reason for this (Kisuke seems to be doing some sort of research), Kubo never returns to this particular plot-hook.

What's specifically interesting to me, however, is how a ruin like this came to exist in the first place. While Kisuke has knowledge or Shinigami records of the location I doubt it's from Shinigami construction given HMs genesis story and the Shinigami's hands off approach to HM for the most part.

A hollow community of some sort must have constructed it at some point, and since then the place has fallen into disrepair. Whatever community, government, or sect may have built and maintained it is long gone - an entire era lost with nothing more than the bones of it's buildings left behind.

I don't have a neat, tidy point to finish with, so I leave you with this:

Even after Aizen's meddling, arrancar still reside within Las Noches. The community remained even without shinigami enforcement (I doubt Hallibel or Grimmjow were forcing them to stay). Hueco Mundo has an entire history no one knows about. It's population has a society.

In the wake of the Winter War and Thousand Year Blood War, it's a population that was completely decimated.

I think Hollows are truly miserable creatures, and I love that. Sadly there aren’t many blogs that portray them as such. I decided creating one to share my ideas and partake in others' headcanons was a good idea.

Some things I’d like to establish about the blog are:

This blog is for Hollows + Vizards and maybe Uryu's dad lol only

GUIDANCE

I won’t write for:

Barragan

Zommari

Yami

The whole “Privaron Espada”

Ichigo!Hollow

I think all of them are marvelous characters, but I’m not that familiar with their personalities to venture and write about them. I hope this changes over time.

Please do not send me more than 6 characters per request.

I don’t write about drug/substance abuse unless is something harmless as smoking weed or drinking, but nothing heavy.

I won’t write ped*philia, rape, sexual harassment, or any kind of sexual violence. Dub-con is negotiable, tho. But still, I might say no.

I don't like writing about suicide or depression. I probably won't.

I don't write Male OC / reader / self-insert, or whatever you wish to call it. Gender neutral is ok, tho!

Hope you enjoy your stay!

Privaron Espada Nº 105’s Resurrección

[🎙]

[tigrextoque]

@apocalypta-secundus: “Good, you’re holding up well.” (From Leyre of course!)

Of course he's holding up well. He's one of the True King's elite soldiers, the only ones honored with the gift of being chosen to follow him directly. He'd be shamed not to keep up with someone as relatively low-ranking as a Privaron Espada... ...Despite his difficulties keeping up with Dordoni. "Who exactly do you think you're talking it?" He scornfully asked, cocking his head slightly to the side.

Standing confidently as the cloud of dust behind him dissipated, stalwart in his position. Seemingly calm and undeterred. His blade held tightly in his hand as his clothes and skin showed numerous dirty parts from being smacked into solid rock; despite the lack of serious damage on him. "If anything, I'm surprised the Privaron Espada is only this strong. Is this the best you can do?"

actually since tesla is 50 hes still pretty weak in general

*POUNCES ON THIS LIKE IM A SHARK IN BLOODY WATER*

This actually isn't true bc we're told (perhaps even multiple times) that the Arrancar are simply labelled in Birth/Creation Order. The exceptions are the Espada who are numbered 0-9 in order of strength, and the Privaron Espada who are numbered 100-109 to match their former Espada number.

So with that in mind, Tesla was simply the 50th Arrancar created, and his strength has nothing to do with the number he was given.

Note:

Also as a short explanation. Aizen is 100% capable of stripping the Espada of their powers, just look at the Privaron, yet he would usually not threaten them with it, nor does he see a need to do so. After all, it would disregard their "worth" amongst them, but with the replacement of Nelliel with Harribel and the temporary replacement of Grimmjow with Luppi, he already did show that he uses it as a means to further his own goals, or as a sort of punishment, it is not out of the ordinary.

The threat towards Toby's Nnoitra is a particular one.

" Shall I strip that power away from you? Have you start from nothing at all? "

He legitimately means that he would start him all over again. Would strip him clean down of all of his powers and make him fight his way back to the top and then see if he was worth the time and effort from the beginning. That is a particular threat he would only give to Nnoitra - and nobody else.

And amusingly enough: it is actually because he favours Nnoitra and 'likes' him, as weird as this may sound.

i once had a bleach oc. they were a privaron espada, number 101. they had a bad tendency to eat the las noches sand of hueco mundo, and would often just sit alone...thinking about what to eat next... they legit tried all the materials in hueco mundo cuz isn't it just spiritual reishi anyway? and their hair made them look like Nnotoira(?) and their hollow hole was in... i forgot but it was like in their face or chest. and they had a very intimidating mask despite looking like a chill auntie or something

Cirucci Sanderwicci x Reader // For The First Time

Author’s Note: A simple AU where an Arrancar falls in love with a human. Gender neutral. Reader uses they/them. [also please don't mind me. I just love arrancars too much.] also i know this is probably super out of character for her, but don't pay it any attention. This is my first time writing for her, but she’s one of my guilty pleasures. She's just so beautiful. I was actually gonna write this for Loly Aivirrne, but I’m going thru a huuuge Cirucci brainrot at the moment 😅

Finally… Finally after months of failed efforts to get your girlfriend to cuddle with you, she gives in.

For the past several months, you’ve heard it all; “No way!” “Not in a thousand years!” “Over my dead body!” You never gave up, which pissed Cirucci off to no end. You were just so damn prevalent. No matter what harmful words she said, or how many times she’d scoff in your face, you’d come crawling back and politely offering the Privaron Espada a loving night in your bed. How insulting! Creatures like her didn’t deserve to be treated so nicely! But that's not what you thought... Unknown to Cirucci, she was all you wanted in a lover. She was drop-dead gorgeous, and the fact that a woman like her would give you a chance is a miracle on its own. Who cared if she was so bold and brash? She was still your girlfriend after all!

Before tonight, you had noticed some progress with Cirucci; for starters, she wasn’t as cold as she was when you first met. In some strange way, she was starting to become fond of you. Little things like sitting down and watching whatever you had on the TV or idly peeking over your shoulder and secretly reading a few pages of the book in your hands. She thought she was being so sneaky, but what she didn’t see was the little rise in your lips when you noticed these things. Nowadays, she didn’t really mind it when your fingers would accidentally make contact or when your shoulders would brushed together. It seemed like everyday she was warming up more than she wanted too. Of course you’d never tell her, knowing she’d berate you for about five minutes before scurrying off, but it was a nice confidence boost that things were getting better. So when she finally agreed to share a bed for the night, you were more than euphoric.

“Don’t get your hopes up, [Y/N]! I’m only doing this because you’re so damn pesky!” On the way to your bedroom, all she’s doing is teasing you as much as possible - itching to get under that thick skin of yours. She’s warning you about the hollow mask… And the hollow hole… Whatever… All you cared about was spending the night with the one woman you loved the most. Not to mention that you found her little jests to be quite appealing.

But Cirucci is all talk; once she has a vision of your bedroom, she’s radio silent. This time, you actually will speak about this.

“Don’t tell me you're scared, Cirucci” You say, reassuring your Arrancar lover with a soft grin.

“Me? Scared? Don’t be so foolish, [Y/N]!” Despite her obvious perplexity to the new situation, Cirucci is still trying to keep up her tough persona that she’s known for. The both of you know it’s no good; it’s all just talk.

“Then join me.” It’s only three simple words, but it shakes your lover to the core. As you collapse onto your bed with a heavy sigh, the Arrancar who was so set on proving you wrong is stuck in her tracks. Violet eyes are focused on you, your movements, your position and your body. Cirucci can forgive herself later. For now, she wants to experience this and she wants to experience this with you.

Silently, with her eyes still focused on you, Cirucci steps closer to the bed. Within a few steps, she’s right by the edge. Now the fun can really begin. There’s a bit of hesitation from Cirucci, so you instinctively grab the Arrancar’s hand. She’s quick to react, flinching as if you raised your hand to strike her, but she doesn’t draw her hand back. Her fingers are trembling, but once Cirucci gets used to the warmth of human flesh, she gently squeezes onto your hand.

“See? Nothing to be scared of” With a smile, you lure the Arrancar even closer until her body is laying next to yours. The bed is so comfortable that your girlfriend almost forgets about the situation she’s in. No way has she ever felt something so relaxing in her life. While you let her adjust to the coziness, your thumb is idly tracing circles unto the back of Cirucci’s hand. It’s so subtle that the Privaron didn’t notice it. You had closed your eyes, assuming this was all the progress that was to be made until… Cirucci positioned her head on your shoulder, even going as far as to adjust her body into a better position. The tiny hairs on the back of your neck stand up like sticks in the mud once you feel your girlfriend’s steady breathing on your neck.

With your free hand, you wrap a blanket around both of your bodies. The blanket is large enough to cover you both perfectly. Oh, how she loved it. Cirucci felt so peaceful in the moment, not caring about how unusual it was for someone like herself to enjoy such an activity. She was sure that none of the other Arrancars would let her live this down, but she didn’t care. If they could feel how great this felt, they’d all want to experience it as well.
