BLEACH QUEST XVIIII.5
>Not XIX, XVIIII. That’s how we roll when we go Full KUBO

Previous threads archived: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Bleach%20Quest
Bleach Quest Twitter: https://twitter.com/QuestOp
Thread (XII) at Suptg- http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/25667025/

First, let me explain how dice rolls work here on Bleach Quest. I take the best of three, barring any Critical Successes or Critical Failures. If I have not yet asked for dice, and you roll anyway, your roll will count towards the next time I ask for rolls be it for good or ill. After I get three results for a roll, all others are discarded. Normally I take best of 3.

>CRITICAL MASTER I

From now on any and all crits within the first ten rolls, good or bad, are stored to be used on the next roll, exponential affecting it if there’s more than one.

>In the Blood

You’ve awakened your inherent Quincy blood!

>Sixth Sense

Takes the first five rolls when searching for spiritual energy

>I'm running behind because of my bitch of a mother, so I'll answer one question, not about the mystery box, that isn't a rules lawyer question that you al agree on while I set up.

Well at least we learned she's alive; but not her capacity, intentions, or anything like that.
Never did get that aside, but whatever at this point.

As for asking what captains are with us. Probably none of them. We have a very VERY slim chance to plant a seed of doubt in Shiro when (not if) we encounter him, but that's about it.

>>
>>25922272
This one's a free answer that doesn't count towards the question.

I do a lot to help out around the house because my folks, mainly my dad, let me live there for now. My mom doesn't work, but she doesn't do anything either. Literally, she just sits around all day.

I'm literally her servant, so she'll literally tell me to do menial tasks all the time, such as make her coffee, despite the fact I'm half the house away. I also have a very manual labor intensive job, but she doesn't care and gives me shit for anything I do if it 'isn't up to her standards.'

This includes making me drop everything I'm doing because she wants to run up to the store and if she's forced to go alone she'll make my life more miserable. This is also a woman who, despite me being a model honors student when I was in K-12, basically made me know all the time why her life is miserable, and that my family, as a whole, is full of ungrateful assholes and if anything happens to her she does not want to be resuscitated because she'd rather die.

Those kinds of conversations still go on to this day, worsened by the fact she also acts childlike sometimes now and does shit like get up in my face and psychologically fuck with me.

I'm pretty sure she needs to see professional help, but god knows that'll never happen.

But that's something I've resigned myself to.
>>
>>25922458
yes, but could we ever get another bro or waifu?
The zanpakutou rebellion would be an excellent time to see this idea in action.

You know, that really bummed me out. We never got the option to maybe keep her around or anything, she just disappeared from the quest between scenes without any real warning.

I mean, I get there might be 'reasons' involved we didn't see or were made aware of, but the only character from the entire franchise I genuinely liked got put on a bus and the only status update we got is that she's running from the cops and probably hasn't been killed yet.
>>
>>25922578
I think it was because we failed that diplomacy roll to have her use the gigai (and thus get hogyouku'd)

yeah, its kind of sad, but i feel Cos has something awesome planned for her. I mean, he's made some pretty terrible characters awesome, so I can't wait for Rukia's awesome re-introduction

Her initial roll in the story was voided due to our death so she became a non critical throw-away character. Just like the first soul reaper ichigo fought to defend her in the anime/ manga.
MAYBE Cosgrove will grace us with a big fat old peek into that situation like he seemed to hint at, or maybe even an entire quest thread where we're in her shoes; but I highly doubt any of that will happen again.
In character she'll always just be "that cute shorty shinigami with the bucket hair". Pretty much the equivalent of a girl you meet at a coffee shop, but never end up taking her number.
>>
>>25922549
Shame man. Most I can say is I hope things improve & hope you wind up in a position to have your own place. Friend of mine was in a somewhat similar position and once he got away from it he was feeling and acting noticeably happier. The kind where people can visibly tell you're happy.

I really hope that wasn't the reason. Or at least not the only one.

>>25922625

Eh. She was pretty awesome as is. I mean, none of the 'terrible' characters were really bad, they just never had a shot at proper development.

I'm keeping on because there's some cool stuff and the idea of raping canon amuses me greatly. It's just.... favorite character got put on a bus almost 20 threads ago. Shit sucks.

>>25922705

Finish off that one skill and then put the rest into the really long one.

>>25922705
Finishing the middle hollow skill gives us rank 0 right? Reguardless, finish that off and put the rest towards unlocking that defensive skill.

Well she allegedly attacked a captain and has been in hiding ever since. Beyond that we don't know shit, and neither does Momo... at least not that she'll tell us and we don't want to risk name-droping Rukia or painting a description of her.

Hell if we do see her again, maybe she will have gotten really badass or something.

No there was a guy with a straw hat if my memories right. Not the captain mind you, just some random reaper.

Last time!

>Ishida gives you a tight nod.

>“I’m going on a food run. Do you need anything?”

>Check on family

You give him a nod. “Yeah. Could you heck on my family? It isn’t a good idea for me to leave here, but I’d like to know that they’re okay.”

Ishida gives a nod of assent and a wave farewell as he opens the door and walks out, closing it behind him. From the lights you saw, it seems like it’s evening now. You’re tired from the training, as is Momo, but you think you’ve improved some.

Ask her if the "go really fast" technique has an actual name.

Because we've alternated between calling it the Cat Walk and GOTTA GO FAST in our head, but neither sound quite right.
>>
>>25922281
...Wonder if I shouldn't have asked this.
>>
>>25922919
No, she probably attacked her own captain thinking he was Aizen or that he was doing something shady or whatever. In any case we don't know who it was, why she did it, or if she even did. The only thing we do know is that the captain in question has said the whole situation surrounding the attack is unnecessary.

>You feel like you might have the ability to pierce through space and reach a place more safe for hollows.

Urahara said he would send someone to meet with us and we haven't heard anything and knowing that guy whoever he sent has probably just been chilling in the warehouse all day waiting for us to point it out.

>>25923004
But this is what I think we ought to do.
This and try sensing- can we tell if Murdermidget's nearby, or has BEEN nearby in the recent hours?
He's likely letting out a ton of energy, if the snow is anything to go by, but if we use that as a standard, we should be able to find where it's concentrated, right?
>>
Save Garganta for an emergency situation. Otherwise we mention the feeling to Urahara next time we see him.

Which reminds me, we need to get a phone in here, since apparently our cell-phones don't work.

Maybe we can figure out a work-around, but the ability to call in and out of Nowhere would be helpful.

The funny thing is, I could see Mayuri making her put on outfits trying to understand what's so special about a catgirl in a bikini as opposed to a regular woman.

Little light banter with her now that she seems more assertive and more like her when we first met...before her breaking.

The manga and anime tell us it was actually because of the Hougyoku which was inside Rukia's Gigai. We don't know where the Hougyoku is in this quest.

Eh, why bother trusting the word of Aizen. It paints a pretty picture, but its more abstract than cubism.
>>
>>25923212
Damn, so there is a limit to our potential pool of human allies.
Ok, prioritize Chad (it's Chad!), Orihime (Healer/Barrier Babe/Freaking Chronomancer! (sort of)) and Chizuru (Box of Mystery!)
After that I'd say it's neck and neck for me (I want them all) but I'm leaning slightly towards Tatsuki.
>>
>>25923371
...Also that implies that Rukia already had the plot gem when she first met Ichigo.
>>
>>25923398
... go read the archive of thread 10
We're supposidly getting a new cover every 20 "chapters"
>>
>>25923314

I see it more as "Alright, men attracted to naked women. Makes perfect sense. Why in particular maids though?"

"... Is that why I'm wearing this frilly disaster?"

"Yes. For science."

"How is this at all scientific?"

"I'm wearing a labcoat."

"... Oh god, you're sounding like Ichigo."

Long awkward silence. "Son of a bitch, I could've just gone back to the human world and hung around with him! What am I doing in this lab?"

"Modeling for me."

"Shut the fuck up."

"Shut the fuck up 'sir'."

".... Really?"

"Rank is important. It's basically the only reason I get away with anything."
>>
>>25923371
Except that (if memory serves) a later chapter confirms that he was wrong, and the reason developed their abilities because Ichigo sprays his Reishi around like a busted fire hydrant. Much like how Orihime doesn't actually reverse time, she goes "I reject your reality, and substitute my own." so hard that the universe goes along with it.
>>
>>25923431
I like this.
It makes me hate him less for being a ghost nazi scientist
>>
>>25923452
Actually the leaky powers was the default explanation.

It was contradicted when Aizen basically started singing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KThlYHfIVa8

...Of course, he could have just been lying his ass off because he gets off on that.
>>
>>25923452
Nah, that was an earlier chapter.

>>25923469

I just like the idea of him being aware of exactly how evil and crazy he looks to other people.

He's like a more intelligent Deadpool: His real super-power is being Genre Savvy.
>>
>>25923371
>>25923327
That's just KUBO retcon. Judging by what we ought to know by this point in time, we give them powers by osmosis.
That, and the powers they DO have are bolstered by ours. We kinda knew this when people suddenly started developing theirs when Ichigo became a fountain of souls.

We don't know nothin' about a god-making macguffin.

>ask about movement technique

You look over at Momo. “Hey Momo, does this Speed technique we've been working on have an actual name...I've been referring to it as Cat Walk so far and it doesn't really fit.”

She gives you an odd look. “Cat walk?”

You shrug. “I don’t have a better name for it. I was taught by one of Urahara’s associates, Yoruichi, who is a talking cat.”

She giggles lightly before smiling. “Well, I’ll have to remember that name in the future. But as to movement and footwork, that is, overall, referred to as Hoho. However, its greatest expression is Shunpo, which is what most people refer to.”

You give her a nod and word of thanks as she shakes her head. “It’s no problem, Ichigo. I’m happy to be of help.”

You close your eyes as you try to feel out with your sixth sense..

>20

You feel static around the warehouse but you can vague make out a powerful Reiatsu moving over Karakura town. You grimace and let your sixth sense fade.

“…He’s still out there.”

Momo gives you a nod, trying to keep her smile on her face even though it looks forced.

“He isn’t likely to give up. Only if he’s ordered to do would I expect him to give up, and if that’s the case they’ll either have given up or have sent someone more deadly.”

Momo looks away, blinking her eyes rapidly.

I am imagining a Resident Evil 3 Nemesis type situation going on here and it actually has me a little scared.

That said, at night I think we need to be quieter and more desecrate in our training so as not to trip any alarms. Ask Momo if there's something we can do that's quiet. Maybe some yoga or something so we can get more comfortable with our spirit body and its capabilities.

"Which is assuming we wouldn't be able to talk him down."

Can we train Reitsu control at all? I'd like to be able to tone down our gigantic target we have painted on us sometimes.

Bite open a gaping maw in physical space, then cheese it. That is the backup plan that won't endear us to the Soul Society one bit.

Its basically saying to SS that "yup, Momo's a member of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor", but its better than getting dead if it comes down to it.
>>
>>25923777

Comfort momo but keep it as platonic as possible.

Afterwords do some light Quincy power training, we've been lacking that.

Also once Ishida comes back we should have him grab Chad and Orihime. Time to find out what they've been learning from floppy hat. Oh and while he's out we should have him call our father. Let him know whats up with the captain situation and our warehouse. We should probably tell him about mom's stuff too, and if he wants he can come and get some once things calm down.
>>
>>25923982
...Yeah why not.

We're both probably still tired from going eleven rounds with each other.
>>
>>25923923

Well at this point we don't even know how to form a bow. Might be a useful skill to learn, and it shouldn't cause very much destruction.
>>
>>25923987

Speaking of dad's. I am willing to bet that Ryuuken is going to be mighty pissed we took the Masaki boxes...and he seems like the kind of guy that Kido barriers mean little too.

We know it isn't a good plan. That's why it isn't our main plan, but the back-up. Better to be an enemy of Soul Society and in Ghost Mexico than dead.

Need I brink up Hime's obvious noble sacrifice foreshadowing? She's going to Ash Ketchum herself between us and short stuff. Wait and watch.
>>
>>25924088

Actually, if Hitsugaya finds us...we might want to parlay. Ore feign ignorance, no one in this abandon warehouse but this punk and a cute chick...what do you mean it's invisible, get out of town. Hey, did you know it's snowing in summer?

In all seriousness, we need to parlay with Hitsugaya...on even footing. Here's the plan.

1. Find way to leave a reishi heavy message written in the snow for him to find with a local cafe, a date, and a time during peak service hours. Telling him to come wearing a gigai, get a table, and order a specific drink. This is a safety measure for both him and us. In a gigai he is unable to immediately access his sword...but in a human body in a public place, most empowered humans aren't going to out themselves. This sets the stage clandestinely to meet on even footing with violence and possibly aggression momentarily suspended.

What will really get him to bite is if the reishi laced message is full of Hinamori's spirit pressure,
>>
>>25924150
I'm hoping that we run into them a lot earlier.

They blend in more with low-powered Bleach.

Unfortunately we still know nothing about what Ginjou's whole deal was, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon.

>>25924187

The Vizards, the Vanderreich, and X-Ecution show up at the front door of our warehouse to offer us competing deals in their secret societies/factions.
>>
>>25924178
>She's going to Ash Ketchum herself between us and short stuff
Oh HELL no. Not unless we can figure out some way (I don't really know much about Bleach, honestly. I dropped it halfway through SS initially, and while I'm currently working my way through it again I'm still pretty early on) to turn that into her becoming a Vizard.
>>
>>25924183
... We're Ichigo. For how often our Inner Hollow jerks off about us thinking too much, we are extremely reckless, stupid, and short tempered.
Also he's a ghost cop. He'll agree to meet us there, then just sting us super easy. He's there to do a job, not shoot the shit.
>>
>>25924178
I'm pretty sure we made our position abundantly clear on the matter.

I mean we actually slapped her.

If Hinamori is even vaguely co-dependent, I'm pretty sure that's the one thing she'll never do.

No, what we need to worry about is Hinamori killing Hitsugaya to protect us, and inadvertently making everything worse.

Actually when the time for violence does come, I'm pretty sure we should invite him into the warehouse and then just keep hitting him and never stop.

2. Approach only after he is seated and having ordered. He will of course demand to know what I've done with/too Hinamori and who we are. We say we will tell him...but our goal is Hinamori's continued survival, as well as our own continued survival. Then we tell a story from 20 years ago, without naming names or professions taken. That a Quincy with a Hollow bound inside her and a Shinigami fell in love...and go from there.

>They blend in more with low-powered Bleach.
Oh agreed, thing is I like low powered NpBleach within its appropriate context and thought it would be fun to see Ichigo working and living on the level of mere mortals for awhile. Start carving a new life out, see Chad actually be a badass because he's only fighting up two power levels instead of five, and then get dragged back into the god- mode game. Instead...
>>
>Comfort her
>any stories?

You put your arm around her to reassure her, careful not to make it too intimate.

"Don't worry about it. Maybe something bad might happen, but we have this fantastic base to hide in thanks to you, and I have a back-up plan in case this fails anyway."

You pause.

"…Which is assuming we wouldn't be able to talk him down."

Momo gives you a weak smile. “Thank you Ichigo.”

You shake your head. “No problem. Maybe we should get our minds of off everything? Maybe you could tell me a story or two to unwind?”

Momo pauses and considers it for a minute before shaking her head. “I can’t think of any stories I’d like to tell. Most of them involve my friends, and when I think of them I remember that I can’t really consider them my friends anymore because of…”

She gestures towards her face weakly before letting out a sigh and closing her eyes. A moment later she reopens them, looking at you.

“What do you want to do Ichigo?”

>>25924307
Shit, we're boring aren't we?

...Maybe ask her what she thought of high school?

Like we don't know yet that the Soul Society is pretty much medieval Japan.
>>
>>25924307
We should get some video games or a tv and some movies in here.
Maybe get Keigo to bring Bad Shield and Bad Shield 2.
yes I can remember what Keigo's favorite movies are. Yes I am ashamed.

But for now, maybe Momo should go over the basics of kido-explanations, exposition, just so that when we DO start learning, we'll be knowledgable enough.
>>
>>25924307

"Well, aside from finding a way off Soul Society's shit list...I guess sort my feelings out. I've spent most of the last week learning about how I'm on the edge and now smack in the middle of a century long conflict...and what is weighing heaviest on my mind is having 2 women expressing really intense romantic interest in me when I have no idea how to deal with those feelings. I just got over a really long guilt trip and realized I deserved to try and find happiness...but everything has gotten so complicated so fast."
>>
>>25924510
What time is it right now?

Did Hinamori and us fight all day?
>>
>>25924475
Thats why we have our captain dad and our powerhouse buddies waiting in ambush, I'm sure there is someway we can drag Urahara into our fight.
>>
>>25924508
TIG OLD CAT BITTIES and awkward ass hips

>>25924519
Ya we need to smalltalk or something

>>25924510
Is it still snowing? Can non spiritually aware people sense the temperature change/ see the snow?
>>
>>25924530
Evening was what you saw when Ishida left.

Basically.
>>
>>25924529
Dude do you not realize who we're talking too?

We're never bringing up our romantic interests around Hinamori until she makes a complete recovery.
>>
>>25924333

And he won't know we'll have Seele Schneider. Watch as we BREAK THESE CUFFS WITH LASER CHAINSAW
>>
>>25924552
You did not see snow outside when Ishida left
>>
>>25924552
>Is it still snowing? Can non spiritually aware people sense the temperature change/ see the snow?

I imagine Ishida would be able to tell us the answer to that.
>>
>>25924471
Mizuiro as Michael.

Ok, if I'm that sloppy it's time to call it a night. Best of lunch guys and Cosgrove, thank you for running this despite the frustrations.
>>
>>25924576
...You just made that plan even worse.
>>
>>25924354
That is why Fifi (Momo as Fi) is off with Sad (Sam/dad) planting bombs/counter kido
>>
>>25924577
So he's still creeping around... but not in the immediate area.
Good news there.

>>25924307
This warehouse has an office room. Lets check it out.
>>
We should learn to harness spirit particles at least. We could even use them with our zanpaktou to make it have sword of a buzz-saw mode against hollows.

We're still purifying them, just with a layer of spirit particle vibration.
>>
>>25924411
Look, it is a good idea.
He's pretty Lawful Good, but will falter when we can get some sort of proof about Momo being ok, something only the two of them would know.
He would likely try to drag her back to protect her if he meets her, until he's been properly vetted about it.

He might not try the whole stoncold stunner spell, when he sees a Quincy. It's a pretty dangerous political area, and a Captain would be smart enough to not try some sort of incident.
>>
>>25924599
Which brings it back to
>Hitsugaya is actually pretty smart, he has no reason to respect what is obviously an ambush

I'm afraid that we can't escape shounen conventions here.

The only way we can reach an understanding is through violence.
>>
>>25924366

Someone tells me they like me at least once a thread. My crowning achievement is the logic behind how Honsho could be a full blood quincy and half sibling to both Ishida and Ichigo as a result of MYSTERY BOX
>>
>>25924520
You know what I like this plan...
>>
>>25924307
Check out office.

See if there's anything entertaining around the warehouse.
>>
>>25924608
>This warehouse has an office room. Lets check it out.

Might as well if we haven't already.

Should probably take our mother's stuff and move it there as well (taking care not to touch the Quincy tools), to keep them out of the way.
>>
>>25924624
Well time and time again it has been proven that stabbing is a quick way to Shiros heart.
we won't even be able to pierce him without our mask though
>>
>>25924520
seconding this, it makes sense and passes the time
>>
>>25924624
No its more like he's Captain Colateral Damage and gives no shits using his one mile of icy death technique in city limits
>>
>>25924307
Maybe ask her how healing works?

Since we took care to learn first aid skills from our dad, it makes sense that we'd want to know ghost medicine as well.
>>
>>25924519
>>25924552
Perhaps Ichigo should get a small talk skill to powerlevel?

I suggest we start going through the diary and similar materials - more drama is more fun!
>>
>>25924536
trick ice midget into shooting at Urahara's shop
>>
>>25924536
>I'm sure there is someway we can drag Urahara into our fight
We take the fight to his shop. But that'll piss him off to no end.
>>
>>25924687
>Lead Shiro to Urahara shop.
>Urahara goes Bankai and kills us both.
>>
>>25924536
Yeah no, we're keeping Hat and Clogs out of this completely.

This is basically exactly what he was talking about when he rescinded our invitation.
>>
>>25924681
So we would have two captains who want to use of for their vendetta keeping us alive and killing our enemies, sounds pretty good to me.
>>
>>25924536
we don't want to drag him into it. He wants us to prove we don't suck, remember?
>>
>>25924703
No, I think he'd keep us alive, for the sole purpose of giving us a SLOW PAINFUL DEATH.
>>
>>25924687
Honestly, deliberately trying to drag the fight *away* from his shop would make him more likely to throw us a bone. Show that we took his issues with our actions to heart.
>>
>>25924681

Nah man, that's cold.

Anyway, the cafe plan works with him believing Hinamori is safe, because it is her kido in the note...maybe we just have her cast a spell of some kind on a letter with the instructions in her handwriting, telling him he will meet with her advocate.
>>
>>25924720
I'm pretty sure Hinamori could do a much better job defending herself than we could.

The only trick is making sure Hitsugaya listens.
>>
>>25924707
Four to Five.
Urahara have two caps on his payroll.
And Pops.

Well actually, if we can mention our dads name and Momos, it's enough enough to surge onwards without thought, or call in for everyone.
EVERYONE.
>>
>>25924624

We could ask Hinamori what she thinks of such a plan, and see what holes she can poke in it with her greater value of experience while we're checking out the office area of the warehouse.
>>
>>25924706
>>25924713
I know. But quite honestly I don't want to do his dirty work for him unless he actually helps us once in a while, most of his training he planned to through us against the SS.

>>25924743
We only know about him and pops we suspect something might be up with his cat though
>>
>>25924747
It's nothing but holes.

Really our best hope is that Hitsugaya just kind of gives up and goes home, since Soul Society has a lousy track record of hunting down fugitives and deserters.
>>
>>25924740

Which the proper settup at the Cafe and a Quincy robe could help do.

Advocate letter inscribed with Kido left on a rooftop. Approach in Quincy trappings. Tell the story. Introduce ourselves as Hinamori's advocate and recount what happened, with names with held to protect the (not quite)innocence of our father...and we drop the bomb on him that our dad was Isshin Shiba. Engetsu has begot our own blade, Zangetsu.

Then we may wind up with a peaceful relocation to private beat down...unless Matsumoto gets the drop on us.
>>
>>25924307
Maybe ask Hinamori if Soul Society is monitoring her right now, and if there's any way to kind of make them stop.
>>
>>25924281

You do realize that we've seen Momo's glove, and we know of mod souls. He can be out of his body faster than we could and have us fucked five ways to sunday.

This is a terrible plan>>25924798
>>
>>25924785

Wait for him to give up? We can't be that passive in all of this, we may be laying low but we just can't.
>>
>>25924798
...A Quincy is literally the worst garb we could wear.

Shinigami hate quincy. For good reason.
>>
>>25924798

I KNOW HOW ABOUT WE SHOW UP WITH OUR MASK ON!!!!

SHINIGAMI LOVE HOLLOWS RIGHT????
>>
>>25924817
Plus we also know of the memory device that Hinamori has.

Hitsugaya can just do whatever he wants and not even give a fuck, because all the bystanders will accept whatever that machine tells them to believe.
>>
>>25924844
on a serious note, we should definately use our mask and blut if he still intends to take Hinamori after our conversation
either he takes both of us with him, or we do our level best to kick his ass
>>
>>25924825

Hitsugaya is smart. Before long he'll stop trying to wait us out and start using Kido to search for any sign of barriers, other kido works, or any spirit pressure at all, hell he might be able to locate complete null zones of pressure.

Conversely, he could be presently sitting quite peacefully in our family kitchen as Isshin has made peaceful contact. Isshin's plan is to see how long he can keep Ichigo in self imposed solitair with the woman who made his son a man...and then Shiro snaps.
>>
Shit, it's just been like a day, and we're already going stir crazy.

Maybe Ichigo should turn in early, since he didn't actually get any sleep, and I'm not sure how restful jinzen is.

>Wait for Ishida.
>small talk/waste time
>check out office

You look at the door. “Let’s wait for Ishida, so he can tell us what’s going on.”

She gives a noise of approval as you and her make small talk, such as what she thinks of your friends.

Momo turns to you and smiles. “Thank you for asking me to be friends with Orihime. She and Chizuru are really nice…”

She looks happier and the two of you continue to make small conversation and play games like Twenty Questions. After a while you let out a sigh. “…I’m pretty boring, aren’t I?”

Momo shakes her head. “No, it’s just hard to find things to do while you’re contained in a room with not much to do.”

You look around before spotting the office. “Let’s see what’s in there, shall we?”

A few minutes later, you’re looking in the office. Inside you see a bucket, mop, and cleaning supplies. The room looks like its been cleaned recently and you see large bundles of white and blue fabric occupying large portions of space.

“…Maybe we should tell Ishida to cool it with the white and blue, huh?”

Momo’s face scrunches up in thought before she nods her head, her face slightly flushed. “Yup. I think you look better in black than you would in white, although…”

She lets out a giggle as her face flushes a little.

You hear the door open and close and exit the office. You see Orihime and Chizuru staining there, covered in large amounts of bags, almost to the bursting point. By their feet you see Yoruichi’s distinctive form.

Orihime smiles and nods at you, waving with a hand holding a large, full duffle bag. “Heeeeey Ichigo, we’re here!”

Chizuru has a bemused look as she closes the door and starts dropping bags.

>Free response
>>
>>25924823
If we lay low for to much longer I bet either the Iceboy will enlist help from the twelveth, Momo's going to crack and head out to save us by turning herself in
>>
>>25924887

We should explore the office of the warehouse, and talk to Hinamori in our seemingly growing paranoia.

....sweet mother of...we've discovered another of Toshiro's sword's powers...Cabin Fever
>>
>>25924889
Hey guys, how's it going on the outside? Yoruichi, you coming in, or just checking up on us?
>>
>>25924877
I don't know, Urahara is a fucking pro when it comes to hiding fugitives.

I mean like 6 captains, and 4 vice captain?

For a hundred years?

You really think no one tried to find such a ridiculous amount of fugitives?
>>
>>25924889
"Tell me you have Tekken."

>She lets out a giggle as her face flushes a little more

>>25924889
HELL YES THE FOODS HERE
>>
>>25924889
Ask them how they & the others have been. Scratch Yoruichi - chin and behind ears.
>>
>>25924889
Well we're kind of a gentleman, so obviously ask if we can help unloading whatever is in all those bags.
>>
>>25924889
"Tell me you have some real food and maybe something that we can kill time with.

"Yoruichi, how goes it out there?"
>>
>>25924889

"What news have you from the wall. Does the siege from the north persist?"

"In all seriousness...we're blind in here...and tell me that I smell what I think I smell"
>>
>>25924970
Not sure if it matches Ichigo's sense of humor, but I like it.
>>
>>25924889
>Scoop up Yoruichi and give 'him' a rubb'n, ears and belly.
More so so they dont accidently cover him in beets by dropping those bags on the floor.

"How about that snow, crazy huh?"
>>
>>25924889
"A cat is fine as food too."
>>
>>25924889

"Hey. Need help with those? Favor for a Favor, we need to have an intervention with Ishida before this place looks like an Apple store."
>>
>>25924889
>[X] Scratch behind fluffy ears

Goddammit, we may have missed out chance for catnip, but we WILL treat Yoruichi like a pretty kitty at some point, AND THAT TIME IS NOW!
>>
>>25925000

>>25924924

God, yes this. Nothing wrong with some white and blue but not the whole place.
>>

>>25924970
>>25924933
Some combination of this, also lets invite them to train a little, cause there is seriously not a lot to do.
>>
>>25925017

We should mention to Yoruichi that we've started getting the finer points of Hoho and are progressing toward Shunpo with Hinamori's help
>>
>>25925017
This has my support

Welcome the arrival of new people, food and conversation with joyous revelry

We need to set ourselves up for the eventual "smokin' hot brown goddess" reveal to be as awkward as humanly possible.

Dude, we are the edge of our wit. Snark is our body and sarcasm is our blood. We will make a joke about petting her pussy when the reveal comes.

I'm actually advocating calm professionalism.

NOBODY will see it coming. Not even us.

>>25925074

Please no.

Can we please do literally ANYTHING else?
>>
>>25925109
I say we should tell him as we are coughing up blood from our supposedly lethal wounds in a mocking way.

>>25925076
Yeah the third book came out in 2000 so we're good on that front.

...I assume that this quest takes place around then, since that's when the manga started right?
>>
>>25925074

Help lay out food stuffs near the tables, near the table full of Quincy artifacts to provoke conversation.

At some point...we need to take Inoue aside and tell her she was on point earlier about Hinamori...but we were able to talk her down from falling on her sword to protect us.

We also need to tell her never think you can throw your life away for me...just don't do it...never even think it, please...
>>
>>25925076
Goddamit we really do have to.
With all the nicknames snowcone has, John snow is one of the better ones.

>>
>>25925155
Eh I feel like that's an invasion of Hinamori's privacy.

Just say that goes for her too. No dying for someone in general.

...Ummm...

His role model is shakespeare. To even BEGIN to understand the shit that man wrote in English, as a non-native speaker, Ichigo is more than prepared to read Game of Thrones.

Dude, one of Ichigo's favorite celebrities is the lead singer for the punk band Social Distortion.

The hard work has already been done on that front.
>>
>>25925254
>>25925267
Okay, I see where I fucked up my phrasing.I'll clear up what I meant.
The first part was about A Storm of Swords, which came out in 2000, but I'm unsure of the date for the Japanese release.
The second part was about Bleach.
>>
Sorry guys I've got to clock out for tonight.
>>
>>25925267
Oh wait, I get it now.

First line was about Storm of Swords, second line was Bleach.
>>
>>25925270

We should at least tell Orihime to never ever think of pulling something self sacrificial for our sake.

Ichigo really wouldn't be able to function if another woman did a heroic burnout for the sake of her love for him.
>>
>>25924889
Check what's in the bags, store them. Ask Yoruichi what he's doing here and ask if there are more Shinigami with Shiro.
>>
>>25925326
We'll do that later.

Now I predict that either Chizuru or Orhime wants to talk to us one-on-one, while the other distracts Hinamori, so there's a 50/50 shot of what social link we're grinding.
>>
And so we wait with bated breath
>>
>>25925326
Yeah, saying that is fine. But that won't really do anything for situations when they have one second to decide on intercepting an attack made for us or letting us get hit and Momo is the only one who could give herself up and maybe stop SS from trying to kill us.
>>
>>25925558
>situations when they have one second to decide on intercepting an attack made for us or letting us get hit

I'm pretty sure in situations like that, Zangetsu's advice (both of them) is "Instead of blocking the guy's attack with your body, cut him down first"
>>
>see what’s up with the outside situation?
>try to pet Yoruichi

You walk up to them, waving. "What news have you from the wall. Does the siege from the north persist?"

You get an odd stare from Chizuru as Orihime looks confused and then contemplative.

"In all seriousness...we're blind in here...what’s going on. Are you guys here with the food Ishida went out for or are you here for another reason?”

You reach down to scratch behind Yoruichi‘s ears, only to feel teeth sink into your hand. A few moments later, clutching your sore hand, you look at Yoruichi angrily, who is looking at his claws meaningfully.

Chizuru shakes her head. “No, we’re not here for that. Urahara thinks it’d be better to condense our groups as to keep us out of view. Yasutora, Asano, Arisawa, and Kojima are with him.”

Her expression softens. “As is your family, Ichigo. Don’t worry.”

You inclune your head towards her. “"Thanks. Need help with those? Favor for a Favor, we need to have an intervention with Ishida before this place looks like an Apple store."

At your words Chizuru blink and looks around before chuckling. “Yeah, I can see what you mean. Go ahead, I could sue the help.”

You pick up some bags as Orihime’s eyes widen. “No! Ichigo, you can’t beat the snow army! They’re only weak to fire spells!”

As you all stare at her, she taps herself on the head with her fist. “Eheheheh. Don’t mind me!”

You shake your head and pick up the rest of the bags before moving them to the area that seems designated as the ‘living area’ of the warehouse.

I meant if we're pinned down/can't move and someone is going to finish us off (with a cero or something). I doubt anything we said before would be remembered during such situations.

Down to brass tacs.

"So...how many black robes have you seen in the sky? How did they cover with sensei for what may be a prolonged absence?"

"Yoruichi-san, I've gotten the basics down for Hoho and am progressing toward Shunpo...especially now that I know what it is and am not just calling it 'Cat Walk'"

Put food down in living area, help sort it. Whilst conversation is going on, inspect one of the Ginko and see if we can get our mom's impression or scent of her spirit energy for future tracking.
>>
>>25925687
I find it amusing just how well he writes her...WELL.
If we ever take an interest in taking over Hueco Mundo, we call the ensuing war the Game of Thrones.

But for now, let's get everything set up properly, and then if nothing else occurs, we ought to get some rest. Ichigo's been training for quite a while, and it's closer to night right now, anyway.

Also the hot chick we don't know is a hot chick currently disguised as a cat.

Also, let's not assume the worst. It could be that he's nudging us towards new heights.

Or he simply decided to hang a 'no girls allowed' sign in front of the Candy shop.

We need to have an escalating prank war with Old Hat and Clogs, especially considering he still has t do the bloody message trick.

Do we focus on Orihime or Chizuru after dinner? And what should we talk about.

We steal his hat?
>>
>>25925810

The Question is when/if Tatsuki's going to find out about this.

Because then we'd have:

>Girl obsessed with us.
>Girl we have/had feelings for all secret like.
>Girl who's apparently in love with us,.
>Insane Lesbian/total bro who likes prior mention.
>Hot chick in guise of cat who shares his humor.
>>
>>25925922

I said prank war, not invite him to murder us in our sleep.

He didn't mean "Get killed", I think.

In stark contrast to everyone else, Tatsuki's Hollow is very mellow.

"They could be up to all sorts of nasty things in there!"

"And? Worried about getting left out?"

"WHAT?!?"

"Just saying, he's cute and we could REALLY use a solid. Especially you."

I think we should ask Yoruichi what made Urahara change his mind from last night.

Considering how little she represses, that actually might fit. Less "JUMP ON HIM AND RAPE HIM!" and more

You all sit down and eat, using the last of the food currently in the cooler.

“So, how is it going outside?”

Chizuru frowns. “Not good. That shinigami’s searching pretty well. We only risk coming here when we know he’s far away. As it is, though, Urahara’s pretty sure that he doesn’t know of the base…”

She chews on her bottom lip. “…There’s no telling if he’ll call in more specialized help. It’ll probably give you a week, tops. That’s Urahara’s estimation until, one way or another, he finds you as things currently stand.”

She shakes her head. “But he’s currently doing something to distract the Shinigami. Hopefully it’ll buy us some time, he says.”

You frown before giving a sigh of acknowledgement. A week, huh?

That’s… not a lot of time.

As you finish up the meal you think of talking to Orihime or Chizuru. Both seem rather unoccupied at the moment, so you could easily talk to one of them in private.

"Orihime...there...there is something I think you need to know about the night I saved you and Tatsuki. I had seen the mark on your leg and felt the hollow's spirit pressure, and was following the two of you from the clinic to get the drop on it...I, I was able to figure out why it was targeting you...and I don't know the scope of what Urahara explained to you about hollows..."

>Orihime

You walk over to Orihime, who is setting up her own ‘area.’ She pauses and looks over at you with a bright smile. “Oh, Ichigo. How are you?”

You give her a weak grin and a shrug. “As well as I can be.”

She nods her head in understanding. “It must be rough, for you and Momo…”

She shakes her head. “I knew things were going to get bad, but I thought we’d have more time.”

She sits down and gestures for you to do likewise. “So, what did you want to talk about?”

>>
>>25926936
inb4 she breaks our nose trying to show us...
>>
>>25926844

.... shit, I was hoping she'd take the lead here.

"Yeah. God, has it seriously been a week since all this started?" Shake head, sigh. "I guess I wanted to know how you were handling this situation. I'm stressed, and Momo's been less than calm herself."

Ask her about her training, and what (if anything) she can do.

If she starts getting a little too heavy with the whole 'in this together' thing, say this: ".... I appreciate that, I really do. But I want you to promise me something. If something starts to happen, if the situation looks hopeless..... If I tell you to cut and run, I want you to do it. Please. I'm hoping we can make this not end terribly, but I know what the worst case scenario is, and it's pretty bleak." Weak smile. "I'd rather it was just me than everybody, you know?"
>>
>>25926844
>about the current situation
her training, what Urahara has her doing if anything..
>>
>>25926975
I should hope our fights with Isshin and our training would allow us to avoid that.
>>
>>25926994

And to clarify, the whole 'too heavy' isn't just a thing we should put out there. Like, only if she starts seriously pushing the idea of being in the thick with us for serious when things go south.
>>
>>25926994

>"I'd rather it was just me than everybody, you know?"

.... Oddly chilling, and could have some interesting ramifications if she reads into the obvious double meanings at all.

I think that's a bit hypocritical considering what we said to Hinamori.

Also pretty sure Momo and our dad are both higher-priority targets.

>current situation
>training

You sit down and shrug. “I figured we could talk. So, how’s your training going?”

Orihime looks proud. “I’ve managed to keep up with what I’ve been asked to do, and I think I’ might have found my special powers.”

You give an interested look before Orihime shakes her head. “I don’t want to talk about them until I’m done. But I should be able to defend myself decently enough if necessary!”

She chops the air in front of her before flushing, embarrassed. “Well, against hollows anyway.”

You let a grim look overtake your face. ".... I appreciate that, I really do. But I want you to promise me something. If something starts to happen, if the situation looks hopeless..... If I tell you to cut and run, I want you to do it. Please. I'm hoping we can make this not end terribly, but I know what the worst case scenario is, and it's pretty bleak."

You let a weak grin cross your face.

"I'd rather it was just me than everybody, you know?"

As you finish your words, you feel /pain/ across your face as you hear the sound of a slap. And then, again, on the other side of your face.

Orihime is staring at you resolutely, tears in her eyes. ”How can you say that? Do you really think it’s okay if you die? What about what your family? How could I look your sisters in the eyes and tell them that I left their brother to die because I didn’t want to die!”

She slaps you, again. “What about the rest of your friends? Do you expect us to just give up and abandon our friend?! Do you think Momo would be happy you died for her?!”

She slaps you again, weaker this time as she can no longer hold back her tears. Her hand falls and grips your collar. “…Do you think so little of me that I’d let the one I love die?”

Her voice is trembling, choked with anger and sorrow. “That sort of answer… is one I’ll defiantly reject.”

You stare down at her trembling, sobbing frame.

Depends on which we think is more plausible: a human transforming into a magical talking cat, or a naturally occurring magical talking cat.

"Yeah, that's more or less the same response I gave Hinamori.

Look, I have no intention of dying anytime soon. I just have even less intention of having anyone die for me.

I'm not saying 'leave if it gets inconvenient', or even 'run if you're scared'. Just 'don't try and deflect any swords with your body', or 'don't decide that you can't live without me'.

If you think you can fight alongside me than fight. If you think you can protect me than you're welcome to try. If I'm captured and you think you can save me, well, I'd do the same for you.

Just don't die for me. Because that's the one thing I won't allow to happen again."

"How."

Such a simple word, but carrying a million emotions Ichigo could barely understand. One moment he was holding a crying Orihime, the next....

He looks 'up' the building to an incredulous Zangetsu. Deep down, he knows that something is wrong.

"HOW?!?"

Then he realizes. He's never seen Old Man Zangetsu visibly express emotion.

"HOW DO YOU FUCK UP SMALLTALK THAT BADLY?!"

Seems he's decided to make up for lost time. "Uh-"

"WHAT THE FUCK MAN?! TALK TO GIRL, NOT THAT HARD."

"But-"

"YOU HAD ONE JOB. ONE. JOB."

"I didn't... I didn't mean for it to come out like that."

"Well I should fucking hope not." The man in front of him says throwing up his arms in exasperation. "She's in love with you. How did you THINK she was gonna respond to your deathwish?"

"..... yeah, I know." The pair let out a long low sigh together. "I really feel bad about that, you know? Maybe if I had just talked to Tatsuki I wouldn't be so afraid of dealing with Ori-"

"Get the fuck off my lawn, heathen."

As the words slowly clicked home, a sharp sudden PUSH catches him off guard and sends him stumbling off the edge of the building, falling back into the waking world with a jolt.

... Alright, THAT was worth the scare.
>>
>>25927733
Never make a man's waifu cry. It does not end well.

also, where'd Improvaizen guy go? I miss his stuff.
>>
>>25927785

..... That was me.

As was the 'Genre Savvy Mayuri' earlier.

If we were on /a/, this thread would just now enter auto-sage.
SUPPORT HIGHER BUMP LIMITS FOR /tg/!
>>
>>25927808
No. /tg/ isn't that fast of board to support such a thing.
>>
>>25927806
...Well.
Now I feel dumb.
I'm sorry. It's two-thirty in the morning for me, and recognizing people is not a priority for my brain, apparently.
You do good, and ought to feel good.

>>25927808
I don't really pay attention to sage and shit like it. what is Tg's autosage?

"Welcome ladies and gentlemen! It seems we've come to our first TAIGA DOJO of the story! I'm your host, Fujimura Taiga, and I'm here to help all the poor lost Shirous who... wait a minute, you aren't Shirou at all! Who are you and how did you get in here?"

"Umm... hi, I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. And, I think Old Man Zangetsu just killed me..."

"Very well Mr Strawberry, though it is highly unusual, it is still my duty to assist those poor lost souls who die before reaching their True Endings. Now, what were the circumstances surrounding your death?"

"Well, I told Orihime that if I was going to die she should abandon me and run, and she freaked out, then Old Man Zan dragged me into the Inner World, yelled at me, and pushed me off a building."

"Of course, now it makes sense why you ended up in the Dojo! You pulled a Shirou! Very well, here is my advice: Don't be a suicidal idiot, stop bringing up painful emotional topics needlessly around Orihime, and trust that your friends are at least smart enough not use their bodies as meat shields to save your sorry ass. CLASS DISMISSED!"

>>25927919

AC-Guy's probably busy with his own shit.

>Zangetsu actually killed Ichigo over his waifu
yep. Sides status: gone.
>>
>>25927579
It happens, life can be tiring, late night quests can be doubly so.

In the flip side, returning this morning to find this made my sides die. One job!
>>
>>25927984
>>25927733
I can't breathe!
A good ending to a shocking session.

Thanks for running, OP.

Allow me to speak the ceremonial words:

BLEACH QUEST XVIIII.5
TO BE CONTINUED.
>>
>>25928746
Wow, my sides.

Ichigo, stahp. What are you doing. No, Stahp.
>>
The meta in this game is almost as glorious as the quest itself.
>>
>>25929034
And that is why we love it. Okay, what if Ichigo fell asleep as he went over to talk with Orihime in the middle of the conversation, dreamed the bit what got his shit slapped, Zangetsu hurling him off the building, and the Taiga Dojo. Then with no proper transition he's in Bleach Notice than wakes up to overhearing Orihime and Hinamori talking?
>>
Since he's gone...

BLEACH QUEST 19.5 POSTPONED/ TO BE CONTINUED (maybe probably)

Cos please, if you read this, start the next thread with Ichigo having fallen asleep for a moment and he wakes up babbling something about a Tiger with a sword yelling at him.
>>
>>25929034
Also, someone should update the archive to preserve continues conversation.

So are we going to end up with 19.75 tomorrow/ later this week you think?

Also start archiving hardcore.
>>
>>25929268
>Also, someone should update the archive to preserve continues conversation.
How does one do that?
>>
>>25929440
I don't rightly know, I'be been bumming around here for years and just bothered looking up the correct way to spoiler text on the image board
>>
>>25929440
read the instructions on the site. it's not hard
use the request interface, it updates the thread
>>
>>25927806
You know, you almost always make for an entertaining read.
>>
Needs more votes, folks.
>>
>>25929800
All of them do.
Although I will say some of the blander updates have now achieved "epic" status quicker than more worthy entries. Also worth noting, the one that was troll archived is the second highest rated entry in the series.

And another thing, I just caught up on last nights update and now I'm going to be stuck with sad Orihime in my head all day.
If we're this shit at small talk, there's no way we'll be able to do any convincing during out pre/mid fight banter with Shota.

also Tatsuki guy, please stop; you have gotten more annoying than the old Rukiafag

If nothing else I am forever thankful for having these things injected into my life. If only the Anime and Manga where closer to Bleach Quest...

Its going to be a long Winter.
>>
>>25930068
Guess we'll just have to chill out until the storm blows over then.
>>
>>25930068
>>25930089
Is this going to be like Evil Precure Quest where the entire meta is just a long list of puns?
Well, in EPQ's case it's music titles, but still.
>>
>>25930068
>>25930089
I really think we need to milk the "final day" for as long as we can to build up dramatic tension. After all, we don't want to give Momo the cold shoulder on her final days, but it would be ice to meet her friend. We just have to remember to keep our cool.
>>
>>25930108
We are at the ail end of this chapters life and the replies are slow... we're just marching towards death now.
Also it's a well known fact that ice guys are always punny.
>>
>>25930113
>>25930134

Though this one might have trouble keeping his cool considering the situation...and condensation. Never forget the condensation.
>>
Hmmm...if we wind up on Sokyoku hill to be executed with the phoenix naginata thing...

What would happen if we Sword-ceptioned it?
>>
>>25930470
You want to mindfuck a god.
...and somehow survive the experience.
There's also the issue of it being unsure what it even IS, cause normally, a Zanpakuto shouldn't be able to do anything of note without a dedicated wielder.
Even assuming it works, I do not think the thing is particularly sane or talkative.
>>25930108
>EPQ
Sigh. So slow~
>>
>>25930551
>
Maybe, if we're on the slab for execution anyway. I don't want to mind fuck it, just talk...ah, I think we're two threads from oblivion. Everyone have a great day, see you at the next one.

inb4 it's a lonely giant that just wants friends.
