Based Cosgrove!

/a/'s bleach threads enjoy this as well, it turns out.

>>26159998
Finish Quincy Utility
Kido rank 1
Remaining into Quincy.

Well first off we should tell him about Masaka's stuff.

>>26160043
seconding just in case Kenny's our first fight

>>26160096
fairly sure he knows already. It's been a week, and he already has the diary, right?

Finish quincy utility

>>26159998
tell him about what has happened since we last saw him. Apparently we are off to invade soul society, so any information would be useful.

>>26159998
Zveihander!

>>26160048
This.

Put the excess into Glorious Two Handed Method. As long as we get it before we run into Kenny we'll be fine.

>>26159998
Get Glorious Two Handed Method

>>26159998
Finish {---------- 1}- Quincy-1500xp -utility
Finish Kido
Put remaining 610 into Quincy- you are currently at 0 out of 2000 for Rank 2

>>26160048
this works, not a fan of the two handed method though

>>26159998
"How did you handle it Dad? how did you carry the weight of everyone's lives when you were a captain?"

>>26160171
This. We can get Two Handed after we might fight Kenpachi and realize the possibilities.

>>26160173
Eh no reason not to get it unless we suddenly gain a use for our offhand... like dual wielding a Quincy bow and a Zanpakuto

>>26159998
>Before we begin, you have twenty minutes to decide on what, if anything, you want to spend your xp on.
Acquire Two-hand Method.
Dump the rest to Quincy utility.

>You Have Control
What happened while Ichigo was gone?
Was Toshiro able to ID Isshin?
Tell him that the new friends were not able to match the statement that Fisher made about Masaki being in Hueco Mundo.

>>26159998
Glorious Two Handed Method, excess in Quincy utility

>>26160195
He got formal training and was used to people dying, we aren't.

>>26159998
Finish the Quincy Utility skill we started and bank the rest for now.

>>26160043
>>26160144
>>26160133
>>26160224
This, especially getting quincy utility. We use that quite a bit.

>>26160068
>/a/'s bleach threads enjoy this as well, it turns out.
There's hope for /a/ yet.

>>26160224
this

>>26160228
which is why we could use some advice

>>26160171
I'll throw my support in for this.

We must learn Glorious Two Handed Method. Then we should probably pick up some excellencies (seriously guys why don't we have any yet) then we should pick up grease flying south administration. Then we continue to learn Solar Hero style.
seriously though guys let's get the two handed method

>>26159998
Start at the beginning. Our fight with Hitsugaya. How we got our ass handed to us at first but managed to kinda-come back, how Honsho sacrificed herself for us but then turned into this monster thing. How we went to Hueco Mundo and met Harribel and the rest, fighting the shark-Hollow and then Harribel herself, meeting Neliel and diplomancing her over to our side, meeting Starrk and Lilynette just before returning to Urahara's shop...

And then the stuff with Chizuru. That's probably the most emotional bit of all this, so I'd like to elaborate a bit on it. First describe the fight and how we managed to win against the Plotrock somehow...

And then go into how we really need advise on how to handle situations like this because Ichigo isn't used to things being this heavy.

"I... I'm not very good at solving problems, dad. Especially serious and emotional ones. All I really know is how to hit things with my sword or my fists until they stop being problems. Ever since this started it's always been simple like that. But... that almost wasn't enough this time. And I honestly don't know how I'd have dealt with this if Chizuru had died. To win the battle but still lose... it's something I just can't wrap my head around. That's not how things should go. I know reality doesn't work like that, but... it should. If she had died... I'd have torn heaven and hell apart to get her back. I'd do the same for all of my friends. How did you used to deal with this back when you were in charge of a lot of people?"

>>26160241
/a/ just got better.
Slightly.

>>26159998
Finish Quincy Utility, the rest into Glorious Two handed method.

"That's the thing...I'm not sure I know where to begin. I, I almost lost one of my friends today, she almost fell to soul suicide...but I was able to use an alternate to Jinzen with Zangetsu's help and stop the process...I'm worried the day will come where I can't protect someone by attacking...where I can win the fight but lose the war. I, I think that Soul Society will be such a fight. I will save Momo...but what then. Is it a life of hiding and fighting? This isn't something to rush into half cocked...but short of Aizen tipping his hand...I'm not sure I can see any of us finding happiness at the end of this fight." Drop head in hands, "This has been Urahara's war for the last 100 years, and your own for twenty...Aizen made it my war for certain the night I met her...now I can't help but think he might have counted on that. You were a captain...how did you cope with that risk and responsibility as a mn and soul reaper?"

I vote for quincy utility, not two handed method.

>>26160224
yes this please

Honestly, we should probably just flip a coin over Quincy/Kido and GTHM. We seem to be split pretty much down the middle, and both are awesome, just in different situations.

I want kido - it's seriously cheap for what it gives us.
After that, we can put the remaining points wherever.

just want to say that thanks to this quest picked up bleach again..which was nice.

thank you cosgrove and tg.

>>26160386
We're about to go on a big training day in which we'll probably earn a lot more XP. I think having the new options open (new quincy technique + the very basics of Kidou) will give us more training options.

>>26160428
but aren't we going to be teachers again? gota learn the Tres some speed-walking

>>26160465
Appachibpicked up Sonido pretty quick

>>26160465
Yoruichi should probably do that because she's, y'know, fucking fast. Nel knows sonido, which is way better than Shunpo.

>>26160465
I think Nel can teach them the Arrancar-specific bits better than we can. They'll only need us when its time to spar.

Glorious Two-Handed gives us more raw killing power, while Kido opens up a new branch of utility...and a lot of those kido spells can be used while wielding a sword. Go for Quincy utility, then put points into Kido.

Tommorow I'm gonna start reading Bleach. I quit right before the end of the fullbring arc, so if anyone would like to warn me about something, it would be appreciated.

>>26160465
You mean with Sonido?
If it's just utility skills like Sonido, maybe we can convince Nel to teach the others.

>>26160428
Pretty much what I'm thinking as well.

More options is always a good thing.

>>26160465
I doubt we'll be teaching the full time. Get them going on the basic and they should be able to take from there for a bit.

>>26160386
Wait, if we do Kido, does that mean (Tessai? Whatever the former captain of the Kido corps name is?) is going to be our teacher? 'Cuz he's the only one qualified around to do it that isn't too damn busy already.

So is it today that we'll be having ice cream with everyone?

>>26160305
So... our... Aunt? Cousin? Is a super bad ass?

>>26160515
You're now picturing popping off Tessai's bitchin' lightning cannon the next time he runs into Ice Boy.
>Yes, I know it's an 80-level spell.

>>26160565
Cousin.

>>26160536
No, that's the day after tomorrow, on our cooldown day and the day before Urahara has the Gate ready.

>Currently getting something, will be back in a minute.

>>26160515
Or that Vizard who was his vice captain. Also he really liked Orihime because he actually understood what her powers did (Vizard vicecaptain not Tessai).

>>26160515
>>26160493

We could get the Quincy Utility and Unlock Kido 1.

And I support Tessai teaching us, he seems to be the most qualified.

>>26160597
Hachigen.

His crossbones hair was weird as fuck

How about a compromise: Get Kido, and dump the rest into Two-Handed Method, with the intention of finishing it up with our training xp.

The Quincy skill is probably their high-speed movement technique, and I doubt its going to be better than our Shunpo right out of the gate.

Oh wow, I just imagined another fun possibility that stems from going down the Kido road.
Remember how when Ichigo first got to SS and Ikkaku asked him who his teacher was? Remember how Ikkaku immediately serioused the fuck up when Urahara got name-dropped?

Now picture Ichigo in a running spell-duel with a shinigami from one of the more kido-oriented divisions, and then drops Tessai's name when he's asked how he's so good at Kido after being a shinigami for like a month. Particularly if the opponent is someone who was alive and kicking a hundred years ago.

>>26160672
Maybe the quincy skill stacks with shunpo?

>>26160608
This.

Kido is useful. More so than the dumbass quincy capsule magic that ine guy shills.

>>26160672
We need to put points in Quincy, dude. We'll be able to fire Ceros from our bow, maybe.

>>26160694
changing vote from utility to >>26160672because of this

First off, Kido. Being useful. My laughing sides.

Finish Quincy Utility and rest into GLORIOUS TWO HANDED METHOD

>>26160694
Holy shit this.

Voting fuckin' kido.

>>26160694
That would be pretty badass. And I imagine Tessai is an interesting teacher, being a muscle wizard, his style of kido should mesh with us best

>>26160573
No, I'm picturing us in that arm binding spell running for our life as Tessai throws lightning, lasers and target seeking whatever the fuck they were at us rapid fire as punishment for sucking at learning from him. (basically, I'm imagining Tessai pretending he's Urahara, maybe even wearing a bucket hat?)

>>26160739
>First off, Kido. Being useful. My laughing sides.
Kido is powered by your reiatsu. Guess what we have a fuckload of?
I'm not saying we should attempt to become a Master Magician. But if we learn basic shit like 'force push' and stuff, we'll be able to overload them to MAX LEVEL.
Also, binding. Because we need some more non-lethal takedowns.

>>26160716
Quincy capsule magic is useful.

I mean, quincy shit is good if we ever lose the ability to do shinigami or vaizard shit. But I think that we need to focus. We just did a lot of hollow shit, so we should do some shinigami shit.

And we got fucking Blut, we have to get something equally awesome for Shinigami before we can go get some other powers from our quincy side.

>>26160739
It's fucking useful. Restraints, binds, nonlethal abilities.

All of which we sorely lack right now.

Just because the manga is shonen and ignores it's usefulness doesn't mean ut'll suck here.

>>26159998

>Finish Quincy Utility. Then go two handed.

It isn't much Xp to get Kido and we need to maximize our current strengths for what we are about to do. Instead of spreading it out more.

>>26159998
Finish Quincy, then 1 level of Kidou, then Glorious Two Handed Method.

>I've got a giant can of mountain dew and a roll of shocktarts, let's do this.

>Looks like there's a good number for Kido, Quincy utility, and GTM. How should we go about this, then?

>>26160743
T:"Now, Mister Ichigo, how is it you wish to use Kido? Do you believe yourself to be a defensive fighter? An Offensive fighter? Or What of long rang-"

I:"Are there any I can use to punch things better?"

T:"...."

I:"...Is that a no?"

T:"...All the kido I have not already instructed you in are of that category."

I:"..."

T:"I invented them."

haha! time for bleach quest!

>>26160762
I dunno, even when jacked up on hogyoku crack aizens high level spells were kinda underwhelming.

>>26160773
capsule magic is shit. limited use with four terrible applications, one of which requires prep time

>>26160810
We will never, ever, ever agree.

It has already devolved into samefagging.

Just pick something out of a hat that is some combination of the three in a relatively non-retarded configuration.

The problem is this. The poem shit = dice roll to remember the poem, say it properly and remember to push power properly. At the least.

>>26160810

That's some hardcore shit there man. Make sure you don't end up in an episode of "Behind the Quest".

I'll support kido and Quincy utility if only for the purpose of more non-lethal takedowns

>>26160825
I like you

>>26160825
Saved forever a hundred times.

>>26160825
Shit that's pretty good man.

>>26160810
Finish the Quincy skill for certain.
Get 1 level of Kidou.
Put the rest into Two Handed.

>>26160825
Fuck yes.

>>26160838
So... we turn into Bruce Campbell reciting from the Necronomicon?

... I am very okay with this.

>>26160810
Kido first, then Quincy utility, followed by everything else put into GTM.

I'm mostly in favor of finishing what we started putting points in. Otherwise those were just wasted.

Muscle Wizard training will probably be very metal.

Though not as fun as learning from Momo later.

Learn from Tessai? Or learn from Momo in a stereotypical sexy teacher costume...bought by Orihime because that is how she now rolls.

>>26160810
roll 1d2 to prevent autosage?

>>26160887
>Try to remember the lightning fingers spell
>Fuck it up
>Whatever, I'll pump it with MAXIMUM SPIRIT PRESSURE anyway

And then Soul Society was lightning.

>>26160810
Most of us only want GTM before we run into kenpachi. I don't have any problem spending what we have on kido/quincy shit as long as we get the skill before we face kenny.

>>26160919
We can learn the basics of it now, and Momo can teach us more advanced stuff.

>>26160919
What is that, a picture for Hank Pym?

>>26160838
Maybe. On the other hand, how much do you bet that one of the supplementary skills makes casting a guaranteed success, assuming we're not interrupted?

>>26160739
Check what Kido can do - and it's all powered by reiatsu, the thing we've got a shitload of.
Also, we'll be one of the few kido users in our group...that alone is worth quite a bit.

>>26160838
You don't need the incantation.

Even Captain Jobber Renji can do low-30s kido incantationless. Badly, but he can do it.

>>26160887
>We roll to use powers to force pull Momo over to us
>1
>We rip her torso off

Kido is useless, two handed STRONK

Did lastnights thread get archived?

>>26160919
I want to go with Tessai. If only because it'd be metal.

>>26160927
>>26160913

"Damnit, Ichigo! You have to say the whole thing! THE WHOLE THING!"

"It's like a freaking paragraph! I don't have the time to do an oral report to force lighting someone!"

>>26160919
We can learn the basics now, and the "advanced techniques" from Momo later.

Also, that arm binding technique might make our bedroom antics much more manageable and less traumatizing for us.

>>26160959
I always took it not as he had the power to do it, but he could chant it in his head. Which is useless with the very full up headspace we got.

>>26160965
>We need to pull Momo over to us.
>We have no way to do that.
>Momo dies.
>Wish we'd had more utility skills, rather than another way to attack.

>>26160965
Now you're just being facetious. Stop it.

Lets just finish quincy then two handed.

I refuse. Cos is circling us, waiting for a chance to go full Urobutcher. WE CAN'T GIVE HIM A CHANCE! Vote against Kido in Prop 69!

>>26160996
Wrong. The incantation isn't necessary at all, it merely helps properly focus the mind into the state needed for the specific kido.

>>26161023
That's basically it, yes.

And for soells with a persistent effect you can do the incantation after casting to reinforce and enhance them.

Actually that's something they said about shinimami...

>>26161166
Unfortunately, like in canon, the method that Urahara uses is not conducive to that. As it turns physical bodies into spiritual bodies, you'd either be fully trapped in your human body or something terrible would happen as you have a distinctive spiritual body with its own unique powers.

>>26161515
We asked to know what Gin's up to...
Response via Twitter:

For the Question on Gin...

He is playing the long game by taking actions that make him look suspicious TO all parties to KEEP all parties from being TOO suspicious of him. He saw an opportunity to give him an opening and went for it.

>Cosgrove by week 10.

>>26161564
>Implying Cosgrove doesn't like meat too much to ever get married

>>26161578
Wasn't Gin's main thing that he acted suspicious to draw people's attention from Aizen?

>>26161599
while giving subtle hints as to who Aizen was.

He DID tell Hitsugaya not to let Momo near any "bad guys", and what happens when she meets Aizen again?

>>26161599
Yeah by doing that it also kept aizen from watching him too closely.

>>26161599
Seemed that way, this time it looks like he's trying to draw EVERYONE'S attention to himself by acting super shady.
He might have a different angle or motive here than in canon.

>>26161594
I don't even know what you're implying

>>26161650
It's a joke Cosgrove made in a previous thread.

>>26161625
Huh.
Any more examples?

>>26161663
... and a Freakazoid joke before that.

>>26161594
He could've gotten married AND still be eating lots of meat.

>>26161667
The "I could save you right now" thing could be considered a hint I guess. The way he kind of cared about his lieutenant too.

>>26161684
Yeah, I knew it was a reference to something, just not what. That was that thing where he got a meat dehydrator right?

>>26161667
It was mostly in his little quips and interactions with other captains and important characters.

Looking back, you can see he knows it's nearly time, and he wants to do SOMETHING, but he knows he can't, or else he won't be able to kill Aizen.
So he doesn't save Rukia.
He doesn't save Momo.
He doesn't even say anything to Rangiku until the last moment, where it'd look normal for him to say something at the very least.

>>26161725
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3Z9cjKkqn4

>>26161738
Doesn't he offer to let his Lieutenant come with him? Man, looking back you can see how he actually was a good guy.

>>26161758
Huh, don't even remember what episode that is.

>>26161805
Yeah, but the deception was too good, and Izuru Kira declined. He was messed up for a while after that.
And THAT, Ms. Rowling, is how you should have written Severus Snape.

>>26161851
well, she should also have taken motes on creating a consistent magic system from kubo as well

>>26161851
>he was messed up for a while after that
All the traitor's lieutenants were. Momo is obvious, Tousen's was pretty much always a repressed murder machine, and Kira pretty much spent an entire battle preaching the philosophy he thought Gin betrayed when he killed that Arrancar.

>>26161851
Man Izuru's sword is horrendously broken already I would hate to see his Bankai.
it would be the center of attraction

>>26161738
Saying all that.
Sounds like The Boss to me.

>>26161805
Yes, but he wants Izuru to turn him down-he knows he'll get murdered by Aizen or by the arrancar eventually, not to mention SS.

>>26161918
Shuuhei needed to come to terms with his repressed self, and he ended up doing that a little more because of Tosen- Tosen's death, however, fucked him right back up.

>What’s happening and ask for advice.

You close your eyes and let out a sigh. “…I’ll start from the beginning. From when we parted ways last week.”

You explain the encounter with Hitsugaya, how you almost matched him until he made use of his bankai, of how the battle then turned against you… Of how Chizuru sacrificed herself for you, of her new form, and its terrifying aura and how you finally subdued Hitsugaya before trying to defuse the situation with Chizuru.

Of Hueco Mundo and your meeting with the hollows. Your fight with the Hammerhead Arrancer. How you befriended Harribel and the Tres and fought Harribel for dominance, loving every last second of combat. How Chizuru woke up and you talked with her before meeting with the Arrancar Neliel, and of how you persuaded her to your side. Of Starrk and Lilynette, who only wanted friends.

And, when you got back, of the Arrancar’s reactions to human life, of training them… of the situation with Chizuru…

Her Soul Suicide’s beginning, of how you used a power you didn’t know what it was to reach down in and save her. Of the Hogyoku and its terrible form, of what it did to Chizuru and how the two of you finally stopped it, once and for all.

And of how you broke down when you had thought she’d died.

“…I'm not very good at solving problems, dad. Especially serious and emotional ones. All I really know is how to hit things with my sword or my fists until they stop being problems. Ever since this started it's always been simple like that. But... that almost wasn't enough this time. And I honestly don't know how I'd have dealt with this if Chizuru had died….”

You close your eyes and take a deep breath, trying to keep control of your emotions.

“…I’m worried that the day will come when I /can’t/ protect somebody through fighting, where I can win the battle but lose the war. I…I’m afraid Soul Society will be like that. I’ll save Momo… but what then?”

(1/3)

>>26162078
Kira was the one preaching. And we never really got a look at Gin as a captain. Tousen was nothing but a hippocritical bastard.

>>26162113
You stare at your father. “A life of fighting and hiding? But, short of Aizen being revealed for what he is, I can’t see any happy ending for this. You and Urahara have been dealing with this for a lot longer than I have, but I almost think my involvement was only part of Aizen’s plan. I’m afraid I’m only going to fall nito a trap or mess up and lose someone. You were a captain...how did you cope with that risk and responsibility as a man and soul reaper?"

Your father closes his eyes and lets out a sigh. “You don’t ask the easy questions, Ichigo. Honestly, I don’t deal with loss well, I don’t think anybody can, really. All you can do is keep moving forward and try to do better next time.”

Isshin rubs at his face tiredly. “And I know that sounds like terrible advice, but that’s the truth of it. You keep moving forward or you stop and let yourself be drowned by the sorrows of the past. And you’re smarter than you used to be Ichigo, more wise. You weren’t going in on this half-cocked, you’re thinking of the consequences for yourself and those you care about. You’re on the road to becoming a good man.”

He picks up the diary and turns to a dog-eared page. “All I can say is that maybe your mother had it right. It’s good to think ahead, but don’t let your worries tie you down.”

He hands the diary to you and your read the familiar page.

-“I confronted Ryuuken when he tried to stop me. While I respect him and like how he thinks about things before acting. However he and I are different. To me, "caring about myself" means to do everything in my power, every day. If today I don't do what I can because of some custom and someone dies because of it, I won't be able to forgive myself tomorrow.

-“I live my life by those words and I don’t think I’ll ever regret them.”


Holding the diary in your hands, you stare at your father, his face with a somber and wistful smile as he watches you.

“Honestly, while you could plan out your life for every ’what if’ you can think of, I don’t think you’d be happy living like that. And don’t doubt yourself, I’m sure when the time comes you’ll do nothing less than your best. You’re your mother’s son and you inherited her heart Ichigo. You should never be ashamed of that. “

>You have control

>>26162143
Tousen seemed on the level with his stupid idea of justice, what with Aizen holding him in moral checkmate, then he lost his shit on hollow crack.

>>26162143
The hypocrisy was incidental. Tousen's problem was that he believed he was just, therefore any path he chose was the righteous one.

>>26162143
Kira was more or less just talking about what the squad symbol ment and how much he hated the idea of war. We don't know anyone else from Squad 3, so we have no idea if he was alone in that philosophy or not.
That said near the end, Gin seemed relatively remorseful near the end.

>>26162159
Did-did you just give actual advice?

>>26162159
We have the best dad.

>>26162159
Ask him to drop by Urahara's at some point to advise our planning. He was a Captain after all, he probably has some tidbits regarding Soul Society that might come in useful.

Then, horrifying realization of the implications of what he said to Harribel, how she probably understood none of it, and how she's probably asking Orihime to explain it to her RIGHT NOW.

>>26162159
"Thanks. Now, could you tell me a bit about the people you knew is soul society that I might be running into? Also, any advice on how to get under Hitsugaya's skin?"

>>26162159
Damn, Isshin is awesome. We owe him a manly hug or at least a handshake for being awesome.

Now we should ask for advice about going into soul society.

>>26162159
First, a pregnant pause.
Then: "Momo needs our help. And it's not just her, either. Everyone Aizen has hurt, including us. Everyone he's going to hurt. Now that I know the truth, I don't think I could live with myself either if I didn't try to stop him.
So. We're going to Soul Society. We're saving Momo. We're stopping Aizen. Possibly not in that order.
You in?"

>>26162231
Reword it a bit, but yes, we need to ask about whatever info he can give us.

>>26162159
MANLY FAMILY HUG

>>26162159
"Thanks dad, your right. Sometimes you just need to hear it to remember it again. I've got some things to plan with my friends if we're going to get momo back."

Head upstairs and join the powwow with the ladies.

Let it go ichi, let it go...

>>26162209
Its true...its true.

>>26162231
This, any info he can give on what we might run into would be supremely helpful, especially if he knows what the other captains bankai are like. We don't want a repeat of the encounter with the Ice midget.

>>26162242
I doubt he's going. He's got our sisters to look after.
We can grill him for intel, though.

Is anyone else worried about Karin waking up and going to get a glass of water, only to run into and somehow get into an argument with Appachi?

I can't tell if it would end terribly or hilariously.

>>26162231

As the snow-boy's previous captain (that is correct, right?)
he should be in a good position to do this.

>>26162275
Yeah, I'd much rather have him stay at home and protect Yuzu and Karin.

>>26162275
It'd be rude to not invite him. Principle of the thing, you know.

>... ...
>Hey dad? Thanks.
>... I know it's sudden, but Urahara's opening up a gate to the Soul Society in three days. Do you think there's anything you could share with us about its layout, politics, captains? Any useful information? I know it'll probably be dated, but it should at least be more recent than anything Urahara has on file.

>>26162159
"Thanks, dad.
"Since I'm going to Soul Society, anyone I should be on the lookout for? Whether they can help me, or I can avoid?"

>>26162305
Not really, no.
It'd be rude if it was a BBQ, not a rescue mission to a place he's deserted from.

>>26162159
Ask him if he would mind coming in tomorrow and giving just a brief synopsis of the captains and lieutenants he remembers?

Like names, descriptions, maybe a fact or too about their personality if he has any recollection?

It's probably not a good idea to go in blind, and he should have more up-to-date information than Urahara right?

>>26162301
There is this, unless we want to leave our family and the in the hands of the last talented Quincy who wants nothing to do with the world of the dead.

>>26162159
We thank him for the advice, of course.

Now, I'm split between discussing two topics. Should we continue to be serious, or change the mood to something lighthearted?

>Serious:
Discuss in detail the info from Harribel and company about the lack of Masaki's presence in Hueco Mundo.
Also whether Toshirou got a good look at Isshin and ask what are the odds of him reporting it to Soul Society.
>Lighthearted:
Clearing up possible misunderstandings when Isshin saw Ichigo in the company of multiple women.

I'm gonna go for the serious option.

>>26162021
...I like it.

funny thing: Gin and this song being associated was how I stumbled upon my favorite band. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39p-TtEchoc

Still trying to come up with a good layout for the Gin daydream drawing, as well.

>>26162159
"So I'm just going to assume that there is no context in the soul society where it would be a good idea to acknowledge that I'm your son.

...You know, like in this world, most of the time."

>>26162231
This, then
>>26162230

>>26162334
No we have Harrebel stay and protect them since they're bound to us, they're bound to our family by extension.

We have Stary and Lilly play guarddog to our base of operations in the Soul Society.

As for Nel? Not sure what we can do to write her off yet.

>>26161022

that is pretty awesome man.

you should feel awesome dude.

>>26162341
Eh, save serious for later.

I think it'd be prudent to ask Neliel.

Because I just remembered that in canon we saw where Grand Fisher went right after Ichigo beat him up.

We saw where that hollow's 'base' was.

>>26162387
They've already said they're coming whether we like it or not.

We aren't going to be able to just ditch them. Nor do I want to.

>>26162387
I thought we were still planning on taking them to the SS to run train on them with a suprise raid.

>>26162378
oh, oh, this.
We need to say this, as well.

>>26162387
not happening. She goes where we go-
and we're heading into certain doom.
As one anon said a couple threads ago, as equals, we protect eachother- she views it as her right to protect us just as we would her.

No fucking way she'd let us go into SS without her.

>>26162021
Alternatively:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiQNkLmD94U
Also usable when things go tits up and we fail all our rolls and the bodies pile up.
Alternitivly alternatively Gin's flashback of his like on his deathbed.

>>26162330
Seconded. Going into Soul Society knowing who's what and capable of where would be a good idea.

some one should archive this now btw, before the archive troll wakes up and see this.

>>26162378
Please include this Cos.

>>26162378
The sooner we know about our cousins, the better, I'd say.

Also, I'm pretty sure Kaien was still alive when Isshin deserted, wasn't he?

Wonder if Rukia and him had a talk with that.

>>26162378
I like this, it should be added in some where.

>>26162159

This might be a good time for Ichigo to finally recognize that beneath all the wacky antics and random violence, >>26162209 is the truth.

Thank him, for everything.

only if we use this

Question for those of you interested in a Harribel sexytimes scene.
1) What colors do you want associated with her? I am polling for word choice on skin color.
2) what outfit do you want her to have? I was going to go with her in royal purple underwear. For face covering, a short, slightly diaphanous head veil a la belly dancers of similar color, with gold emboss. In the corner would be a tiny quincy cross as an in joke.
3) third person, second person, 1st person?

>>26162435

What we need now is a Chizuru theme, I mean we already have enough good Aizen ones what with Cos's new take on him, and Gin seems to have stayed the same.

>>26162434
If we take Nel to Soul Society with us one of two things will happen. One, Aizen kills her. Two, she betrays us/falls under a spell of hypnosis and then betrays us.

For what it's worth, my money's on the first option.

1. Please nothing involving chocolate or any type of food. Please. Just get a thesaurus and look up "brown"
2. Something inspired by Spain. Maybe start out in a flamenco dress?
3. 1st person Harribel's POV

>>26162539
Technically Neliel's a pacifist, so she can stay here.

>>26162537
No apparently when Kubo makes characters he listens to punk rock and bases them off whatever song he thought was cool at the time.

Kinda like how Aizen ended up evil and not dead in the SS arc

I'd second this. Use "Detergent Quest" for recaps and Omakes (if we ever have a peaceful thread - unlikely I know) but keep "Bleach Quest" for the mainline. At least, that would make my life easier since I generally end up reading the second half of any given thread from the archive.

>>26162769
I think you meant "the louder one" but I agree that would be more amusing.

You stare at your father, feeling like a kid again.

“…Dad? Thanks, for that. I think I needed to hear that.”

He nods, wrapping you in a hug for a brief moment. “Anytime son. Anything else?”

You think about it and give him a nod.

“... I know it's sudden, but Urahara's opening up a gate to the Soul Society in three days. Do you think there's anything you could share with us about its layout, politics, captains? Any useful information? I know it'll probably be dated, but it should at least be more recent than anything Urahara has on file.”

Isshin looks upwards with quiet hum before giving a sharp nod. “I’m not busy tomorrow, so I should be able to take some time off from the clinic to do that.”

You thinks some more before a wicked idea comes through. “I don’t like the guy, but in case we run into him, do you have any advice for getting under Hitsugaya’s skin?”

Your father gives a devious smirk. “And there’s my blood coming through! Yeah, treat him like a kid, mention his height and any number of things that look down on him, especially addressing him with a nickname. He was always so easy to rile up. But, I do hope, for your sake, you don’t meet him again.”

You grimace, remembering the fight. “Hey, we could always use some help, if you want?”

Your father shakes his head. “I have a life here that people depend on now. And I need to be here to protect your sisters.”

Remembering Yuzu and Karin, of how they’re practically defenseless… You give him a sharp nod before smirking.

"So I'm just going to assume that there is no context in the soul society where it would be a good idea to acknowledge that I'm your son.

...You know, like in this world, most of the time."

Issihn’s eyes tear up as he sobs for a few moments before he calms down. “…Maybe. Not sure what old Kuukaku is up to, but I wasn’t the last of the Shibas. She might be willing to take you in so long as they aren’t hunting you, but that really depends on being able to find her, she likes to move around. I’ll give you a note to take with you just in case. However, more importantly…”

An ominous, evil aur settles on the area. “…Shouldn’t you be worried about what’s happening up in your room?”
