Alright we gotta get a hold on all of these soul wives, for our metaphysical well being

>>4492142
>>Skip back to returning home and confronting your soul summons
I think my first instinct would normally be "go to Kisuke" but at this point pulling out another soulfriend is pretty standard for Haruto, not really that big a deal. Soul king piece stuff is pretty important, but it'll give us time to chew on that thought.

After participating in stereotypical slapstick from Tatsuki and sharing a moment with Orihime and Rukia you took to returning back home. Normally with running into yet another experimental hollow you should look into paying your boss Kisuke a visit. Between that, there were some other things that were worth letting him know as soon as possible. Such as the sudden increase of spiritual power and energy in your friends, especially the girls who shared powers with you/or been imprinted with your power. But most importantly there was both the manifestation of Cadence. As well as the mention of a soul king piece currently residing inside of you.

From Cadence, you knew that she was representative of the Fullbring powers shared with Riruka. At the same time said fullbring came from the centerfold of your own soul king piece, the gullet of the soul king. Hearing this made you began to second guess the nature of Fullbring as it was different from the story Riruka told you. You didn’t doubt Cadence’s words since despite being an amalgamation of the blanks inside, including the essence of Yumiko Shirosaki, she was still created from your own soul composition and power. Though, you can’t help but wonder if the other soul summons shares a similar makeup of amalgamation.

Thinking about all the ramifications and hypotheses that came from your discovery left you feeling woozy. Thus you ultimately gave up thinking about it and put a pin in them for the time being. Whatever the embodiments of your powers came from or their true nature pales in comparison to the bigger picture. That being that they are sentient and their own people. It left you in a unique position since they are apart of you but you didn’t see them as tools or pets. If anything you treated them like real people, furthering the bonds between them and you. When you look at it like that it’s no wonder why they managed to corporealize and partake in living in the physical world at the first chance.

Once again, when you look at it like that it was enough to sedate your concerns, returning you to a state of contentment. Remembering the motto “Everything will work out” you chose to not dig any deeper. At least not for tonight. Kisuke wasn’t exactly going anywhere and you could wait to bring up these concerns for the impending meeting next month. Right now you set your sights to return back home with your new companion. Carrying Cadence like a princess you resort to using Flucht. Faintly shades of emerald green spiritual particles spread from the air currents as you traveled. It was different than the usual cerulean blue reishi present from your bount powers.

Strangely under the green reishi, you find your performance jumping to a new plateau. The smooth flowmotion present in your flying became even crisper and fluid as you took high into the sky. Chances are this strange phenomenon and the familiar sensation was coming from Cadence. Mostly due to the fact that traces of green reishi was reverberating from her. Nevertheless, you silently gave her a head pat, earning approval from the lax lass. In no time at all you find yourself reaching your house, almost overshooting it from the boosts. With a silent drop to the window, you aim to open the window. Only for it to suddenly pull itself up before you had the chance.

Standing on the other side of the window was your primary spirit Nahtigalou, arms rest on her wide hips. Currently clad in just a bath towel, the blue-haired cool beauty gave you an ice-cold smile. “Welcome home, Haruto. How was your trip?”

“It was rather eventful. But not to worry, the girls are safe and some much-needed baggage was taken care of.” You lightly smile, sweating just a tad as you stepped through the window inside. Afterward, you turned to help Cadence entering before she could transmute your house to open a path for herself.

“See, I told you that Haruto was fine. No need to get your feathers ruffled up Haruka.” Jammerwoch chimes, also wearing nothing but a towel as she drinks her strawberry milk cheerfully. Unlike the blue-haired woman, Jabba has her towel covering her ample chest like a scarf. Crossing her legs to cover her lower half with the added support of her thick dragon tail and long pink hair for convenient censorship.

“Leave it to you to not care about the bigger picture here, Ryuuko.” Nighty curtly lectures, keeping her eyes locked at the night sky. Jabba found herself shivering from her colleague’s cold shoulder and no-nonsense attitude.

“That’s right! He left without telling us beforehand.” Shijinjū Tenkō cries, marching out from the shower after finishing cleaning Hoyozuki’s hair. Being the more dignified of the four, Tenko was using two towels, one to bundle up her black hair in one giant bun, and the other to cover her up properly. “Not only that, Sir Haruto brought upon him another soul from within.” Tenko points out, almost hissing like a cat at Cadence’s appearance.

“Seriously it’s already crowded enough as it is.” The princess remark, almost slamming her foot in a huff.

“I dunno Yoruaka, I wouldn’t exactly be throwing a fit over it.” Jabba casually smiles, offering to give some milk to Tenko. Causing the himedere to blush and turn her head, suppressing her cat-like instincts since she was entranced by the milk.

“And what are you implying.” Tenko glares, folding her arms underneath her chest.

>>4495293

“Well, if you didn’t intercept Riruka and kept her from invading our home, she wouldn’t have been exposed to Hoyozuki and the other forces residing in Haru’s soul. Setting up to Cadence’s creation. So remind me again, was it not you who said not to fret and leave the matter of Riruka to yours truly?” Jabba muses, lightly giving a more serious expression underneath her carefree and bubbly appearance.

“Hmph! I caught her before she could get herself in any further trouble. Besides, underlings shouldn’t be talking like a big shot since it’s their responsibility to make sure such minor inconveniences don’t come into fruition.” Tenko scoffs.

“Enough!” Before any of the girls could butt heads, Nahtigalou raises her wings, emitting a powerful yet faint spiritual pressure across the room. Dimming the lights as everything becomes cold and black, giving a blackened void-like space ambiance. “All of you are missing the point.”

Backing from the subtle yet stone-cold animosity coming from Nighty, Tenko immediately hides underneath the couch where Jabba was sitting on. Leaving the second oldest of the four girls to speak up for everyone. “And what is that point?”

“Haruto left us. Even if he was only doing reconnaissance and committing to supporting Orihime and the others, it was a foolish thing to do. Need I remind you that we’re the embodiment of his powers. Both his natural powers and the acclimated ones shared/taken by the bonds he has with others. If we’re all here then Haruto can’t tap into his full capabilities and unleash his full power. Regardless of whom he chooses to have accompanied him, it still should’ve been at least one of us. It’s our duty as the sources of Haruto’s power to protect him. Nighty explains, walking over to the window and staring with somber eyes.

“...She isn’t wrong,” Jabba remarks, sipping her drink while avoiding making eye contact with Haruto. “Safeguarding Hoyozuki is also important, but don’t forget that she’s a mod soul. Her original form as the Hogyaku is still inside Haruto.”

“That’s right! You shouldn’t be acting so carelessly. Who knows what or who could have shown up and attacked you.” Tenko yells, sticking her head out of the couch to impose her will while keeping herself safe from Nahtigalou’s wraith. Meanwhile, the comic relief Jabba continued having to be the middle ground between the two.

“It’s almost like you don’t trust us…” Tenko bluntly blurs out. A sentiment that neither Jabba nor Nahtigalou could refute since they also shared similar sentiments. The mood of the room was becoming remarkably heavy.

>>Apologize for being inconsistent and promising to be more attentive in communicating with them before acting on a whim
Thinking back, it really was a weird choice. I pretty much only picked the option cause it was the one that involved actually leaving ourselves but I probably should've just written in to go with our spirit squad. In-universe I suppose it could be chalked up to Haruto just wanting them to have some fun times like he said, and he's just a bit too overly focused on letting people be at ease. Shit, thinking about it, it'd be pretty similar to Ichigo and his savior complex.

Also, while we're a weakpoint for Hoyo because of the Hogyoku inside us, the others would also die if we died, right? They're connected to our soul after all. So we not only put Hoyo at risk but the whole group. Time for a full-blown dogeza. Probably not the best idea to go alone from now on, even if it's just a lower-tier Hollow like Acidwire. We at least vaguely know that there's a bigger threat out there that's just waiting for us to fuck up.

It depends, normally like with a zanpakuto when its owner dies the spirit goes with them. This is the same for dolls and other conjurations. But a strong enough soul or outside means like the bankai stealing medalling can anchor themselves to the physical plane and maintain their existence. Of course, such methods are finite and will sooner or later end with their death. At least depending on the soul and the method.

Post coming later today. Sorry for the delay. I have been trying to get back into daily posting in spite of complications.

The mood of the room manages to reach an all-time after Tenko blurted out what was on her mind. Normally such bluntness would get her reprimanded by Nighty over her lack of tact. Or even some light ripping from Jabba over Tenko as the pink-haired woman puts it “putting her foot in her mouth”. Yet neither of them was willing to chastise or even comment over the black-haired catgirl. Such silence like that was typically a sign that one has really botched things up. And being someone who was remarked for being able to read the mood and ambiance, you knew that was to be the case.

Cadence meanwhile looks at everyone’s curiosity before turning to you. “We can’t help but agree with the girls here. Even though due to your actions we miraculously came into existence as we are now. We can’t help but wonder why would you embark on traveling without the assistance of one of your companions?”

Looking back at Cadence, you bashfully smile with a light laugh. “Because I wanted to check it out by myself. It wasn’t particularly a strong presence. Something that the girls could’ve handled on their own. By accounts, they wouldn’t need my help, and everyone here was already sharing a moment during bath time. It didn’t seem all that necessary to trouble any of you guys with my weird hunch.” You explain, rubbing the back of your head. Sincere and thoughtful as it was, it ultimately ended up getting some disappointing looks from the rest of the girls.

“Hmm, a rather kind and thoughtful master.” Cadence ponders, listening closely to your explanation before turning back to the girls. “But from what we can tell...that thoughtfulness is rather shortsighted.”

“You know we just met this girl...and I can’t help but find myself liking the cut of her jib.” Jammerwoch smiles, folding her arms behind her back, crossing her legs as she gets back to being chill and loose. Earning an awning look from Cadence, a lowered stare from Tenko, and a reluctant sigh from Nahtigalou as she shakes her head.

Reflecting deeply on your actions and understanding the full gravity, you make your attention on Hoyozuki who was still inside the bathroom taking a long bath. Yet she could hear everything from the other side of the door. “Don’t you have anything to say?”

Tilting her head towards you for a sec the silvery white-haired woman turns her eyes towards her reflection of the water. “I can’t really say. Even when I’m like this in my own body, my core body, the original me still resides deep within your soul. So in a way, I’m always near you. Perhaps more so than the others.” Hoyozuki muses, pressing her knees against her excessively buxomous chest.

>>4500869

“But it’s not like I can’t understand the feelings emitting from your companions. Even if it wasn’t a big deal….not having the chance to converse over what you were feeling and being left behind...can make someone feel rather...lonely.” Once again you were hit with astute insightfulness coming from the sheltered and monotone beauty. Unsurprisingly that although she doesn’t show many emotions, she’s rather good at reading the emotions and thoughts of others. Although recently she has been trying to hold back on that after you tell her about a thing called “privacy”.

After hearing Hoyozuki’s intake on it, it was the final nail on the coffin for you to realize where they are coming from. Each of them originated from you, so, therefore, they’re forever intertwined with you. So if you were to end up getting hurt or worse, then chances are they would be deeply affected. Even if that wasn’t the case it’ll still bring them a feeling of immense grief and pain. To them, it didn’t matter whether or not you would’ve needed them. Just having the option of at least one of them by your side would give them peace of mind. And it's with that you truly understood the folly of your actions. Relearning the value of them as the sources of your power.

Feeling remorseful you immediately prostrate yourself in the highest form of a bow towards each one of the girls. “You’re right. I should’ve talked to each of you about it. I was so focused on making sure that none of you are bothered by what I’m sensing that I ultimately ended up hurting you. I promise that I’ll always try to talk to you before acting. Please forgive my nearsightedness.”

Looking at one another, the trio of girls turn their attention to Nighty. Deeply taking a moment to gaze at the moon, a soft smile cracks over her face. Turning her attention back to you, the blue-haired woman merely walks over to you. Kneeling to lift your head to look at her face to face. “So long that you understand then that’s enough. Never forget we are the embodiments of your power. But more than that, we’re forever connected. Good things, bad things, all kinds of experiences and feelings. Share them with us. Otherwise, we'll feel lonely.”

“She’s right. We’re basically family after all.” Jabba smiles, pulling over Tenko and Cadence into a tight-knit hug. Earning some hissing from Tenko over the brashness. Cadence meanwhile was content with the chumminess.

Lifting your head and looking at Nighty, you too felt the need to smile. Remembering the feeling of being alone when your parents were too busy with their responsibility. In a way, each of the girls in front of you represented the aspect of the family you deeply cherished and strive to never take for granted.

As you find yourself sharing a moment with the others the door finally opens. This time it was Hoyozuki as she just walked out of the bathroom now finished with her bath. Unlike the rest, it seems that she forgot her towel. Tenko was left stunned as “cat got your tongue” best described her stuttering silence. Cadence looked in curiosity while Jabba puffed her cheeks in a smuggish grin. Having looked at Hoyozuki previously she already documented herself still being the biggest out of the bunch. Nighty on the other hand merely smacks her forehead in an annoyed facepalm. You could only laugh as everyone begins to partake in typical slapstick.

Things have finally returned to normal.

Going to need a tiebreaker or else I'm going to have to rework these two together if nobody has any problems with that.

You can also throw in suggestions over how you want your relationships with the Vizards to go, which one you specifically have the biggest connections to, and other stuff since working for Kisuke as long as you have made you encounter them reasonabily.

Hachigen seems like a good guy.

>>4502664
Haruto'd be pretty cool with the Vizards I imagine. Even putting his ideology aside, he's come into the spiritual world without nearly as much baggage as the others have - no bias to be weirded out/scared by them any more than he'd be weirded out/scared by the other shit he'd seen. Then we have his carefree personality. I imagine most of the Vizards would like him. ...And if Ururu tagging along is common, then we've definitely endeared ourselves to them.

>>4502673
I agree with this. Hachigen's pretty cool, meshes well with Haruto in both personality and battle. Mostly chill, tries to get along well with peers, ridiculous versatility with powerset. Also went above and beyond the standards of his powerset and pushed his Kido to greater heights.

Indeed, it's a good idea to make nice with the one non-jobber of the gang.
