Shades of evening

Captain Posts : 35 Points : 55 Join date : 2010-08-21

A man dressed in black with silver flocks walked through a gate of white appearing through the 3rd Division grounds. The white haori given to Captains of Gotei 13 lazily held over his shoulder. His hair having a distinct shine in the setting evening sun. Within his eyes, reflected the experience of the many hardships of life. The 9th Division Captain, Tetsuya Shirogane was finally back from his little adventure in Karakura. After getting injured and kidnapped by a dangerous intruder who revealed himself as a rather mysterious being with even shadier origins. He was just glad to have gotten back home from all that mess. The rest of his short time off, he wanted to use in peace. Having already disappeared from sight, despite the efforts of the Shinigami stationed there. Apparently, there was a Captain meeting going on, though it seemed like it had reached a standstill. But the male didn't want to bother with such things right now. His swift Shunpo having taken him elsewhere. Four swords strapped around his sides, two over his back. His sights set somewhere else in the distance.

All it took was a step or two. The male now appearing somewhere in the outskirts of the vast area, standing on a nice cliff. A piece of nature left to give the large city of royals a more natural feel to it. It reminded him of an area he had used for resting a couple of days ago. Now, it all seemed like a distant memory, since he had wasted a day or two in a very tedious situation. Just glad to have a peace of mind at long last. The stern male finally relaxed his look. Shoulders held down, relaxed, a lonelier yet warmer look on his face. He sat on the grass of the piece of open land, pulling forward with his right arm. Reaching out for a fresh cord of reed. The male folded it carefully, now holding it on his left hand. His right knee lifted up from the ground, providing a stand for him to rest his right arm on. "Another beautiful sunset eh..." he spoke to himself with a relaxed tone, before placing the grasswhistle over his lips. Blowing on it, to create a rather unique yet comfortable sound. Despite being no proper instruments, the male managed to create a nice melody with it. Almost like a traditional Japanese flute.

A genital breeze began to blow threw the grass and the sky, the light of day was about to fade giving way for another silent night. But this wind was different, it held a soft melody upon it, the sound was not one that someone would hear every day yet it was relaxing and calm to the ear. The melody traveled on till it met the ears of a small dozing figure, it eyes fluttered open first the blue then the green, the light rosey lips parted slightly but not as if to speak. Her head tilted slightly till she was fully aware of her surroundings; slowly placing her hands on the ground she pushed her small body off the ground and into a standing position. Pulling her fingers slowly threw her long light chocolaty brown hair that ran down to the middle of her back making sure she ridded herself of any tangles or grass, once threw with her hair she brushed off her black kimono the curious glimmer never once leavening her non matching eyes. Shaking herself slightly she stood to her full height of 5 foot……one could say she was a child by first glance but in sad truth she was a full grown woman . This young lady was Rina Zakaroichi third seat of the twelfth division and she had just assigned herself a mission…….Find that sound.

Slowly she began to trail along the side of the cliff being extra careful where she placed her feet in fear of falling, in fact falling was one of Rinas bigger fears but that did not necessarily mean literal falling. Soon she stopped paying attention to her feet and homed in on the sound, it was not far it was actually very close……..In fact she could feel the spiritual pressure the maker was giving off, it seemed to be one of the captains …or so she assumed.

“Don’t they have a meeting right about now?” Rina whispered to herself her voice coming out soft and musically.

The figure was one Rina recognized once she came into sight range, his appreance was one she recognized slightly, for once she could even put a name to the body….Tetsuya…. her eyes drifted away from him slightly embarrassed for intruding on her….instead she looked at the setting sun it was quite lovely and without even thinking about what she was doing she walked over and sat next to him not bothering to utter a single word.

The male kept up with his serenade, lost in thought if only for a short fleeting moment. His lips tracing across the leaf, blowing more tunes out of it. The melody being more like a traditional expression of the life of someone following to way of the sword. Representing his own inner challenges as well. From the sound of the whistle, one could imagine it clearly. An open field, on a peaceful day with only a little breeze, two samurai set opposite to one another. Clashing against one another in a battle of skill and honor. Only one making out of the confrontation alive. Such a dramatic, yet high spirited feeling it gave. When it came to traditional music, done in his own unique way, you could say that Tetsuya was rather skilled. The sounds of the grasswhistle stopped. The ears of the male had twitched, as though responding to something. He was sure of it, he had heard the faint voice of someone else. Soft and musical, very pleasing to his ears. The voice was very familiar, most likely belonging to someone he knew. Thinking about it, he closed his eyes for a while. Figuring it out as the familiar figure lurked closer, right next to him.

He opened his eyes, taking a look to his right. There she was, her figure indeed belonging to a person he had known for quite a while now. Although they never had the chance to talk that much to one another. "Zakuroichi... Rina-chan?" he called out, with an unusually soft-spoken tone. She was someone he knew from the 12th Division. In fact, he remembered the female as the most pleasant person of the bunch working under the perverted snake of a Captain working there. He made visits there very often, having a very unusual bond with Jushiro and his family. While they all often were set against one another, they were sort of like friends. She was a special case, a person he rarely showed his grumpiness to. Actually being kind and nice, unlike the rest of them. Even using the -chan suffix when talking about her, even though she was really older than he was. "What are you doing here? Taking a look at the beautiful sunset?" he spoke, this time with a rougher tone to his voice. It still sounded unusually warm, yet tougher than before. Truth to be told, he had left his guard down earlier. Now coughing to set his voice straight.

His attention was now set on both the sunset, and the female sitting right by his side. The grasswhistle he made earlier now set down to his open side. Having been in a very stressful situation for almost two days now, he wanted to relax and take some time for himself. Maybe this could be better managed with a pleasant companion. She was one of the very few people who didn't stress him out, or prove to be an annoyance. The male left out a quick sigh, sounding a bit amused as he did so. Bringing both of his large arms down on the ground behind of him. Now laying back, staring directly towards the sun, while of course minding himself not to look directly at it. His unusual silvery hair shining faintly in the warm light. "Heh. It's been a while since we last met, hasn't it. How have you been?" he asked the female about her life, showing a certain sense of familiarity with her. It was just that the male felt comfortable around her. So long as people didn't get on his nerves too much, he had no problem with them. Despite having an anti-social streak to him most of the time.

Closing her eyes Rina smiled as the faint warmth of the setting sun touched her face, sure it was faint but she knew it was there. The grass was soft under her small hands as she gently brushed it from side to side feeling the blades brush against her. Opening her blue eye slowly she snuck a glance at the man, she realized she never really had any time to speak to him other then the occasional hello when he made his visits to the twelfth devotions sector, recalling one time distinctly when she and a few others when in a rather big hurry to one of the lab rooms to work on something there captain wanted done ASAP and she nearly plowed into him on her way around the corner……… or was the Suo she almost ran into…. Snapping her eye closed once more she tried to recall and failed doing so, once could say failed experiments can at times take a grate toll on the mind, mostly non important memories where the first one to go while the essential stuff such as things that had to do with work and orders her captain gave out to her and whomever was assigned to work with her and what tasks they where to carry out on that given task.

At hearing her name Rinas eyes shot open and adjusted themselves upon Tetsuya, clearly somewhat surprised about how soft spoken he was. Quickly brushing of her slight surprise she began to examine him, his face, his hair, his eyes. Above all things that she recognized him by had to be his hair and the way the sun was hitting it.

“Well’ Rina began her voice soft and genital “Tetsu-san…” tilting her head slightly she smiled “Truthful I was just taking an evening away from my captain, but watching the sunset was on my agenda.” Her smiles trued into somewhat of a fox like grin as she realized he was trying to cover up for his slight guard drop only momentarily ago.

Watching Tetsu turn his attention towards the setting sun Rina let her eyes skim him further in search of what he had used to make that sound she had heard earlier, spotting the blade of grass she smiled remembering making grass whistles when she was a child. Letting out a slight laugh she turned her attention on the sunset once more her face soft and her eyes bright, she seemed to be in a rather good mood this evening. The question that he asked her was a common one yet she felt as if she still had to think about it momentarily before answering, so as if to waste time and laid on her back and stretched letting out a slight sigh of relief before propping herself up on her elbows.

“Indeed it has been some time” she replied her lips pressing together in a thin line, “Ah Iv faired quite w..” Rina cut herself off rather abruptly she did not seem pleased with her choice of words for some reason most likely because they sounded a bit to proper for her, “Iv been quite ok, we’ve gotten a lot of work done over in the twelfth division you should come pay a visit maybe I could show you a think or to.” She offered restoring her composer rather quickly. “But enough about me, how have you been?” she asked rather politely.

It was yet another peaceful evening in the realm of Soul Society. After centuries of conflicts that ravaged through the lands, the new generation of souls could finally enjoy a long time of peace. For how long would such blissful times last in this beautiful place? No one knew for sure. The winds picked up, carrying across the grass and their hair gently, having a certain warmth to it. Despite the changing seasons, the temperatures were rather warm that evening. Tetsuya could feel it as well, the faint warmth of the sun. Touching his face and arms gently, warming up his otherwise cold skin. While he focused his gaze upon the source of light glowing faintly orange in the horizon, he also barely noticed a single eye glancing towards his form. That was about the only similarity between their physical appearances. Both of their eyes blue, yet the optic of the female having a purer shade to it, while the orbs of the male had steely hue to them. But he felt like he was forgetting something. He had seen the female a number of time before after all, if only barely. Then it all became clearer. Her eyes truly a fascinating rarity amongst people.

After starting a proper conversation with Rina, it seemed like she decided to adjust her look towards the male entirely. This time noticing her other eye too, one having a pretty green hue to it. The male turned his head around if only a little, taking a look towards her from the corner of his eyes. That much was enough, he already had a perfect view at the different shapes of her face. Her voice sounding soft and maybe somewhat inviting as well. So she too was taking time away from her duties for a while. The Captain of the 12th Division quickly coming to his mind. The serpent always slithering from place to place, while displaying a nearly constant fox grin. The habit seemed to pass to some of those working under him. He knew that Rina meant no offense with her foxy grin, yet it still sent a quick shiver down his spine. Whenever Jushiro smiled like that, he was normally hiding his plans or most likely trying to annoy him. The silvery haired one showing a faint sheepish smile himself. Still remembering her as the least troublesome one of the bunch.

His eyes still pointed towards hers, he noticed the female began looking through his form. Perhaps in search for something? Noticing her give off a short laughter after noticing his grasswhistle. He replied with a faint half-chuckle himself, finding her reaction somewhat amusing and comforting. Tightening his grasp around the formation of grass, before pulling in front of his lips again. Closing his eyes, as he left out a couple of silent, yet vibrant whistles. Almost like playing a harmonica. One made out of grass. While it wasn't a necessary skill to have in life, it seemed like he truly had mastered the art of using applied instruments to play his melodies. Allowing himself to keep playing while the female was still thinking about her answers. An attempt to bring a better mood to the meeting, giving the both of them a peace of mind. Taking his own mind off of things, and perhaps soothing Rina as well. Placing the self-made instrument down after he heard what she had to say.

Tetsuya left out another short chuckle after noticing her stop the first time. It wasn't the mocking kind, but rather sort of warm and comforting, quite unusual of his usual disposition. Seemed like she still remembered she could be a bit less formal around of him. In a way he was glad of her offer. It had been a while since he last visited the 12th Division quarters after all. But at the same time, a bit of worry in his mind. It always seemed like Jushiro had something in mind for him whenever they were to have a meeting. Always getting on his nerves, despite their unusual bond. "Yeah, thanks for the offer... Guess I'll come take a look around again when Kaizen-san isn't too bored", he spoke with his usual deep and masculine tone. The familiarity of the Captains expressed by how he used the first name. Of course. If it was the two of them, and maybe a couple of other people there. He'd just call the guy 'that damn snake', as per his usually annoyed and grumpy moods.

The male left out a short yawn, removing his hands from behind of his back. Tugging them firmly behind of his neck before slumping down on the grass. The sunset was almost over, only parts of the sun shining yellow and orange in the horizon. The light still carrying pretty far. His eyes now aimed towards the sky which was starting to turn darker. The first stars could already be seen, although only faintly. His disposition was calm, yet he still gave off a grave sounding sigh. As though something was wrong. "Let's see now... It all started with the monthly Captain's dinner a few days ago. Izanagi was being his usual self. Seems like he hasn't been able to give up his usual habits and making a mess. Then I had a short-lived meeting with my Lieutenant. Before I had to go hunt down a mysterious intruder. The guy was pretty strong, managed to cause some damage to me and the Division as I'm sure you know. I tried going after him after recovering, but it seems like me and the 4th Division Lieutenant got knocked out somewhere along the line. We were locked into a dark room for two days. Forced to watch the same movie over and over again. And when I finally got out, I didn't even get the proper chance to apprehend the criminal. He's a very strange and out-of-control kind of person, that's for sure", the male explained, annoyance shown greatly in his voice. But after he was done getting this out of his heart, he took another sigh, this time sounding much more relaxed. He was glad to be back at home.

Rinas eyes flashed slightly as she sensed a wave of discomfort flow off of Tetsu’s body for a brief moment, instinctively she places a light hand on his shoulder, turning her head so she was looking straight at him “No worries my friend.” She smiles gently “Im not like my captain, or many other in my division.” She said letting out a slight cat like purr of amusement. Slowly she allowed her hand to fall back onto the ground, her gaze once more fixated on the sky her ears on Tetsu. Everything seemed so peaceful and calm, there was no buzzing about trying to get work done, no hostility at that moment, there seemed to be much peace among the soul society. After all it was not every day that captains, or seated officers could just sit back relax and watch the sunrise without much worry that something may happen during their absence, it seems that even in times of peace there was always something to do…….. it just seemed that today was just one of those rare days in which they should learn to enjoy and embrace. After all everyone needs some time off to take a simple breather from time to time no matter what the rank may or may not be.

The sound came once again bringing a smile to Rinas pink lips, it was relaxing. Music always was relaxing when played right. Closing her eyes she had an invasion of cherry blossoms falling over a lake people walking about with their families and friends, a lone swan swimming across the lake to meet its friends. That always seemed to be a very popular day dream with Rina because that was something she always wished she could see, but so far she had never seen anything even close to that only in her daydreams. “That’s a very nice sound” she muttered softly her voice calm and carefree like the breeze

It seemed he had caught Rinas correction for some reason she found it somewhat embarrassing, most likely because she seemed to have a habit of talking to everyone a bit more formally then called for………IT was not because she enjoyed doing so but more along the lines of a force of habit………. Yet she found the slight laugh somewhat comforting in a welcoming way, a way that made it seem as if it did not matter………Turning her eyes back on him for a brief second and smiled then returned to looking at the fading sunlight but making sure to keep her ears open. A small smile played across her lips after he spoke, she knew her captain could be rather bothersome when he is bored and you just so happen to become his new form of amusement, though she herself had never been put into that disposition she had witnessed him toying with other officers before with his sly grin and his ways of sneaking about and making what he was doing rather inconspicuous to those whom don’t always see the hidden picture with in the larger one.

Letting out a yawn she sighed every time she’s sees someone yawn she yawns, every time she hears the word yawn she yawns, every time she even sees the word she always ends up yawning and it just so happen she saw Tetsuya yawn thus she yawned. Skimming the sky she looked at the newly appearing star and the setting sun, soon it would be dark….what would she do then? Just then she heard Tetsuya let out a sigh, one that did not sound happy but grave……… And that graveness triggered her curiosity, slowly laying down on her back Rina turned her head and looked at him slowly folding her hand neatly on her stomach awaiting for him to speak. What he said made her chuckle slightly at first it seemed that even in the presence of captains Izanagi never changes… That was not always a good thing after all not everyone seemed to enjoy his antics and from what Rina could see in Tetsuya he was one of the people who found it rather bothersome………She could not say she agreed with that opinion nor could she say she disagreed after all she just ignored it most of the time no matter how hard it was at times. The next topic was the intruder…… she nodded slightly she had heard of it but she did not know much about what happened. Rinas expression hardened slightly that story was strange she would have liked to know more but she knew her place was not to ask.

“Well im happy your safe,” Rina stated gently “That character does seem quite strange ill admit, but its only a matter of time before he’s apprehended.” Slowly she turned her eyes back to the sky more and more stars where beginning to show themselves, with only a small liver of light left she wondered what she was going to do next. “What do you plan on doing after the sun is completely gone?” Rina asked curiously her eyes still fixated on the fading sun and the rising stars.

Much to his surprise, Tetsuya found Rina gently placing her hand over his shoulder while they were discussing about the visit to the 12th Division. Their two Divisions did a lot of work together after all, so it wasn't that uncommon for him to visit there. It was just that Izanagi could be a very tricky person when he wanted to. Dealing with him always presented its own risks. Despite the two of them actually being sort of like friends. The reason being why the young Captain made his visits there anyways. The members of the Jushiro family and the common members of the Division themselves proved quite a task at times. Luckily there were exceptions to this rule such as the one besides him. She was more peaceful than the others, and actually quite pleasant. Despite having her fair share of quirks. The male replied to her purr by cracking a faint smirk. "Yeah. And it's not like Kaizen is such a bad person to have around. Maybe I'll come over to check on things sooner than I though", he commented before returning to playing his notes.

The melody coming out from his folded leaf peaceful as ever. Both of them lost in their own little daydreams, though the steely-blue eyed male had to focus more on actually playing the instrument. Noticing the female closing her eyes. He could only wonder what exactly she was thinking of. Perhaps having a sweet little daydream to relax her nerves? Her soft and calm voice becoming one with the passing breeze. Both of their sounds carried over by it. The male felt it playing with his hair, making it flow towards his left as well. A chill contained within, the colder seasons were upon them. After he had removed his lips from the folded leaf, he conversed more with Rina. "It is, isn't it? When you're always out on the field, it's not like you can have an instrument around at all times. So when you need to relax a little, it's useful to learn how to make small melodies with things such as blades of grass or large leaves", was what he had to say. Agreeing with the female, that was the very reason he had played with the thing in the first place. Now resting back while telling the tale of his last couple of stressful days.

It seemed like his tiresome yawn caught on. The brown-haired female letting out a yawn as well. Most likely a force of habit. The stars gradually starting to glimmer more and more. The first one coming to sight being the Sirius. Well, the Soul Society equivalent of the star of the human world. It was still a mystery, the stars in the skies of Soul Society. No one had bothered to find out more about them yet. A funny thought, maybe the 12th Division would do something about it in the future. This made him relax a little more as he shared the tale of his last couple of days with the female. It was stressful, getting caught up in an explosion, then being on the run carried by the Lieutenant of the 4th Division, and getting kidnapped somewhere along the line. Truth to be told, he still wanted some kind of justice to be dealt on Byron for all the damage he had caused so far. The male was a renegade, an envoy of chaos. Finally sighing in a relaxed way as he got the stuff out of his heart. Now gazing upon the starry sky once more.

At first, the male seemed silent. Only raising his arm up to the sky, as if trying to grasp at the brightest of stars. Giving himself a sarcastic half-chuckle, before bringing his arm down to his side. His head turned towards Rina as well. "I don't really have any plans for tonight... Perhaps I'll just stay here, enjoy the sights a little, and have a nice sleep under the moon. It's not like the guys at my Division need me there just yet. You?" he replied with a fairly relaxed voice, still showing his usually rough and manly tone, alongside a certain nonchalantness. The Captains and some other worrywarts might actually be making a big deal out of his short absence. But really now, this evening he wanted to rest, do some contemplating and let the steam out. Basically continuing his short vacation for the sake of getting all the problems out of his systems. So far, he had managed to do so very well. It was only a matter of time before he'd be back into his full power.

The stars shimmered brightly in the sky as Rina gazed up at them her mouth curved into a slight smile, they were very pretty in her opinion, they seemed to shin brighter and brighter ever minute she lied there. The temperature dropped with the sun as normal the cool air of the night falling upon them, it was a clear night luckily for them making visibility of the stars rather clear unless one had poor eye sight that is. Slowly she closed on eye and extended her pinky and started to connect the star into their own unofficial constellations. The smile seemed to fade slowly her expression turning more relaxed and natural as she turned her head slightly to listen to Tetsuya speak. What he said made her smile slightly, she would like to show her work to someone who might appreciate it.. Rinas closed her eyes slowly as if she where taking in the quite sounds of the night and of the little melody in which the person next to her continued to play, she looked rather peaceful and somewhat happy at the moment her chest rose and fell slowly almost like she was asleep but the small natural smile said otherwise

“Sing a song onto the world. Rising high the clouds unfurl. Fan the flames into past. Here now our lives will last. We'll never know the times of pain. Fall down fall down falls the rain. My life won't be plain…” Sang a voice within the woman’s head

Opening her eyes Rinas looked around the little voice in her head had stopped singing, the songs was one she was vaguely acquainted with the song but the verses where still jumbled……..Yet she still found it rather peaceful and breath tacking. In fact music had always been a way for her to relax and cope with the stress people tended to put on her when they worked upon an assignment. In fact at times she would carry a small music box in her pocket but sadly at that moment it was back in her room…. But that did not matter just lying there having a casual conversation with Tetsuya was enough relaxation for her, and the little grass interment just added to her rare calmness. “ I think ill make time to learn how to make music with grass, for beign such a simple thing it creates a lovely sound” She commented a small grin crossing her lips as she threw her arms over her head stretching slightly.

A small hum came from Rina as she moved her hands to her side once more her back making a rather loud cracking sound as she did so, giving herself a quick shake she returned to just laying there humming a soft little tune most likely from one of the many lullaby’s she had learned over the years in which she had dwelled in the soul society…… her soft humming was very well tuned and rather soothing as it slowly crept out of her slightly parted lips.. But then she stopped as soon as she saw his lips move, turning onto her side to face him she tilted her head almost unsure of how to answer his question, after all she did not want to sound like a burden or anything…..”I see.” Rina said letting out a slight purr of amusement, “it seems every one needs some down time every now and again,” looking into his eyes as if searching them then slowly broke away . “Well myself Im not quite sure yet,” she stated softly “I would not mind keeping you company for a while…” she paused pushing her bangs away from her eyes, “That’s if you don’t mind..” she finished rolling back onto her back and facing back up at the starry sky

Once again she closed her left eye and began to make non existing formations, at one point trying to make a rabbit but failing miserably. But then a cold breeze flowed past, making the blades of grass tilt and sway also allowing a few stray leaves to tumble along the ground, it was brief but it was enough to make Rinas hair stand on end for a moment before feeling relatively conferrable tempter wise…… letting out a small sigh of relief RIna crossed her arms over her chest allowing her mind to wander to where ever it pleased.

The light of the day had already passed, gradually replaced by the dark of the night. Two very different persons lying down on the ground, gazing at the stars shining somewhere far above. Trying to enjoy the evening with the company of one another. The silvery haired male, Tetsuya, took a moment to gather himself. Eyes closed, a relaxed sigh soon coming out of his mouth. Slowly opening his eyes to take a better look at the stars that now began appearing one after one. Soon the panorama of the sky would be filled with all the different stars there were, the faint light of the sun growing fainter by the second. The male made some movements with his body, trying to find a more comfortable pose to stay in. His neck supported by both of his strong arms. Steely-blue eyes scanning across the horizon. Faintly making out constellations out of the small orbs of light. Imprinting the scenery into his mind. Even across the realms, the skies had certain differences to them. Something one could spend a short eternity thinking, if he found enough interest in such mysteries.

Tetsuya spared himself a faint chuckle, amused at how his thoughts were running around. Was he starting to turn sentimental now that he finally found a single moment of peace? What a silly thought. There were many things he wondered about, but only rarely did he ever have the need to think them out. Rather getting forward the way he knew best. The eyes of the male now carefully taking a look towards his right from the corner of his eyes. Rina was making some movements herself. A deep breath, perhaps a sign of relaxation. Soon followed by her complimenting on how his playing with the folded leaf sounded. It was nice to get complimented, though the male was quite humble about things most of the times. "Thanks. It's a skill learned quickly, but mastered with years of practice. Oh well, I'm sure you could learn how to do it as well, easily. It's not such a difficult thing to do and you can always ask for advice", he explained, a carefree nonchalantness in his tone. Coming from someone like him, it actually sounded rather pleasant.

It seemed like the female was a bit amused herself, perhaps enjoying the time she spent there, just resting. Soft humming that sounded like a lullaby, interrupted by the cracking of tensed joints. It was a pleasant tune indeed. It was now the time for him to relax with the melody, rather than being the artist to provide them with the relaxing tones. Her eyes meeting with his once. The female purred, as though something was amusing her. A particular habit she had. The male closed his eyes after their contact broke, thinking shortly. Opening them once more as he composed himself. "Yeah, sometimes it's best to just think things over. Then again, I don't mind it. There is nothing wrong with company, so long as it's the kind of company you like or desire", he spoke with a calm tone, returning to his back once more as well. Steely eyes aimed towards the heavens once more, like he always did.

Still, the male couldn't help but find himself lost in thought. It was all the things piling up, and the current situation as well. Silent moments like these. They had a tendency of making him nostalgic. Certain memories of the past coming to mind. He shook his head once, trying to focus on more relevant things. Coming upon thought he hadn't considered before. While I'm not the kind of person who likes crowds or anything. Perhaps spending time with others really helps taking my mind out of things. Heh. How silly, he berated himself within his head. Now removing his arms from underneath his neck, spreading them out. Taking in his surroundings even more than before. Eyes taking note of the wind that played around with their hair and clothes, the imaginary constellations Rina tried forming, and the pleasant breeze around of them. While nostalgic, this truly was the kind of evening he needed.

A faint half smile crawled across the woman’s lips as yet another genital breeze blew past tugging at their close and hair in a somewhat playful manner , as if asking them to fallow it on it journey to somewhere far away, with it, it bared the fragrance of flowers ,night air, and grass..It was a welcoming smell in her opinion……..It held a somewhat genital, fragile, and even mysterious vibe to it, almost making her wish she could go with it as long as the sent where to never fade away…….It seemed she had always taken a likening to those smells along with hay and straw for some reason……..She almost wished she knew why but another part of her could care less.

Raising a pinky to the sky once more Rinas face returned to a more natural appearance as she trace over once spot repeatedly in the night sky, her open eye squinting slightly as she did so almost completely missing ever word Tetsuya said……That was a bad habit of her, getting to preoccupied in what she is doing and accidently almost tuning everyone and everything out…..Well the tuning others out was quite conmen with her seeing she never was a big fan of conversation with men, maybe some small talk with woman but that was about it… naturally she had her reasons even if they weren’t the best of reasons ……But she was willing to make exceptions for a few people Like her captain, Suo-san, and Tetsu-kun other than that she tried to stay strictly professional.

Runnign her pinkly over the star constellation once more Rina began to recall it quite distinctly, it was the first one she had ever made, in a very odd way it looked like half of a heart, she remembered it from when she would lay on the roof tops of the district she once lived in and just counted the stars and tracing them with her fingers, back in the day when friend or foe was not something she ever thought of…….In fact the term friend was almost alien to her for some reason and as far as she could recall she never really had friends up till rather recently and most of them where because of her work in which she took part in order to better the her fellow soul reapers. Turning her head to the man a warm smile crossed her lips once more “Sometimes just being in the presents of someone you enjoys enough helps relieve stress and sometimes lift the vial of loneliness on ones heart..If only for a little while” she tilted her head “ Everyone needs human contact from time to time even those whom pretend otherwise ,” allowing her arms to fall to her sides she closed her eyes once more allowing herself to drift off into thought.

“Its funny really,” she thought opening her oculars and looking up at her constellation “That even after hundreds of years something’s never seem to fade from one’s mind….. No matter how big or small…..bad or good….they seem as if they will always be there.” A small shutter seemed to flow through the females body for a moment, one could not be sure of why but it was either the chilly night or a random that that seemed to flow into her seemingly never resting mind. Slowly a hand rose running itself threw the long silky hair as her chest rose and fell deeply, her eyes closeting one more as she listened to the sounds around her….From time to time opening one eye to take a quick glance at Tetsuyas own.
