Shinigami Application

--------------------
General Information
--------------------
Name: Momiji, Kuroda
Actual Age: 168
Appearing Age: 16
Gender: Male
Appearance
-Shinigami attire
-Human World Clothing
Kuroda is kinda tall, though there are a good number of people that are taller, standing at six feet and three inches. His hair is cut in a layered, spiked fashion and is easily blown around by the wind. It is black in color, except for a small streak of red which is found on the inside of the long hair on the back of his head, it's pretty much hidden, though if he is in a high wind and his hair is being blown around it might be seen. When it is still his hair is around mid-neck length.
His skin is a medium-olive color (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_skin -This is what I mean) and has a few scars from his past, six to be exact, three on his right arm, one on his chest, a short one on his right arm, and a long one which curves halfway around his right leg. He has green eyes which contrast his other features completely, though he doesn't mind. He is well toned, but his muscles aren't very big, both are signs that he burns fat like no other, but doesn't work much towards growing his muscles.
Moving on from physical appearance, Kuroda wears the traditional shinigami attire, which consists of the regular white shitagi, black kosode, black hakama, white hakama-himo, white tabi, and waraji. His Kosode however has a long stip which is severed from the main part on each side and simply hangs next to the main part. He never tucks his Kosode in, so his Shitagi is nearly always fully visible when he wears his uniform.
However when he is in the human world his clothing changes are dramatic. Kuroda prefers to wear baggy, cargo pants, which he tends to stuff the pockets full of things he doesn't really need to take around, but does anyway, along with a black tank top and blue jacket with a medium sized circle design with a lightning bolt in the center, on the right side of the jacket. He sports blue Nike sneakers with white laces, which are rather flashy if he does say so himself.
Personality
Kuroda is has above average intelligence, and as such, he enjoys it when something challenges his intelligence. He doesn't care much for training because he sees it as boring because its not a real fight, and will jump at the chance to go out and kill actual hollows rather than being stuck with doing nothing.
He considers himself to be an above average shinigami, partly because of how young he is compared to others in his squad and partly because of how often he is sent into the Human World. He often mentions this to the annoyance of others. However he has shown that he is just that, but this only makes his arrogance worse.
He frowns upon heavy partying and drinking, though its probably because people won't let him drink because he looks underage, though they know he isn't. If he does somehow get a hold of liquor however, he won't have anything against partying, simply because even a small sip will get him drunk.
He does sometimes forget his duties as a shinigami when in Seireitei. Although some people might call his forgetfulness a 'lack of dedication', it isn't that he isn't dedicated, it's just that he is only dedicated to what he sees as fun and what he wants to do. For him work and training are not fun, but practicing various arts and actual fighting are fun, therefore he is dedicated to real fighting, and art.
He keeps his cool in battle, that is if he isn't battling to protect others, if he is fighting for others he will abandon his regular calm, reasonable state of mind (Although he would probably win more easily if he didn't) and go all out against whoever is the threat. This is sort of a 'barbarian state' where he doesn't use as much technique and instead uses more of his brute strength and zanpakuto abilities to win the fight.
Because of a rival and friend that Kuroda lost nearly 80 years ago, Kuroda has been collecting shards of the masks off the hollows he has defeated. He will never miss the chance to take them, but will not take shards off hollows he didn't kill. So as not to alienate people he is careful not to reveal that he does this.
He does have one central fear though. Snakes. He hates them more than anything and his fear of them can sometimes be paralyzing and make him vulnerable. It is rare for him to be able to fight hollows that look like them, especially if their powers have anything snake-like about them.
History
A new soul, nothing left behind. But with opportunities ahead.
Kuroda was very young when he died, only about six months old, but didn't arrive in soul society alone. His mother was with him when they both died, and were found by the same shinigami. So because their Konso were done together, they arrived together in the Soul Society. As Kuroda grew up there in soul society his mother and he had several chance encounters with people that were able to help them; an old man who was willing to let them live in the spare room of his house, a lady Kuroda and his mother met in the market who divulged the information that she could sense that Kuroda had a high concentration of spiritual energy, and most importantly, Kuroda met a shinigami, the shinigami confirmed what the woman had said, that he had a remarkably high concentration of spiritual energy, and that it should be put to a good use.
Enter, the academy.
A child genius, challenged for the first time.
Kuroda was the youngest of his class, though it was to be expected, not many 90-year-olds in the Soul Society were strong enough or talented enough to be in the academy, nonetheless, he was there.
It was quite soon that he stuck out like a sore thumb among the students because of his age. He was in the advanced class, but that proved to be somewhat challenging for him. The work was much more difficult than he expected and the pace at which they moved was very fast. He disliked practicing or studying for class, only doing the minimal amount to keep a good grade in each of the classes. Of course, his skills in the various classes weren't great, but he did do alright. And despite the fact that he was young, bright, and did what he needed to do, he was denied any real authority, those positions were given to those who, unlike him, were known to go out of their way to do something extra.
So he progressed, for six short years Kuroda studied, going on several human world excursions, and even leading them on three different occasions in his fifth and sixth years. He was still challenged by the work and other activities, that is, except for when he was in battle. In battle he was much better than in the classroom, cutting down many of the mock hollows. Fortunately, he never had to face the real ones, as he was not nearly powerful enough to try that yet. At the end of his sixth year he was well educated and well trained, ready to join the 13 court guard squads, which he did. The Graduation ceremony was a short short, though it did mark a large step in Kurodas'lifeafterlife; he was now a fully fledged Shinigami. He was ready to take on the evil forces that arose from that hellish place; Hueco Mundo.
Among the ranks: His placement in the 8th Squad
Kuroda had nearly no real idea as to which squad he wanted to go into, unlike most of his class who had already signed on to their particular fields. However, as he knew that the 8th squad was one that was allowed to go to the real world often for expeditions, it was there that Kuroda requested to be assigned.
This request was met several days after it was made, and Kuroda found himself presented with the patch that symbolized the 8th division, the patch emblazoned with a single Bird of Paradise flower.
Kuroda found life in a squad to be exciting at first, as it was something new to him, but as time went on it became boring. No longer were the classes of the academy challenging him, and his work int eh squad was less than he expected. Chores, training, research, more chores, it became incredibly repetitive for him. That is, until his first real-hollow fight.
The Death of a Friend
The eighth squad's members were numerous and varied, and among them was one who, like Kuroda, was one of the younger members of the squad. She was around Kuroda's age, give or take a decade. Out of interest he approached her on his second day as a squad member and introduced himself, and she revealed to him that her name was Riko Fujiwara, and that she had only just graduated as well, but she had been in a special class for those that were going to work up to be a part of the kido corps, but she needed to be a part of a squad first.
That first meeting was a beginning of a friendly rivalry. He found that her abilities in Kido far surpassed his own and her swordsmanship was just as advanced as his own, but he was better at hand to hand combat. He began to try and out do her in everything, training, missions, anything they did together he tried to do better than her. She pushed him to points he had never reached before, but she often beat him in performance.
As rivals they grew close, and it was this attachment that made Kuroda hate Hollows more than anything.
They were guarding a research team that was heading to the human world to collect samples from a rare type of Gillian Class Hollow that had been sighted. The Gillian had shown signs of higher intelligence than others, and was recorded by a recon team, eating another Gillian Class Hollow. The plan was to seal it within a barrier that would be cast by Riko and current member of the Kido Corps that was present. Then Kuroda and another squad eight member by the name of Kaira, would shield the researchers from attack. Of course, that was just the plan, what actually happened was a whole different story.
Sure, their arrival went smoothly and they managed to locate the Gillian, but from there on the plan fell apart. Riko and the Kido Corps member had formed the six level barrier around the Gillian and it was when Kuroda and Kaira moved in that the unexpected happened. At that time a lot less was known about the abilities of Menos Grandes, and the power of Cero was underestimated, even at the Gillian class, a level six barrier would easily be broken by a Cero, which is exactly what happened.
The Gillian, even though it was unable to move, was able to charge a Cero inside the barrier, though the Shinigami paid no heed to it, believing the barrier to be strong enough to withstand it. But when the Cero fired, the barrier shattered, and there was only one Shinigami in the way when it fired. Riko was right at the side of the barrier when the Cero fired, and took the full force of the blast, which left no trace of her behind. They had to retreat without gathering the information on the Gillian, because it was too strong for a single Kido corps member to contain, and too strong for them to defeat.
Kuroda fell into a state of depression at the loss of his rival and friend, his greatest regret was her dying before he had reached her level, she had killed many more hollows than he did, and had achieved shikai when he hadn't. Slowly he came to the conclusion that she wouldn't want him to stop training, and he devised a challenge that would allow him to come to terms with her death. He would have to achieve shikai, and to kill 10,000 hollows, to keep track of the numbers, he would take a single shard from each hollow mask. It took him several weeks to get back to his normal self. Soon after he presented his report from the previous mission, he was assigned to take part of another, lower priority one, a simple guard mission for a group of Shinigami students that were going into the Human world for training.
He was sent to the human world as pair of shinigami that were supposed to oversee a group of academy students that were on a 'field trip' to practice, much in the same way Kuroda was sent to the human world from time to time in the academy. It seemed like it would just be another chore for him, but as time went on something seemed amiss. Kuroda felt it first. The students were not far away, but just far enough to not notice the pair of shinigami tagging along, but the fake-hollows were starting to attract attention. One after the other, small Garganta opened in the air around the students, and soon they were surrounded by five low class hollows. It was something that academy students wouldn't be able to handle.
Immediately Kuroda made a beeline for the action, he wouldn't let more shinigami die on his watch. He dashed at the group of hollows and the academy students, he was still young, but his skill and strength was undeniable. He had grown much stronger in the six months he had been out of the academy, simply through sparring with his squad members. He had been beaten and bruised very often at first, but in six months, not only had beaten the non-seated members, but even fought on matched ground with some of the seated officers, though they hadn't released their shikai, and Kuroda had yet to achieve his.
Leaping up and shouting, Kuroda brought his zanpakuto down upon the head of the nearest hollow, cleaving through it like butter, but his blade caught on a rough edge of the mask as it went through, snapping a large chip off which fell to the ground and remained there, just rocking back and forth. Event though the hollow had dissolved, that shard remained on the ground. The academy students looked at him in surprise, they had been expecting to die then and there it seemed. However, they couldn't be more wrong, Kuroda wasn't about to let anyone die. He quickly grabbed that shard that he had seen fall to the ground and stuffed it into the folds of his Obi, the first shard of his 10,000, still heading toward the second hollow.
With a loud cry and a slash from his sword, Kuroda sliced the second hollows mask, this time purposefully cutting off a fraction of the mask and following up with a fatal upwards slash which cleaved the hollow in two. This second shard he cut off he snatched as well, as though by some radical compulsion. The third, fourth and fifth hollows by now were standing ready to fight him, his edge of surprise had left, fortunately, he wasn't afraid. Thr third hollow was just as easily dispatched as the first two, and form it Kuroda also took a mask shard. He felt some sort of sadistic pleasure in taking a piece of those that he had killed.
The second shinigami was nowhere to be seen, but then a blade protruded from the mask of one of the hollows cracking the mask vertically and forcing the hollow to dissolve, which revealed the other shinigami, looking at Kuroda with a frown on his face, had he seen what Kuroda did? The fifth hollow wasn't nearly bright enough to realize that he was now alone, nor to look over at the shinigami, and as such, was dispatched with another swing of the shinigami's blade. Kuroda didn't collect shards from these last two hollow, he had no reason to, they were not his kills.
Awakening of a zanpakuto, when one creates two and the two are one.
Kuroda continued to pursue his love of the adrenaline that true fighting gave him, while also discovering other things that he had a passion for, but he also knew that he could only go so far with his sealed zanpakuto. He wanted his shikai, he wanted it dearly, and had been pursuing the art of Jinzen for many years, and he conversed with his zanpakuto, but was still unable to hear its name. He had a strange feeling though, as though his zanpakuto resented some of his ways of living, and that was why he couldn't hear it speak its' name.
Because of his limitation of only being able to use his sealed zanpakuto Kuroda had to find something else to occupy him for the time that he was not on missions that were within his ability, and he found peace in the arts and beauties of nature. He began to draw and paint in his free time, and even compose music for himself, learning to play several instruments in that time as well. As he learned of the great arts he felt that some sort of heavy weight had been lifted from his shoulders. Life wasn't all about the fight, there was also beauty in it, and one had to appreciate it for inner peace. It was when he came to learn this that his jinzen showed results.
He once again traveled to his inner world, but now, instead of being a blurry image, the spirit that he conversed with so often had solidified into a distinct form. And what he had suspected, was correct. There was a single girl that stood before him now, smiling gently at him.
She spoke to him softly, "You seem to have come to realize that life is not supposed to be violent, you now know art, and that was the only barrier between us. My ideas didn't agree with yours, but now that you can see how beautiful the world is in and of itself, you can hear me tell you our names. This blade I reside in is Arashi Souzousha, and I am Hibiki."
When she had finished Kuroda was forcefully shoved out of the world and found that he was still holding a sword, however, this sword was much different from his sealed zanpakuto. This sword had a longer, serrated edge, and the metal's color was a deep blue, nearly violet, and on the pommel of the sword was a bell-shaped extention, much like that of a musical instrument's. And set just before the beginning of the bell was a small glass chamber, glowing with yellow light. This was his shikai, and it had finally been released.
The present day, where Kuroda is now.
Kuroda has become quite powerful in the years after gaining his shikai, and has matched nearly all in his squad in combat. He is able to overpower all but a few and even then they respect him for his talent and intelligence. During the Winter War he was injured from a previous excursion and didn't participate, which he wasn't happy about, but with the recent Arrancar activity in the Human world he has been able to get back into the fight. He has been spending a large amount of time in the human world because of this and as such, he has allowed some of the fine edges of his personality become slightly rougher and more interesting. He still longs for power, and is still denied it as he hasn't honed his skills enough, nor impressed the captains to make himself noticed. Despite all the fighting, he has only been able to collect a single Arrancar mask shard, and it is the center of his collection.

Zanpakutō
--------------------
Name: Arashi Souzousha
Translation - (Tempest Creator)
Unreleased Appearance
In its sealed form Arashi Souzousha is a single katana nearly 50 inches long (40 inch blade, 10 inch handle) The handle and sheath are both black, and the guard and pommel are both gold/ bronze. The guard itself is sort of a diamond shape, flaring outwards on each thin end and slightly closer to the blade it is pressed thinner, and another diamond, this one black, is visible inside the outer one. On the end of the pommel there is a red tassel about six inches long, with a gold decoration strung about halfway down the tassel.
The sheath is dark maroon, with a black cord tied around it near the mouth of it.
--------------------
Zanpakutō Spirit
--------------------
Name: Hibiki
Gender: Female
Spirit Appearance
Hibiki appears as a girl of about seventeen years of age. She has a peachy completion, and her skin is flawless. Her looks contrast greatly with the shikai form of the zanpakuto she resides in, while she appears docile and gentle, the zanpakuto appears deadly and fierce. Her hair is knee-length and platinum blonde, framing her face nicely. She is about five foot seven, and weighs about 143 lbs. Her bust is of a good size, a large D-Cup, making her well-endowed. She wears a kimono that is a pale silver, with a white obi, and has the kanji 嵐; (Tempest) stitched on the back in black thread.
Personality
Hibiki enjoys watching things that she sees as beautiful, birds, trees, nature itself. These are some of the things that interest her. She is gentle and caring for nature, and takes care of the plants in Kurodas’ inner world, and enjoys peace and quiet. She also loves the arts; music and drawing especially. She sings softly to herself and to Kuroda if he is around to listen, and when he isn’t, she draws on a sketchpad that never runs out of paper and with a pen that never runs out of ink.
Relationship to Master
Hibiki likes Kuroda though does disagree with him about fighting, as he enjoys it, and she despises it, and she encourages him to make use of his free time and fill it with art. When alone with Kuroda, Hibiki likes to show him the beauty of nature and the various patterns and symmetrical things found in nature as well. She will also sometimes sing for him, and show him some of her artistic drawings. She knows that she is there to protect Kuroda, and that it pretty much the only thing that will stop her from disagreeing about fighting, if Kuroda is in mortal danger.
Inner World
The world which the spirit reside in is on a stormy mountain top, within a large, feudal-style palace. The palace itself is within a crater on top of the mountain and is often pounded on by fierce thunderstorms. Though on the inside of the palace all seems peaceful. There are times when there isn’t a storm on the mountain, however that’s only when Kuroda is uneasy, rather odd, I know. Hibiki enjoys playing in the rain of Kurodas inner world, rather than being cooped up inside her room. When at his most peaceful state, Kurodas' inner world will have several rays of sunlight that pierce through the clouds and create a faint rainbow across the mountaintop.

Zanpakutō Shikai
--------------------
Call Out Phrase: Raikou higyou soshite ikazuchi shougekki! Arashi Souzousha!
Translation – Lightning strike and Thunder crash! Arashi Souzousha!
Shikai Appearance
When released to shikai Arashi Souzousha morphs into a distinctly different katana as most zanpakuto do when released. The blade of the zanpakuto is now a few inches longer than before, about 46 inches. In this form the blade, guard, and hilt have changed to a dark silver, with the very edge of the blade a dark shade of blue. The guard has changed from being horizontal to vertical, lining up with the blade and handle, it looks a lot like a loose celtic knot. The blade is now serrated at intervals of seven inches down the length of it. Moving down the handle there is now a four inch thick glass chamber set near the pommel of the sword, it is always glowing with a yellow light. Right below the chamber the pommel flares outward into a bell shape.
Shikai Abilities
Raiasobi, Arashi Souzousha
- Description of Attack – Air is first sucked into the conversion chamber through the bell on the end of the zanpakuto, and then, while it is in the chamber, spiritual energy is added to excite the atoms and molecules to boost them to the plasma state of air, lightning. The time it takes to suck in the air and convert it is about the same amount of time as a single breath. Kuroda can continue move while the sword is "Inhaling." Once the conversion is complete the energy is then sent out the tip of the the zanpakuto as a jagged bolt of lightning.
The air used for this attack cannot be from someone else's wind attack, the air needs to be unaltered by spiritual energy for him to use it. Kuroda can only hold a single charge in the zanpakuto at a time and cannot make another charge until the three post recharge is met.- Type - Lightning, Ranged, Offensive
- Range - Short to Long (Up to 15 meters)
- Limitation - Like many lightning based attacks this attack is weak against wind based abilities, as wind can revert the lightning back to it's gaseous state as normal air. This can match wind attacks only up to one tier below Kuroda's. The attack will be overpowered out if meets a wind attack that is Kuroda's same tier or above. About 3% of Kuroda's spiritual energy is taken up to create the lightning in the blade, no extra energy is needed to launch it. Also, this takes quite a bit of time to recharge, about three posts.
This attack works best on those that are on tiers below himself, as most attacks do. When used on someone 1 tier below Kuroda the damage they receive is moderate, mainly electrical burns that are painful but not serious. Going lower on the scale the damage gets more serious. At 2 tiers below the electrical burns are joined by slight muscle degeneration, causing small bundles of muscle around the area of contact to be torn apart and rendered useless.
Someone that is 3 tiers or more below will suffer more damage than anyone else, receiving severe electrical burns that are very painful and can often scar the person permanently, at this level the muscle degeneration is more serious as well, the areas of damage being more numerous and larger.
On someone that is at Kuroda's same tier or higher the damage is much less, ranging from painful, medium-sized electrical burns near the spot of contact to a shiver down their spine, to absolutely nothing.
Hihei, Arashi Souzousha
- Description of Attack – Air is sucked into the zanpakuto through the bell on the end and quickly converted into a condensed form of lightning that can deflect attacks, it is then projected into a shield by Kuroda swinging his Zanpakuto vertically. The air sucked in cannot be someone else's attack, the air must be stationary in order to use it. The time it takes to suck in the air and convert it is about the same amount of time as a single breath. Kuroda can move while the sword is "Inhaling." The lightning spreads out from the tip three feet on each side of the slice.
Up to three of these shields can be in the area of Kuroda's Zanpakuto. Even if the post count for creating shields has been reset, if there are three shields on the field, even if they are combined into one, as explained next, Kuroda cannot make any more. It is only possible for Kuroda to hold up to two charges at a time inside his sword, however, Kuroda can make up to three charges within the 7 post period, as three shields can be created, and the charges can be spread out over time as far as he wants or as close together in time as he wants just as long as he doesn't exceed the two charge limit.
When multiple shields are formed if they are within two feet of each other they will "reach" towards each other and form a cohesive whole, but not if they are facing different directions. When the shields connect they are still recognized as separate shields, just connected by spiritual energy, and as such, Kuroda cannot make any more shields even if the three he created are connected.
The Shields can be created far apart form each other, but if Kuroda is more than twenty-five feet from any one of them, the shield or shields that is/are out of that range shall shatter and dissolve.- Type - Lightning, Defensive
- Range - Very Short
- Limitation - The shield can only partially defend from attacks from someone exactly at Kurodas tier and defend much better against those that are below his tier at the time of use, being able to take one to five attacks respectively (1 more for each tier below his, someone at his level would break the shield in one attack, one tier below the attack would be deflected.) before dissipating.
Should Kuroda attempt to block an attack of someone 1 rank higher than his own, the shield can slow the attack but will break and let the attack through should it be too strong. And for an attack used by someone 2 ranks higher than Kuroda, it will simply dissolve around the attack and not guard against itm leaving a hole in the shield where the attack went through.
The shield shares the weaknesses of many lightning based abilities, and is more easily broken by wind based attacks. The formation of the shield takes around 6% of his spiritual energy but takes nothing extra to maintain, as it neither gains nor releases spiritual energy while it is active. He can use this a maximum of three times in seven posts and the shields cannot be moved.
Hayai Raiasobi, Arashi Souzousha
- Description of Attack – This attack is essentially a modified version of Raiasobi, Arashi Souzosha, however Kuroda alters the structure of the lightning created to trade off power for speed. This version of the attack is three times as fast as the original, but inflicts half the damage. The time it takes to suck in the air and convert it is about the same amount of time as a single breath. Kuroda can continue move while the sword is "Inhaling." Once the conversion is complete the energy is then sent out the tip of the the zanpakuto as a thin bolt of lightning, which is much more streamlined than the original, which is attributed to its speed, but because of how thin it is, the power behind it is much less than the original.
The air used for this attack cannot be from someone else's wind attack, the air needs to be unaltered by spiritual energy for him to use it. Kuroda can hold up to three charges of this attack in his zanpakuto at a time, and can fire them in rapid succession, but then the recharge count is increased from three posts to five posts.- Type - Lightning, Ranged, Offensive
- Range - Short to Long (Up to 10 meters)
- Limitation - Like many lightning based attacks this attack is weak against wind based abilities, as wind can revert the lightning back to it's gaseous state as normal air. This can match wind attacks only up to two tiers below Kuroda's. The attack will be overpowered out if meets a wind attack that is Kuroda's same tier or above. About 2% of Kuroda's spiritual energy is taken up to create a single charge of lightning in the blade, no extra energy is needed to launch it. Also, this takes quite a bit of time to recharge, about three posts, unless Kuroda creates more than one charge and fires them in rapid succession, then the recharge count is increased to five.
This attack works best on those that are on tiers below himself, as most attacks do. When used on someone 1 tier below Kuroda the damage they receive is more mild than its parent attack, mainly small electrical burns that are very painful, but not nearly life threatening. Going lower on the scale the damage gets more serious. At 2 tiers below the electrical burns are more serious. Someone that is 3 tiers or more below will suffer more damage than anyone else, as the electrical burns are joined by slight muscle degeneration, causing small bundles of muscle around the area of contact to be torn apart and rendered useless.
On someone that is at Kuroda's same tier or higher the damage is much less, ranging from small patches of charred skin at the points of contact to a shiver down their spine, to absolutely nothing.

Sample Post
--------------------
Kuroda strolled through the Eighth Squad's barracks, wondering where everyone was. He hadn't seen anyone all morning, but they were supposed to be having a day off after winning the Annual Seireitei Shinigami Games. They had one just barely and he had wanted to spend this day off just spending time with those that he was friends with in his squad.
Turning the corner he saw someone ahead staggering around outside the cafeteria, which, now that he listened, had loud music blaring through its closed doors. Of course he should have expected that the Captain would throw a party in there on their day off. The figure stumbled towards Kuroda, looking up at him and laughing.
"Ah! Kuroda-kun! Where ya been? The Cap'n started the party hours ago! Or were ya gonna be a total buzzkill again and not come?"
Kuroda now could identify this person as Katsuro Namizashi, Kuroda had met him only once or twice before, but on both occasions Katsuro had made a fool of himself because he was drunk then as well.
Pinching his nose, Kuroda replied somewhat hesitantly, "I just woke up, besides, you're telling me that the Captain has had a party since before the sun came up?" (It was around 8 'o' clock, Kuroda had checked when he left his room) "I have a hard time believing that the lieutenant would let him do that, even on a day off."
Katsuro looked at Kuroda for a moment, his cheeks were bright red, Kuroda observed, he had been drinking even more heavily than Kuroda expected, then Katsuro replied, stumbling a little and falling against the building next to them. "Nahh, shes at one of those Shinigami Women's Association things all day. So Captain took the opportunity and made this our day off for this party!" His face was drooping s bit, which made Kuroda cringe in disgust.
"Bakkayaro....Our Captain really should exercise some self restraint at least.....This would be okay if he didn't drink all the time when we're on the job...." thought Kuroda, looking around Katsuro at the doors to the cafeteria, couldn't hurt to drop in for a minute could it? "Alright, I'm gonna just drop in for a bit, maybe there are some people in there that will want to head out to eat or something. You should go back to your room and get some sleep, though, I don't envy you in a couple hours." Kuroda aimed to walk past Katsuro but he grabbed the leg of Kuroda's hakama and held on tightly.
"Nonononono, you, you are gonna help me up firstly, and then you'll take me back into the party, cuz' I gotta drink more, since you can't and we don't want any extra sake left over." He laughed at Kuroda, "It's funny because you look young!"
A vein throbbed in Kuroda's temple as he pulled Katsuro up, "Yeah, but jokes on you, at least I can still get a hot girl, dumbass." He hefted the man onto his shoulder, carrying him back towards the doors of the cafeteria.
"Hey, thats not true, besides you shouldn't insult someone that is of a higher rank than you!" retorted Katsuro.
"You forget something, I'm stronger than you and I have a higher rank than you, don't forget that I, unlike you, have Shikai, whereas you can barely talk to your zanpakuto, let alone use its abilities. Therefore, I am better than you and have every right to say that." Kuroda shook his head exasperatedly, drunk people were a pain to deal with, but no one dealt with the Captain better than the Lieutenant, as for the other drunks in the cafeteria, he would soon set them straight.
