[Log] Story time!
Who: Ichigo, Della, and Glorfindel
What: Talking about Ichigo's past and powers
Where: Quiet car, second level
When: Grasshopper 16
Warnings: Discussions of war, massive bodily injury, death
Having gotten some tea and water and carrot cupcakes together, Ichigo waited for Glorfindel and Della to arrive. He knew some of what he was going to say would be a repeat for Della, but he planned to go into more detail for them both. And while he was a little worried how they would look at him after hearing it all, after the mission, he felt like he could trust the two of them to really know him. At least he'd already managed to go get his new little kitten, and it was sleeping on his lap.

"I gotta agree with blondie on this one, couldn't hurt to try. Worst that could happen is you find out it doesn't work, and you both move on."
Speaking of moving on, on with the story. "I won't accept anything less than a happy ending with the kid and your friend, by the way."

"Eventually, Ishida confronted me. He hated me on sight because he knew I was acting as the soul reaper for the town. He's got plenty of reason to hate soul reapers, since he's a Quincy. Also, his grandfather had been abducted and experimented on by a soul reaper who is the absolute worst ever. But he's still a captain because he gets results.
"Anyway, back on topic with Ishida. He challenged me to a competition to see who could take out more hollows. He had this tablet, hollow bait, and he crushed it. It went into the air and drew a bunch of hollows to town. Rukia got attacked but was able to defend herself somewhat. Chad got attacked, but couldn't see the hollows. Karin was close to him and could see them, so with her help he was able to start fighting back. And this is where Inoue comes back into the story.
"A bigger hollow went and was at the school. It attacked a few of our classmates, one of whom I used to take karate classes with when I was little named Tatsuki. Tatsuki and Inoue are best friends, and Tatsuki sees spirits as well. So she saw the hollow and tried to get Inoue to run. But instead she stayed. She wanted so badly to protect Tatsuki and fight the hollow, that the flower shaped hair pins she'd gotten from her brother transformed into these little fairies. Three of them can form a shield. Two of them she can use to heal. And one of them can attack. So she was able to beat the hollow at the school."

"Three things, one - please think about talking to Piccolo. Two - who is Ishida? And three - so in your world all souls go to this Soul Society? Do they stay there and become soul reapers? Wouldn't that cause there to eventually be more soul reapers than living humans?
"Ah, and a bonus fourth thing - You said Quincies hate Soul Reapers...what happens when Quincies die then?"

"What he said, but uh, doubled! Or else we'll quiz you later and it'll be super annoying." She finished with a grin, trying to keep it light.

"Ishida is...well, at first we were just classmates that didn't talk. Now? He's a close friend. If Mom hadn't been infected with hollow reiatsu and ended up marrying my dad, Ishida and I could have been brothers, because Mom was arranged to marry his dad.
"As for what happens to souls...well, it kind of depends. If you don't have any reiatsu, you don't feel hunger or thirst at all. So you just make your life the best you can depending on what district you live in. Outside of the soul reaper offices and barracks, and the Noble districts, it's...not great. There are 80 districts, and the higher you go the worse the conditions get. It's awful, and I can't do shit about it."
Ichigo sighed and frowned a little before shrugging. "As for Quincy souls? Far as I know, they've got their own secret enclave where they go and stay isolated. They really don't want anything to do with soul reapers, after all."

Brothers if their parents had married? Glorfindel was pretty sure genetics didn't work that way, but he wasn't going to be the one to have to explain how babies were made to the young human. He gave Della a look to see if she wanted to do it.
Glorfindel titled his head to the side. "So this Soul Society is the "Heaven" that is touted so highly amongst humans? Sounds...disappointing."
Honestly, Glorfindel didn't blame the Quincies if that was how the Soul Reapers treated the souls they 'saved' from the Hollows.

"I know after several different afterlives, and so far yours sounds the most.. organized." It was the most gentle way she could put it.

"Where was I on my history... Oh, yeah, the competition to see who could cut down more hollows. Apparently, I am a broken tap of reiatsu, because we started attracting larger and more powerful hollows, called Menos. We had to drive them back to their world, but I didn't know how to harness my reiatsu to move in the air yet. So we ended up strapping my sword to Ishida's head, dull side to his skull, of course. I channeled my reiatsu through the sword as much as I could, and he took that and put it into an arrow. Between the two of us we were strong enough to drive the Menos away."
