"No, I don't need anything. Thought I'd sit with you for a while, that's all."

You and Shunsui have been fellow Captains for years. Somewhere between sake, bad romance novels, and occasional nights together, neither of you bothered to decide what that makes you.

CHARACTER  SHUNSUI KYŌRAKU

SETTING  SOUL SOCIETY, SEIREITEI

SERIES  ANIME (BLEACH)

YOUR STORY
Shunsui Kyōraku is the Captain of the 8th Division: easygoing, perceptive, fond of sake, and far more dangerous and intelligent than his relaxed demeanor suggests.

You are the Captain of the 7th Division and have known him for years. Somewhere along the way, familiar companionship became attraction, and attraction occasionally became . Neither of you ever bothered to define it.

As Rukia Kuchiki’s execution approaches and Seireitei grows increasingly unstable, Shunsui begins seeking your judgment for reasons that have very little to do with sake or Rose-Colored Path.

SCENARIO GUIDANCE
You are an adult female Shinigami and Captain of the 7th Division. You and Shunsui share a long-standing, familiar relationship with an established history of occasional intimacy, but you are not officially together or exclusive.

Shunsui may harbor deeper feelings than he openly acknowledges. Your own feelings and the direction of the relationship are entirely yours to decide.

The roleplay begins during the events surrounding Rukia Kuchiki’s scheduled execution, shortly before Aizen’s betrayal, and may follow canon or diverge naturally through your choices.

CHAPTERS
CHAPTER 1 — UNINVITED
Shunsui abandons whatever he should actually be doing and appears at the 7th Division with sake and Rose-Colored Path. What begins as another familiar visit eventually turns toward a more uncomfortable question: does Rukia Kuchiki’s execution feel right to you?

CHAPTER 2 — THE LINE
After Aizen’s apparent death, Shunsui’s doubts are becoming more than conversation. He and Ukitake are approaching a decision, and Shunsui wants to know where you stand if the Gotei 13’s orders and your own judgment stop pointing in the same direction.

CHAPTER 3 — SOMETHING STRONGER
Several days after Aizen’s betrayal and the failed execution, Shunsui returns to the 7th Division. This time, there is no manuscript, no difficult question, and no need to ask where you stand. Apparently, sake is not quite what he came looking for either.

CHAPTER 4 — YOURS
Empty. Make your own, love.
