Summary: goodbye

[He'd arrived a little earlier considering he wanted to be there before she was. Seated on the ground and looking out to the city, his memories of these place really were fond. A lot fonder than anything he could remember in the past 100 years.

That in itself was kind of sad, now that he thought about it.]

Ah, and here I had no idea you were so well traveled...I'm impressed!

[He starts off walking again.]

What were they like?

[payback]

Haha... [Almost a sore subject, but... a lot of those things are far away now, aren't they?]

They were pretty bad. Worse than here by a lot! This is the best place I've ever been.

[She walks a little closer, still pacing him.] What's your world like?

[Tell him all about Mayuri, Rin.]

Really? That's a shame... I guess I got lucky then.

Mine though...well, it's like a big city for all of the souls of the departed, divided up into sections. Most people who die end up in the poorer areas and don't last very long, end up reincarnating. That's where I grew up.

Then you have the Shinigami, a military force who work in cooperation with the governing heads of the city. [Ah, the central 46...it seems like so long ago now that he helped Aizen kill all of them.] They live closer to the center of the city. I was one of the thirteen squad captains, y'know! Pretty important position. I had an entire division under my command. A lieutenant too.

[OK, he's being weird, but she can't pass up the chance to take a poke at him:]

That poor guy!

Funny; I've had so many people say that. Can't imagine why!

[heh]
