Bleach: Lull: Patch

Fic post from my archive.

Patch

Renji gets an offer and wibbles hesitates over it; Byakuya pounds talks some sense into him. Drama, I-3

Renji liked to think that he stayed alert for anything, even when he was at home.

Anything, however, didn't usually include a tiny brat of a fellow vice-captain landing on his shoulders and pounding him on the head

Hee~

I approve of Byakuya's methods, oh yes.

Renji: *sour look* I've heard about you.

*grinning*

Bwahahahaha!
[laughs and claps delightedly]
oh, gods--my chest hurts too much for me to be jumping around like an excited school girl! ^___^

*pats back, gingerly*

Good you liked it! I'm having fun with these characters.

OMFG!! *sparkles* OMFG! *fangirls* *sparkles some more for good measure*

It is so them. Renji would so say no to a promotion if he think he hasn't reached the level of his captain, and Byakuya would so nominate Renji because he think Renji is right for the job (and he would defeinitely find the weirded out look amusing). And absolutely love the other captains (and their vice captains). Perfect!

and being the Byakuya/Renji fangirl that I am, I see m/m subtext.

*grinning* Thank you, my dear!

Though you're going to be disappointed in the romance angle. The interaction between these two says intense, but the romance is purely Rukia-Renji.

Renji keeps telling me that B/R would work, but I think that's just his kinks speaking, several of which he inherited from me. It's the hair. I'd write it... if I could just think of a vaguely plausible occasion.

Renji spent the next day shooting thoroughly weirded out looks at his captain. It was hard to tell for sure, but he thought Kuchiki-taichou was amused by it.

Ahaha, dude. I can so picture Renji's weirded-out-suspicious-wut-are-you-up-to looks oh so very well and it cracks me up. Loooooove for this. I'm a sucker for Byakuya-Renji interaction, slash or no.

Love Yachiru's nickname for Renji as well.

♥ you.

*grins* Thank you!

They are so much fun together, aren't they? *dotes on them*

*smiling* Byakyua is great fun to write.

*tips head* The requirement is to achieve bankai, which Renji has. He doesn't have Byakuya's strength and experience, of course--the reason, no doubt, that Byakyua won their fight.
