Closed RP: A present for Byakuya~!

[perpetual_smile]

Gin waited outside the Great Hall, a little pensive behind his usual smile. Byakuya seemed to be having some very strange mood swings lately, and he rather hoped that Byakuya was still on the 'happy' side. It would be nice, anyway. It might be worth investigating later, what sort of curious magic had caused Byakuya's sudden change of character

Following Morfin's underwear announcement on WART radio, Byakuya headed to the Great Hall in case someone actually found his missing pair. Not that he planned to ever wear whatever turned up -- mostly he was curious. When he noticed Gin, he smiled and waved very cheerfully.

[perpetual_smile]

Gin returned the wave, just as cheerily. "Oh, hello, Byakuya. Pleasant day, isn't it?"

From the smile, Byakuya was definitely still in his no-doubt magically-induced state of happiness. Gin hoped it stayed that way for a while, however it had happened to come about.

"You know, curiously enough, I wondered if you might be missing something..."

[noble_shinigami]

"Hello~. It's a very pleasant day," he said as he stopped beside Gin. If anything, Byakuya seemed to get a little more mellow as the day wore on, and no less happy. He watched Gin expectantly. "Oh? Do you have something?"

[perpetual_smile]

"Oh, something. Would you like to try to guess?"

Since Byakuya was in such a good mood after all, Gin took this opportunity to be a little playful. "I think it should be fairly obvious, but if you can't guess, I may have to keep it~."

[noble_shinigami]

"Well, there was that school-wide announcement..." He leaned in close, briefly invading Gin's personal space this time, and evidently not concerned at all. His smile didn't change. "You have my underwear?"

[perpetual_smile]

The invasion of personal space was not unwelcome. Perhaps Byakuya was in a very good mood again, Gin wondered.

"Not that you'll really need them anytime soon," he smiled, moving up so that the two shinigami were only a few inches apart.

[noble_shinigami]

"Oh? Are you going to wash them for me? How nice of you." He sounded uncertain, but the feeling quickly passed. He could remember some of the recent happenings, such as waking with Gin in what he presently thought was a positively amusing position, any anger long since quelled by the effects of the potioned tea.

He whispered conspiratorially, "I don't actually care for underwear much." And looked pleased with himself.

[perpetual_smile]

This was supposed to be simply returning Byakuya's clothing and having a few jibes at his expense. Gin tried again. "Oho? Does that explain why you were so eager to be rid of them last night then?" he whispered back, grinning.

They were just outside of the Great Hall, after all. It wouldn't do to pin Byakuya against the wall and have his way with him again (unhindered by troublesome undergarments).

[noble_shinigami]

The sexual innuendo wasn't causing the kind of reaction it would have before, exactly, though Gin's remark made him feel chagrined. "That was your fault. You made them uncomfortably tight."

Had he meant to say that? Well, it didn't matter very much. He smiled, no longer even embarrassed. It was difficult to feel anything but elation and excessive cheerfulness, regardless of what they discussed.

[perpetual_smile]

"Did I? How curious. And I don't think that's ever happened before, has it." It wasn't a question. After all, if Gin had ever thought it had, there would likely have been some motions made towards Byakuya many years ago. Although, in the light of recent events, a few of his little remarks over the past years seemed somewhat more suspect...

"And you're very unusually cheerful today. I take it you enjoyed yourself?"

[noble_shinigami]

He looked almost comically baffled. "You know, I don't recall. It's never seemed very important. Bodies are funny things, aren't they?"

Out of the blue, he stated, "I like you. I kind of like everyone today. I feel funny." He was beaming, not realising he was beginning to sound incoherent.

"Of course I enjoyed myself." He hoped he had, anyway. He was pretty sure he had. Did it matter even if he hadn't? He felt so happy. "Did you? I wonder if you're as bruised as I am."

[perpetual_smile]

Incoherent Byakuya was very funny to see, the normally cool and occasionally acerbic Captain Kuchiki suddenly acting like he'd had a few too many cups of sake. Gin still wasn't quite sure what to think of this strangeness -- well, beyond having taken advantage of it that one night. It was such a change.

"Oh, I did enjoy myself terribly," Gin smiled, silently in agreement with Byakuya's previous statement that bodies were, indeed, funny things. "A little bruised in the most interesting places," he confided, "But not quite as badly off as you seemed to be this morning. My apologies~."

[noble_shinigami]

((sigh, I hate being disconnected.))

"I'd like to bruise you... more," he happily informed Gin, his tone not threatening in the least. He was noticeably swaying, not drunkenly, but with a sort of pent-up, restless energy. Or he needed to relieve himself. Standing together as they were, it took only minimal effort to close the distance between them, and the fingertips of his right hand brushed Gin's neck a moment before his breath did, the barest touch of his lips against Gin's skin. "And I could."

He was already gone and standing a little farther away nearly before the sensation could register, and looking as if he hadn't moved. He smiled charmingly, and couldn't help but admit, "Oh, that was fun."

[perpetual_smile]

((Such abuse of shinigami abilities~.))

Gin briefly considered the situation. And then just as instantaneously, he was standing behind Byakuya, using one of the other shinigami's favored techniques. He leaned over to speak very softly in Byakuya's ear. "You're welcome to try. If you won't regret that later, too~."

And then, mirroring Byakuya's actions, he was back a couple paces away again, although his smile was not quite so charming. "We could be having much more fun right now, you know."

[noble_shinigami]

No wonder Urahara and Yoruichi had been together for so long, if gossip could be believed. They undoubtedly played the kinkiest shunpo games ever, to keep things interesting. Perhaps there were many shinigami who abused their abilities to amuse themselves? It was a novel concept to Byakuya.

"But I sa~aw you move. You're slow, Gin." He was lying, but didn't let on. "What's more fun than this?" Byakuya appeared behind Gin this time, got him in a headlock and messed up his hair, ever so amused by everything. And he didn't let go.

[perpetual_smile]

Deciding that he preferred the overly amorous Byakuya to the playful version, Gin said pleasantly from within the headlock, "I can think of a few things. Do you suddenly have so little imagination, Byakuya?"

Gin simply backed up, fast, slamming Byakuya between his back and one of the stone walls of the corridor. Not only was there the chance Byakuya might let go, there was also a good chance he'd figure out if Byakuya was having more 'fun' than he was letting on.
