FIC: Life's little ironies (Bleach, HitsuMatsu)
Second birthday-fic-post!
So, I recently got back into my Bleach fandom, and become completely infatuated with Toshiro Hitsugaya and Rangiku Matsumoto, the Captain/Lieutenant team of Tenth Division. Something about them being such opposites, with such a bond of complete and utter trust. I really think that if Toshiro said he had to go to Hell, Rangiku would simply ask who was bringing the handbasket, and would there be room for some bottles of sake for the trip?
Yes, I know that Hitsugaya looks 13, but if you read the manga carefully, he's 40-50 minimum. That puts him over the age of consent in every country I know of.
I've been tapping this out during odd moments at work; just trying to get my feet wet with the ship. I thought about trying the a-z challenge from a Naruto fic I read, and I've got a precis for all the letters except E. So that's next, in between finishing an FMP fic and working on a couple of Heroes.
TITLE: Life's little ironies
FANDOM/PAIRING: Bleach; HitsuMatsu
SPOILERS: Up to the beginning of the Winter War, I guess?
RATING: PG
DISCLAIMER: So not mine. So don't sue.
SUMMARY: Ten ironic things about Hitsumatsu and Matsumoto's relationship - past, present, & future.
1. In background and temperament, they are the most mismatched couple among all the Captains and Lieutenants, but they have a deeper and tighter bond than any of the others except the two father/daughter combinations (and no one's quite sure about Mayuri and Nemu).
2. If slipped a truth serum between becoming the Taichou of the Tenth and the Winter War, Hitsuguya would have admitted that he loves Hinamori more than anyone in the world - but Matsumoto is the only one he trusts unconditionally.
3. Rangiku possesses the most infamous breasts in soul society. But she wound up with a guy who can look at them and be genuinely bored.
4. Hitsuguya can be faced and/or smothered by his lieutenant's bosom and not even blink. But the first time he saw her in that high school uniform, he nearly swallowed his tongue.
Who the #$%^ cared about her chest - why hadn't someone warned him about her LEGS?!
5. The only two people to figure out that Toshiro and Rangiku were in love before they did, were Gin and Orihime. Funnily enough, neither of them ever told Aizen for the exact same reason - it was family business, and Aizen didn't count.
6. Matsumoto has been approached, either jokingly or seriously, by every straight man in the Gotei 13 command structure at one point or another (including Aizen, and isn't she glad she turned him down!). But in her entire lifetime, she will only ever go to bed with one Lieutenant (Gin) and one Captain.
7. Toshiro will never grow tall enough to look down at Rangiku. But he's found that being exactly eye-to-eye with her has far more advantages, anyway.
8. SHE likes to use HIS chest as a pillow.
9. Despite the fact that Rangiku is one of the biggest gossips in Soul Society, and regularly gets drunk with most of the others, no one has ever guessed that she joyfully deflowered her adorable Taichou almost twenty years ago. Not only that, but they've repeated the act almost every night since. And the occasional morning quickie. And she has a perfect record of seducing him on the office couch as long as the paperwork's finished. Well, except for that one time - but he WOULD have said yes if #$@*!^ Aizen hadn't chosen that very minute to try invading! She's going to have to admit to it soon, though; she's already talked her way out of three sake sessions, no way is she going to be able to put everyone off for as long as Uohana is insisting she give up alcohol. And Toshiro thinks they really should get married now anyway.
10. The reason so few people are born directly into Soul Society has to do with a peculiarity about how it's citizens mature - all the females are generally fertile as soon as they start menses, but males are sterile until they're at least 500 years old.
Trust Hitsuguya to be even more precocious in that area than he was in achieving bankai.
