Being carried in his arms, she grew sleepy. He was warm. As they walked, she fiddled with the buttons on his trench coat. She nuzzled her head against him. This was nice, him carrying her. He smelled nice. Slowly, Jinx's eyes closed and then next time she opened them she was being moved so he could get his keys. She was actually startled by him, fidgeting in his arms. Before she could throw herself away from him, she remembered who he was and what had happened. Calming down, she relaxed back against him. Watching him kick off his shoes, to follow suit, she slipped off her platformed boots and they fell to the ground with a loud thud. They were both Japanese. It was a cultural thing ( ... )

Jushirou came into the foyer with a serious look on his face. When he saw his friend and the girl he had told him about over the phone and his look softened a bit. One so young...she seemed as weak as Shunsui had made it sound. The soup and tea were still cooking though, but for now they could make her comgortable.

"I've set up a bed on the couch in the living room. You can take her in there," he said softly, his voice quiet. He couldn't help but be reminded of how the Ainu found him in his childhood...a stray brought in from the cruel world outside.

He gave her a polite bow, though, remembering his manners. "I am Jushirou Sogyo, welcome to my home."

Leave it to Jushirou to think of everything. He shot the man a grateful smile along with a nod of compliance. He knew Jushirou had such a soft spot for young ones, as well... it was just the trace of something else in the man's movements that worried Shunsui a little. He was allowed to worry, wasn't he?

Now he had to worry about getting Jinx settled in. Having Jinx in his room would have made her easier to watch over, but Shunsui imagined that would come off as entirely improper to the rest of the world.

With the first thing Jushirou ever said to her, Jinx felt a wave of disappointment. He had set up a bed on the couch in the living room. It was a nice offering, a good place for her to rest. But she had been looking forward to sleeping in a bed with Shunsui, pressed against the warm body of a man. Blushing, she tried to hide her sigh of disappointment. Maybe she could play the card of being too frightened to be alone. Then again, it may have been best with the nightmares she was having. Yet she may get the urge to run away in the middle of the night, to go on the search for Gin ( ... )

"There is no need to thank me, signorina. I would not turn away anyone in need," Jushirou said without a stutter, tactfully ignoring Jinx's statement to Shunsui. If that was what they thought was best, he wouldn't stop it, but...well, he hoped Shunsui knew better than to bed a distressed could-be-teenager. Then again...

He shook the thoughts from his head and went back to reality with a gentle smile. "There is soup currently on the stove. It's not quite ready, but will be soon. I have prepared some tea as well...a special blend I designed myself," he said in that same soft tone, stepping aside and directing them into the house.

"If you like, I'll sit up with you in the living room" Shunsui assured Jinx. ...Really, he knew better than to make a move on someone when they'd been in the emergency room all evening. For once, Shunsui's motives were actually fairly premeditated and reasonable.

He was sure Jinx needed the company, and the way she'd gone into various spells of distress so far this evening, Shunsui guessed getting through the night in a strange house would be difficult. ...At the same time, Shunsui knew how trusting Jushirou could be when it came to young people. He had a tendency to underestimate them when he assumed their innocence. There was a portion of Shunsui that wanted to be able to keep track of Jinx's movements for Jushirou's sake. As quickly as he was getting attached to Jinx, he knew it was dangerous on principle.

"Jushirou's tea is the best~" Shunsui smiled. "It comes straight from Japan. He owns an import store, you see" He explained to Jinx.

"Soup and tea..." she mumbled, getting a sleepy smile across her lips. Food would be very nice. Maybe she would not have enough time to sit down and drink tea before she passed out, but that did sound incredibly nice. If she could stay to hunt for Gin all those hours, then one more would not hurt to get something into her stomach and possibly take a shower. Taking a quick glance down at herself, her clothes had dried blood on them, her skin was probably a shade darker just because of the dirt and she had not washed her hair since Wednesday. A warm shower did sound nice, since they paid their gas bill.

Silently, she began to drift off again in his arms, but was shook awake again by Shinsui's decline of her sleeping in his bed. Narrowing her eyes, she thought to herself damn. "I would like that..." Maybe he was gay. Looking back and forth between the two men, she would not be entirely surprised. The notion was pushed just a bit further as Shunsui began to glorify his companion's tea. Sighing, actually disappointed, she nodded. "That ( ... )

"Of course," Jushirou answered with no hesitation at all. She looked like she needed it, after all. "So long as you are in need, my home is yours. You are welcome to whatever it is you need. Food, a place to sleep, as well as anything else," Jushirou answered with a soft grin. He didn't have a problem with Shunsui staying with the girl, really...he knew better than to second guess his friend after that exchange.

Jushirou made his way into the kitchen then, fetching all the things he needed. A tray, a bowl for the soup, and a mug of tea. All warm and fresh, hopefully would do Jinx well. He couldn't account for her appetite, but if she had gone as long without food, the soup would be the least abrasive thing to her system.

"If there's anything you need at all, don't be afraid to ask," he said with that same soft smile he gave her before.

"A shower and you'll feel much better" Shunsui assured Jinx, rubbing her back lightly as she pressed into him. "Will you need any help at all?" He asked her, it was supposed to be innocently.

The other thought running though his head was that Jushirou direly deserved a fertile woman to produce him children. He would be an amazing father.

With such an offer, Jinx was slightly confused. How could someone be this nice and still alive in this city? Looking at both the men, they seemed to be able to back themselves up on just about anything. If Jinx was this polite, she would be dead in a week. And now this man, Jushirou, was inviting her into his home and telling her she was welcome to anything, that his home was hers. Part of her wanted to jump up and yell I'm a Monacello assassin! I kill people for a living and there is always the chance I may slit your throat in your sleep! Well, for the time being, she was not feeling any bit of violence toward these men. They were kind to her, gentle with no intentions of harming her... yet ( ... )

"The bathroom is down the hall," Jushirou directed with a motion in the direction of said hall. "Second door on the left...and if you need something to wear, I have plenty of kimono spare," he added, still smiling. He halfway wondered what her impression of all this hospitality must be. Perhaps a bit overwhelming...but she had thanked them ( ... )

Shunsui stayed close to Jinx, just in case she needed an arm to grab on the way to the shower. Right now he was happy because Ukitake was so happy. Reggio Calabria hadn't changed his heart one bit, and Shunsui was glad.

"I wonder, Jinx, have you ever worn a kimono before?" Shunsui asked. While for the two older men, it was something they were so used to being able to throw on and go, the clothing seemed to baffle most people who weren't from Japan. Of course, he'd volunteer to help.

"Down the hall..." she repeated, staggering down the hallway and trying not to use the walls so much for support. "Kimono... okay..." She was tired, her stomach ached terribly and her leg shot pain through her body every time she stepped on it. Trembling, she slowly made it to the second door on the left with Shunsui following close behind. If this were a normal situation, she would have been happy having him follow her, even into the shower if he wanted, but right now she was focused on being clean ( ... )

Shunsui watched her with concern. The sooner she was showered, fed and to sleep the better.

Then he was also envious of the supernatural carrying capacity of the brassiere. He remembered his manners and turned away. "Sure, I think we can get it to be comfortable if we tie up the length a little bit" He said.

Noticing that he turned away from her, she gave a light smile. The politeness of these men still astounded her. To invite a random girl off the streets into their home? It was either hospitality or stupidity. Leaning against the counter top for balance, she removed her leggings. It was always pathetic to her when she had to use something else for balance. She could go tightrope walking on a daily basis, but right now just standing was a little too much. Taking her time, she folded her leggings and set them on the counter as well. Now was the question to remove the rest of her clothing in front of him, even if he did have his back turned. Not being able to answer that yet, she began to unwrap the bandage from her leg; she would put it back once she was showered ( ... )

After Jinx was soundly in the shower, Shunsui went to find Jushirou, see if he needed a hand, and go about finding something for Jinx to wear. He kept a close ear out in case Jinx needed anything.

"I hope it's all right to keep you up this late, Jushirou" Shunsui asked, wandering into the kitchen to check on his host and putting a hand on Jushirou's shoulder. "I'm sorry for bringing in someone without prior notice or permission. Thank you" He said, glancing down as he suddenly became very serious.
