[It's always something. Hollows running amok. That ten-page surprise essay due tomorrow that really wouldn't have been much of a surprise if he'd actually been in class the day it was assigned. Soul Society having another meltdown. An unforeseen family crisis

[Female!Zangetsu has sensed the new version of her master enter the Nexus, so she's come to make sure he learns about this place.]

Hello, Kurosaki.

[1stguardian]

[Although he doesn't jump, her presence startles him nonetheless.]

Zangetsu?

[moonlight_blade]

[She gives him a small nod.]

Yes, though I'm not the one you're familiar with.

[1stguardian]

I don't- How is that possible?

[callmekittysama]

[ ... Totally trolling pretending he doesn't know how to speak for the time being. ]

Meow.

[ Circles Ichigo's ankles, arching his back and getting fluff everywhere. Mwahaha. ]

[1stguardian]

[Oh look, a cat! Being able to sense reiatsu properly might come in handy here. Too bad Ichigo can't.]

You lost too, huh?

[Crouching down, he holds out his hand, intending to stroke it over the cat's back.]

[callmekittysama]

[ Purring approvingly (Yes, that's right ... come closer, Kurosaki) Aizen meows loudly, rising on his hind legs to pat Ichigo's hand. Let him up!

Aren't his eyes a wonderful shade of emerald? Just like the hilt of someone's sword ... Not as if this dog-turned-boy will notice. ]

[1stguardian]

You want me to pick you up?

[So it's a friendly cat, huh? He hasn't had much experience with animals, he never had a pet, but he knows how to pick up a cat. Which he does, gently, and holds the cat against his chest. If there's anything odd about the cat, he doesn't notice, mistaking the eyes for just another part of what makes up a rather beautiful animal.]

Are you hungry? There's got to be something to eat around here. Wherever here is.

[holyfight]

Ah-? A new Kurosaki-kun? Or have you been here a while?

[1stguardian]

Inoue? I- think I'm new.

[holyfight]

Well, if this is your first time here, then you are!

You're in the Nexus now!

[1stguardian]

And that's a good thing, right?

[thedeadprincess]

A new one, a new one!

[1stguardian]

[And for a moment, all he can do is stare.]

I-Inoue?

[thedeadprincess]

[ And anger severs her amusement immediately. These bipolar hollows - ]

No!

[1stguardian]

[He lifts his hands, palms outward, backpedaling from that assumption fast.]

Sorry, I didn't- I mean, okay. Listen, I'm sorry. That was rude of me.

[holeheart]

Well, look what we have here

[have a Hollow, though he's dressed in street clothes]

Did someone give you the spiel yet, newbie?

[1stguardian]

[Oh, what the hell? For a moment, Ichigo just stares. He knew this was coming. He just... didn't actually believe it.]

Nexus and wishing and multiples? If that's the spiel you mean, I got it.

[holeheart]

[he just keeps grinning that terrible smile and he chuckles a bit!]

You look so surprised ta see me! If you already got the information, why make that face? Hehehehe. [he gets a little closer, testing him a bit with tendrils of reiatsu] But you're not mine, so don't panic.

[1stguardian]

[Huffing in annoyance, Ichigo scowls and crosses his arms over his chest. His own reiatsu's too hard to control completely, but he tries to keep it as calm as possible.]

Having the information isn't the same as experiencing it.

[He taps a finger against his forehead.]

I know. Mine's still up here. I don't know why, if all the other Hollows are free, but... [He shrugs.]
