[open] death made visible
WHO: Kuchiki Rukia, open to all!
WHERE: around Tembra
WHAT: help the newb
WHEN: January
WARNINGS: none at this time
One would have expected Rukia to have learned a lesson or two about approaching glowing orbs. Especially absent the understanding of how she came to this place to begin with — a place more sparsely populated than the endless dunes of Hueco Mundo, in spite of its endless flora, inviting in its vibrancy. Some of her closest companions might have been the type to grab at it immediately, preferring to keep any danger in their possession and grasp rather than leave it to their enemies for the taking, but Rukia isn't normally so foolish. Too many lessons learned the hard way.
Still, as her mind and pulse alike race — Where is she? Where are the others? Why can't she feel the spiritual pressure of any of her comrades? Is Ichigo safe? — Rukia blinks, suddenly finding her fingers wrapped around the smooth, cool surface of the orb.
Everything changes.
Rukia staggers away from the orb with a stuttered breath, eyes roving in every direction as her hands return to the place they belong, tight around hilt and scabbard. She's been given an explanation, knowledge settled neatly in every corner of her memory, synapses firing in new directions. But Rukia has long since learned that reality has a way of being distorted.
With a distant drip of water ringing in her ears, Rukia pulls her lower lip between her teeth, worrying at the skin as she turns to head in the direction of the nearest spiritual energy she can sense.

With a quick exhale, Rukia lifts her chin and grins. "Anything you've been working on? I might look small, but I can carry more than my fair share."

He laughs a little at Rukia's eagerness to do something, not that he can blame her. "I'll bet that sword's more than just for show too," he grins back. "If you ever need a sparring partner, I'm always up for some practice with my sai. As for general work... really wasn't up to much at the moment. Guess there's always stuff to clear out or move though."
no subject
Maybe that same truth will hold here in Temba.
"I don't think I've sparred against someone wielding sai for some time, but it sounds like a fun challenge, Raphael-san," Rukia grins, before quickly holding up her hands. "Ah, don't let me pull you into work if you were relaxing. I don't want to be a burden. You've already been very generous with your time."
no subject
It was kind of nice having the interruption. His thoughts usually turn towards home, so he's always glad for a distraction. "I'm sure you'll find someone who's got something to do though. Everyone's pretty cool so if you have any more questions, people will try to answer 'em."
